Hi there! Our forums are not currently accepting new account registrations. We primarily use our discord server these days so be sure to check it out to interact with the community!
Ok doing a quick check on things to get me bearings.
So first I want to take a moment and stare at the lore and contemplate how we can try to tie events into it so as to keep focus so as to... Well... Move things forward. Of course making the focus seem natural is the fun part.
So I'm going through things and trying to list out the things that should happen so as to figure out how things will happen.
...which means I'm looking at the relevance of things and seeing what use they are to the primary objective and what sub-objectives need to be met in order to achieve it.
So far I'm not faltering on the main objective being destroy the Unknown and the main setup involving the Daedalus Project and the defense of it.
I'm sticking with the retrieval of Aurora and the preparation of the GAIA Computer as also being important.
So now the question is now how everything fits into that and what else might be involved?
Of course this time I actually have an answer to a degree but I ain't saying cause I want to see if anyone else has come to the conclusions I have on how things can work into those slots. It's actually obvious once one realizes what is needed for each part.
I kinda started with one thought and ended with another.
General idea is how we going to try and wrap up side stuff so as to make it seem a natural transition back to the primary objective of the story. Plus I was still looking at things questioning how they could fit but by the time I ended the thought I had a possible answer but still wanted to see what everyone else had in mind before I provide my answer.
Spoiler: HOLY SHIT THIS IS MY SINGLE FAVORITE PICTURE EVER (Wriggle's NSFW rating 4.5/10)
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 122 lb
Hair Color: Silver with a hue of pink
Eye Color: Blazing Red
Profession:
- ???
Inventory:
In her current state, Mokou is equipped with nothing. In fact, at the beginning of the story, Mokou isn't wearing anything. This is due to her clothes slowly burning away due to radiation from the stars in space and space debris striking her.
Because of her ability, Mokou does not need anything other than maybe a way to sustain herself in the vacuum of space. Her Hourai body acclimates to extreme conditions quite well.
Personality:
Originally posted by Wiki
Perhaps due to of being ostracized for so long, Mokou is a loner by nature and chooses not to socialize with humans or youkai. She escorts lost humans she finds within the Bamboo Forest of the Lost, giving herself a job similar to that of a bamboo forest guide, and even then after escorting between Human Village and Eientei, she departs without saying a word. Nevertheless, to those whom she's acquainted with, she speaks bluntly and with lively personality. In Imperishable Night's extra stage, for example, she was easily roused and goes on a rant about how annoying Kaguya is. Not much else is known about her as she doesn't really talk much to anyone.
She's commonly thought of as having an androgynous style due to using phrases like "~na no kashira?" and "~na no yo?" which are considerably women's language, all the while using a belligerent tone and wearing pants, which is commonly thought of as unusual among Touhou characters. Within her in-game sprite, she also keeps her hands in her pockets.
She undertakes the duty of escorting people in the Bamboo Forest of the Lost. Although this may allow her a wider opportunity to socialise with other people, she still remains very reticent about herself. For example, when asked about her past, she doesn't answer with anything other than "I'm an ordinary health maniac who runs a yakitori stand" (it is unclear whether she truly does run a yakitori stand). However, she seems to happily listen to others' talking. Thus, even if someone doesn't lose one's way, it would be possible for her to be enlivened by a conversation.
She presently seems to be very content with her life contrary to being commonly thought of having a pessimistic lifestyle. With an unageing, undying body, she and Kaguya Houraisan kill each other every day, and the text of Imperishable Night even emphasises this with the line "and she is alive to enjoy it, how magnificent!"
Mokou is brazen, blunt, and quite harsh sometimes. She doesn't talk much to strangers, although she is a good listener and will sit through your entire rant about things that are happening around with chic nods. Other than that, because of her boring lifestyle that has gone on for millenia, Mokou does not prefer taking actions; she mainly lets things happen around her.
Bio:
Spoiler:
When the end of Gensokyo was nigh, Yukari the great sage of Gensokyo sealed the spirits of every Youkais, fairies, and humans into a pocket dimension and went to a long slumber. Now, confined within a large chest are their accessories: legacy of their strength, their intelligence, and everything they had to offer inside. However, there are a few that could not be contained even in the tempered cage of fate...
Those were the Houraians.
Those accursed with the immortality of the Hourai Elixir work differently from the foundation. For examples, they cannot be killed, neither by senescence nor by acts of murder; they will just resurrect and enact vengeance if applicable. Their spirits have also been distorted, so when Yukari gathered spirits of every living thing in Gensokyo, she could not take the spirits of three Hourai drinkers: Eirin, Kaguya, and Mokou. They were left on Gensokyo as the final moments of the world crept closer and closer.
