• OC's are allowed and encouraged.
• If something becomes too all-consuming a plot, please try and tone it down or at least tell me what's going on so I can do GM stuff to help it work.
• Don't take things too seriously. Whilst this probably won't get as silly as Inaba, it's still a silly place.
• "Akyuu's sources are terrible" or: don't grimderp the place up. That's not conducive to slice of life and really hard to do well.
• No playing two characters who're closely involved with each other (Sakuya and Remilia, Kaguya and Mokou, etc.)*. Too much roleplaying with yourself that way, and it's rather unfair if one person monopolises most of a game's cast.
• Please try not to have too many characters.
• Don't take canon 100% as read. The goal is fun, not a memory test.
• No Yukari. I have IC uses for her that rely on not having her as a character. :P

• Name: Kirisame Marisa
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: A perfectly ordinary witch. Also like 4'9
• Personality: Kirisame Marisa is a frequent liar and kleptomaniac. She'll steal anything that looks interesting or useful, provided it's not nailed down, and she'll even steal abilities from people she's met. She's also nearly always cheerful, always interested in a fight, friendly or otherwise, and an incredibly hard worker. To master the magic she has, she needed to train for a very long time. For some reason she doesn't like talking about how hard she works, but it's likely that most of her life was spent doing so. Marisa is also very proud of being the "Second best in Gensokyo" to Reimu, as well as being a good thief.
• Species: Human
• Ablities: Capable of flight and danmaku use, spellcards listed here. She's also a pretty fancy thief, and carries around what's known as the mini-hakkero for doing magic. Her biggest, hardest hitting spells are all variants on "Master Spark", a massive beam of magic. Danmaku is non-lethal but can damage objects, but lethal versions of some spells are possible.
• Skills: Marisa is a pretty good thief, actually. She's quite smart as well, good at engineering spells or copying them for her own use.
• Brief Backstory: Marisa is a proud incident-resolver of Gensokyo, and has participated in the resolution of various incidents.

• Name: Konpaku Youmu
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: "For Yuyuko-sama, I won't fail!"
• Personality: Calm, collected, serious. These are things Youmu tries to be at all times. To her credit, in a fight she is a dangerous and focused opponent, but outside of combat she is prone to being rather awkward. Her attempts to remain collected often fail, as Youmu is easily surprised and confused. She is not unintelligent, but it is simply quite easy to exasperate or perplex her. Youmu is easily frustrated by things that confuse her, and she is somewhat easy to mislead. However, she has been working on this, as to not fail Yuyuko. Youmu takes pride in her combat capabilities and her speed, as well as her katana, Roukanken and Hakuroken. In spite of her attempts to be a dutiful and serious warrior, Youmu retains a fear of ghost stories. In spite of being half ghost. And serving a ghost. However, when her opponent is not a ghost, Youmu can be a courageous fighter who refuses to give in. She also retains absolute loyalty to Saigyouji Yuyuko, even if the gluttonous ghost confuses and embarrasses her at times.
• Species: Half-Phantom
• Ablities: Youmu is somewhat more durable than a regular human being, and has a somewhat more capable healing ability, but this is nothing as extreme as most youkai. As a half-ghost, a portion of her soul is embodied as a non-sentient floating phantom referred to as Myon. This can be used to observe distant areas, fire danmaku, or even temporarily become a duplicate of Youmu for double team attacks. Youmu also feels everything Myon feels, though she cannot be damaged in this way(something painful to Myon will be painful to Youmu, though). Her strength is above human level, allowing her to wield the incredibly long Roukanken one-handed. Youmu's attacking speed allows her to slash many times in an instant, to the point where it appears as a single attack. She can also move very quickly, in both air and on land, her speed making her the second fastest person in Gensokyo. This allows her to pull off her family technique, Two-Hundred Yojana in One Slash, covering an enormous amount of distance and come back in the time it takes to unsheath Roukanken and cut with it, allowing her to cut foes even quite a distance away. She also carries spellcards and is fully capable of flight. Her most powerful technique, both in spellcard form and as a true attack, is Reflecting Satellite Slash. This attack is simultaneously the cutting of her blade and a wave of blades reflected by the light of the moon, assaulting her opponent in a flash of light as she moves to cut through them. Even in nonlethal danmaku form it is a highly dangerous attack. However, it requires Youmu to hold still and gather power to properly perform it. In spite of all her advantages, Youmu is still partially human and can be injured as a human can, and while attacks to Myon do not cause physical harm, the pain caused by them can immobilize her.
• Skills: Youmu is an incredibly skilled swordswoman, capable of wielding her blades both one and two-handed. She is also an adept gardener.
• Brief Backstory: Youmu was born into the Konpaku family, half-ghosts in service of the ruler of the Netherworld, Saigyouji Yuyuko. She was trained intensely in swordplay, and in how to garden in order to cultivate the gardens around Yuyuko's home. Soon enough, Youmu became Yuyuko's servant, dedicated to her service even when she was to cause an incident that nearly(unintentionally) caused the awakening of a malevolent entity in the form of a soul-eating cherry tree. Since then, Youmu has actively assisted in the resolution of several incidents.

