Salamander

was a yōkai who was sealed by a monk years ago within a painting of the Buddhist deity Kannon.

History
While Naraku's remarkably strong jaki slowly spread, reaching the painting's location, the Salamander was revived from the seal, and used women to lure men to her so she could obtain their skins. She believed that men's skins could regenerate her own skin that had been peeled by the villagers, including the skin of the hanyō Inuyasha. She controlled the women by feeding them eggs, which later hatched into salamanders in their stomachs. When the eggs hatched, the Salamander assumed complete control of the woman's actions. She infected several women including Sango. Even when the Salamander itself was killed, her hatchlings still possessed the women. She was killed by Inuyasha with the Wind Scar when she was desiring to take his skin.

Powers & Abilities
She had the ability to control people by feeding them her salamander eggs.