Kaguya and Eirin did not plan on staying caged inside the growing supergiant Sun until the ends of time. The duo gathered in the abandoned and decrepit Kappa Village, located the last rocket to space, and blasted off on their own. Mokou however stayed behind. Perhaps it was her never-ending grudge against Kaguya that prevented her from boarding possibly the last ticket to a prolonged life. Perhaps it was because she was fed up with having to resurrect every time she died, and thought that being swallowed by the sun would be the break of a never-ending cycle. Perhaps she was too attached to the world she was born in to escape from it. Either way, the end was nigh, and Mokou silently waited for it to all end...
However, her untimely doom was prolonged for another time, as she was struck by a shockwave, caused by a meteorite quarter the size of a moon landing merely 50 miles away from her, that had so much energy it knocked her out of orbit range and into the outer space.
Mokou traveled the empty space faster than a speeding bullet. She would constantly experience a cycle of death and rebirth, as she was constantly exposed to the vacuum of space without a suit on. Helpless, dormant, and unconscious, Mokou jetted through the universe for billions of years, crossing through many strange phenomenon in the space, such as time fissure, which took her back and forth timelines in a chaotic fashion, and wormholes. It was perhaps coincidence that she eventually entered the Venturian Galaxy, with plenty of new planets with sustainable life for Mokou to be expelled from the cycle of constant death and rebirth.
Notes:
Spoiler: NSFW for sexual language
I was only nine years old
I loved Mokou so much
I owned all the figures and dakimakuras
I pray to Mokou every night, thanking her for the life I have been given
"Mokou is love", I say, "Mokou is life"
Kaguya hears me and calls me a faggot
She is obviously jealous of my devotion to Mokou
I called her a cunt
She danmakus me and sends me to my room
I am crying now, because my face hurts
I go into my bed and it is very cold
I feel a warmth moving towards me
I fell something touch me
It's Mokou
I am so happy
She whispers into my ear, "Jelly donuts are so scary."
She grabs me with her powerful Hourai hands and puts me on my hands and knees
I'm ready
I spread my ass cheeks for Mokou
She penetrates my butthole
It hurts so much, but I do it for Mokou
I can feel my anus tearing as my eyes start to water
I push against her force
I want to please Mokou
She shouts "Fujiyama Volcano" as she fills my butt with her love
Kaguya walks in
Mokou looks her deep in the eyes and says, "It's all grilled bird now."
Mokou leaves through my window
Mokou is love, Mokou is life

Ok peeps, here's the deal:
I've figured out how to get everything into motion so as to attain the drive towards the EG story line. In the palace is Aion Astraeus with a resistance force. Achlys has been keeping them safe from Nihiliods. He will want to organize the final push to get ready for the finale. He would request two things: An army and a ship. Guess how that'll work out?
Grace and Heaven. Of course the army will need a bit more than what Grace industries can provide... That's where Neo Gensokyo might come in as well as whatever else anyone else might have in mind. I'm thinking Droid army as well, not certain how to set that up...
And yes, Mara and Bryn's Portal Guns will be quite useful as well considering they don't work like the Rift Gate tech the Venturians have. And I'll assume what knowledge they have can help outfit the resistance with alternative tech to help them move around undetected by the Unknown.
Hi, wanted to join your RP. Hope I did all this right. Also, as a note, I left a few minor things out, particularly about her backstory, partially because they're spoilery, partially because I don't have quite all of the details done.
Name:
Terra Kirisame (I originally made her for another site, so I made her last name Kirisame to highlight her similarities to Marisa. This is a Touhou forum, so that makes it feel kinda awkward, but I hope this clears up my reasoning for it.)
Gender:
Female
Appearance:
Terra is a young girl of 15 years with fair skin, wavy blonde hair and pale blue eyes that hold a distinct brightness in them. She is somewhat short and thin, her youthful face has a luminous, joyful cast, and she is somewhat pretty, although she doesn't stand out very much. She wears her hair straight except for a pair of tight braids that wrap around the sides of her head and meet in the back, tied off by a purple ribbon, and a hair decoration lie a purple flower adorns the right side of her head. Normally, she dresses in a soft purple corset and pink and gold skirt that is open in the front, a long purple and gold flag with an intricate design in front of her legs. Underneath, she wears purple shorts to facilitate her movements while battling, as well as black tights and half-sleeves over her forearms, and leather boots. She wears detailed gold armor consisting of a breastplate, spaulders with pink fabric hanging out, gauntlets over her forearms, and armor on the left and right of her skirt. In between her spaulders and breastplate, a golden bird-like design is crafted out of gold near her collarbone. Also, on the flag and the golden bird, some blue jewels shaped similarly to raindrops hang. These stones are instilled with magic that allows her wounds to heal more quickly. Also, if one got close enough to her, they would notice she wears perfume scented like lavender and vanilla.
