Hiei

Biography
FIRE DEMON SPAWN OF AN ICE MAIDEN.

Because of this Hiei was deemed too dangerous to be allowed to stay and was banished from the village as an infant, leaving behind a twin sister. Hiei then grew up harshly, fighting everyday just to survive the harsh demon world though due to his birth he was incredibly powerful for his age. However once he discovered he has a sister he had a precedure done that gave him a powerful third eye called the Jagan to look for her, but at the cost of most of his power. He eventually made his way to the human world where he met up with Shuichi Minamino, also known as Kurama, the reincarnation of the demon fox Yoko, with whom he became close friends. After a run in with Spirit Detective, Yusuke Urameshi, Hiei was captured and forced to work along side Yusuke. However he eventually came to respect Yusuke and became a trusted and powerful ally in his fight against rogue spirits.

Hiei then removes the bandage from his arm to reveal his dragon mark.

Both are also proficient swordsmen.
