Taurus (SG)

The stereotypical circus strongman, circus acrobat and circus sideshow who pulls tricks like smashing bricks over his head. If you have suspected that Taurus is any of those just by looking him, then you are right. However, suspecting him as double agent may be the last on the list. As Cobra's Ottoman Confederacy regional director, Varujan Ayvazyan recruits for the cause and receives secret funding funneled by Abdul Fakkadi to Destro's offers in Scotland. However, Ayvazyan was long ago recruited as a double-agent by Sgt. Slaughter, who gave him the codename Taurus. Taurus now works to undermine Cobra's public image by making terrorist strikes in Father Cobra's name, confirming the United States's label of Cobra as a terrorist organization. Although Father Cobra disapproves of Ayvazyan's methods, the Cobra surpreme commander has less and less control over Ayvazyan due to Father Cobra's isolation as a hounded fugitive in the US.

Taurus has a penchant for the scimitar and other exotic edged weapons, and delights in using them on victims in the service of Cobra, the US, or just his own twisted amusement.
