Mokou

Going from a bamboo forest to a church by an ordinary deciduous forest was one of the more unexpected things that happened to Mokou in recent times. Not impossibly unexpected, she had only recently found herself being teleported to the Outside World, but that had been due to actively collecting objects to facilitate it. She didn't think there was some weird incident to be pulled into this time... at least, nobody unusual had been coming through to pick fights, which was probably the only thing to go on.

Or maybe this counted as a weird incident? Something of an annoying one, since it didn't look like it was going to wear off as quickly as her last foray out of Gensokyo, and these trees were not native to Japan. Nor was the architecture of the crumbling building. Still, if she looked around long enough, there would probably be somebody.

If not, it didn't really matter. It wasn't like there was anything she was in a hurry to get back to.

She was saved from having to follow a trail back to a settlement by the sound of voices. And she recognised that one.

"You!" The pointing wasn't necessary, but it gave her time to pick out other people except the vampire. Some green thing, boy, a green-haired girl that seemed vaguely familiar, that ghost's strange gardener... what was she doing with the devil? Had there been a trade in underlings? "You're not going to try have that maid eat me again, right?"

With this strange group, maybe Remilia wasn't the one behind this? Not if she was going to be out in the daytime. Even if she had only moved into Gensokyo recently and was more likely to know a way to get people out again.

Fujiwara no Mokou

• Name: Fujiwara no Mokou
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: Mokou
• Personality: Despite being a loner who doesn't really start conversations with strangers, she can be surprisingly lively with anyone that's come along for a fight--even though she's generally past the days where she'd go around to seek those things out. It puts her in a rather odd spot, because she's legitimately a violent maniac and fan of fighting... but also one of the nicer people in Gensokyo if you need help because you're lost. Despite the excessively long hair, she's also generally tomboyish in demeanour.
  Despite having an ongoing obsession with seeing if something can actually kill her for good (as hopeless as that is), she seems to be enjoying her life. Weird girl.
• Brief History: Born to the Fujiwara Clan, back when being such a noble house was vastly more important than it would be for most of Japan's history, Mokou's position in the family is a little vague. Most likely, she was the fifth daughter of Fujiwara no Fuhito, given his likely inspiration for Kuramachi no Miko from the Tale of the Bamboo-Cutter. Although seemingly an unwanted child--or perhaps just an embarrassing one for some reason--it wasn't like she would have had a poor life, except that her father was humiliated by Kaguya for presenting a fake rather than the impossible request asked for.
  Taking offence at this, when Mokou heard that Kaguya's gift to the Emperor was being transported or to be destroyed, she set out to retrieve it... and, being a random girl completely under-equipped for this, got noticed by the party sent out to burn said gift. Rather than leave her to die, they had Mokou tag along on the journey, which went quite wrong by offending a goddess, leaving only herself and Tsuki no Iwasa.
  At this point, knowing that the gift was a medicine to grant immortality, Mokou killed him and took it for herself. She later quite came to regret this.
  Being ageless and unkillable fits in rather poorly with human society, and she eventually found herself ostracised entirely. This eventually lead to a rather unpleasant three hundred years, where she simply killed anyone that she happened to come across, until that became boring, too. So she then did... nothing. Absolutely nothing. For centuries. But then, then, she found that Kaguya was still on Earth, and decided to start up a rivalry--supposedly because of the insult to her family, even though she'd entirely forgotten about her up to this point--that mostly amounts to killing one another constantly as a way to pass the time.
  Aside from fighting Kaguya, she generally just spends her time showing people out of the Bamboo Forest of the Lost. Not that she's against making friends, she just seems to not leave the place much.
• Universe of Origin: Touhou Project
• Equipment: Well, the hakama (and the ribbons in her hair) appear to be fireproof. The shirt? Much less so.
• Abilities:
  
