Well...Nuriko...what can I say? He's gorgeous, (yes, I know I say that about just about every guy on my page!) he's nice and cute and nice and I love him and *ahem*. Anyways, He's as you probably know, a cross-dresser. He family members include his parents and his older brother. (yes he has one) He's little sister died when he was very young. He couldn't handle the loss of her so he took her name, KORIN and started cross-dressing to 'live for his sister. Still... that thing with Hotohori has NOTHING to do with that. Nuriko, at the beggining of the series is 18 years old. Later, he dies in the hands of Ashitare, a seiryuu seishi. *sniff* My poor Nuriko. His death was somewhat gruesome. I mean, imagine a claw through your stomach. *shudder* Well, back to the point, his special ability is strength. I mean like major strength. I learned, after watching the show for a while that Tamahome seems to suffer the most for that. *hehehe* Well, Nuriko is 166cm tall, has a blood type of B and his family owns a clothing shop. As Watase Yuu said in the manga, Nurko acts in a way like Miaka's older sister. (when he's not falling in love with her.) But also, no matter what, he still has that 'manly' aspect of protecting Miaka. One of his favorite phrases are, "Even though I am a man, I will give up manhood for love". Ah..., my sweet, beautiful, Nuriko. A full Suzaku Seishi, protecter of Miaka, Suzaku no Miko.
