Tarasius

His first name is unknown but his story is still famous to this very day. Born in the 1930's Tarasius was an excellent leader. According to his legend he fought in the Korean War, which is where his supposed military experience comes from. In 1971 he was arrested and jailed for being part of the Northern Ireland Troubles. He was sent to one of Shackleville's prisons.

During his time in prison Tarasius organized other prisoners to revolt with him. The prisoners soon broke out and freed other prisoners. From there they met up with other criminals and began marching south.

The Malton Police Department sent Captain Luckwell to deal with the rebellion and met up with Tarasius and his men at South Blythville. Tarasius heavily outnumbering the police but was still under-equipped, defeated the better equipped but outnumbered police by jumping across adjacent buildings and sneaking up on them from behind. From there Tarasius and his men marched onto Barrville where they defeated the MPD's Captains Derryman and Keane.

In 1973 Tarasius saw his chance to escape north and made his way into Raines Hills where he defeated another MPD Captain, Captain Sheehan. For some reason, which most will proclaim Tarasius' biggest mistake, he turned around to Spicer Hills since his men still wanted to loot and plunder. His deal with the Irish to take him to Ireland fell through and he was soon surrounded by the MPD's Captains Hopping, Stockman, Veresmith, and Bowing.

Tarasius managed to break through their defense and made it all the way to Pennville but was intercepted by Captain Milton. Tarasius was shot during the battle and died. The police Captains were unable to find his body but were able to save nearly 300 police officers held prisoner. Tarasius' followers were usually shot on sight and some of the executions were filmed while they were happening in the streets. Those that did escape the battle made their way up into Lerwill Heights where they were supressed by Captain Farewell. Captain Farewell was proclaimed a hero while Milton was left uncredited.

Despite having a clear disadvantage, Tarasius is considered one of the greatest military leaders in Malton.
