Reavers are essentially berserk space cannibals. Jayne is a hired thug who is only with the good guys because he's kinda thick & greedy. Captain Mal paid Jayne to switch sides in the middle of a fight & he's stayed with the Firefly crew since.



Of course, every now and then, they'd show him as something more than a greedy thug. In the pilot, when Book was about to say grace, Jayne was on of the first to bow his head. And in The Message, we learn that Jayne sends a portion of his cut to his mom and sister. Also in that episode, we see Jayne take off his hat during several solemn moments.
