Remnant of an Extinct God
The usual outfit of the soulless Suwako from the lost world. It looks similar to a Fantasy Rebirth costume but frayed and tattered.

Shiroi Tsuyu (a Touhou LW original) refers to a white rainy season. Without a rainy season, the land would dry out. Humans would have to till and irrigate it themselves. But that is what humans want. She is a fragment of Suwako Moriya, a god who creates earthiness (strong against Earth Phase) and does not display her power openly (strong against Moon Essence).
The ability of Suwako Moriya from the lost world of spirits (a Touhou LW original). She has completely lost her ability and has forgotten everything about herself. Even though this Suwako has lost all her memories that relate in any way to who she was previously, she has retained her general knowledge and common sense. She believes herself to be nothing but an ordinary human. However, she has retained the sense that she was never one to fuss over little details. She feels that she would never curse a soul and that she full-heartedly enjoys playing with others regardless of their status or age. Even to her, this seems remarkably childish, but these feelings are more precious to her than anything. She does not want to lose them. Historically, play has been an integral element of human culture. What would humans be if they didn't play? Would they live solely for the purpose of achieving goals, ignoring all else? That would make them no different from other animals. Hunting, agriculture, cooking, art, city-building, and science all started with play, and play is how they evolved and flourished. Life, like civilization, is one giant game. Are you playing? Are you having enough fun? You probably feel that you don't play as much as you used to. It shouldn't take you long to realize why. And when you do... a god somewhere loses yet another play-buddy.
The Spread Shot of Suwako Moriya from the lost world of spirits (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with the power of a lost ancient god. This Suwako cannot shoot bullets, just like how normal humans can't. While she may be able to throw things or use tools to fire projectiles, she cannot deploy patterns of bullets in line with the battle of bullets rules. It's almost like the muscles that let her do that in the past have wasted away. No, it's worse than that. She has become completely detached from the events around her, unable to realize that the girls happily battling with bullets have anything to do with her.
The Focus Shot of Suwako Moriya from the lost world of spirits (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with the power of a lost ancient god. It's perfectly normal to think that you cannot fly. If you ever feel like you're flying, you probably wouldn't assume it's due to your own power. You'd think that something else was making you fly, and it would feel uncomfortable. Most people wouldn't try to figure out why this was happening or try to stop it. They'd just wait it out until, eventually, they got used to it.
A Spell Card of Suwako Moriya from the lost world of spirits (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with the curse of a lost god. Gods are beings worshipped by humans, and they first appeared in answer to human prayers. In other words, without humans, there would be no gods. Humans may grow over time, but as time passes, they also lose their aspirations, desires, and other things that will never return.
A Spell Card of Suwako Moriya from the lost world of spirits (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with the lost faith in native gods. What use do gods have of ostentatious rituals and expensive offerings? What they really want is genuine rituals and offerings from the heart.
The Last Word of Suwako Moriya from the lost world of spirits (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with lost spirit power. There are many definitions for what it means to be human, and there is no single correct one. However, there's a good argument to be made for homo ludens―the idea that, for humans, the play element of culture and society is of primary importance. The same could be said about gods. Gods are only gods because they play. If gods stop playing, humans will cast them aside.
"I can't force myself to remember things I've forgotten. I'll just have to adapt."
"The name Suwako Moriya makes me think of the earth. It's comforting..."
"Curse you? Why would I curse anyone? Hmm, I suppose if I did end up cursing someone, it would be out of love."
