Saiun (a Touhou LW original) refers to iridescent clouds, an optical phenomenon that occurs when clouds appear near the sun and are lit up in rainbow colors. Humans seem to think that seeing these clouds is good luck, making this an apt temperament for a hermit. Kasen is endowed with Metal Phase, from how she seems to be hiding some secrets, and Sun Essence, from her strong sense of morality. The cold and silent Metal Phase resists Earth Phase, because earth bears metal, but it is weak to Fire Phase, because fire refines metal. The alluring and arrogant Sun Essence resists the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence, but it is weak to the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence.
Kasen Ibaraki's ability lets her speak and communicate with animals. Kasen lives with many animals, including giant eagles, raiju, a tiger, and even a young dragon. She loves all animals and devotes herself to protecting them. She is also a hermit, which puts her in a position to lead humans, but come to think of it, humans are also just another kind of animal... Her hermitry may be a bit different from most. She can also use various senjutsu because of her hermitry. She is definitely one of the most powerful hermits in Gensokyo, with her own private Senkai and her ability to hide the path to her home using fangshu. Her personality also befits her stature, as expected of a virtuous hermit.
Kasen Ibaraki's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). This attack uses jintsuu, or transcendental power, to shoot bullets of air. The transcendental power mentioned here refers to supernatural techniques only obtainable through virtuous living and meditation. Kasen has this power because she is a hermit. Hermits have a very complicated history.
Kasen Ibaraki's Focus Shot. Kasen uses Kanda, one of her pet giant eagles, to attack her targets. Apparently, the name Kanda comes from the name of a hermit in a certain book of tales.
Kasen Ibaraki's Spell Card. She positions her bandaged arm to make it look like a dragon and shoots out compressed qi in this senjutsu attack. Its force is as intense as a bellowing dragon.
Kasen Ibaraki's Spell Card. She uses her unwrapped bandage to make a false arm, wrap up a large rock and throw it with senjutsu. This is normally a technique which binds and strikes its target, but this time, it has been devised with long-range attacks in mind. Proteus is the name of an ancient Greek sea god, which is where the word protean (meaning versatile or mutable) comes from. Perhaps the name of this attack is referencing the arm's changing forms.
Kasen Ibaraki's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). Kasen imbues her bandaged arm with scorching heat before spearing her ultra hot hand through her target to make them explode. The name of the attack comes from an old Japanese poem.
