○楽園の素敵な巫女 博麗霊夢（はくれいれいむ） 種族：人間 住処：博麗神社 能力：空を飛ぶ程度の能力 いつもの博麗神社の巫女さん。何も考えずその場のノリで毎日を生き ている。巫女さんらしい行動といえば、縁側でお茶を飲んで日和る位。 非常に単純な思考の持ち主で、怒る時は怒り、笑う時は笑う。裏表の ない性格は、人間妖怪問わず惹き付ける。その為、神社はいつも色んな 者が集まるのである。 体術にしても妖術にしても、修行は不足気味（というか殆どしない） だが、余りある天性のセンスでカバーしていて、もの凄く強い。それは もう、人とは思えない位に。ワープしていたり、ホーミングしていたり するが、本人はまっすぐ動いているつもり。ずるい巫女さん。 |
•The Lovely Shrine Maiden of Paradise 博麗霊夢 （はくれいれいむ） Hakurei Reimu Species: Human Residence: Hakurei Shrine Abilities: Can fly to a certain degree The usual Hakurei Shrine maiden. Without ever carefully thinking anything over, living each day one at a time. Speaking of Shrine maiden-like behavior, the weather on the porch is quite fitting for drinking tea. The owner of an extremely simple way of thinking, when it's time to get mad, she gets mad, when it's time to laugh, she laughs. With such a straightforward and honest personality, regardless of whether she were a human or a youkai, she would be quite charming and attractive. Because of this, the shrine always has various visitors gathering. Whether it's martial arts or black magic, there is a lack of knowledge (actually a complete lack of knowledge), but with her Heaven-granted genius to cover her, she's insanely formidable. That's a position that most people can't conceive of. She can warp, she can home in, but her true self only plans to move straight ahead. The crafty shrine maiden. |
○普通の魔法使い 霧雨魔理沙（きりさめまりさ） 種族：人間 住処：魔法の森にある霧雨邸 能力：魔法を使う程度の能力 普通の魔法使いさん。人が余り寄りつかない魔法の森にある家に籠も って、日々魔法の研究を続けている。 性格は、負けず嫌いで意地の悪い所もあるが、根は真っ直ぐ。何処に 行っても迷惑がられるが、実際に迷惑な行動も多い。 森に籠もる理由の一つは、人が寄りつかないからである。研究中に邪 魔が入って欲しくないし、人に会いたいときは自分から出掛ければいい。 掛ける専用の携帯電話みたいな物である。でも、余所では色々と邪魔を する。何処に言ってもだ。 スピードとパワーはあるが、体術は余り得意ではない。移動は速くて もいかんせん技が重い。パワーは魔法を纏う事で必要以上にカバーして いる。 |
•An Ordinary Magician 霧雨魔理沙（きりさめまりさ） Marisa Kirisame Species: Human Residence: The Kirisame residence with the Forest of Magic Abilities: Can use magic to a certain degree An ordinary magician. In the Forest of Magic that humans rarely approach, this is a secluded home where everyday, the study of magic continues. Her personality is: she hates to lose, this leads to some bad points, but the cause of this is because she's straightforward. No matter where she goes, she causes trouble, but in all honesty, there are many things that can cause trouble. One reason for her seclusion within the forest is that people don't come so often. Because she doesn't want any miscreants intruding on her research, she has the attitude of "if I want to meet someone I'll go out myself". Something resembling a personal cellphone can be seen hanging. Somewhere else, a lot of trouble is being made. Where could she be calling? She has power and speed, but martial arts isn't her strong point. It can't be helped that she would have some seriously quick and mobile techniques. She is covered by being surrounded with powerful magic. |
○紅魔館のメイド 十六夜咲夜（いざよいさくや） 種族：人間 住処：紅魔館 能力：時を操る程度の能力 紅魔館の住み込みで働くメイドさん。炊事、掃除、洗濯、子守にナイ フ投げと、メイドがやりそうな事は全て完璧にこなす。メイド長。 性格は、瀟洒で完璧そうに見えるが、たまに抜けている所も見せる。 仕事が完璧で速いのは、時間を止めて仕事をしているいるからだと思う が……。 体術も得意とする。むしろ弾幕のような怪しげな術よりも得意な位。 弾幕にも投げナイフを使うのはその為である。それにタネの無い手品が 好きで、戦闘にも積極的に取り入れる。そういう所が抜けている所の様 な気がしてならないが。 |
•Maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion 十六夜咲夜（いざよいさくや） Izayoi Sakuya Species: Human Location: Scarlet Devil Mansion Ability: Controlling time A maid who works and lives in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. She does a maid's duty perfectly: cooking, cleaning, washing, babysitting, knife throwing, etc. Her position is chief maid. Her personality seems perfect and elegant, but sometimes she shows a more spaced-out side. The reason she works so quickly is probably because she stops time to do it, though... She also specializes in physical attacks. Probably even more so than at suspicious tricks like danmaku. This is why she uses throwing knives in her danmaku. In addition, she likes magic that doesn't have tricks to it, so she proactively adopts it into battle. I can't help feeling this point is the odd acts. |
○生命の二刀流 魂魄妖夢（こんぱくようむ） 種族：人間と幽霊のハーフ 住処：冥界にある白玉楼 能力：剣術を使う程度の能力 白玉楼で住み込みで働く庭師。半分人間で半分幽霊、半分生きていて 半分死んでいる、半分実在していて半分幻という半人前。でも剣は二本。 性格は何事にも一所懸命だが、それが報われることが少ない。癖のあ る連中が多すぎる幻想郷では、真っ直ぐ過ぎてからかわれやすい性格で もある。 体術は半人前ながらも非常に優れている。妖術も半人前ながら優れて おり、実はバランスが取れている。妖怪が鍛えたという楼観剣と白楼剣 を操り、敵だろうが霊だろうが弾幕だろうが人の悩みだろうが斬ること が出来る。斬れない物は少ししかない。 楼観剣（長い方）は一振りで幽霊10匹分の殺傷力を持つ。白楼剣は、 人間の迷いを斬る事が出来ると言われているが、勿論、両方とも生身の 人間を斬ることも出来る。 |
•Half-phantom Gardener 魂魄妖夢（こんぱくようむ） Konpaku Youmu Species: Half-human Half-phantom Location: Hakugyokurou in the Netherworld Ability: Fighting with her swords A gardener who works in Hakugyokurou and lives there. She's half-human and half-phantom, half-dead and half-alive, half-phantom and half-reality, and altogether half-baked. Yet she has two swords. She applies herself as hard as she can to anything and everything, but it hardly ever pays off. Compared to the quirky cast of characters that inhabits Gensokyo, her all too straightforward personality is very easy to understand. She's very good at fighting arts for someone so half-baked. She's also quite good at magic for such a half-baked character, and actually has a good sense of balance between the two. Using the Roukanken and Hakurouken, which were said to be forged by youkai, she can cut through enemies and phantoms and bullets and people's worries. The things she can't cut through are next to none. Roukanken (the longer one) has the power to kill ten phantoms in one slash. Hakurouken is said to be able to cut through people's confusion, but of course, both of them can also kill living humans. |
○動かない大図書館 パチュリー・ノーレッジ 種族：魔女 住処：紅魔館 能力：魔法（主に精霊魔法）を扱う程度の能力 紅魔館に住み着く魔女。この家の主人とは異なり、日光には弱くない が余り出歩かない。生活している図書館も日光が届かない所にある。こ れは本が傷まない様にする為の配慮であるが、空気は良くない為、健康 に良くない。 性格も積極的な方ではなく、常に我が道を行く。ただ、好奇心は高く 知識に関しては積極的に取り入れる。全て本に依る物だが間違いも多い。 器用さは持ち合わせているが、いかんせん非力な上に体術の心得は全 くない。直接殴ったり蹴ったりは殆どしない。その代わり強力で多彩な 魔法を会得している。殴るくらいなら魔法を使った方が楽である。曜日 にあわせて魔法を使い分けるのが密かな趣味であるが、誰もその事には 気が付かない。 |
•The Unmoving Great Library パチュリー・ノーレッジ Patchouli Knowledge Species: Witch Residence: Scarlet Devil Mansion Ability: The ability to use magic (mainly elemental magic) A witch who has settled down in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Unlike the mistress of the house, she is not weak against sunlight; however, she does not go out much. She spends her days in a library where the sunlight cannot reach. This is so that the books won't be damaged, but the unhealthy atmosphere is bad for her health. She doesn't have a very proactive personality, but rather always walks her own