Taro

Taro is a rooster, and the familiar of Grandmother Wren. He is very old, and has an unusual appearance for a rooster. His personality is mischievous, and he likes playing tricks on Ame, though when the situation calls for it he can be very serious.

When Grandmother Wren passed away, Taro faded -- at first into a ghostly white color, then into motes of starlight.
