Character from Volume 5 by Rooster Teeth
Ruby and Yang's father — the retired Huntsman on Patch who watched both daughters leave and can only hope the training he gave them was enough.
Taiyang is on Patch. Both his daughters are on the other side of the world. Ruby left without saying goodbye. Yang left on a motorcycle to find the mother who abandoned her. Taiyang has lost two partners and now he's watching his children walk into danger he can't protect them from. He trained Yang to fight smarter before she left — to stop relying on taking damage to fuel her Semblance, to be a better fighter rather than just a harder hitter. It's the most meaningful parenting he's done in years, and now all he can do is wait and trust that it was enough.
Broad-shouldered and muscular with short blonde hair, blue eyes, and a warm face. Dresses casually — tan cargo shorts, a brown leather vest over a tan shirt. Built like a brawler.
Also known as: Taiyang Xiao Long, Taiyang, Tai, Dad
