The Wolf demon graveyard protector was the protector of the wolf demon tribe graveyard along with the Goraishi. When Kōga came to acquire the Goraishi, they fought, and the protector quickly gained the upper hand on Kōga. It was not until Kōga risked his life to save his companions from the protector's fire attack, (and thus chose saving his comrades over possessing the Goraishi), that the spirits recognized Kōga was worthy of the Goraishi and it materialized on to his arm. With it he killed the graveyard protector in one strike.
