Miroku is a lecherous monk. He asks every pretty woman he meets if she would bear his child. Though this sounds quite ridiculous, Miroku has a good reason to ask. He, his grandfather, and his father were cursed by Naraku with what is called a kazaana(Wind Tunnel). It's basicly a black hole in the palm of his right hand, he must use a monk's seal to keep it from sucking in everything around him. The bad part of this curse is that the Wind Tunnel will eventually suck him in as well, just as it did his father and grandfather. Thus, Miroku has to continue his family's line so that if he fails to kill Naraku, thus lifting the curse, his son will have to take on the job.He meets up with kagome and Inuyasha early on in the series. Finding that he and Inuyasha have the same purpose(to find the shikon jewel shards and kill Naraku), he helps the best he can while fighting Naraku's evil forces.
Personality: Miroku seems superfluous and flaky, but he constantly worries about the curse in his hand, and feels that time is running out. He has a good sence of humor,cares for the others in the Yasha gang, and makes great sacrifices if he feels it will help.
Skills: Though his wind tunnel is his most powerful weapon, he sometimes cannot use it due to Naraku's Saimyoushou(Hell's Insects), which sometimes pop up to willingly get sucked into the wind tunnel, thus stinging Miroku as they enter. However, he also has some significant holy powers, which he can use to protect the others by creating an invisable shell over them, and his Shakujou(Monk's Staff) is also a good holy weapon.
