Rin

Rin(りん) is a character in the anime/manga Inuyasha. She is a human girl, and she follows Sesshomaru.

biography
She is an orphan girl who finds Sesshomaru in the woods after he was badly injured by InuYasha's Wind Scar. Although Sesshomaru snubs her, she visits him regularly and attempts to take care of him, even stealing fish from the village for him until she learns that he doesn't eat human food. The villagers beat her for the theft, but when Sesshomaru idly inquires about her injuries, she seems strangely happy about his interest in her welfare. During this time, she never speaks, only communicating with hand gestures and smiles.

Later, the wolf-demon Koga chases a thief to her village, then lets his wolves kill and eat the villagers. Rin flees through the forest towards Sesshomaru, but the wolves catch up to her. Recovered from his wounds, Sesshomaru is leaving when he catches Rin's scent and follows it to her mauled corpse. Remembering her smile, he retests Tenseiga by using it to resurrect her. After setting Rin on her feet again, Sesshomaru walks away, leaving the dumbfounded Jaken and a wide-eyed Rin standing on the path. After a moment, they both follow. The next time Rin appears, she is clean, wearing a new, colorful kimono, and talking and acting more like a typical child. Throughout the series, she continues to follow "Lord Sesshomaru", as she calls him; when he is away on dangerous tasks, she waits for him with Ah-Un and sometimes Jaken.

Though Sesshomaru never states any feelings for her, he displays a strong protective instinct and Rin is obviously devoted to him. Rin is killed for a second time when she and Kohaku, now also journeying with Sesshomaru, are taken by the "Dog from Hell." When he finds her body, Sesshomaru is visibly disturbed, especially when he learns that Tenseiga can only revive a person once. Rin's lifeless body is taken by the Master of Hell, with Sesshomaru and Kohaku following to retrieve her. When they return from the Land of the Dead, Sesshomaru's mother uses her Meidou stone to revive Rin. Jaken confirms that it made Sesshomaru happy while Sesshomaru puts his hand on Rin's cheek.

In the final chapter of the manga, set three years after the defeat of Naraku, Rin no longer travels with Sesshomaru and Jaken. Instead, she lives with Kaede, which InuYasha comments is "practice" for her to live in a human village as an adult, or whatever life she chooses. Sesshomaru is shown visiting her and bringing her gifts rin still loves sesshomaru with all her heart and sesshomaru's secreat feelings is the same towards rin

Appearance
Rin's appearance is that of a typical young peasant girl commonly found during the Warring States period. Despite changing her appearance on few occassions, her overall style never changes; her trademark is her long dark hair with a single, short pigtail on her right.

Rin wears a common kosode that extends just below her knees. Her initial design was that of an ordinary, tarred red color. When she begins to accompany Sesshomaru, she wears a white/orange checkered pattern kosode. As an adult, she wears a similar design, albeit it extends down to above her ankles.

In every instance, Rin wears an ordinary green sash which ties at her back.
 * Obi

InuYasha and Kagura aside, Rin is one of the very few non-minor characters, and one of only two female characters to spend her time perpetually barefoot throughout the series. She retains this habit through any sort of situation, and even through her "adult years" with Kaede.
