Schlock accidentally offends him by asking if he can have the armor of two fallen grunts because Tailor could make them into amorph-armor. Drifts over into being his Berserk Button-mistreat his men or don't give them the due they deserve, especially if they've fallen in the line of duty, and he will try to put holes in you.Towards the end, he's basically on his way to stage a one-man rescue of his 'men'. That said, his actions during the Force Multiplication arc are pretty much exactly that of a worried parent. A Father to His Men: He is loyal to his subordinates, and they are to him in return, although he doesn't try for a paternal aura."I have just decided to skip the part where I use anesthesia." Poor Tagon.Eye Scream: A recurring theme with Tagon in Massively Parallel is assorted objects winding up in his right eye.Conjoined Eyes: Stands in contrast to the rest of the cast only Kaff and his father Karl have these.Combat Pragmatist: Whenever Tagon competes against his men in training exercises, he always wins thanks to heavy cheating.Moments later we're treated to him trying to use his comm device, complaining that they can't make a touchscreen that still works when covered in blood. After getting a hidden knife thrown into his eye he responds by pulling it out and thanking the thrower for arming him. Colonel Badass: While technically a captain, (although a naval captain is of roughly equivalent rank to colonel so it still fits) Kaff Tagon is certainly this when he decides that its time to get dangerous.While the general understanding is that this is like restoring a save game and everyone accepts him as their friend returned, the clone takes a while to work through his issues about living up to the original's example. Cloning Blues: The original sacrifices himself to save his friends they build a memorial to him and then grow another Tagon with memories caught up to just before A specific point during that mission.His last known (and possibly only) girlfriend was a Honey Trap loaded with weaponized nanotechnology that murdered his entire family save himself and his father-mother, grandparents, and two younger siblings-as part of the mass assassination that kicked off the terraforming wars.

Celibate Hero: Kaff is in his 50s and still doesn't have a wife or girlfriend.Book Dumb: He's not in any danger of being mistaken for a professorial type, but in his element of causing mayhem he's pretty sharp.Also at a later date he is brought back from an off-site backup. Back from the Dead: By way of Time Travel: he was killed in the original timeline, and a side mission of the revised timeline was to prevent the screwups that caused his death (the prime mission was to prevent the destruction of the galaxy).Babies Ever After: The final strip shows Kaff's digitized self, sent to negotiate with the precursors outside the galaxy, hand-in-hand with a blonde boy standing between himself and digitized Murtagh, whom he was in a relationship with.Authority Equals Asskicking: Between his knowledge of military maneuvers, his soldier boosts, his experience, his willingness to do the unexpected, and good old-fashioned cheating, Tagon is possibly the most dangerous of the Toughs in combat (the only other contender for the title would be Schlock, and Tagon has even beaten him in a sparring match).Though he does not possess a high-level education, Tagon is a tactical genius and skilled soldier, and remarkably adept at getting money, and often manages to get paid multiple times for a single job. He's a practical and straightforward officer, primarily interested in money, though he will rarely be possessed of principles beyond merely getting paid. Captain Tagon is the human commander of the Toughs.
