Gacha Pickup
I'm Sakuya Izayoi. Do you know how to use knives? I'm good at more than just magic tricks... Teehee.
Introduction
Is this a parallel world? That's not too surprising considering what I can do with my ability. However, I'm awfully jealous of how there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this Gensokyo's seasons. You there, do you know how the incident got resolved? I'm Sakuya Izayoi, a maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion. The never-ending winter has depleted our stocks of fuel and food, and I have to do something about it as soon as possible.
Purple Heart
So the incident wasn't prolonged in this world. I thought as much.
Blue Heart
It seems Yuyuko isn't the one prolonging the incident.
Green Heart
I'm sure Yuyuko wants to quickly bring the incident to an end by gathering enough spring. So there must be someone else in the know who's purposefully prolonging it.
Orange Heart
Even though I've worked all this out, I can't think of a single likely suspect. Everyone in Gensokyo is too laid-back to try and plot something like this. Gensokyo is nice and peaceful, but this makes it all the more strange that the incident is dragging on.
Pink Heart
It's quite possible that the incident has been prolonged due to outside interference from a parallel world. But for that, you'd need a very specific power. Parallel worlds are basically separate timelines, so the most obvious culprit... would be none other than me.
Summer
I genuinely started to panic when winter kept on going even when it was supposed to be the middle of summer. We ran out of fuel, but luckily we were able to keep the mansion warm thanks to Lady Patchouli's fire magic.
Login
Every maid needs a good knife, but they also have other uses. Hmm.... I'll tell you about them when you're a bit older.
Enhancement
My knives have gotten sharper. This should make work easier.
Return
I'm glad we made it back safely again. I brewed some coffee, so let's take a break.
Home 1
I'm like a detective, you say? No, I'm more like the polar opposite. Though perhaps that's why I'm so good at pretending to be one. If only there weren't so many possible suspects in Gensokyo...
Home 2
The one who prolonged the incident must've known that Yuyuko Saigyouji was going to cause the incident before it happened. Who could've possibly known that?
Home 3
When you consider the possible motives and means for prolonging the incident... the prime suspect would be that winter youkai. But the only connection she has with Yuyuko is that their personalities are somewhat similar.
Reaction 1
I suppose my mistress also has the means and a motive...
Reaction 2
...Oh, you fell asleep on my lap. *pats head*
Reaction 3
(Is this what it's like to have a little sister?)
Task
Are you doing tasks? You should get Lady Patchouli to take a look at them for you.
Task Complete
You finished your tasks without having to ask Lady Patchouli for help? Wow, good job.
Mail
Check the mail... Oh, sorry, I mistook you for a fairy maid.
Errand Finished
The girls are back from an errand. I wonder if they found any coal.
Start of Battle
I know you're there... Show yourself.
Mid-Wave
That should teach you. Now, return the spring you stole.
Victory
So you're saying I had to endure all that cold for such a petty reason?
Defeat
How annoying. Why don't you come back half a day earlier?
Spellcard 1 Chant 1
I can't maintain my high work standards
all the time. I only have so much patience.
Spellcard 1 Chant 2
*sigh* What a pain. I'll just
clean everything up at once.
Spellcard 1 Casted
Illusion Sign: Indiscriminate
Spellcard 2 Chant 1
My mistress will start to
worry if I take too long.
Spellcard 2 Chant 2
I only brought three changes of clothes,
so I can't waste time dealing with you.
Spellcard 2 Casted
Illusion Sign: Killer Doll
Last Word Chant 1
In sucking up spring, the Netherworld
became something like an isolated world.
Last Word Chant 2
I will see the flowers bloom in Gensokyo.
Are you ready, rotting princess?!

