Rando
Rando (乱童 Randō? translated as Child of Confusion) is a fictional character and a major antagonist in the manga Yu Yu Hakusho written and illustrated by Yoshihiro Togashi. His alter ego is Shorin (少林, Shōrin translated as Place of New Trees), or Shaolin in the English manga. He is a demon and the main antagonist during the Disciple Selection Trials in the first season of the anime. Rando is voiced by Yō Inoue in the original Japanese and Eric Vale in the English dub.
When disguised as Shorin, his appearance is akin to be a small child with a fully shaved head, who wears a black cap, blue
Buddhist monk attire, and a simple necklace. Shorin has dark eyes and eyebrows coupled with an innocent, almost doll-like appearance. Apparently, the concept art for this form was a reference to the shaolin monks, famous for indoctrinating disciples at very young ages. It is assumed that Rando took the form of Shorin in order to remain inconspicuous when he wasn't hunting his human prey. This likely contributed to Shorin's relatively plain looks, and unassuming attire. However, in his true form, Rando's hair is a long, bright red, similar to Kurama's in his human form. His skin is chalk-white and he has an odd-looking scar on his chest that appears to spread across his torso. He also bears blue tribal markings on his face that resemble a spider. Strangely enough, he also bares a physical resemblance to Kurama.
Shorin seemed to be a sweet kid, though fierce in combat. Rando, though, was only concerned with power. He steals techniques from those who have mastered them, and kills the victims after he masters them. Also, while fighting Yusuke Urameshi, it's revealed that Rando is a sadist when he says that he tested each of the techniques that he stole from the psychics (fighters) on them, and did so because he wanted them to experience fear.
