At first glance, Tadao is almost identical in appearance to his brother, Shiranui. There are minor differences, however: Tadao's eyes are of a light blue hue instead of Shiranui's crimson, and his hair a fainter shade of blond. His facial expression, at first glance, could easily pass for "gentle," though his ugly soul can mar such fine features when anger, hate, or plain cruelty allows it to shine through.
Tadao stands at 5'10", his willowy frame garbed in fitted, expensive clothes in most social occasions: a silk shirt, dark pants, a gaudy cloak of viridian thrown over it all. When working with his livestock, his clothing is far more casual, consisting of a simple, roughspun pair of trousers and loose shirt, with a leather smock over it to protect it from most of the blood spilled during his handiwork.
Personality: Tadao is a covetous being. Regardless of what it may be - power, knowledge, wealth, even happiness - he desires it, and when it is in someone else's hands, he will take it. Tadao is a manipulative individual, using mainly his good looks and charm to convince others to give him what he wants -- skillfully lying, flattering, and threatening as the situation calls for it until his target breaks down. If "negotiations" should fail, however, he will resort to force rather than leave the desired bauble in its owner's hands.
Tadao regards most people as being beneath him and isn't afraid to show it through generally haughty behavior, a trait which, in addition to extreme acquisitiveness, he shares with his elder brother Shiranui; however, unlike the head of the Ayakashi house, Tadao holds no qualms about dealing with the Shinigami...so long as the Ayakashi profits from it.

History:
Tadao's early life was one of luxury and opulence -- most anything he could have wanted (which was a great many things), he had. Much like his elder brother, he was fed his family's views on business and life in general to prepare him to join the Ayakashis' business. Shortly after his parents retired and Shiranui took the reins of the family name, Tadao opened up a farm dealing with all manner of livestock to provide Rukongai and Seireitei with high-quality (and high-price) beef, chicken, and pork.
Early in the 17th century nw, a competitor of Shiranui's, understandably disgruntled by the aforementioned's business ethics, threatened the Ayakashi family with harm; Tadao, fearing the consequences of the man's actions, and wanting to avoid the loss of his profitable farm and his fairly high standing in society, took it upon himself to remove the problem this competitor posed. A delivery of meats to Seireitei some days later saw the shinigami enjoying prime cuts the likes of which had not since been tasted. Despite the aid rendered, Tadao drew Shiranui's ire rather than his praise; it was the elder brother that ended up under suspicion for the man's disappearance. Their relationship is still strained to this day.
