本作のオリジナルキャラクター。 玄武の沢に潜む鰻の妖怪。 最近、外の世界で鰻の絶滅が案じられていることの反転として、幻想郷では鰻がよく獲れるようになった。 ただし今の所仏教自体に興味は無い。 また、夏バテ対策として鰻に代わって焼き鳥を推している。 今回、ゲームを遊んでいただけだったが、反則的に強い人間が通りがかったのが運の尽きだった。 |
An original character from this fangame. An eel youkai dwelling in Genbu Ravine. As eels are going extinct recently, the number of eels has dramatically increased in Gensokyo, making them easier to catch. But she wasn't interested in Buddhism in any way. Also, as a countermeasure to high eel demand in summer (it's believed in Japan that eel is a food remedy for summer fatigue), she's been pushing yakitori to be the new trending food. Although she just wanted to enjoy the game this time, the humans she encountered were, unfortunately, the most powerful ones this world can offer. |

Yukari Yakumo is the Stage 3 boss. Keep in mind that while she is an official Touhou Project character, only information relating to her role in this fangame will be noted here.
Concept
- Name
See official article.
- Appearance
In Fan-made Virtual Autography, Yukari has an original design that draws inspiration from many of her previous designs. The general look of her outfit looks similar to her usual appearance with a white, four-layered frilled dress and a purple Chinese-style tabard with black edges and black trigrams (which were explained in her official article).
Main difference from her usual design is that her outer-most layer of the dress is purple (sort of reminiscent of her PCB design) with a white gradient towards the bottom. Her hairstyle is also different - Instead of her usual long hair tied with ribbons, or a bun, she has her hair shoulder-long, with a lock to her left being tied into a short braid with a red bow at the end. She holds her signature parasol and has her gap portal open and gazing behind her

One of the good old faces from the official games. One of the youkai sages who played an essential role in the creation of Gensokyo. She manages one of Gensokyo's boundaries, the "boundary of concrete and abstract". This time, she received reports from her pets that Map Orbs were interacting with the barrier, and she decided to visit the creator. However, nothing noteworthy had happened since then. The day of reckoning will come, for those who created this endless battle and manipulated the boundary of games. |

本作のオリジナルキャラクター。 外の世界の神社で暮らす一般的神霊。 また、八咫烏たちを呼び出し、命令することができる。 外界に身を置きながら、実は幻想郷の運営協力者でもある。
本来なら幻想郷の内側に介入しない厳姫がそうしたのには、理由があった。 でも、なぜ紫は自分たちのことを差し置いて、地珠を設置して回っている仲間のことを尋ねてきたのか。 |
One of the original characters from this fangame. An ordinary divine spirit who's living in the shrine from the Outside World. She can also summon hordes of Yatagarasu under her commands, Despite living in the Outside World, she is one of Gensokyo's co-managers. As she is the ancient ancestor of Kazuha, she received faith from Mariko and supported Mariko's research. Supposedly, it shouldn't be possible for her to interfere with Gensokyo inside, but she still proceeded anyway. There's a reason for that. However, it was intriguing to her that Yukari left them behind and turned around pursuing mobs that were only putting Map Orbs in their places. What exactly is this "Map Orb Game"? |

Mariko Sengakuji (仙覚寺 鞠子) is the Stage 5 boss and midboss, as well as the stage 6 midboss.
Concept
- Origin
Mariko appears to be inspired by wikipedia:Sengaku. Sengaku was a Buddhist monk who wrote the Manyoushuu Chushaku, which was a literary analysis of Manyoushuu. Mariko, just like her namesake, interprets, analyses, and annotates Manyoushuu and waka poetry in general
- Name
Her full name is Sengakujii Mariko (仙覚寺 鞠子). "Mariko (鞠子)" consists of kanji meaning "Ball" and "Child". Name might be from the twentieth of the fifty-three station of Toukaidou in current day Shizuoka. "Sengakujii (仙覚寺)" sounds identical to a temple located in Tokyo, but the kanji are different. In this case, it means "Sengaku Temple" and literally translates to "Temple of an Awake Hermit"
- Appearance
Mariko has long, straight, pale green hair with red tips and dark red eyes. Her hair is cut into straight bangs and is split in the middle. Her outfit feels very old-timey - she wears a black frilly mob cap with an orb ornament as its centerpiece. She has a black jacket with long puffy sleeves underneath which she wears a black dress. The jacket has white frills at the ends of the sleeves, at its bottom and around the neck. It seems to be fastened with a white string. Her sleeves and her cap seem to have a floral pattern. Her dress has a crossing pattern of white fabric, creating a rhombus-shaped pattern. Within each of these she has a smaller dotted line rhombus pattern with white pompoms in the middle. She holds a wooden cross-shaped pencil

