Tōran

is the de facto leader of the Panther Devas, and has the ability to create and control ice. She watches while the Panther King takes the lives of her siblings Shunran, Karan, and Shūran in order to revive himself. She later rescinds her claim for vengeance against Sesshōmaru and his brother when Sesshōmaru uses Tenseiga to revive her slain siblings, returning the Panther clan back to the West.

History
Many centuries ago, Inuyasha's father battled the Panther King and killed him. The four siblings of the Panther Demon Tribe fought along side their master in this battle, losing to the Inu no Taishō and his soldiers, Lord Sesshōmaru being among them. After the humiliating defeat, The Panther Demon Tribe swore revenge against the Dog Demons, promising that one day they would repay them for the death of their master. Many years later, about 50 Years before the start of the story when Inuyasha was still bound to the Sacred Tree, The Panther Demon Tribe returned, attempting to regain control of the western lands. However, Lord Sesshōmaru stepped in and defeated them, sending them back to the east with the assistance of some other demons (notably Rōyakan) who felt grateful to Sesshōmaru's Father for defeating the cats the first time.

Personality
Tōran is not above mocking her opponents, teasing Sesshōmaru when she notices he is short one arm, "Who could have done such a thing to the mighty Sesshōmaru?" and taunting him about all the soldiers that died under his leadership in the battle 50 years prior. Tōran has a personality very similar to Sesshōmaru; only showing emotion at very rare moments, those emotions, much like Sesshōmaru, usually being arrogance and pride in her own powers.

Powers
Like all four of the Panther Devas, Tōran's name is a reference to one of the four seasons. Tōran is associated with Winter, and her powers reflect that. She has the ability to manipulate water and ice. When she walks down the river towards Sesshōmaru, ice forms wherever she steps. She can control wind as well, sending blasts of freezing cold air at her opponents. She can also fire daggers of ice at her opponents. Her weapon of choice when she battles appears to be an a spear that resembles an icicle, which freezes anything it comes contact with.
