Matsu (まつ) is one of the women who lived in the village of oni women after she lost her family to war.
History[]
Mastu was among the women that prayed to the painting of Kannon at its temple after they all lost their families. They all became possessed by the Salamander demon who woke up from the painting's seal due to the demonic energy of Naraku. Later, she organized the women to lure men into the village in order to kill them and use their skin to revitalize the Salamander. When Shinosuke, the fiancé of one of the village women Wakana, as well as Inuyasha's group came for looking her, Matsu claimed that she was not in the village. Sango investigated the painting and discovered that the women had vanished into a river. The possessed women then captured Sango by dragging her into the water. When Sango came to she found herself in an underwater cavern, where she saw Matsu. Matsu then forced Sango to swallow the Salamander's egg in order for her to be controlled by it.