Character Information
Temperament: Youkaten
Youkaten (a Touhou LW original) refers to early spring when various flowers bloom and the weather is usually overcast. This is a fitting temperament for Sakuya, who must reclaim spring for the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Sakuya is endowed with Metal Phase, due to her skills with knives, and with Moon Essence, as a vampire's servant.
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 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: Mainly capable of manipulating time
The ability of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter (a Touhou LW original). It is essentially the same as our version of Sakuya's ability. However, despite having this ability, this world's Sakuya is yet to resolve the Spring Snow Incident.
The Scarlet Devil Mansion has shut itself off from the world in a vain attempt to escape the cold. Their stocks of fuel are running out, and they can barely procure enough food... Even if Sakuya braved the journey to the Human Village, she'd find them in no better shape. Silence has come over Gensokyo... accompanied by the increasingly pervading stench of death.
The incessant snowy weather reminds Sakuya of a city where it's always cloudy. Perhaps this incident can't be resolved by mindlessly retrying over and over again. The spring might not return until someone figures out what caused the incident to last so long. This not-so-ordinary maid continued to think about how out of the ordinary this incident was...
Sakuya is a mysterious maid who, despite being human, lives in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Perhaps she holds a secret that will let her unravel the mysteries of this incident.
Sakuya's Illusion Sign loadout includes knife-themed bombs and two more knife attacks―one that covers a wide area and one that homes in on her targets. Her plan was to skillfully switch between the two depending on whether she needed to deal with multiple enemies or snipe single targets. However, she later realized that this strategy falters against fast-moving opponents. There's only one way to see if another loadout would be more effective, and that's to try it for real. Then again, perhaps using the attacks she's used to is still her best bet...
Attacks
Jack the Ludo Bile (Cherry Blossom)
The Spread Shot of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter. In true magician fashion, she scatters knives over a wide area. Ludo Bile refers to the belladonna plant, whose name means "beautiful lady." It's known for its black-colored berries that are sweet yet toxic. The name of this attack seems to suggest that Sakuya's mysterious past hides some dark secrets.
Bullets
Beautiful Lady Slash (Cherry Blossom)
Beautiful Lady Flash (Cherry Blossom)

Beautiful Lady Ambush (Cherry Blossom)
Beautiful Lady Surprise (Cherry Blossom)
Jack the Ripper (Cherry Blossom)
The Focus Shot of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter. In true magician fashion, she throws homing knives in this attack. Jack the Ripper is the name ascribed to the unidentified villain who spread terror across the fog-covered streets of London. The case was never solved, leading to many theories and fantasies about the true nature of the crimes and the culprit. It goes without saying that there is no known connection between Jack the Ripper and Sakuya.

Illusion Sign: Indiscriminate
A Spell Card of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter. She throws extremely large knives all around her. It feels especially bad to be on the receiving end of an attack that's indiscriminate. As a maid, Sakuya is really good at taking out the trash. This is perhaps one of the reasons why Remilia, her vampire mistress, values her service so highly.
Bullets
Indiscriminate Night Crime
Indiscriminate Twilight Crime
Indiscriminate Predawn Crime
Indiscriminate Crime in the Dark

Indiscriminate Late Night Crime
Illusion Sign: Killer Doll
A Spell Card of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter. She snipes her enemies with extremely large knives. No one knows why Sakuya gave this name to her Spell Card, but it's just as menacing as the last. What is certain, however, is that Sakuya is often considered to be like a puppet in the way she obeys her mistress's orders without question. In fact, Sakuya has also been likened to a dog by some people... and not in a good way.

Concession Murderer
The Last Word of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter (a Touhou LW original). She throws knives imbued with winter temperament. Actions performed within a closed-off world leave no perceptible trace to those outside it. Sakuya holds a certain amount of professional respect for the one who cleanly prolonged this incident while maintaining their anonymity. As somewhat the opposite of a detective, she feels like she's placed in the perfect position to find the true mastermind. No one else even comes close. With thoughts of her mistress shivering within the freezing Scarlet Devil Mansion ever on her mind, Sakuya once more sets out to face Yuyuko at Hakugyokurou.
