Everything that is specified by the effect creating the original token or tokens will also be true about the additional tokens created by Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation's replacement effect. For example, if an effect tells you to create a token "tapped and attacking," the additional tokens will also be tapped and attacking. Similarly, if an effect creates a token and puts counters on it, the additional tokens will also get those counters.

Color identityEvery color of mana symbol on a card, in its cost and in its rules text. Your commander's color identity sets the limit for your whole deck: every other card has to fit inside it.
