Kurama (Shuichi Minamino)

          Kurama (Shuuichi Minamino and Yoko)- Kurama is sooooo hot (drool), in both his forms.  Kurama was a legendary bandit but one day he got shot and had to hide.  In desperation he hid himself within an unborn human boy (who was about to die).  His spirit and mind replaced that of the dying child and he was born as a human named Shuichi.  As Shuichi he can control plants, but he’s not nearly as powerful as his demon form. Also he can no longer control plants from the demon world.  He’s still very intelligent and wise, a cunning strategist.  He is also skilled at creating medicines and can use his ki (spirit energy) to heal others. He is very popular, especially with girls (but he isn’t interested in any one) because he is kind, gentle, smart, and has a good sense of humor. As a child he was evidently cold and looked down on his human mother, but as he grew up he began to love her and she became all that mattered to him.  Unable to carry out his original plan to leave at the age of ten (unable because he didn’t want to hurt her), he remained and devoted himself to making her happy.  As a human Kurama is quiet, kind, witty, friendly, intelligent, self sacrificing, and he feels more than a little guilty about his past sins.  He is the one the others turn to for advice and consolation.  Kurama longs to start again, but for now he settles for helping Yusuke as a form of repentance.  For some reason when he reverts to his Yoko form he seems to forget all he learned as a human, but he still helps Yusuke.  He is almost two different people, but not quite.