  • Flight: To get the obvious out of the way. A Touhou is a Touhou.
  • Danmaku: Again, Touhou.
  • Fire: Whether it's a natural talent and ability or a specific form of magic learned over the years, Mokou's primary offensive abilities all seem to revolve around fire in one way or another. Unfortunately, while she certainly has the ability to create fire, and probably some sort of skill around controlling it, her ability to put it out isn't anywhere near so good. She's also not fireproof, which is something she uses to her advantage--as bizarre as that might sound.
  • Sorcery: Exactly what she can do is... unclear, although it probably ties into why she has some fireproof clothing. It most likely explains both the flight and all the various non-fire related bullets--certainly, even without the fire, she's more than a match for youkai despite being (for most purposes) still human.
  • Immortality: Mokou cannot die. Ever. Having taken all three doses of the Hourai Elixir, the very concept of death has been permanently removed from her being--and given the power that went into creating it, attempting to reinstate that would probably be actively negated again. At its most extreme, this has the odd ramification that if entering some place would count you as technically dead, she might as well be running into an impassable wall to approach it.
    Aside from the absolute nature of it, this manifests as extremely rapid healing for serious injuries--they'll pass in a few days--as well as no need for such mortal concerns as food or sleep (although the hunger pains get annoying eventually) and, most importantly, restoring herself to life from fatal injury immediately. Conveniently, this means healing can be accelerated just by burning herself to death and allowing that to reset everything. Complete destruction of her body by some other source would have a similar effect.
    She also doesn't age and is immune to all disease and illness, which is convenient.
  • Possession: Although the possession in one of her spellcards is intentional, it's still part of the spellcard system. The fact that she could possess people at other times... well, she's done something like that, but was deep in meditation at the time. And didn't have a clue.
  • Fragility: Not really a 'skill', but between just letting immortality deal with it and not bothering to eat, Mokou's general condition does seem to be extremely weak... aside from all the magical stuff. She actually dies from danmaku, which is the sort of thing normally only reserved for the weakest fairies, if that. She just comes back a lot.
• Other: The immortality is technically obtainable if you eat her liver.

Even in the... whatever the hell was going on in ULiL, it was definitely more 'along for the ride and being a weird influence' than control, yeah.

"I see," the man said with a small smile, taking the offered hand with only a hint of exasperation at the custom. Despite his size, it was a surprisingly light grip, not crushing, yet not weak enough to suggeest that age had brought infirmity. Or at least not yet. "Then, would you care to demonstrate what you already know? I am slightly aware of the daughter's talents but I must confess to being unsure whether my knowledge would complement the teachings of one of the fey."

Erich stepped back, arms folded, and waited. It wasn't likely that he would have nothing to teach--if there was one similarity between the stories of the legendary figure and Lilia's approach, it was enchanting swords.

Candaeln Yard

The more experienced knight's deflection was uncharacteristically awkward, barely avoiding getting tagged, although true to the form he was emulating, Florian didn't allow that to stop him from immediately pressing the attack to try and limit Fleuri's opportunity to capitalise on it.

"Oh, probably some sort of summer festival? The calendar here doesn't flow normally, and the seasons can remain unchanging for years or go back and forth on a daily basis, so it's just an excuse for street food and music," Florian continued, not allowing such a little thing as 'swinging a sword' to interrupt his conversation.

Outside Talderia

"The only things here from Aimlenn are the ones she finds personally interesting, it's still strange," Edwin said, placing the sword carefully against an unexpectedly undamaged tree and retrieving the copy he had brought with him in the first place, "Everything else is from Talderia. Or like something that could have been in Talderia?"

"Someone like the prince wouldn't know about the commoners' exact buildings, and we don't know anyone from back then who could answer." Parvan added. "But if it's the food you're after, there's still some places near Candaeln that have learned how to make our recipes too."

Maid RPG: Touhou Fairy Edition

Rough draft of adaptations for... well, being fairies (none of the actual rolling stuff, I'll write that up properly later):

In short, it's really "remember Gensokyo's tech level... and it's Gensokyo... and you're fairies", so everything's even more lackadaisical and lighthearted than normal, but

• Special Qualities:
  
  • Obviously, everyone has Absurd: Fairy
  • Anything that would add being some other... thingy? Remember Orin's Zombie Fairy spellcard? That's right, dress-up! Angel Fairy, Fox Fairy, etc.
  • Tragic Love/Trauma tables: just reroll or pick something else. <_>
  • Injuries: Pretty sure most of those would just be playing around too. They are respawning nature spirits. Blind is about the only one that... doesn't actually require injuring one. xD
  • Relationships: And this one, not perversion, please--most of them work, though a sibling interpretation might be a bit odd.
  • Dark Past: again, fairy games
  • Secret Job: Hacker - remember that you'd also have no idea what a computer is
  • Robot: see above. Maybe karakuri...?
  • Actually a Guy: no
• Weapon: Danmaku. this should be obvious
• Maid Roots: just use some sense. Especially with regards to anything like illegitimate child being completely impossible.
• Stress Explosion: Not sure how quite to relate posts to stress reduction yet, but probably a two stage thing: if you just go over it, one dead fairy coming up. She'll be back later, it's fine. But if you just want to sit out for a while and reduce stress before that point (really looking at things like rolling 6 will here), then use the normal stress explosion instead. Hey, it's a fairy, not everyone's Cirno--and even her health bar was motivation in her own game. xD

Maid RPG: Touhou Fairy Edition

Ah, Maid RPG, that weird little thing where everyone is a maid (nearly) and the only more powerful force in the universe is a butler. But what if instead of being powerful and competent maids, all the players were part of the Scarlet Devil Mansion's cohort of complete goofs? Where almost any other person is far beyond your pay grade to fight (not that this will likely stop you).

