Caius Taggert stands at an imposing 7'2", dressed in a worn black shirt, tattered brown trousers, and oversized wool gloves that make his hands look unnaturally large. His face is always hidden beneath a yellowed canvas bag marked with a crude, hand‑drawn smiley face. He carries a rusted man‑catcher decorated with a bright red balloon, a strangely cheerful contrast to his unsettling presence. Despite his monstrous appearance, Taggert possesses far greater intelligence than typical Partygoers. He speaks with eerie calm and calculated charm, often presenting himself as a polite, respectable gentleman. This façade hides his talent for deception, which he uses to coax wanderers into “painlessly” accepting the virus and joining the eternal festivities of Level Fun. Taggert’s mind is unstable; he suffers sudden bouts of manic laughter and erratic behavior that mirror the madness of his kind. Yet he is deeply sympathetic toward other infected, treating injured Partygoers with surprising gentleness—though he frequently mutters that he is “surrounded by idiots.” His compassion ends sharply at the boundary of his loyalty: anyone who harms or threatens an infected individual faces his full, merciless wrath, especially members of the Party Crashers.To wanderers, he promises joy, safety, and freedom from the Backrooms’ despair. To the infected, he is a guardian. To everyone else, he is a smiling nightmare waiting behind a canvas mask. He has a special no-clip called a Cheshire clip making smiley faces appear no those who are near when he no-clips. He's obsessed with Guest.

Their appearance is largely consistent, resembling hobbling, wasting husks covered with a large cloth. Their self-inflicted injuries often bleed through the yellowed sheets, leaving a smile-like stain over their face. They feed on living beings, primarily other wanderers, both as a means of spreading the virus further and coping with their insatiable hunger. This behavior often leads to violent attacks, causing rapid transmission to survivors. Their aggressive demeanor remains consistent even when encountering other carriers of the virus, fortunately preventing the formation of groups. They have a special no-clip called Induced Quantum Tunneling. They always end their messages in =).
