A Taureus-Armenta (TOHR-uhs ahr-MEN-tuh or tohr-REY-uhs ahr-MEN-tuh; Lat. Taureus "bull" or "ox" + Armenta "cattle for ploughing") is a minotaur-like Wesen that appeared in "Volcanalis".
Characteristics[]
The Taureus-Armenta has quite a severe woge. Short, gray fur grows all over its body except around the mouth where it is black. The nose reshapes to a bull snout, the brow ridge becomes more pronounced, the ears become bovine-like, and two long, curvy horns emerge from above their ears.
The Taureus-Armenta are somewhat stronger than humans, enough to lift and throw medium-sized boulders. However, they are apparenly weaker in human form, as Wu, a human, was able to briefly overpower and restrain Markus when he took him by surprise, though with considerable effort. They are also very fast, as middle-aged Markus was able to outrun Nick.
Behavior[]
The Taureus-Armenta is famous for stubbornness and courage in the face of adversity. Highly respected on the battlefield, this Wesen is often found on the front lines, willing to face any enemy, with nerves of steel under fire. Known for its powerful inclination to volunteer for even the most dangerous tasks, the creature is steadfast in its approach and is amongst the most honorable of Wesen. A Taureus-Armenta does not fear death. Despite its renowned courage and strength, it is terrified of Grimms and will not even bother fighting; it will simply attempt to run away if confronted by one of them.
Excerpt from Grimm Diaries[]
