Oh, a customer? Wait, you're not here to buy something? Well, I'm Nitori Kawashiro, a kappa living in the mountains.
Introduction
Oh, a customer? Wait, you're not here to buy something? Well, I'm Nitori Kawashiro, a kappa living in the mountains. And you are...? I see! You came from another world? That's hard to believe, but it's not important anyway. I'm more interested in that pen and notebook you're holding. Hm... I'll let you use my tools to resolve the incident if you let me take a look at those. How about it?
Purple Heart
A big incident, huh? Hope I can use it somehow to sell stuff.
Blue Heart
You need a useful tool? Just ask a kappa! I'll give you a special discount!
Green Heart
When you look at me, I feel like I'm being studied or something―it makes the cracks in my shell tingle. Are you that curious about kappa?
Orange Heart
Resolving incidents with you is pretty fun. I can try out my new tools and see stuff that gives me ideas for new products. And I get to watch you up close and personal! I trust you quite a lot, you know?
Pink Heart
If I had to call you something, I guess I'd call you my sworn ally. I'm helping you out to resolve the incident, but even more than that, I'm just so curious about you! I guess I'll learn more about you in time though.
Summer
I look happy, you say? Well, that's because summer is the season of my favorite vegetable! The vegetable that all kappa love and need... You know what I'm talking about, right?

Oh, you came by again today? Come over here―I've got something to show you! Let me know what you think.

Home 2
It's a treasure trove of business opportunities out there! What do you think of this textbook? Oh, and this toy that looks like stationery!

Ooh, I just felt a shock!

I'm so hungry! Don't you have anything refreshing for me to eat? Preferably something green!

Hey! Don't even think about taking my hat, OK?

A task? Maybe it'll help you come up with some good ideas.

Wow, this is great! I can use this data for marketing and development!

Character Information
Temperament: Kawakaze
Kawakaze (a Touhou LW original) refers to wind caused by the difference in temperature between a river and its surroundings, as well as wind that takes the path of a river. Kappa are youkai of the river, so this is a fitting temperament for Nitori. Nitori is endowed with Water Phase, due to her tenacious yet flexible mindset as an engineer and saleswoman, and Moon Essence, from the sense of community she feels with her friends.
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 cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence resists the alluring and arrogant Sun Essence, but it is weak to the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of manipulating water
This might sound like a natural ability for any kappa to have, but it is not as simple as it seems. This innate ability allows Nitori to manipulate water without any tools at all. Some say that kappa are the remains of former water gods―it would be unwise to underestimate them. Nitori is not often seen making full use of her ability, but perhaps she is using it in her Spell Cards. Incidentally, the development of precision machinery is said to have developed in places where clean water flows, forging an unbreakable connection between the Iron Age and water. Water and engineering have always been inseparable.
Attacks
Tsuuhiken
Nitori Kawashiro's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). It refers to a type of fighting style that uses fists. Nitori uses an extendable mechanical arm to attack her target. There is a type of Chinese youkai called tsuuhai enkou which can extend one arm while shortening the other, and that characteristic lives in Japanese kappa. Nitori named her extendable mechanical arm after that Chinese youkai out of respect.

Aerial Torpedo
Nitori Kawashiro's Focus Shot. She sends out multiple aerial torpedoes to blast her target in this attack. Nitori is both an engineer and a kappa―an aquatic youkai―making this shot a good fit for her.

Ephemeral Foam: Burst! Bubble Dragon
Nitori Kawashiro's Spell Card. She shoots out bubble bullets and then makes them burst. They are so loud that you can practically see the "POP!" in this very effective sound attack. But what could "bubble dragon" possibly be referring to?

Battle Machine: Fly! Sanpei Fight
Nitori Kawashiro's Spell Card. This riveting barrage of bullets uses Nitori's Sanpei Fighter in midair combined with a drill attack. After combining, Sanpei functions as a heavily armed booster rocket, while the separated cockpit takes over as a light fighting plane... Or well, it would be nice if it worked that way, anyway.

Super Scope 3D
Nitori Kawashiro's Last Word. Nitori uses an optical cloak to hide her movement as she shoots cannons and grenades from a distance. This cannon is a replica of something from the outside. Apparently, it was not originally built to be a weapon. Maybe it was used for practice?

Skills
Skill: Optical Camouflage Cloak
If you wrap this around your body, you will blend into the surroundings. It is waterproof too, of course.
Skill: Failed Prototype
Even kappa make mistakes sometimes. Failure is the key to success.
Skill: Amphibious Chaff
Chaff is a countermeasure used to jam radars, but can it really be used underwater...?