path. However, she is always interested where knowledge is concerned and will proactively go and try to acquire it. She does everything by the book, but still makes a lot of mistakes. Although she is quite skillful, her complete lack of physical fighting ability can't be helped. She pretty much never attempts to directly punch or kick her opponent. She makes up for this with her knowledge of a great variety of powerful magic. She's more at ease using magic than trying to attack physically. Dividing the magic she uses according to the days of the week is a secret hobby of hers, but no one has realized this. |
○七色の人形遣い アリス・マーガトロイド 種族：魔法使い 住処：魔法の森にあるそれなりの家（固有名称はない） 能力：魔法を扱う程度の能力 生粋の魔法使いさん。見た目は人間と殆ど同じだが、人間ではない。 所謂、人妖のたぐいである。 彼女の家には所狭しと大量の人形が置かれている。その不気味さは、 たまに迷い込む人間を恐怖に陥れる。不気味な森の中にある、余りにも 異質な人形の家。それは、森がいくら不気味だとしても逃げ出したくな るのも当然の事だ。 性格は、他人に無関心で、魔法に執着しやすい。強気を張っているが 実は臆病な面もある。 体術は至って普通。体を動かすのも魔法も使うのも人並みである。器 用さはかなり高く、大量の人形をあたかも生きているかのように操る事 が出来る。その器用さは幻想郷の中でもピカイチである。 |
•Seven-Colored Puppeteer アリス・マーガトロイド Alice Margatroid Species: Magician Location: Moderate sized house in the Forest of Magic (has no specific name) Ability: Use of Magic A pure magician. While her appearance is almost identical to humans, she is not one. She is a kind of so called humanoid youkai. Her house is crammed with a lot of dolls. The sight is so spooky that it scares rare visitors away. The house of dolls is strangest even in the forest of the bizarre. It's no wonder that they tend to run away from there. Her personality is uncaring towards others, and tends to be obsessed with magic. She pretends that she has a strong attitude, but actually she is kind of a coward in her heart. She is quite average in melee fighting. Both her physical strength and magic powers are average. Instead of that she has very high dexterity, which enables her to control many dolls as if they're living beings. That dexterity shines even among all of Gensokyo. |
○紅い悪魔 レミリア・スカーレット 種族：吸血鬼 住処：紅魔館 能力：運命を操る程度の能力 紅魔館の主人。幼く見えるが実際は５００年以上生きている吸血鬼。 日光に弱く、昼間出歩くには日傘が必要。 性格は子供っぽく、命令一つで何でもしてくれるメイドが居るので、 言いたい放題我儘を言う。力は強大過ぎる程強大なので、周りは良い迷 惑である。 眼にも止まらぬスピード、岩をも砕くパワー、思い通り悪魔を操る魔 法力と言った反則的な身体能力を持ち、小手先のテクニックを無視する。 日光に弱くても、肉体も非常に頑丈に出来ており、蝙蝠一匹分でも残れ ば、いつでも再生可能である。敵に回すと恐ろしいが、余り味方にもし たくない相手である。 |
•Eternally Young Scarlet Moon レミリア・スカーレット Remilia Scarlet Species: Vampire Location: Scarlet Devil Mansion Abilities: Manipulation of fate Master of the Scarlet Devil Mansion. She looks young, but she's actually a vampire who's over 500 years old. Weak against sunlight, she has to take a parasol if she wants to go out in the daytime. Her personality is somewhat childish, and she's got maids who are basically at her beck and call, so she can be as egotistical as she wants. She's immensely powerful, so she can really kick up a fuss. Faster than the eye can follow, strong enough to crush boulders, powerful enough to manipulate demons, she's so strong it's almost not fair, so she doesn't care much for subtle technique. She may be weak against sunlight, but she has a pretty strong constitution, so as long as some bit of her still remains, say, a little bat, she can regenerate any time. She's dreadful to have as an enemy, but she's not exactly the sort of person you'd want as a friend, either. |
