Shippo was just an orphan fox demon when Inuyasha and Kagome found him. His father had been killed by the Thunder Brothers Hiten and Manten, and Shippo wanted revenge more than anything. After a hard struggle, the trio were able to defeat the two brothers, and Shippo decided to accompany Inuyasha and Kagome on their quest.
Shippo's friendly and playful, and he also adores all the treats and toys that Kagome brings back from her world. Probably one of his major faults is that he's a bit of a coward, so he prefers to let Inuyasha and the others do all the fighting. That's not to say he can't be brave if the need arises, and if he is forced into a battle, he uses his fox magic to do shape-shifting tricks and create illusions. And if all else fails, he can throw out his Fox Fire. Shippo fears being alone above all else, so he sticks extremely close to all his friends, though he seems to favor Kagome the most(sort of as a big sister.)
