Jano does not appear in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', but the game's manual and official website discuss him, and reveal some important information about his backstory. Jano was the [[First Bad Dream]] of [[Polokus]]; it was Jano's nightmarish birth that signalled the introduction of imbalance into [[the Glade of Dreams]]. When he was created, Jano began to spawn [[Antitoon|Darktoons]], the stuff of nightmares and the warped opposites of the [[Electoon]]s. In response to Jano and his [[Antitoon|Darktoon]] infestation, [[Betilla]] the Fairy and the other [[nymph]]s joined forces to create a hero who could restore balance to the world: [[Rayman]]. It seems that, on his very first adventure, the young [[Rayman]] put a stop to Jano's invasion, and the monster was forced to become the Guardian of [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]]. This origin-story, along with others, conflicts with ''[[Rayman 2]]'', where [[Rayman]] and Jano do not appear to have met before, and it does not explain the existence of [[Tarayzan]], for example, nor would explain the absence of the [[Antitoon]]s in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', ''[[Rayman 3]]'' and ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', and doesn't explain either how [[Polokus]] could have generated a nightmare, his first nightmare, before the existence of the ~~Antitoons~~ that should be the stuff of his nightmares.
