"My name is Teireita. I am a servant to the secret god, and I stand to their right." ...Huh? I fell asleep for a moment. I'm Hata no Kokoro.
Introduction
I spend my days learning to express emotions, but now a huge, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity has come! As a temporary servant of the secret god, I'm gonna let my wealth of expressions shine. Yippee! ...Hey, kid. What's with the vacant look? Clap or something. I'm Hata no Kokoro. Because of some strange thing called a "persona," I'm pretending to be human. Standing here backstage, I feel like I'm about to get my big break. I'm gonna be the next top actress. Got that?
I'm not human, but my origins as a tsukumogami strongly connect me to them.
Green Heart
People don't have a "true face" that lies beneath their mask. All humans live while constantly wearing a mask.
Orange Heart
There are two types of people who depend on their masks to live. One is those who perform on stage. And the other is menreiki. In other words, I was born to be a famous actress. I'll excite the crowd with my colorful smile, hehe.
Pink Heart
I tried being an actress as one of the secret god's servants, but I realized something. Expressing emotions is really complex. I need to study and practice a lot more... Hey, Flan. Let's practice together. Like, no messing around.
Summer
It's hot. Too hot. Let's write a play about the sea. But for that, you've gotta take me to the beach. C'mon, hurry.
Login
Apparently, some plays make wings grow on your back. Although actually, that's just the doors on your back opening and looking like wings.
Enhancement
My back feels funny. It's just background signals? That sounds scary!
Return
I'm baaack. Phew, I'm beat. And for some reason, my memory's a little fuzzy.
Home 1
I know for a fact the secret god's servants are chosen from among humans. That means a part of me must've originated from humans... I feel like I'm being taken advantage of.
Home 2
Even though she acts like a secret god, I feel like Miss Okina is similar to my father... But that doesn't affect my work. I'll earn her respect by becoming a top actress.
Home 3
Hey, Flan. Let's get Mai and Satono to watch our acting. Maybe they'll have some advice as dancers. Oh, and Koishi said she wants to watch, too.
Reaction 1
H-Hey, watch it. You wanna sleep on my lap? Why?
Reaction 2
Even if I say no, you'd do it anyway. Fine.
Reaction 3
Look, she fell asleep. Tch...*pats head*
Task
Are you doing tasks? If you've got that much time on your hands, watch me perform.
Task Complete
You finished your task. So, what did you think of my performance? That's much more important right now.
Mail
A le... le-le-le-letter?! ...This is my surprised face.
Errand Finished
Whenever someone gets back, I hear a whisper coming from behind my ears. It gives me the creeps.
Start of Battle
The servants' ancestors possessed people. That's kinda occult-ish.
Mid-Wave
I'll become a legendary actress with 66 faces.
Victory
With this, I'm one step closer to being a famous actress. Check out my rainbow smile! Haha!

*sob* *whimper* I heard we were gonna win for sure. What happened?

