—"Rain On Your Charade"

Taco, labeled The Liar (formerly The Randomly Insane One) was a female contestant on Inanimate Insanity and a member on Team Chickenleg. She was the main antagonist of the first season and is currently a secondary antagonist on Inanimate Insanity II. She is currently voiced by Rheagan Rizio.

Appearance[]

Taco is a round, tan, hard-shelled taco filled with tomatoes and lettuce. She also has a pair of arms in her shell that she can hide at any time.

As of "Mine Your Own Business", her shell was dented after she was hit by a gemory and which is a permanent part of her body.

Personality[]

At the start of the series, Taco was known for her silly, goofy, weird, wild, and dumb personality, most notably for shouting random words like "SOUR CREAM" and "SPRINKLES", as well as spitting lemons, unfortunately she lost this ability causing her to lament over it for a short period of time. Taco usually appeared completely oblivious to all conflicts and remained motionless with a sideways smile on her face. Overall, Taco is a peculiar character, as she has a self-proclaimed IQ of 7, listed as having mental problems for unknown reasons by Dictionary, and has been said to speak only French and know a few bit of proper dialect, though this was eventually proven false later on in the show.

Despite her bizarre character, Taco illustrates that she is a fierce and antagonistic competitor throughout many episodes, such as in "A Lemony Lesson", where she instantly wins for her team by spitting up dozens of lemons, and in "Inanimate Smackdown", where she dominates the wrestling challenge. Taco reveals over time many abilities that were previously unknown, such as in "Aquatic Conflict", she casually declares that she has arms, unbeknownst to her friends such as Pickle. She also would occasionally shift into moments of impressive intelligence, such as in "Crappy Anniversary", where she analyzes her percentage of landing in the water, but immediately change back.

This slow shift in Taco's character eventually leads to the grand reveal in "Journey Through Memory Lane (Part 2)", where Taco loses the competition and unravels her true identity in a fit of anger when OJ wins. Taco reveals that she merely played a role and created her stupid persona as part of a plan to gain viewership and not be seen as a threat.

Taco's true identity is vastly different from her outrageous and moronic persona. She is rather intelligent, deceitful, tactful, sensitive, and mischievous, with a hankering for evil. Although her plan to steal the million-dollar prize in Inanimate Insanity was thwarted, she continues to pursue the same prize once again in Inanimate Insanity II.

Initially hiding in the bushes for the first half of the season, Taco remains as a spectator to the competition in order to find an accomplice. Taco eventually narrows her choice on Microphone, a weaker competitor who is struggling to succeed in challenges but tries very hard. After Taco begins tormenting Microphone in "Rain On Your Charade" by reading through her personal diary, she opens up to Microphone to convince her to join sides with her in order to split the million-dollar prize 50/50 in exchange for help and advice throughout the rest of the competition.

From here, Taco further exhibits her true personality. She has little regard for genuine morals in order to advance in the competition, such as in "Kick the Bucket" where she instructs Microphone to paralyze Balloon with a view to hinder his ability in the challenge and mentions how she enjoys messing with others, but she is also shown to respect Microphone when she was able to manipulate with Balloon within the rules of the game. Taco is also somewhat egotistical and arrogant, as she views Balloon and Suitcase's conflicts as petty and "adorable."
