Tao has two forms. Her primary form resembles Tao Isonokami, her former self. Her secondary form is the true appearance of the Goddess of Creation, and has a blue and white body with a set of horns and wings. The Goddess of Creation form only appears in cutscenes.
Tao's Taito stats are applicable to in the Canon of Vengeance route. They may vary from her Canon of Creation appearance. Unlike in Shin Megami Tensei V, Tao is able to be summoned from the Demon Compendium after beating the game. Prior to her story related appearance, she is able to be summoned and dismissed just like any other demon, but she cannot be fused. After selecting a New Game Plus option, the player is given the chance to register her data in the Demon Compendium. She automatically joins the Nahobino's stock after arriving at Ueno if there is an open demon slot, and after this point she cannot be dismissed.
