Hello! I'm Enoko Mitsugashira. I'm under orders from Lady Saki to gather intel. I could really use your help. What do you say?
Introduction
Found you! You're Hakurei Shrine's new freeloader, right? I'm Enoko Mitsugashira. I'm under orders from Lady Saki to gather intel. Hm... you're too puny to join the Keiga Family. You have to be at least as strong as Marisa for Lady Saki to accept you. You're a bit of a letdown. Aww, don't make those puppy dog eyes at me. Now I can't tell which of us is the dog. I know, why don't you help me gather intel? ...There's that smile!
Purple Heart
I'd love to be a wolf spirit. They're spirits so their coats are always super fluffy.
Blue Heart
Let's make ourselves fluffy with the wolf spirits! It'll be so much fun!
Green Heart
The Keiga Family really is all about power. But if that's all they care about, I feel like it leaves them vulnerable... I wonder if my traps will help keep us safe.
Orange Heart
Or maybe I should train as hard as I can and become as strong as Lady Saki. I feel like that plan kinda suits me more... but whenever I look at Lady Saki, I just know I'll never get that strong.
Pink Heart
*gasp* Did Lady Saki send me away so I could find the answer myself? Did she order me to gather intel so I could decide between going all out on muscles and finding a balance between muscles and wit? Did she really think of all that...? Nah, no way!
Summer
Do you know Miss Kagerou? She wears long sleeves even when it's this hot. She's so mysterious and cool!

Hey there, how you been? If you find anything today, let me know. We gotta stay sharp so Marisa doesn't get all the good stuff.
Enhancement
Yay! The jaws of my bear traps just got even grizzlier!
Return
I'm baaaack! That walk was fun. I wanna go on another one. Battling was fun too!
Home 1
There are other magicians besides Marisa living in the Forest of Magic, but they should look up to me. I might not look it, but I'm actually a super old yamainu!
Home 2
I attained a long lifespan and became a youkai thanks to Lady Zanmu. I'm not sure if she intended to help me, but that's what happened.
Home 3
Lady Saki is bold but she completely neglects battles of wits. I'm not the smartest either, but what's great about me is that I help her out with that stuff while trying to increase my own fire power!
Reaction 1
You wanna use my lap as a pillow? Sure! Wanna snuggle my tail, too? Which one?
Reaction 2
I let Lady Saki sleep on my lap when she's tired from training.
Reaction 3
She looks so cute clinging onto my tail while she sleeps. *pats head*
Task
Huh? You're doing tasks? Why? ...You want me to watch? Got it.
Task Complete
You finished your task... I don't know why you did it, but I'll give you a reward. *ruffles hair*
Mail
Mail's here. It was addressed to you, so I brought it here! That means it's your turn to pat my head.
Errand Finished
Someone's back from a walk. I wonder if they had fun. I wanna go for a walk!
Start of Battle
Let's do this! I'll bite you to death!
Mid-Wave
I wonder what kind of people I'll find outside the forest.
Victory
That was such a letdown. Be sure to train hard before our next battle!
Defeat
*whimper* I lost. I'm not done yet, though! Let's battle agaaaain!

