He was born amongst many others, but he was the only one who achieved a humanoid body. At first, his family tried to get rid of him since he was thought off as being weak and unpure but it was soon found out that he was the strongest and most adaptable one thanks to his body. Mostly the young dragons began to worship him as the chosen being. Tatsu loved his family dearly and protected them. Even when humanity charged at all the dragons for the glory or horns or whatever, he came out glorious thanks to his body. still, one day too many humans ppeared with dangerous weapons even he couldn´t do much against an d so he and the young ones were sent to the demon-realm where they were supposed to be safer then at home. He adapted easily in the new environment and continued to protect his kin.
The first he met was Kisai and they became friends relatively easily. When he was out to scout the region wiht his new friend, his home got attacked and his siblings died all but two. ENraged he brutally murders the attackers. Afterwards, he became detached from his feelings. Tatsu swore to himslef to never get attached to anyone so loosing someone won´t matter anymore to him. He refuses Kisai´s proposal of reviving those he had lost and wanders around. THe rumors of a human-demon-pair reaches his ears and he somehow feels the urge to meet them. He searched for them with the intent of killing the human, if he dared to hurt the demon. Upon finding him he is more than puzzled by their relationship. Tastu is unable to trust them and observes them form a distance for a long while and oversees how other demon join them. Even Kisai at one point. Nekomata once walks up to him and asks for his motive watching over those two and warns him that the ice-demon is getting fidgety with him observing them. He was dragged down and more or less joined the group. THere he learns to more or less enjoy himself again, even if mostly only with Kisai and HIbana.
On the fateful day, he fights the enemies on the outside, so that the others can advance further. He also protects Kisai who was trapped in a special trap laid out for him. He and Hibana get seriously wounded in the process and still they were unable to protect Byakuya and FUbuki. He takes her with him afterwards to train so they won´t loose anyone again. Suzaku later finds and joins them to make them stronger.
He joins the others to protect Byakuya in the human-realm. He knows that in the beginning it was just a rumor born by Akumaou and he´s the one realizing first that the rumor is turning into reality and warns Akumaou.
