I'm Youmu Konpaku. Some call me a master of the sword, but I am still in training. It's an honor to make your acquaintance.
Introduction
My name is Youmu Konpaku. Some call me a master of the sword, but I am merely a vagabond without a master to serve. Lady Yuyuko took me in and gave me a reason to live. Lady Yuyuko would complain that this kind of talk is boring, so I will tell a little joke. My Hakurouken can cut anything, and my Roukanken can also cut anything. So what happens when each sword tries to cut the other... What? It's too complicated? Oh...
Purple Heart
I do not claim to be a samurai. I am but a warrior, a fencer.
Blue Heart
Fencing without a sword? What a novel idea. It intrigues me.
Green Heart
Training without a sword is similar to the training of the mind, is it not? I wish to join you. What are we going to cut first?
Orange Heart
As you well know, once something is cut, it cannot be put back together. The superfluous can be cut away, but you cannot simply stick something on when you need it. So when you cut something, it is gone forever. Knowing this, do you still wish to continue...?
Pink Heart
I see that you are determined. Very well then. I will teach you the innermost secret of fencing. Although your sword is your mind, as you approach mastery of this secret, it may become tangible and cut apart your physical self. You must undertake this training with everything you have.
Summer
Cutting flowing water is elementary. In summer, the night is most beautiful, so I will cut the night itself! Though I won't actually because I wouldn't like it to be midday all the time.
Login
All right, let us begin today's training. Don't hold back. I am keenly aware of your desire to become stronger.
Enhancement
Do you have anything else I can cut? If not, I will go search for something.
Return
I have returned. Now I think I'll go and help Lady Yuyuko with her cooking.
Home 1
This is how you swing a sword. ...No, not like that. Make it swish. You know, SWISH! ...It's hard to understand? Really?
Home 2
Nothing tastes better than Lady Yuyuko's cooking. Though there do seem to be quite a few individuals confident in their cooking skills here... Oh, this bar's food is delicious.
Home 3
I can hear the ensemble playing from afar. It is so pleasant to the ears. This Gensokyo truly is a peaceful land.
Reaction 1
I tried meditating, but I didn't see anything.
Reaction 2
I also tried asceticism for a time, but I saw no benefits.
Reaction 3
All the trees in the garden are targets for my pruning.
Task
A task? This looks... way too difficult for me!
Task Complete
Did you truly finish that task?! Th-That's amazing!
Mail
Some mail has arrived for you. Let me take a look... Hmm, this is pretty complicated...
Errand Finished
Someone has returned from their mission. Let's go and welcome them back!
Start of Battle
Save your words. I shall but cut.
Mid-Wave

Character Information
Temperament: Genten
Genten (a Touhou LW original) refers to the northern sky, the winter sky, and the celestial bodies in the sky. It also refers to one of the four guardian gods, Genbu, the Black Tortoise, also known as the Black Warrior. This may be an apt temperament for this Youmu, who continues to enter the arena and fight to protect something. Because of this Youmu's peculiar circumstances, her Phase and Essence endowments are entirely different from the usual.
The phases of life, being Wood Phase (birth), Fire Phase (maturity), and Water Phase (death), have little effect on the half-human half-phantom, Youmu.
Conversely, she is weak to Earth Phase, which absorbs all things pertaining to life and death.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of sword fighting?
It is quite likely that this version of Youmu's ability started off the same as our version of Youmu's ability, but as she changed, so did her ability. However, it is still unknown. Our Youmu inherited her position as a fencing instructor (and gardener) from her ancestors. However, it does not seem like this is the case for this Youmu, as she is the first Konpaku to serve the tiny Yuyuko. She even refers to herself as nothing but a worthless vagabond. But she does fulfill her duties in teaching fencing to the tiny Yuyuko, who uses these skills... to improve her cooking.

Origin Mystery: Sohaya-Roukanken

Only her mistress, the tiny Yuyuko, knows why this Spell Card is named after the legendary sword, Sohaya no Tsurugi.

Youmu imbues this sword with wild spirit power to unleash a lightning-fast slash. This attack is so quick and wild that it could even cut down a god of lightning. Only her mistress, the tiny Yuyuko, knows why this Spell Card is named after the legendary sword, Raikiri.

Combined Sword - Cherry Blossom in Full Bloom
Youmu Konpaku (the Mysterious Sword Master)'s Last Word (a Touhou LW original). She raises Hakurouken and Roukanken, then swings them together as if they were a single sword. The moment before this attack is unleashed, the blades show a vision of the Saigyou Ayakashi, the youkai cherry blossom tree, towering over everything. The fact that she can now use such an overpowering technique may be because she finally managed to cut down her own inexperience...