Character Information
Temperament: Niwaka-ame
Niwaka-ame (a Touhou LW original) refers to sudden rain showers that stop almost as soon as they start. This is an apt temperament for Enoko, who's often described as Cerberus, the guard dog of Hell. She's endowed with Moon Essence, as she comes from a place filled with magical power, and Water Phase, the temperament of the Forest of Magic.
The cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence resists the alluring and arrogant Sun Essence, but it is weak to the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence.
The flexible and patient Water Phase resists Metal Phase, because metal collects water, but it is weak to Earth Phase, because earth directs water.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of manipulating traps
The ability of Enoko Mitsugashira, the immortal yamainu. Although Enoko has been alive for hundreds of years, she only became immortal somewhat recently. Prior to that, she was supposedly nothing more than an extremely elderly yamainu. However, the jewel pendant she received from Zanmu purified her and bestowed immortality upon her. There are many questions surrounding her jewel, but very few answers. All that can be said currently is that it looks almost identical to Seiran's Lunar Jewel, and its effects are reminiscent of Lunar technology.
As far as dog youkai go, inugami, dog spirits who possess their victims, are perhaps the most famous. The way in which Enoko was cursed and became unable to die is similar to Son Biten's transformation into an oni, with both processes being comparable to possession.
Okuri-inu are another type of dog youkai, who live in the mountains and protect people from other youkai. Perhaps Enoko watched over Marisa when she came to the Forest of Magic because of her okuri-inu nature. After all, the Forest of Magic is a highly dangerous place, and it's not like Marisa's always possessed the brutal firepower she has today. It might be the case that a young Marisa was only able to survive in the forest because Enoko was watching over her, hidden out of sight...
Attacks
Death Bite
The Spread Shot of Enoko Mitsugashira (a Touhou LW original). She bites ferociously in this attack. The Forest of Magic is famed for being home to magicians. Long ago, a yamainu with an already long lifespan was granted immortality. That yamainu was Enoko, and she was afraid that as the years dragged on, she would wither with age, but fate had the opposite in store for her. This surprising twist came as a result of the jewel that Zanmu Nippaku bestowed upon her.
Bullets

Hell's Big Bear Trap
Hell's Great Bear Trap
Hell's Huge Bear Trap
Hell's Massive Bear Trap
Hell's Ultimate Bear Trap
Doggy Crunch
The Focus Shot of Enoko Mitsugashira (a Touhou LW original). She crunches her jaws ferociously in this attack. The reason Enoko had a long lifespan to begin with was because she ate Zanmu's flesh, who was still human at the time. This cursed Enoko, extending her life. When Zanmu was reunited with Enoko having become a human oni, she didn't get angry at her. In fact, she thanked her. Getting bitten by Enoko was part of her plan to gather people to do her bidding.

Magic Dog's Big Bite
Magic Dog's Great Bite
Magic Dog's Huge Bite
Magic Dog's Massive Bite
Magic Dog's Ultimate Bite
Three Heads: Cerberus Fire
A Spell Card of Enoko Mitsugashira. She summons flames that resemble the guard dog of Hell. Enoko intentionally ate a chunk of Zanmu's human flesh, so being cursed with the inability to die was her own fault. But Zanmu provided Enoko with salvation when she used a certain jewel to grant her immortality. For Zanmu, doing so was also an act of forgiveness, after which she believed it was only a matter of time before Enoko pledged loyalty to her... but it seems Enoko was conflicted.

Hell Hound's Great Flame
Hell Hound's Huge Flame

Hell Hound's Ultimate Flame
Hell Hound: Clipper Cerberus
A Spell Card of Enoko Mitsugashira (a Touhou LW original). This striking move resembles that of a yamainu whose strength has been unleashed. Enoko infiltrated the Keiga Family as a spy for Zanmu. Their leader, Saki Kurokoma, was happy to accept Enoko, who she referred to as the Cerberus of Hell. Enoko thought she was exaggerating, but it spoke volumes for Saki's strength of character.
Bullets
Magic Dog's Clip
Magic Dog's Big Clip
Magic Dog's Great Clip
Magic Dog's Huge Clip
Magic Dog's Massive Clip
Magic Dog's Ultimate Clip
Hell Hound's Magic Forest
The Last Word of Enoko Mitsugashira (a Touhou LW original). She recalls her territory in this attack. Before eating Zanmu's flesh, Enoko was just a regular yamainu. After eating it, she became a yamainu youkai cursed with an extremely long life. Now, thanks to the power of a special jewel, she lives as an immortal yamainu.
The first stretch of time with her extended lifespan was peaceful for Enoko. But what followed were days spent in fear of never dying and watching as her strength dwindled. After becoming immortal, she found herself filled with loyalty but also doubt as her days grew ever more extraordinary. From there, she was introduced to members of the Keiga Family and, eventually, everyone who lived in Gensokyo. Given everything she'd been through, it's not hard to imagine how happy that made her.
