Red, to recap...I've already answered that question, and in great detail I might add....it's like a couple of us said, he's a nature spirit/demon! He uses nature as a weapon! Kinda like Shippo from Inu Yasha and his fox magic, but not quite. And his abilities are pretty neat. As a woman with the inherent ability to create and support a life, I'd love the ability to manipulate things the way that he does. I'd be able to create life and control it...just not kids, plants-or animals too.
