My name is Ichirin Kumoi, and this is Unzan! You should join Myouren Temple and not the Divine Spirit Mausoleum. We'll be waiting!
Introduction
I'm Ichirin Kumoi, a priest of Myouren Temple and a nyuudou user! This is Unzan, a mikoshi nyuudou. Did Futo try and recruit you just now? I think you should reconsider. Come join Myouren Temple. Lady Hijiri is a very virtuous person. She will lead you, human beings, to salvation. And the one who is sent out to resolve incidents is, of course... No, it's not Murasa!
Purple Heart
You remind me of myself when I was still human.
Blue Heart
I have known Unzan for a long time. We have been together for a thousand years in the Underworld.
Green Heart
If not for that geyser incident, we might still be living in Former Hell. How did that incident happen?
Orange Heart
You're interested in me and not Unzan?! ...Are you sure? That's unusual. People always talk to Unzan. I'm a little embarrassed! What do you want to know?
Pink Heart
My bond with Unzan began with a single phrase. I exterminated Unzan with a spell, but he acknowledged me as the victor and chose to stay with me instead of disappearing. He is my irreplaceable partner... my family.
Summer
You would think that Unzan would be nice and cool in the summer. Clouds seem cool and refreshing, right? But... he's made out of one hundred percent humidity.

I'm on missionary duty again today. But I'm a youkai, so I can't go into the human village ...You've seen quite a few youkai in the village? No, I will follow the rules!
Enhancement
Unzan said his fists feel much better!
Return
That battle we just had, we should've attacked like this... No, more like... Punch! Pow!
Home 1
Boss... Lady Hijiri is busy giving sermons and training the people of the village. So we do the cleaning, laundry, and cooking. This is also part of our training.
Home 2
Nazrin was glancing at me, so I brought her some cheese. She hid it away in her pocket, even though she said she wouldn't eat it.
Home 3
I was talking to Murasa about how Miss Mami is a real mystery. She's never at the temple, and sometimes she surprises me with her transformations... I wonder if she was bored?
Reaction 1
Unzan is fluffy!
Reaction 2
He feels so nice and makes you sleepy.
Reaction 3
Oh, you slept on my lap instead of Unzan.
Task
A task? It's similar to training, right? Can I have a look?
Task Complete
Unzan is surprised by how difficult the task was. I'm surprised too!
Mail
There's a letter for you. Unzan, can you give it to her?
Errand Finished
Someone seems to be back. Let's go greet them!
Start of Battle
This is a part of religious recruitment. It's a part of Lady Hijiri's plan!
Mid-Wave
OK, time to investigate.
Victory
We won! Don't tell me we're actually the strongest?
Defeat
What strength. She must be a very powerful person... Says Unzan.

Character Information
Temperament: Nyuudou-Gumo
Nyuudou-Gumo (A Touhou LW original) refers to a cumulonimbus cloud. This is an apt temperament for Ichirin, who is a nyuudou user. Ichirin is endowed with Water Phase, the element of clouds, and Sun Essence for her honesty and quick wits.
The flexible and patient Water Phase resists Metal Phase, because metal collects water, but it is weak to Earth Phase, because earth directs water.
The alluring and arrogant Sun Essence resists the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence, but it is weak to the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of using nyuudou
Ichirin Kumoi's ability as a nyuudou user. It seems that she uses this ability to cooperate with Unzan, a mikoshi nyuudou.
Ichirin is a youkai known as a nyuudou user and was apparently sealed in the Underworld with Captain Murasa and Unzan before the incident. When Byakuren Hijiri was sealed in Makai for being a demonic chief priest, it is said that humans also sealed Ichirin away as she was one of the youkai who followed Byakuren. For this reason, Ichirin avoids Former Hell and calls it the land of her disgrace. (Although, she sometimes visits the Palace of the Earth Spirits when required). Since Ichirin is a nyuudou user, Unzan is always by her side. (There have been no reports of anyone seeing them separated so far.)
Ichiran encountered Unzan before she was sealed in the Underworld and even before she met Byakuren Hijiri. Ichirin shouted the magic words, "I've seen past you," exposing Unzan's identity as a mere mikoshi nyuudou. However, Unzan's presence greatly changed the fate of Ichirin, who was human. She no longer needed to fear youkai, so she became a youkai known as a nyuudou user. At first glance, this is a dramatic and emotionally complex fate. However, Ichirin does not treat Unzan like a mere servant but more like a partner or father. Likewise, Unzan treats Ichirin not like a master but more like a partner or daughter. This is perhaps because of their deep bond, similar to the bonds of family.
The way Ichirin coordinates with Unzan during battle is reminiscent of Ken no Gohou depicted in the Shigisan Engi scrolls. In particular, the way she manipulates the clouds with a ring is the same. Perhaps Ichirin coordinates with Unzan through her ring. (Further investigation is required).
Attacks
Gliding Treasured Rings
Ichirin Kumoi's Spread Shot. She glides while brandishing her treasured rings. Ichirin often cooperates with Unzan in combat. However, she charges forward on her own in this attack. It is normal for Buddhists to fight to protect the teachings of Buddha, but Ichirin, as a youkai, is also fully capable of fighting on her own. After all, she saw past a mikoshi nyuudou, a youkai that becomes larger the higher you look up.
Bullets

Ring Tackle

Hanging Cloud's Iron Hammer
Ichirin Kumoi's Focus Shot. An attack where Unzan slams his fist to the ground. Unzan is capable of changing shape and size at will! So it is no surprise that he can assault the enemy by transforming into a large fist. He may be a cloud nyuudou, but he's hard-headed and righteous, and his fist is rock hard!

Iron Fist: An Unarguable Youkai Punch
Ichirin Kumoi's Spell Card. An attack that breaks conversation. When competing with Ichirin, you may be assaulted with this attack first. You will be overwhelmed by the impact of Unzan's fists. Be careful not to look up too high and be overwhelmed.

Fist Sign: Heavenly Net Sandbag
Ichirin Kumoi's Spell Card. An attack where Unzan punches the wall. It seems quite difficult to dodge this meticulous barrage of fists. But even if someone avoids the fists, they will still have to deal with debris falling down from the sky.

Heavenly Net Rush
Heavenly Net Barrage
Heavenly Net Jab
Heavenly Net Combination Punch

Traditional Era of a Splendid Old Man
Ichirin Kumoi's Last Word. An attack where Ichirin and Unzan unite as one. In the past, Ichirin once vanquished Unzan, so Unzan decided to follow Ichirin. However, the relationship between the two may be closer to that of a good old father-daughter relationship rather than a master-servant relationship, which goes against how most people treat their familiars and shikigami. The taciturn and loyal Unzan is like a stubborn father who treats the cheerful and earnest Ichirin like his only daughter. This may be the form their bond took after being fostered over a long period of time. Or is it a sign that they have overcome some special trial? The truth lies within their hearts.

Skills
Skill: Golden Ring
Ichirin's favorite ring. When Ichirin swings the ring, Unzan also swings his fist.
Skill: Divine Power Focus
There is a theory that youkai with names relating to monks such as kozou and nyuudou are animals or tools that have acquired a sense of right and wrong.
Skill: Enlargement (Unzan)
There is no limit to how large mikoshi nyuudou can grow. There are also stories of animals like tanuki disguising themselves as mikoshi nyuudou.
