Taranee Cook is a fictional character that first appeared in W.I.T.C.H. in April 2001. She is the third member of W.I.T.C.H, a group of teenage girls who make up the Guardians; the people who guard Kandrakar, the center of the universe, from evil. Taranee is pyrokinetic and telepathic. She is half African, half Asian.

Taranee was born on March 23, making her an Aries. She was raised in the town of Sesamo, but later moved to Heatherfield. Her best friend is Will Vandom, the leader of W.I.T.C.H.

Taranee is a shy and reserved teenager, and she has a boyfriend called Nigel Ashcroft, an ex-Member of Uriah's Gang. Taranee is the most intelligent member of the group, and her favourite subject is mathematics. She loves photography, basketball and classical music, but hates bugs. Her mother is a judge, and her father is an ex-lawyer, now psychologist. Taranee has an older brother called Peter, who, unlike fellow W.I.T.C.H member Irma Lair's brother, is really kind to her and her friends. When people play with Taranee's feelings, or when she gets angry, this girl becomes lethal.

In the cartoon version, she is voiced by Miss Kittie and is African American, not mixed as she is.

However,in the later W.I.T.C.H media, she appears provoked by the Oracle's descision not to help them in their task. Taranee Decides to leave the group and continue with normal life. Her replacement is Orube. Afterwards, she eventually rejoins the group.
