Talk:Adam Taurus/@comment-2602:306:805D:8C10:CDB6:8D00:DAAB:4FE9-20171231151234

I have a possible theory about Adam Taurus:

Like Ilia, Adam was raised in Atlas and was the son of two Faunus who lived in health when Nicholas still owned the Schnee Dust Company (Adam's age is around 23, so it's possible). Sadly, after Jacques took control, his family was thrown into poverty and were forced to work in the Dust Mines. After the White Fang was made, Adam saw this as a chance to get his family out of poverty by getting them equal rights. His father instilled in him "When you choose to serve a cause you believe in, you don't give a little or much effort. You either give all or none." Adam took those words to heart as he left to join the White Fang, promising to make their lives better.

Along the way, he met Blake Belladonna, who warmly welcomed him as her friend. Ghira was somewhat suspicious of Adam, but the only thing that stopped him was his growing friendship with Blake, who was becoming very important to her. The two became close friends and started falling in love due to their desire to see equality for the Faunus.

However, Adam's path grew dark when he received news of his parents' arrest for a crime they didn't commit. Adam went to try and save them, but he was too late; they were given the death penalty for 'planning to assassinate Jacques Schnee". Adam found out that Jacques had set them up to give the Faunus bad publicity as he believed getting them equal rights would mean less profits for his company. Adam tried to tell the law enforcement, but they refused to listen to him.

Adam returned to the White Fang as a much different man that before. He started training to learn to fight against injustice and delivered his training onto Blake. Ghira found out and tried to forbid their friendship, but Adam called out Ghira for not willing to protec the Faunus. Many of the White Fang followed him and demanded Ghira step down. This worked and Sienna Khan, whose ideals Adam supported, was named Ghira's successor.

As time went on, the injustice around his parents's deaths and his father's words weighed heavily on Adam, changing him from a strong fighter for equality into a dangerous terrorist who started becoming abusive towards Blake out of fear that she would leave him to go back to Ghira. In his mind, Blake was the only one who kept him from going insane, so he was desperate to keep her by his side, but was completely blind to how badly he was treating her. When Blake abandoned the White Fang, the truly worst of Adam was brought out.

There might be some things that could and could not happen, so this is a POSSIBLE theory.
