A former leader of both Twin Horn Syndicate and the Onmyo Agency's Spirit Division, he's probably best known for triggering the massive spiritual disaster that shook things up two years before the main story. The method? He used himself as the core—a pretty drastic move that eventually transformed him into a full-fledged ogre and pushed him into Phase 4-scale Phenomena territory. He didn't stick around long though; he died under circumstances that remain unclear.
During his lifetime, he held the Divine General rank and earned the nickname "the Professor" among those who knew him. He's also the father of Suzuka Dairenji, another Divine General, which means his legacy stuck around even after his death—both through his daughter and through the massive ripple effects of what he set in motion.
