Editing Ninjas and Demons:Jaken-Ittou

[[Image:Jaken-Ittou.jpg|thumb|Jaken-Ittou]]

== Background ==

The Demon Jaken-Ittou is one of the most powerful beings enslaved by Master Koji. Little is known of the demon, who usually chooses to communicate only with a cutting smile, or with a few words, delivered in an obviously insincere honeyed tone, but carefully selected for their calculated cruelty. Jaken-Ittou drinks, and spars, and flirts, and does Master Koji's bidding, but he truly loves only two things: drawing tears with his words, and drawing blood with his blades.

Jaken-Ittou is nearly human in appearance; he is tall, and handsome, with flowing brown hair and red eyes. A demonic sigil, which glows faintly red, mars the smooth flesh of his forehead. He favors a suit of red-black armor, with blades projecting from the shoulders, but purely as a matter of style; there is nothing special about the armor, and his own skin is far more resistant to harm.

While Master Koji's work is often interesting, Jakken-Ittou does not bear his servitude lightly. Master Koji unleahses him upon the clan only when a particularly brutal example is needed, and it pains the demon that he is forbidden to slake his cruelty on the Black Tiger clan members who surround him most of the time. Not that he would harm them all, or even many of them, for a blade loses its edge when swung too freely, but he hates that the choice is not his. Someday, Jakken-Ittou promises himself, he will slip Koji's bindings, and his former master will learn pain truly means.

Jakken-Ittou wields Spite and Malice, twin daggers that are formed of his own demonic essence. They are mere extensions of his will, and if they are broken or taken away, he can reform them in his hands at will (that's why they are Weapons rather than Items).
