Rōrō

Royo (老狼, Rōyō, "Old Wolf"), is a Wolf yōkai, is the protector of the Wolf elder of the Northen Yoro Tribe. He is killed to defend the Wolf elder. Royo attracted the demons, who fled from the mountains of the north to escape a giant Ogre (Kyōkotsu), as a diversion to get them away from Ayame and the Wolf elder.



He was found dying by Koga, who saves him from demons. However, after telling of the attack Kyokotsu to Koga, Ginta and Hakkaku, Royo died and was buried. In the manga Royo is simply a demon-wolf that escaped from the mountains of the north due to Kyokotsu.