Obviously, there'd need to be some changes to the character creation because some things just don't make sense in Gensokyo... or are incompatible with being a fairy. And there's some things that are pretty much a given for the premise.

That, and Immune to Pain would probably have to change a little. No fairy's winning a spellcard duel by facetanking everything.

Still, who's up for being very cute but less than ideal maids? Probably looking for 5-6 players.

Qlippoth Shift: A Supernatural Action RP About Combating Otherworldy Anomalies

Yakumo Sakura

"We were already in a horror movie, now it's changing genres!" the girl complained, blinking to try and clear her eyes... then blinking again some more for good luck. Nope, she hadn't missed it, there were definitely enemies reforming behind them. "Well, looks like we're not going to be able to fight them all to the death anyway. Time for some shortcuts~"

A somewhat sensible person would ask why she hadn't just proposed this from the beginning. A more sensible one would realise that the answer was going to be idiosyncratic anyway and of dubious use. Also, most importantly, that this wasn't the time to ask whether she actually had some solid reasoning as a basis for sticking back and that this could wait until later.

Nonetheless, the girl was following through on her word--if they stuck together now, then that'd just be a series of hops to the end of rooms before, hopefully, getting to the heart of the matter. Line of sight only, obviously; they had to keep an eye out for any ambushes, she didn't know where exactly they were going... and then there was the matter of traps and such. Spotting or reacting to them when you were nearby was one thing, but if she just opened a portal to who-knows-where...

Well, not everyone was good at looking at the floor on the other side before they stepped in.

"One of those quirks of being born with far too much mana, I'm afraid; our height tends to extremes either way," the man said, continuing his inspection of the bush. Now that Fionn was close, the rather dwarfed-looking pruning shears were apparent as he continued to clip away at the plant. "My eldest daughter was particularly tall. So was Miss Radistirin's mother, when we could find enough resources to corroborate. Illness might be a contributing factor, yet it could hardly be considered conclusive..."

For a legendary warrior, the old man seemed to have an academic streak. After a minute more of quietly clipping away, he rose up, pocketing the shears, and gave Fionn a studious gaze before his eyebrows rose in some sort of recognition.

"So, you're one of those current Iron Roses? I owe your generation a great debt."

"Hm, you nearly had it that time," Florian said, rubbing some imagined speck of dirt off his blade. At least after the first spars that Fleuri had asked for, the man had elected to stop his usual trick of mirroring the younger knight's own approach to combat back at him. Knowing how to defeat yourself was all well and good, but you weren't going to be fighting your doppelganger any time soon. Or at least, not often enough for it to be essential.

It would also make for a pretty poor way to improve on exploiting openings if your opponent insisted on showing you how good you could be to the point there wasn't much left to exploit.

Instead, he'd been going through the styles of who knew how many other people, generally leaning more towards naked aggression. While the still level remained higher than Fleuri was perhaps used to, Florian had at least noted he wasn't correcting all the errors that came from not adapting it to his own height or reach, or restraining the aggression to something that would make it easier to cover any gaps. Perhaps annoyingly, it still meant being stabbed a lot.

"Now, if you can tag me this time, then we'll have the rest of the afternoon for something else. I believe they're setting up for a festival tonight?" Some things, however, he'd probably not stop without asking directly.

Outside Talderia

Spear on the other side of Renar, nothing in his hand; while the man was clearly capable of responding in time--he'd done enough course corrections to show that avoiding those seemingly-committed charges weren't perfectly straight and his reflexes were able to keep up--there wasn't seemingly much that he could respond with, even freeing one hand from the spear.

Until another blast shot out of that. Almost a pleasant experience after everything from the spear--or worse, the waves of energy that Daybreaker kept firing--but nonetheless a magical blast capable of stripping clothing and burning flesh. Also, quite importantly, fully capable of knocking a grown man flying, making the attempt at stabbing Parvan in the neck quite futile.

"Well, if nothing else, you've certainly improved already. But since neither of us has the benefit of restoring to full health every few minutes, we're going to need to stop for a break," Edwin noted. Then paused. "Maybe head back to Candaeln. I didn't think we'd be out here long enough to worry about lunch."
