Kurama

**Introduction:** Yoko Kurama also known Shuichi Minamino is one of the main characters of YuYu Hakusho. After being chased and injured by a bounty he put his his spirit in the fetus later know as Shuichi Minamino. Kurama can switch between his yoko and human form at will by the end of the series with his human form being his most common appearance.

**Character Details:** Kurama is the most calculating, cunning, and analytical of the main characters, if not the entire series. He has demonstrated his ability to look past his emotions and see the true situation at hand on multiple occasions. He is extremely perceptive, quickly recognizing patterns and mistakes made by his opponents, giving him an advantage. While his preference in battle is to devise strategies based on his opponents' fighting abilities and style, his natural battle instincts are also highly tuned. He is capable of severing another person's head in an instant, relying solely on instinct. However, his concern for his friends and family is the driving force behind his fighting spirit, as he would do anything to protect them, making him a dependable teammate despite his cunning exterior. Kurama has a good heart, and several villains in the series will use it against him to defeat him. In the face of adversity, Kurama has the rare ability to ignore all emotions and think three to four steps ahead, clutching the pinch and seizing control of the situation. His detached emotional state, combined with his vast intelligence, is perhaps his most valuable asset. As Yoko Kurama he is much more cruel, vindictive and merciless, retaining all his intelligence he likes to toy with his opponents in a sadistic way

**Death Tree:** A Demon World plant, the Death Tree is a root-based plant that contains huge mouths at the end of each root. It is a carnivorous tree with an acidic saliva capable of melting flesh and bone easily. Instinctively it strikes anything that moves.

**Ojigi Plant:** A plant indigenous to South America. When grown with demon energy, it mutates into a creature that responds to movements or heat by closing its leaves around its prey and crushing it to death. It is considered the demon world equivalent of the mimosa plant, but unlike its human world counterpart, which withdraws in response to a presence, this demonic plant actually pursues any heat it notices.

**Sinning Tree:** A demon world plant, the tree is a carnivorous plant that feeds by siphoning the life of prey through its tendrils and roots. Upon ensnaring a victim, the tree responds to the memories of the victims, flooding the consciousness of the victim with hallucinations of wickedness, and forces them to replay their fears as it feeds off of its victims' life force, never stopping until its host is dead. If, for some reason, the victim continues to struggle, then the tree will generate extra tendrils in order to restrain its victim as it feeds.

**Pseudo Creature:** This parasite merges with its host on the cellular level, instinctively repairing any damage done to the host body. Unless the host's brain is destroyed, the host will stay in a 'half-life' for a very-long time.
