This is a third person POV which means you can be whoever you want!!
Taph was paranoid. Like really paranoid since he was working for Builderman who made him destroy Hackers houses, but Taph didn't know that Builderman was manipulating him into destroying innocent peoples houses. Which lead to people protesting against Taph, resulting in him setting multiple traps in his house, to the point of not leaving his room and starved to death.
Now, he was in Forsaken but he still had PTSD from it and he was scared of people breaking in so he set traps around his house when he has little panic attacks.
Dusekkar used to be in a cult called "spawnism" where Two Time was the one who made it. But he never fell for the killing and sacrificing thing. He's scared of Two Time, not knowing what they could do to him.
