MM - Satow "Baku" Tadashi
Private investigator working out of Paris, France
Description:
Satow “Baku” Tadashi
Japanese Oni
Age 18 Sex Male Height 189cm Build 90kg
Nationality Japanese
Description Satow Tadashi is of typical height for a male of the Oni variant. But he is much leaner than typical. Some may even call him scrawny. His skin is a bright orange color, but that isn’t unusual for Oni. His hair is black and straight, kept long of length, usually combed back and held in a pony tail. His eyes are a black hue, making it difficult to tell where the pupil ends and the iris begins.
He has no real style of his own, as he spends most of his life as someone else.

Bio:
== Background ==
Tadashi was born in the Old Ōtō Village district of the Osaka-Kobe-Kyoto Metroplex of Japan to a rather poor, but good, Oni family. While he was very young, his parents kept telling him he was meant for something greater, and if they knew what was in store for him or not they are not revealing. Tadashi was the fifth, or sixth depending on who you ask, of eight siblings. The other (fifth or sixth) is his twin sister Ena. Tadashi will rarely, if ever, talk of his family other than to mention they are well. He may possibly even reveal that they are living in a Mitsuhama housing complex should the person being spoken to be trusted with his true identity.
When he reached puberty, Tadashi Awakened rather timidly by some standards. His first clue was being able to turn invisible. The Satow parents wanted to keep the whole affair quiet, but Tadashi saw an opportunity to tend to his family. He petitioned Mitsuhama to admit him. He passed the Awakened testing process, but since his family was outside of the corp, Satow was required to pay a tuition to cover the training costs of an outsider. Not having the money within the family, Tadashi turned to the Yakuza. There he found Ishikawa Yoko, Oyuban of the local branch, and notorious loan shark. He made a deal. A deal that would cost him greatly should he not be able to repay his debt.
Training was intense. Between a solid education, basic martial arts, and special procedure training, Tadashi had a real difficult time keeping up. And if that wasn’t enough, just when he was getting the hang of his schedule, he was sent to the University of Denver to be instructed in the Tradition chosen for him by his new masters. Qabbalism really didn’t suit him. But he could not fail his family.
His hard work and dedication paid off. When his training was complete, he had passed the testing required to be promoted to Security Consultant. Normally, his pay would have seemed tremendous. But he gives it all over to his family, that he also moved into the Mitsuhama housing. His pay, along with what the other family members earn, keeps them living well and healthy in Kyoto.
He keeps in touch when he can, but his work continues to separate him from them. And he dare not violate the trust Mitsuhama puts in him, lest his family be evicted and no better off than they were before.
== Concept ==
In short, a corporate spy. Mitsuhama has one of the best intelligence gathering divisions of the AAA Megacorps. And that is hard to maintain without having people already in position when they are needed. He is currently posted in Paris, but that can change as it has before.
== Notes ==

Sister: Kiwa – Oldest, doesn’t live with the family and Tadashi has no real contact with
Sister: Chiasa – Pretends to hate Tadashi
Brother: Hideaki – very close
Sister: Yumi – very close
Sister: Ena – Twin, justly convicted of a crime and imprisoned
