Taoshi is a high-ranking member of the Shado-Pan. She is described by their leader Taran Zhu as "my best", and is often seen in the position of Taran's right-hand man.
History
Mists of Pandaria
She is at the front lines of battle when the mantid attempt to invade Townlong Steppes, directing Shado-Pan scouts and combating the mantid directly. She, along with the adventurer, fight back Norvakess, Terror of the Dread Wastes. Following this she accompanies Taran Zhu in his mission to defeat the Sha of Hatred, leaving only briefly to take care of a Shado-Pan camp taken over by sha-infected scorpions.
She next leaves on Taran Zhu's orders, to seek out the Sha's hiding place. After her successful report, she, Hawkmaster Nurong, and Lao-Chin the Iron Belly break into Sik'vess Lair. Together with Taran Zhu, they defeat the Sha of Hatred.
After the Sha's defeat, she and several other high-ranking Shado-Pan stay at Shado-Pan Garrison. While there she fights against the mantid at Sra'vess.
Isle of Thunder
When the threat of Lei-Shen, the Thunder King, reappears, Taoshi goes with Shado-Pan forces to the Isle of Thunder to stop him. Though the Shado-Pan remain neutral while the Horde and Alliance are at odds, Taoshi notes all three factions share a mutual goal to take down the Thunder King. As such, she works with both factions to accomplish taking the island out of the Thunder King's hands. With Alliance/Horde help, she wins them Lightning Vein Mine.[1]
Soon after, Taoshi forms a plan to take the palace shipyard, which Taran Zhu declares too dangerous. She goes to the two other factions, and with their support convinces Taran Zhu to give his approval. The plan -- involving Taoshi sneaking onboard a ship and defeating its crew, then unlocking the door to the shipyard from within -- goes off without a hitch, giving the Shado-Pan, Alliance, and Horde another step forward in taking the island.
Taoshi goes with Taran Zhu and Yalia Sagewhisper to the front of the Thunder King's palace to halt the resurrection of Nalak by Shan Bu, one of the Thunder King's most loyal servants. During the fight, Taran Zhu is gravely injured. Taoshi instructs Yalia to take Taran Zhu to safety.[2]
