'''Jano''' (commonly known as '''the Guardian of the Cave of Bad Dreams''') is a character from ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' (and its remakes) in which he guards [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]], as well as [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] where he is involved with [[Robo-Pirate Army|the Pirates]]. In the former game, he is the Guardian of [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]], a subterranean grotto in which the nightmares of [[Polokus]] are found and which it is his job to ensure are kept locked away. Jano also guards precious treasure, which, until found by [[Rayman]], was only rumoured to exist. | '''Jano''' (commonly known as '''the Guardian of the Cave of Bad Dreams''') is a character from ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' (and its remakes) in which he guards [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]], as well as [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] where he is involved with [[Robo-Pirate Army|the Pirates]].

The manual of ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' reveals that Jano was the first nightmare of Polokus, and that Polokus begot Jano during the [[First Bad Dream]]. It also reveals that Jano is the progenitor of the [[Antitoon]]s. (The game's official site claims that Polokus ''became'' Jano, but this is simply a mistranslation from the original French.) | The manual of ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' reveals that Jano was the first nightmare of Polokus, and that Polokus begot Jano during the [[First Bad Dream]]. It also reveals that Jano is the progenitor of the [[Antitoon]]s. It was in response to this endless swarm of Antitoons that [[Betilla the Fairy]] and her [[nymph]] sisters created Rayman, meaning that Jano is indirectly responsible for Rayman's existence.
