Character Information

Temperament: Shunai

Shunai (a Touhou LW original) refers to mist that appears in spring. This is an apt temperament for Koakuma, who assists in blocking out the sun as Patchouli's familiar. Koakuma is endowed with Star Essence as she is an astral being. The diverse and uncooperative Star Essence resists the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence, but it is weak to the charming and arrogant Sun Essence.

Ability/Backstory: - Ability Unknown -

The ability of Koakuma from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). This Koakuma's ability is unknown, but it doesn't seem all that different from our Koakuma's. However, as one of those responsible for instigating the Scarlet Mist Incident and as a member of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, it's hard to say she's not somehow related to the incident's prolonging. It's unclear whether our Koakuma is Patchouli Knowledge's familiar, and whether or not she was born in Makai is also shrouded in mystery. However, the fact this Koakuma was summoned from Makai and is currently Patchouli's familiar is beyond doubt. This Koakuma doesn't have a name either and is still referred to by her species name. This is because if you were to give her a name, her very nature could change... Furthermore, because she takes the form of a near-pure devil, there are rumors that, initially, she didn't possess a psychical form. The validity of said rumors is uncertain, though. Being skeptical, you could say due to the nature of the magical technique of summoning, it's impossible to prove that the target remains the same after being summoned... In other words, before she was summoned, Koakuma may have had a different appearance, ability, and different memories. Seeing as this is impossible to verify, let's leave it there. However, if you could use the full potential of the flexible and polymorphic nature of devils... prolonging an incident would be a simple task. One wonders whether this world's Patchouli has realized this.

Attacks

Library Fairy Maids

The Spread Shot of Koakuma from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). The library fairy maids attack. Fairies can be found anywhere, but many of those in the Scarlet Devil Mansion are dressed like maids. It isn't clear whether the fairy maids actually perform maid work. Some say they barely do, which is why the head maid is so busy, while others say some fairy maids help clean and prepare the mansion for parties. Even when it comes to work, fairies are free-spirited, and they do exactly as much or as little as they please. It's almost as if they are playing maids. Koakuma (probably) works harder than the fairies, so the ones in the library (should) listen to what she says...

Bullets
  • Reception Maid
  • Library Maid (A to F)
  • Library Maid (G to M)
  • Library Maid (N to T)
  • Library Maid (U to Z)
  • Library Maid (Foreign Books Section)
The Devil's Grimoire

The Focus Shot of Koakuma from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). She uses magic books from Makai in this attack. Are there magic books in Makai too? Every object in Makai is made out of magical matter, and they sometimes exhibit consciousness. This means that any book from Makai is automatically a magic book. The ones used in this attack may actually just be Koakuma's personal diaries.

Bullets
  • Koakuma's Big Book of Prophecies
  • Koakuma's Special Edition
  • Koakuma's Ritual Book
  • Koakuma's Manuscript
  • Koakuma's Rough Draft
  • Koakuma's Literary Fragment
Magic Sign: Witchcraft

A Spell Card of Koakuma from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). She uses her power as a summoned devil in this attack. Are you interested in summoning devils? In the modern age, many methods for summoning them are said to exist (mostly in the outside world). Some gather for ceremonial summonings on their way home from work, while others seek to constantly access the power of devils by wearing talismans. Recently, it seems you can even use shikigami known as "apps" to summon devils. Pretty interesting, right? I can't wait to be summoned by you someday.

Bullets
  • Witch's Summoned Devil
  • Witchcraft Devil
  • Herbal Ritual Devil
  • Scented-Oil Ritual Devil
  • Talisman Devil
  • Amulet Devil
Magic Sign: Devildom Come

A Spell Card of Koakuma from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). She recreates aspects of Makai in this attack. It's said Heaven is a place you go, while the divine kingdom is a place that comes to you. If that's the case, wouldn't Hell be a place you go and Makai be one that comes to you? But what does "come to you" even mean here? In the outside world, there are plans to transform planets to be more Earth-like... It means something similar to that. For devils living abroad, Makai's arrival will be like a homecoming of sorts. How they feel about that, however, surely differs from devil to devil.

Bullets
  • Makai Moon
  • Makai Mercury & Venus
  • Makai Sun & Mars
  • Makai Jupiter & Saturn
  • Makai Fixed Stars & Primum Mobile
  • Makai Empyrean
First Elixir - Cinnabar

The Last Word of Koakuma from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). She recreates the first magic elixir in this attack. It's a naturally occurring scarlet-colored ore known as cinnabar. The sharper ones among you may have just thought to yourself, "Aren't philosopher's stones meant to be scarlet-colored too?" But philosopher's stones can only be created with a miracle and an extensive knowledge of alchemy. They couldn't possibly occur in nature... could they? In reality, there have been no cases of the elixir of immortality being made from cinnabar―at least, no publicly confirmed ones. (Of course, there have been no cases of gold being created either.) Even if a formula for creating the elixir of life did exist, it surely would not be distributed free of charge. As a result, there is no proof that philosopher's stones are made of cinnabar. The mysteries surrounding cinnabar remain elusive.

Bullets
  • Red Cinnabar
  • Scarlet Cinnabar
  • Red Liquid Mercury
  • Crimson Cinnabar
  • Black Cinnabar
  • Scarlet Philosopher's Stone
