Dororo's bandit father Hibukuro was wounded by a samurai official and later died. Her mother froze to death while fleeing in the snow, but before she died she drew a map on Dororo's back to locate money hidden by her father at Bone Cape. Hyakkimaru learns that Dororo is female with the latter continuously insisting she is a boy, though this is because her parents raised her as one.