Hurrah, Kaguya gets her friend!

Because what else do you call that person you see every few days for centuries and don't have some sort of master/servant relationship with?

Your mortal enemy? owo;;
Actually, more like immortal, but what do I know? =3=;;

• Name: Sister Maria Shepard
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: Something like this. She's pretty short, only just reaching five feet tall.
• Personality: Maria comes off as more serious minded than some of the others in Gensokyo, and is rather more serious about her religion than either of the mikos. She's not entirely trusting of youkai, but is willing to accept them should they prove to be goodhearted people. A pacifist by nature, she doesn't really get involved much in incidents, and generally frowns upon violence. Somehow, she sees herself as Reimu's chief rival, despite the shrine maiden barely being aware of her existence. Despite this insistance, she's generally a lot more peaceful than most Gensokians, and is mostly concerned with taking care of the small Christian population of Gensokyo. However, if need be she is perfectly capable of fighting off any wolves that would threaten her flock. She does not react well to anyone teasing or flirting with her.
• Species: Human
• Ablities: Maria possesses the power to heal wounds, as well as a thorough knowledge of exorcism rites. Like all Gensokians, she possesses the ability to fly, and although she is a pacifist she is surprisingly good with danmaku, enough that her claims to being Reimu's chief rival could actually be justified. She possesses several spellcards, although as she barely ever uses them only some of their names are known (for the curious, her spellcard names include such things as Rites of Exorcism "Kyrie Eleison", Rejuvenation Sign "Auxilium Meum A Domino" and Angelic Salutation "Ave Maria").
• Skills: Maria is a surprisingly fast reader, able to devour bookstopper-length novel in less than a day. She's also surprisingly skilled when it comes to building snowmen. Despite having a fondness for wine she's actually kind of a lightweight and gets drunk rather easily.
• Brief Backstory: A nun from Gensokyo, and head of the local Christian community. Of course, as the Christian population of Gensokyo is abysmally low, she never really has much to do, and so mustly spends her time going door to door trying to spread the word of the Lord (not with much success, admittedly). Still, she's a hard worker who tries her best to tend to her flock, even if she's starting to feel a little uneasy about the ever-increasing competition. Apparently she used to have a hat until Marisa stole it.

• Name: Wriggle Nightbug
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: "As long as it doesn't turn out stupid, I'm in!" She's about 5'0, maybe a little under.
• Personality: Wriggle is a fairly confident girl, a relatively young youkai with a high opinion of insects and a strong belief in herself. She also has a bit of a temper, disliking any insults directed to herself or insects. She's pretty strong-willed, but is not completely without fear. Wriggle is prone to being exasperated by unusual or stupid acts, a feeling she often directs towards some of her friends. At the same time, she cares a lot about her friends and doesn't like it when they're seriously threatened. Danmaku duels, however, are another matter entirely. In some ways, she could be considered something of a straightman among her friends. Wriggle dislikes being mistaken for male(though she can pass as a very girly boy), and has something of a desire to try out more feminine clothing sometimes. However, she also finds the prospect quite embarrassing and also does not have the means to afford anything nice for herself. Wriggle can be remarkably sarcastic in the face of things that make her exasperated.
• Species: Firefly Youkai
• Ablities: Wriggle can, like most Gensokyo residents with any supernatural capabilities, fly. She can control insects and of course use spellcards and danmaku. As a youkai, Wriggle is remarkably strong and can bounce back from serious injury rather effectively.
• Skills: Wriggle can read and write quite well, unlike some other young youkai(most[most] of her friends can as well). She has an encyclopedic knowledge of insects and can kick remarkably hard.
• Brief Backstory: There's not much to say. A young youkai who briefly showed up during one incident, and made some friends with a few other youkai.