○天衣無縫の亡霊 西行寺幽々子（さいぎょうじゆゆこ） 種族：亡霊 住処：冥界にある白玉楼 能力：死を操る程度の能力 あの世で成仏もせずのほほんと暮らす亡霊少女。いつ死んだのか、昔 過ぎてもう思い出せない。成仏できないのは顕界に未練がある為か。 性格は何を考えているのか判らなく、かなり困った行動を取る。真面 目な性格の妖夢は、このお嬢様に振り回されっぱなしである。でも実は 幻想郷の外のこの国を心から愛する愛国者である。 生前も没後も体術の心得は余り無く、亡霊らしくふわふわしている。 動きも全体的にしなやかに動き、曲線が多い。何を考えているのか判ら ないつかみ所が無い攻撃は、気が付いたらいつの間にかやられていると 感じてしまう。 |
•The Ghost of Flawless Immaculate Beauty 西行寺幽々子（さいぎょうじゆゆこ） Saigyouji Yuyuko Species: Ghost Location: Hakugyokurou in the Netherworld Ability: Ability to the extent of manipulating death A cheerful ghost maiden who won't go to Heaven and lives in the Netherworld. She can't remember when she died, because she's been dead for a long time. The reason why she can't rest in peace is that she must have left her regret in the human world. She's so carefree that she often acts tricky. Because of this, the straightforward Youmu is always troubled by this princess. But to tell the truth, she loves this nation outside of Gensokyo from the bottom of her heart. She's not good at physical attacks before and after death. Like other ghosts, she's always floating. She moves smoothly like a curve. You'll find yourself being defeated all of a sudden since her attack is too mysterious. |
○幻想の境界 八雲紫（やくもゆかり） 種族：妖怪 住処：不明 能力：境界を操る程度の能力 幻想郷の妖怪。文字通り妖しくて怪しい。幻想郷の境にある屋敷にす むと言うが、その場所は知られていない。何故か外の世界にも詳しい。 非常に胡散臭い。 性格は理解不能だが、決して良い物ではないという所はは誰もが認め る所である。出来る限りなら会いたくないと思われている。普段は霊夢 位しかまともに相手をしてくれない。 体術も、人間の基準とは異なる動きをする。速くもなく重くもない。 強いのか弱いのかすら計り知れない。遊ばれている様に見える紫の行動 は、例え勝ったとしてもなんか腹立たしい。 しかしながら、彼女ほど幻想郷と真摯に接し、幻想郷を愛している者 もいない。 |
•Border of Phantasm 八雲紫（やくもゆかり） Yukari Yakumo Species: Youkai Location: Unknown Ability: Manipulation of boundaries A youkai living in Gensokyo. As these letters (妖怪) tell, she is dubious and suspicious. It's said that she lives in a mansion located at the edge of Gensokyo, but nobody knows where it really is. For some reason she knows a lot about the outside world too. That makes her very suspicious. Her personality is hardly understandable, but everyone agrees that it's not something pleasant. Many people don't want to meet her, if possible. Usually, only Reimu bothers to deal with her. Her fighting style is completely different from a human's measure. It's neither fast nor heavy-hitting. It is uncertain whether she is really tough or not. Her attitude makes you think as if you're being teased by her, which is really irritating even if you manage to defeat her. However, no one can match her in sincerely caring about Gensokyo, and loving it with all her heart. |
○萃まる夢、幻、そして百鬼夜行 伊吹萃香（いぶきすいか） 種族：鬼 住処：鬼の住むと言われる国（現在は幻想郷のどこかにいる） 能力：密と疎を操る程度の能力 幻想郷にはいないとされる鬼。彼女はその鬼だと言う。 鬼は一般的に陽気で酒好き、勿論宴も大好き、人間との真剣勝負が大 好きで、勝負事なら格闘だろうが呑み比べだろうが何でもする。気に入 った人間を見つけると人間が用意したルールで戦おうとする。そして、 勝負に勝つとその人間を攫って行くのである。 鬼は楽しいと思ってやっていた事だが、人間はそれを楽しむすべを知 らなかった。どれも人間が敵うレベルでは無かったからである。本当は 人間も鬼に勝つぐらい強くなれば、互いに楽しむことも出来たのだが、 それもしなくなった。そればかりか人間は、卑怯な策で鬼を一網打尽し ようとした。 鬼が人を攫うのは、人間の恐怖心の象徴であり、それが鬼の存在理由 でもある。人間にとってもその恐怖心は必要だったのだが……それを、 人間は全て自分達の都合で一方的に壊してしまったのだ。 鬼は、繰り返される卑怯な鬼の乱獲により、そんな人間達を永遠に見 捨て人間の手の届かない場所に移り住んだ、と伝えられていた。もう、 鬼の姿を見ることは無かった。 彼女はその鬼だと言う。 確かに陽気で酒好き、三日置きに宴会を行わせる位宴会好きである。 今回何故この様な事をしたかという話は、ゲーム中で語っているのでこ こでは語らない。でも本当は、鬼と人間の信頼関係を取り戻したかった のである。では何故それが失敗したかというと……？ それもゲーム中 で最後に語っている通りである。 性格は上で言っている通り陽気で酒好き。無邪気で非常に単純。大勢 と一緒にいると場が明るくなるが、二人っきりで長くいると段々とうざ くなる。というか非常に子供っぽい。 能力は、密と疎を操る事が出来る。如何なる物も、集めたり散らした り出来る。人の想いを集めれば、宴会のようなものを開かせることも出 来るし、自分を散らせば霧のような状態になることも出来る。妖霧は非 常に薄い彼女なのだ。新しく力を生むのではなく、その場に在るものを 集めたり散らしたりするだけだが、集めることで別の物に変化させるこ とも出来る。それは特殊な創造の能力に近い。さすがは失われた鬼の力、 と言われるだけの事はある。 身体能力も非常に優れており、力、スピード、妖力、全てにおいて人 間を遙かに上回る。唯一の弱点は、萃香のリーチのなさだが、彼女は様 々な手段でそれを補う。人間との決闘が大好きなだけあって、酒に酔っ ていてもめっぽう強い。と言うか酔うほど強い。と言うか酔ってない時 が余りない。 |
