Janmachitra

Family: Nāgas · Role: Nāga · First appears: Chapter V

In Chapter V, Janmachitra sought his parents’ consent before rewarding Phalaka with the Amogha-chain. Phalaka was described as having become Janmachitra’s “refuge, my friend, and my kinsman.”

In the same chapter, Janmachitra said he would suffer great distress if separated from his parents. A serpent-charmer of South Panchāla told the ministers he would capture and bring in Janmachitra if given the golden basket.
