I'm Ibaraki-Douji's Arm. You wanna know my relationship with her? Well... we're kinda like twin sisters.
Introduction
...Huh? Can you see me? All of me? Not just my arm? That's strange. Wait, how'd you summon me here anywhere? Well, I guess it doesn't matter 'cause I've got no reason to follow your human rules or morals. I'll turn you into a skeleton, so you can join me as one of my servants. I'm Ibaraki-Douji's Arm, and I'm gonna devour you. ...K-Kasen?! Um, well, you see... She's kinda like my twin sister!
Purple Heart
I'll eat you and turn you into one of my servants. That's what you want too, isn't it?
Blue Heart
I'm an oni. I'm like malevolence incarnate. Lowly humans shouldn't speak to me so lightly.
Green Heart
I thought about how I'm gonna eat you, but there's a slight problem. That shrine maiden's gonna come flying the moment I even try to attack you. I wonder if there's a way I could eat you without her noticing.
Orange Heart
Even though I hardly took any notice of you, I've come to realize how truly distorted your existence is. In fact, I think you've got the potential to become an oni yourself. That's unheard of in this day and age.
Pink Heart
(Even she shouldn't be able to erase me that easily... She put on that whole farce to reseal me after all. I guess I'll just wait and see what happens. I've got no reason to rush.)
Summer
I think I'll go cool down by the lake. Tell me if Kasen gets close. We shouldn't meet right now. I wouldn't mind meeting her if it was just the two of us, though.
Login
(I bet she'll decide to get rid of me if the rumor that she's an oni starts spreading. I've gotta keep it a secret for now. No matter what!)
Enhancement
Power... More POWER! I'll make you regret giving me this! You'll regret it till the end of your days!
Return
*sigh* (Pretending to be her sister all the time is pretty exhausting.)
Home 1
Huh? Why am I an oni while my body... I mean, my twin sister is a hermit? Tch, why do you have to ask such annoying questions?
Home 2
All right, fine! I'll tell you, so stop looking so sad! I just need some time to work out how to answer you best... Argh!
Home 3
In the past, humans became both hermits and oni. So she and I started as the same thing, but then we became different species. I'm not lying.
Reaction 1
(Wait... What on earth is going on?)
Reaction 2
(When did she fall asleep on my lap...?)
Reaction 3
(Don't tell me she usually sleeps on her lap too?)
Task
Really? You're doing tasks? Are you really gonna waste the whole day doing that?
Task Complete
You finished your task? Well done. *goes to pat head* Wait! What am I doing?!
Mail
Mail, huh? That takes me back. Most humans can read nowadays, can't they?
Errand Finished
Someone's back from an errand. This reminds me of my time at Mount Oe. What gifts have they brought us?
Start of Battle
Suffer for eternity in Avici.
Mid-Wave
Is running around that "beauty" you were talking about?
Victory
There's no shame in losing to me. You'll soon become my servant after all.
Defeat
Oh? That's strange. Did you... do something to me just now?

Character Information
Temperament: Kaiun
Kaiun (a Touhou LW original) refers to an unfamiliar or suspicious-looking cloud. This temperament is a perfect representation of Ibaraki-Douji's Arm. She is endowed with Reverse Metal Phase, the element of unveiled secrets, and Reverse Sun Essence, since she vehemently opposes all social norms.
The cold and silent Metal Phase resists Earth Phase, because earth bears metal, but it is weak to Fire Phase, because fire refines metal. Thus, Reverse Metal Phase is weak against Earth Phase and resists Fire Phase.
The alluring and arrogant Sun Essence resists the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence, but it is weak to the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence. Thus, Reverse Sun Essence is weak against Star Essence and resists Moon Essence.
Ability/Backstory: - Ability Unknown -
Not much is known about the ability of Ibaraki-Douji's Arm.
Please refer to a different document if you wish to know how Ibaraki-Douji's Arm acted in the past and who she came into contact with. Only an extremely limited few know the truth: Reimu Hakurei, the Hakurei Shrine Maiden; Kasen Ibaraki, the hermit also known as Ibarakasen; Tenshi Hinanawi, the celestial; and a few officials of Hell. Her nature is obviously that of an oni, but as her name implies, she is not a complete oni. Regardless, she is still an oni, and thus she is a being to be feared who is seldom spoken of. Oni are much more dangerous than your average youkai, and they are ever mysterious. So much so that some people think they should be classified as their own type of creature rather than being lumped together with youkai.
The name Ibaraki-Douji appears in many historical documents, and the name attached to this "arm" probably refers to the same being. More information might be gleaned by referring to those historical documents directly. If there is any instance of an oni named Ibaraki-Douji having their arm cut off, that should be enough to confirm the connection.
The being who calls herself Ibaraki-Douji's Arm looks almost identical to Kasen Ibaraki. This is an undeniable fact. However, it still isn't exactly clear what their connection is... They could be identical twins considering how similar they look. One is a hermit who gathers faith in the Human Village, and the other is a malevolent oni. What is their true relationship?
Attacks
Kishin Shadow-Flame
Ibaraki-Douji's Arm's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). She wields shadow-flame in this attack. Shadow-flame, or "inka," is a type of onibi, a mysterious light that appears near graveyards at night. It may look like oni leave themselves wide open when they attack, but if they hit, their opponents will surely meet a tragic end.

Modoribashi's Abutment
Ibaraki-Douji's Arm's Focus Shot (a Touhou LW original). She hurls a stone pillar at her opponent. Her incredible strength is displayed as she crushes stone with her bare hands. However, this is a simple task for someone who possesses the superhuman might of an oni. That's why the oni exterminators of old preferred to use tricks and exploit the oni's weaknesses rather than face them head-on.

Oni Sign: Rajoumon Corpse Pile
Ibaraki-Douji's Arm's Spell Card (a Touhou LW original). She rains down the skulls of her servants upon her opponents. According to Ibaraki-Douji's Arm, the corpses that lie in Avici, the Hell of unending suffering, are her servants, and they came from all the people she devoured. It isn't known whether she just said this to intimidate her opponent or whether it is actually true. Regardless, this tale is reminiscent of the kishin who torment souls in Hell.

Fake Big Four Arcanum: Annihilation in Three Steps
Ibaraki-Douji's Arm's Spell Card (a Touhou LW original). She buries her opponent under several stone pillars. You could probably tell, but she doesn't even take one step, let alone three. The most notable oni in Gensokyo are Suika Ibuki and Yuugi Hoshiguma. According to Suika, Yuugi is more physically strong, whereas Suika is more skilled with youjutsu (or, more specifically, kijutsu, since she is an oni). Ibaraki-Douji's Arm seems to be rather skilled at both, so perhaps she prefers to use a balanced fighting style that combines both physical strength and youjutsu.

Higekiri to Onikirimaru
Ibaraki-Douji's Arm's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). She reveals her nature as the lost arm of an oni. There are tales of how the warrior, Watanabe no Tsuna, once cut off an oni's arm, and if she is truly that same arm, then she must possess an insatiable thirst for vengeance. However, while her power is utterly malevolent, there seems to be something missing. It's as if she contains all the wickedness possessed by the oni known as Ibaraki-Douji condensed into a smaller form. What could this possibly mean? And if she's just the arm, where is the rest of Ibaraki-Douji...?