•Forgathering dream, illusion, and pandemonium 伊吹萃香（いぶきすいか） Suika Ibuki Species: Oni Location: Some hidden country occupied by oni (currently she's living somewhere in Gensokyo) Ability: Manipulation of density There are supposedly no oni in Gensokyo, but this girl insists that she is an oni. Oni are generally jolly and love to drink, feast, and compete with humans in any kind of contest, from simple melee to drinking games. When they find a human that they like, they tempt that human into challenging them in any way the human desires. Should the human lose, they are abducted. The oni find these games to be great fun, but humans don't appreciate the nature of that fun. Put simply, humans cannot compare to an oni's level of ability. Humans could enjoy themselves as much as the oni if they tried to reach the power level of their opponents, but they don't. Worse still, humans attempt to destroy the oni with underhanded tactics. Abduction by oni used to be a symbol of human fear, which was the oni's reason for being. In a way, that fear was necessary to the human race... Yet, the humans selfishly put an end to it. The oni, growing weary of being duped and killed repeatedly, abandoned humans for all time and moved to a place beyond human reach, or so the legend says. In any case, the oni have not been seen since. This girl insists that she is an oni. She is certainly jolly and loves drinking, and likes feasts so much that she has them every 3 days. The reason for that is given in-game, so I won't mention it here. But to tell the truth, she wants to restore the relationship between humans and oni. Now why did that fail...? That's also mentioned in-game, toward the end. As mentioned above, Suika is jolly and drink loving. Innocent and simple-minded. She raises an upbeat atmosphere in a crowd, but when you're alone with her, you'll gradually become irritated by her childishness. Her ability allows her to control density. She can gather and scatter whatever she desires. By gathering people's sentiments, they will have parties; by scattering herself, she can become as mist. The strange mist that brought about the events of Immaterial and Missing Power was none other than herself, in very thin form. Her ability does not produce some unseen power; she can gather and scatter only that which already exists, but the process occasionally transforms one thing into something completely different. It's kind of close to creation in that way. The long lost power of the oni is truly exceptional. Her physical ability is outstanding as well; her strength, speed, and mystic power all far exceed that of a human's. Her sole weakness is her small stature, but she compensates for that in many ways. Since she loves competition against humans, she is quite tough even when she is drunk. That is to say, the more drunk she is, the tougher she becomes. Or rather, there's hardly a time when she isn't drunk. |
