[*][b]World of Origin:[/b] Touhou Project
[*][b]Powers/Equipment:[/b] Kaguya's (notable) power is Manipulation of Eternity and the Instantaneous. In practical terms, it means that she can break spells affecting how time flows once she's aware of them. Less practically, it's a really good way to keep a mansion in perfect condition for centuries at the cost of nothing there ever changing at all, which is more than a bit boring. This ability is one of the key ingredients to creating the Hourai Elixir.
Naturally, as one of the people instrumental in its creation, Kaguya has consumed the elixir and benefits from all its attendant effects, such as the inability to die, fall ill, or not needing to eat or drink. Of course, injuries accumulate and take time to heal, but she's at least well-fed and quite durable anyway, so it's not an enormous difficulty. Being a Lunarian helps somewhat, as she was already (practically) unageing before consuming the elixir.
When it comes to fighting, Kaguya tends to rely on her vast, [i]vast[/i] collection of random items. Whilst for the most part this is a collection of priceless artefacts being used to generate bullets or lasers, two stand out. One for being a robe with the ability to create fire and the other for being an [i]entire temple ceiling.[/i] Though for danmaku purposes it can be used for creating bullet walls, practically it's simpler to just hit someone with the thing.
Finally, as a resident of Gensokyo, she can fly. Whilst she logically would have other magical abilities as a native of the moon, she never seems to use them even when it could be considered a good idea, so they functionally don't exist. It's also worth noting that her beauty is renowned--more than enough to have strangers come to court her and then set off on impossible errands for the mere [i]chance[/i] of winning her hand.
[*]Brief Backstory:[/*] Kaguya was born as a princess of the moon. This can be widely considered to be a good deal, all things considered, and not worth screwing up in any way. She still chose to cause problems for herself by getting Yagokoro Eirin to make the Hourai Elixir with her help before consuming it and consequently getting exiled from the Moon for committing this crime, where a bamboo cutter found her and raised her as [i]his[/i] daughter.
Her beauty came to the notice of the nobility and, not wishing to marry any of them, she set them the challenge of collecting various items--requests that were deemed impossible. Though this was true from the perspective of difficulty, it mostly held because Kaguya had gone and collected all the items herself. One suitor tried to fake succeeding, setting in motion the chain of events that would lead to Fujiwara no Mokou attaining the Hourai Elixir and becoming immortal.
Eventually, the Lunarians decided that perhaps it wasn't the best idea for their unkillable princess to reside on the filthy Earth and came to bring her back. Kaguya, however, rather liked it there as well as humanity. A way out was provided because [i]Eirin[/i] was one of those sent and chose to join Kaguya in killing the other emissaries before going into hiding.
A long time later, Mokou located Kaguya again and set up the repeating cycle of killing each other for poorly defined reasons, marking the only notable change to Eientei in centuries. Some time later, a moon rabbit came--bringing news of the Apollo landings and fleeing the invasion--and got kept around. The biggest change, however, was on paranoia that the Moon would try and take her back again, where Eirin took the initiative to put the world in a pot so that it was inaccessible from outside.
As it turned out, this was entirely unnecessary and the strange fake moon attracted enough attention that more people from Gensokyo blindly stumbled upon Eientei. This has considerably livened the place up, along with the spell of eternity being lifted, and Kaguya has actually left the forest a few times. Why not answer an interesting call to help some other world?
[*][b]Personality:[/b] Kaguya is both a princess--raised to be courteous and personable--and someone woefully bereft of common sense. This probably explains setting people literally impossible tasks to be her suitor rather than declining outright and how she decided consuming the elixir in the first place was a good idea or even remotely necessary. It also clearly outlines why, despite being regal when the situation calls for it, her general attitude to life is to pursue random whims such as having a hotspring in Eientei or to fall asleep somewhere that bamboo can trap her. Given how many rabbits live in the place, she obviously has a fondness for them and yet refers to every single one as Inaba, even the newest arrival from the moon, when that would work as an accurate name for exactly one of them.
She does seem to be able to be inventively malicious towards Mokou, such as sending people to be assassins, but on the whole she doesn't take the whole thing anywhere near as seriously. [/list]
