“ Kuro looms up ahead, won't allow us to pass. Let us not travel further, lest we unleash her wrath. „
~ Sein to Ori

Summary

Kuro is the main antagonist of Ori and the Blind Forest. She is responsible for the corruption and decay of Nibel, as she stole Sein from the Spirit Tree. She despises the light as a creature of darkness and due to past conflict with it. She and the other enemies of Nibel, the creatures of darkness, actively work against the restoration of the Elements so that the Spirit Tree may not be able to be restored to its complete state by Ori.

Credit to the Ori Wiki for this summary.

Originally a mother of four hatchlings, Kuro lost three of them to the Spirit Tree's light when the sheer intensity of the Light Ceremony leaked into her nest in search for Ori. To protect her remaining unborn child and in revenge for killing her other three, Kuro launched an attack on the Spirit Tree and the Spirit Guardians that were gathered there. She took away Sein, the source of the Spirit Tree's light, causing the forest of Nibel to wither. Over the years, Kuro had hunted down the Spirit Guardians that she believed would threaten her remaining child by restoring the Spirit Tree's light, subsequently killing them.

Towards the beginning of the story when Sein first explains to Ori why Nibel has decayed, Kuro is mentioned indirectly by both Sein and the Spirit Tree before her physical appearance as "she" and "her". Kuro's real name is not stated until later.

Ori first crosses paths with Kuro immediately after escaping the Ginso Tree, creating an impact that sends Ori flying off to the ground below. As they are falling, Kuro attempts to kill them, but Gumo saves them from her talons of hate to return the favor. After restoring the Element of Winds, Ori and Sein discover Kuro's nest and the truth behind her actions. Kuro pursues them out of her home and back to the frozen wastelands near the Forlorn Ruins where Ori is narrowly able to escape.

At the climax of Ori's journey, Kuro arrives at Mount Horu to stop Ori from restoring the Element of Warmth. She chases them through the burning ruins of the nearby forest and stops them from reaching the Spirit Tree, knocking Ori unconscious. A revived Naru, having traveled to the mountain to find Ori, embraces her child and stirs something within Kuro. Seeing Naru in such distress reminds Kuro of her own grief, making her realize that her actions have made her into the monster she saw the Spirit Tree as. She vows to atone for her mistakes and takes Sein back to the Tree to restore Nibel's balance. As the Spirit Tree's light fills the realm, Kuro perishes in its glow.

After Nibel returns back to normal, Kuro's unborn chick is taken into Naru's care where it begins to hatch shortly afterward.
