Character Description: Jaken
Jaken is Sesshomaru's annoying little servant. He originally commanded a great quantity of demons, but he left to travel with Sesshomaru, in awe of the dog demon's strength and gracefulness.
Jaken uses the Staff of Heads, a staff that has the head of an old man and a woman. The man's head can spit out fire.
Jaken is constantly abused by Sesshomaru, but he is so devoted to his master that he does not seem to notice. Or if he does, he does not care.
When Rin is introduced, Jaken cares for her because if he does a good job, he believes Sesshomaru will say nice things to him.
I'm told Jaken's name means "wicked" in Japanese.
