Character Information

Temperament: Mikazuki

Mikazuki (a Touhou LW original) refers to the moon on the third night of the lunar calendar, as well as the phase of the new moon before it waxes half full. The crescent moon is an apt temperament for Yorihime's astute and dignified personality. Yorihime is endowed with Wood Phase, with her flexible spiritual nature that allows her to house various gods, and Moon Essence, which is calm and collected. The strong and kind Wood Phase resists Water Phase, because water nourishes wood, but it is weak to Metal Phase, because metal carves wood. The cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence resists the alluring and arrogant Sun Essence, but it is weak to the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence.

Ability/Backstory: Capable of summoning divine spirits

Watatsuki no Yorihime's ability allows her to summon divine spirits and house them within her body. Considering the fact that she summoned the ruler of the Yaoyorozu no Kami, Amaterasu, the goddess of the sun, there may not be any gods that she cannot summon. However, it is unknown what would happen if she tried to summon Kanako in Gensokyo, her superior Lord Tsukuyomi, or Hecatia Lapislazuli. It is also unknown whether she can summon just a portion of their power or not. Regardless, her ability is undeniably powerful. According to Yorihime herself, the number of different Yaoyorozu no Kami she can summon is eight million. (Yaoyorozu means both eight million and countless in Japanese.)

Attacks

Skills

Skill: Ame no Torifune's Aid

A ship ridden by gods and also a god in and of itself. It is fast and powerful, kind of like a spaceship.

Skill: Amatsumara's Aid

Power up by borrowing the god of blacksmiths' strength. This god doesn't have any connection with Kogasa... probably.

Skill: Evil-Slaying Arrow

A god's curse was placed on this arrow so that it would pierce the chest of one with evil in their heart. This myth may be connected to a certain amanojaku.
