The Kurama Thread
Youko Kurama, or Minamino Shuichi, as he is known to the human world, is a fox demon, or kitsune, who was killed by a hunter and saved himself by escaping to the human world to hide inside the body of an unborn baby. He is both human and demon, sometimes showing one side more than the other. When his human mother, Minamino Shiori, became deathly ill, he teamed up with an old friend, Jaganshi Hiei, to steal three magical items from Reikai. One of which was a mirror that could grant a single wish, though at a price. That price is the wisher's life. Kurama nearly sacraficed himself for his mother, but Yusuke interfered and saved them both. Afterwards, Kurama took a blow for Yusuke to repay him and was consequently cleared of all charges. To get Hiei out of Reikai prison, he struck a deal with Koenma that put himself and Hiei on probation, with any wrong doings on Hiei's part affecting them both. The condition also forced them both to join Team Urameshi as spirit detectives.