One of the original characters in this fangame. A ghost from the Minamoto family of the Kamakura period. She stayed within Kerria City, studying and deciphering Waka collections. Different from usual ghosts, she never attracts livings into the world of death. While she was alive, she was grievous about the downfall of the Minamoto clan and the misery that awaited her. By the nature of such causes, her resolution was never about hating or killing. ...But it turned out those worries were unnecessary. This man was too much of a nutjob to be worried about. He spent his life studying up on a legendary poet who summarized an entire life's worth of Waka into a single collection. His burning enthusiasm eventually convinced Mariko to join his research. But this Waka research was still too much even for a determined man like him to accomplish within his lifetime. Those in the living world never knew Mariko and her companions' last wishes. A few hundred years later, she finally finished documenting the life of the legendary poet, Ootomo no Kazuha. |

本作のオリジナルキャラクター。 古代の歌人の精神が、和歌集と一体化した存在。 人々を救いたがる野心家だが、その性格は生前の本人のそれとは異なっている。それは、自身に綴られたさまざまな作者たちの歌、そして何より、復活のために鞠子が加えた大量の附註・加筆の影響である。
だが、それだけではない。 家珠葉の狙いはそこにあった。 幻想郷という、日本の山奥でありながら、どこでもない土地。 ……あろうことか、人間を遠隔地へ送り届ける力として。 遠い場所を想い焦がれ、しかし訪れられないでいる人間たちを救うこと、それは、彼女という書物の存在意義、編集意図に他ならなかった。 生前の家珠葉をはじめとする、遠い所の相手への思慕に焦がれた人々の、恋の歌。 神隠し、あるいはテレポーテーションを、神秘から解き放つ。

One of the original characters from this fangame. An amalgamation formed by an ancient poet's spirit and their Waka collection. She's a lady of ambitions who is devoted to saving humankind, but she was a completely different person compared to who she is now. Map Orb is a kind of device that was made to transfer what its owner had envisioned, including their emotions and imaginations drawn by such vision, to Kazuha. But she's not just going for a replica. This is Kazuha's real objective. Gensokyo, a land that exists deep in the Japanese mountains, but also a land that never existed. ... and all she wants to do with such incredible power is to help humans travel to lands far from their own homes. Her whole life, Kazuha had been filled with love poems that expressed the yearning from people who loved each other from a long distance, along with The mystery behind the "spiriting away" phenomenon (teleportation, in other words) was about to be solved. Eventually, Kazuha failed all her attempts. However, humans nowadays are no longer as helpless as the ones who lived in Kazuha's era. |

本作のオリジナルキャラクター。 曰く付きの碁盤が変じた付喪神。 碁石から生まれた無数の目玉を持っており、碁盤のような所}の上であれば、自由に設置することができる。 まあ、人間にとって身近な碁盤のような所というのは、せいぜい障子とか、格子造りの民家ぐらいである。
それほどの広範囲に目玉を展開できるだけの力をくれるというのだから、目々が快諾しないわけがなかった。 目目連というのは無害な妖怪だ。厳姫もそれを解っていたし、何なら神の力があれば人間を襲う動機すら無いはずだ。
広い地域が対象なら、そこで囲碁が行われている状態にすれば良い。そう、すなわち幻想郷を二色の陣取りゲームの舞台へと変えるということだったのだ。
そして、未見の協力もあって、ゲームは社会現象にまで登りつめてくれた。 ――さあ、もっともっと、目玉を増やし、競争を激化させなくては。 |
One of the original characters in this fangame. A Tsukumogami spawned from an antique Go board that had interesting stories attached to it. She possesses countless eyeballs spawned from Go stones, and she can set those eyeballs freely on any places that match a Go board pattern. It may sound like a strong ability in theory, but in practice, Go board-esque objects are rather rare in human environments. A few moments ago, she was visited by a divine spirit named Izuhime, Since they promised her such immense power that would allow her to deploy eyeballs on a scale that she could've never imagined, she accepted their terms without a second thought. Mokumokuren is the kind of youkai that doesn't mean any harm. Izuhime knows the fact as well that unless it's by God's will, there shouldn't be any reasons for Mokumokuren to attack humans. But Izuhime and her companies overlooked Meme's true intention when she suggested the Go board design. The objective of a Go game is to occupy more spaces. So for her to define this large area as a Go board, all she needs to do is to create a situation where it's like a real Go game is being played. Mémé quickly mapped out the rules for the "Map Orb Game." With Mimi's assistance, the game gradually became a social phenomenon. Set more eyeballs, create more competitions. This is what ought to be done. |
