Character Information

Temperament: Senpuu

Senpuu (a Touhou LW original) refers to the vortexes of strong wind called whirlwinds or dust devils. This is an apt temperament for Momiji, who circles around the mountain on patrol. Momiji is endowed with Wood Phase, as a tengu, and Sun Essence, with her lawful personality. The strong and kind Wood Phase resists Water Phase, because water nourishes wood, but it is weak to Metal Phase, because metal carves wood. 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 seeing one thousand ri ahead

This ability is vital for Momiji Inubashiri's patrolling duty. Ri is a traditional Japanese unit of measurement originating from the Chinese li. One thousand ri approximately equals 4000 km or 2500 miles. The ability to see extraordinarily far is a type of clairvoyance or telegnosis. The white wolf tengu supplement this with their wolf-like, heightened sense of hearing and smell. Momiji and the other white wolf tengu predominantly patrol the Youkai Mountain and the surrounding area. It seems that they are particularly vigilant of the area around the fairly recently constructed aerial tramway connected to Moriya Shrine. Momiji and the other white wolf tengu may actually be the most well-known denizens of the Youkai Mountain.

Attacks

Defensive Dog Offense

Momiji Inubashiri's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). She uses her shield to attack. Throwing your shield may not be a realistic way to fight, but it sure is flashy. Throwing a shield, so it bounces back to you is a simple task for one with the superior senses of a white wolf tengu... Probably.

Bullets
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Defense
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Bullets
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Stubborn Defense
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Battle of Bullets
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Unyielding Defense
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Foliage Battle of Bullets
Nomad Wolf Sword

Momiji Inubashiri's Focus Shot (a Touhou LW original). She uses her shield to attack. Charging with your shield aloft is a flashy and effective way to fight. You can surely overwhelm any opponent who tries to resist. White wolf tengu use this technique and work as a group to subdue intruders... Probably.

Bullets
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Martial Arts
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Shield
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Mighty Martial Arts
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Wooden Shield
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: True Martial Arts
  • White Wolf Fighting Style: Impenetrable Shield
Dog Sign: Rabies Bite

Momiji Inubashiri's Spell Card. She unleashes a barrage of slashes in the form of ferocious beast fangs. Wolves excel at biting. However, the question is whether they'll stop or not after a single bite.

Bullets
  • Fang Slash
  • Rabid Bite
  • Large Fang Slash
  • Canine Bite
  • Wolf Fang Slash
  • Saber-Tooth Bite
Mountain Nomad: Expellee's Canaan

Momiji Inubashiri's Spell Card. She spins and unleashes multiple spirals of bullets in this attack. Most cultures throughout the world describe some sort of "promised land" in their mythology. The history of the human race is the history of humans migrating across this planet. They travel in search of their promised land... The place where they eventually settle is most likely the land that was promised to them.

Bullets
  • Promised Land
  • Paradise
  • The Golden Land
  • The Kunlun Mountains
  • Tokoyo no Kuni
  • Utopia
Thousand Wolves

Momiji Inubashiri's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). A thousand wolves pounce on her targets. It is perilous to encounter a pack of wolves in the mountains at night, all the more so if they are youkai wolves. You may be able to escape ordinary wolves by climbing up a tree. But youkai wolves... They'll still get you.

Bullets
  • Senbiki Ookami - One Thousand Wolves
  • Ladder Wolf (Grey)
  • The Blacksmith's Wife
  • Koike-Baba
  • Yasaburou-Baba
  • Ladder Wolf (White)

Skills

Skill: Foliage Camouflage

White wolf tengu are also sometimes called foliage tengu. They have quite a few differences to crow tengu... Apparently.

White wolf tengu are also sometimes called sakai-dori or birds of boundaries. This is an apt name for those who patrol the Youkai Mountain.

Skill: Clairvoyance

Eyes that can see exceptionally far. It is said that this ability could have been derived from the oni.

Passive: Wolf Eyes