Character Information
Temperament: Kuuchuu Rouraku
Kuuchuu Rouraku (a Touhou LW original) refers to a fabricated event or a mirage. This is an apt temperament for Kokoro, who contains within her the ancestor of the servant who dances to the right of the secret god.
Kokoro's temperament (Star Essence and Earth Phase) has combined with Mai's temperament (Star Essence and Wood Phase).
Ability/Backstory: Capable of manipulating emotions?
The ability of Hata no Kokoro from the world reborn (a Touhou LW original). This Kokoro's ability remains essentially unchanged, but when she's activated as an ancestor god, Teireita's power envelops almost all of her body, which seemingly causes her to act like a completely different person.
Okina Matara has two servants: Satono Nishida and Mai Teireida. Apparently, Okina replaces her servants periodically. However, the full truth of the matter remains a mystery. It seems the replacements must be human, but she vehemently avoids those with important jobs, such as the Hakurei shrine maiden. What's more, becoming one of her servants entails abandoning one's humanity... or so the rumor goes. That's all rather scary, but the "Secret God Servant Recruitment Details," as explained by Okina, weren't scary at all. The title of her presentation was "Servant Experience - Recruiting Now! Become Gensokyo's Next Big Actress!" She went on to clarify that signing up would allow you to study the art of performing from herself, Mai, and Satono. She claimed the experience wouldn't be scary, nor would they take anything from you, but one wonders if that's true...
Teireita and Nishita are ancestor gods while also being the secret god's two servants. The three of them combined make up a single god. Teireita danced to the right of the secret god, a role that has been passed down the generations all the way to Mai Teireida. Teireita was the one who saw menreiki's potential as a professional actor since each mask could act as a different human persona, and this is why she chose to view them as human. In contrast to Mai, Teireita was calm and somewhat cold, referring to herself as "narrator-like." It may be more accurate to think of her as one aspect of the secret god, Okina Matara, or even a bunrei. There's no way a being like her should have independent thoughts, so maybe this was all some form of delusion or manifestation of Okina's will. Regardless, the ancestor god, Teireita, decided to watch over Hata no Kokoro whenever she wasn't watching Mai Teireida.
Kokoro had never performed on a large stage before, and she couldn't contain her excitement to do so. Seeing Kokoro, Teireita mumbled, "To think being a secret god's servant would come to be seen as some kind of performer that sings and dances at bars... But I suppose it's OK. I'll make a top actress out of her. That's what you want, isn't it, Master?"
Attacks
Bamboo Spear
The Spread Shot of Hata no Kokoro from the world reborn (a Touhou LW original). She thrusts a bamboo spear at her foes. In Japanese, there are two distinct types of bamboo―take and sasa. They are very similar, and it's often difficult to tell them apart. Both plants have culm sheaths (leaves that wrap around the stem), but take's fall away as it grows, whereas sasa's remain attached. However, given that definition, yadake, or arrow bamboo, would be classed as sasa, and okamezasa, also known as ruscus-leaf bamboo, would be classed as take. Which is all to say, take and sasa really are very similar.

Soul Halberd
The Focus Shot of Hata no Kokoro from the world reborn (a Touhou LW original). She thrusts a soul naginata at her foes. This weapon is known for being used in Noh plays. There are a handful of famous plays with naginata-wielding characters, but Shizuka Gozen, who appears in Shouzon, is particularly memorable.

A Spell Card of Hata no Kokoro from the world reborn (a Touhou LW original). This attack is reminiscent of Tanabata, the Star Festival. When thinking of Tanabata, everyone in Japan surely remembers the tale of Orihime and Hikoboshi. Long ago, people looked up at two bright stars in the night sky separated by the Milky Way and dreamt up a sorrowful yet hopeful tale of a young married couple. Performances re-enacting this tale of legend tale can still be seen today.

Speech Sign: 66th Impression
A Spell Card of Hata no Kokoro from the world reborn (a Touhou LW original). This attack is reminiscent of the 66 plays Hata no Kawakatsu devised for a prince. It's said that menreiki are tsukumogami originating from the 66 masks Hata no Kawakatsu received from the prince. If that's true, then the masks must be very old, which would, in turn, explain their turning into tsukumogami. Then again, it's said that a tool becomes a tsukumogami when its owner doesn't hold a memorial service and instead discards it in a still usable and unbroken state. Perhaps the reason these 66 masks became tsukumogami was because Hata no Kawakatsu abandoned them.

Severe Punishment, Strange Festivities - Uzumasa Ox Festival
The Last Word of Hata no Kokoro from the world reborn (a Touhou LW original). She recreates a legendary yet strange festival in this attack. It's said the secret god and her two servants come together as three to form a singular god. Three is a sacred number, and it can be found throughout Shintoism and Buddhism, but Hata no Kokoro doesn't understand much about all that. Having opportunities to get on stage and express herself is what appeals to her more than anything. Noh and Sarugaku, as well as dance and theater, all originated from playing pretend. By imagining something that isn't there and interacting with it, you can make an audience believe it's real. The ability to do that fits well into Gensokyo and is something even the gods covet. The festival recreated in this performance even includes expressions of scorn and abuse. No other performance allows one to express oneself to quite this extent... or so thought the god Okina Matara.