As a magician, Terra possesses strong magical powers that she manifests mostly through light magic. She's able to use a wide variety of light magic while attacking, but she rarely goes into battle unarmed regardless of that. She also has a bit of ability to use magic other than light magic, elemental and otherwise, but she strongly prefers light, and as such, is quite abysmal at utilizing darkness (not that she ever enjoyed using it anyway). She has talent with other elements as well, such as lightning, fire and wind, but light is still her specialty. Also, the blue jewels on her clothes are magic stones that make her body recover from wounds at an accelerated rate, so while she can still be wounded, she will not need quite as long to recover as a normal person. She is rather quick, but lacks physical strength, however, as evidenced by how light all her weaponry is. She cannot lift very heavy loads, and she is also incredibly light, so she can be grabbed or lifted easily by an opponent.
Inventory:
Terra possesses two different weapons, both of which she is quite proficient in. Firstly, she has a rapier, named Polgliam. It's no normal rapier, however, as it was forged from light using magic, rather than being forged normally. Because of this, she is able to charge her blade with light energy, briefly encasing the blade in a soft pink glow to add power and speed to her strikes if she needs to. She can also summon or dispel the sword at will, and it weighs next to nothing. With her rapier, she moves and strikes quickly, but she lacks power and range. To compensate, she can instead dispel the blade between attacks to use light magic for a bit of a boost in range and power at the sacrifice of speed. She can even use her magic to create a bow and arrows instead of her rapier.
Terra's second weapon is a magical baton called Wynd Sacrios that is able to control the wind. By waving it like a conductor's baton, she can create razor winds, tornadoes, whirlwinds, and even some lightning to attack and disorient her foes, all while the baton makes music with the wind she attacks with. She can even use the baton's wind powers to fly, and when she does so glowing white feathers trail behind her. Unlike her rapier, this weapon is very focused on power and range. Unfortunately, she can't move very well while attacking and her strikes take more time to take effect, so she's tremendously open most of the time, causing her to favor the rapier a bit. She cannot summon this weapon to hand like she can with her rapier, so when carrying it, she keeps it in a small loop next to her hip.
Personality:
Terra is a kind, sweet girl with a rather astounding and commonly contradicting array of quirks. She is sometimes very shy around strangers and superiors and often reprimands herself for not being able to walk up to other people and make friends, as she is very critical of herself and lacks a bit of self-esteem. Because of this, and her general isolation from people, she is somewhat lonely, feeling she has no one to confide in, no matter how many friends she makes. Although, sometimes, when she is very excited, her shyness melts away and she becomes very hyperactive and talkative to the point of annoyance. However, when speaking to someone she is comfortable around, which many can become if they simply talk with her for a while, she shows that she is very sensitive, intelligent, and fun, and witty, though some find her somewhat annoying. She enjoys sarcasm, ironic humor, and playfully teasing her friends. She can be rather stubborn and seems childish at times, but that doesn't mean she can't be serious when she needs to be, as she often exhibits the maturity and wisdom required for a girl her age, and perhaps even someone older. These clashing sides of her lead some to believe she isn't shy at all, but instead loud and a bit odd. Regardless of where she is or how she's feeling, she's prone to getting lost in her thoughts, letting her eyes fixate on some random spot. Furthermore, regardless of how close she is, to someone, she usually finds it hard to make eye contact with people.
Adding to these various sides of her personality, she is somewhat lazy and dislikes work (other than battle). She has what some would call "never worked a day in her life" syndrome, as she is rather unskilled at most jobs besides battle. While she is smart, she is not always the most observant and can sometimes lack common sense. She's quite scatterbrained and flighty at times. She has a tendency to become stressed over very little things, and when she is stressed, she can develop headaches and become snappish. She has a strong dislike for people who she finds conceited, but would never act on her dislike because she also believes that she can be this way at times, too, and is self-conscious because of it. Terra also likes deceiving people, in a mischievous way rather than a malicious one, enjoying plans that involve some trickery. To couple with this, she also is skilled at finding loopholes and enjoys exploiting them. She can sometimes be a perfectionist when it comes to something she really cares about, but couldn't care less about perfection in most other cases. When in an uncomfortable position, such as talking to a person she has yet to be acquainted with, she adopts a more formal speech pattern, and she does this when in battle as well, or just to have fun occasionally, as she loves using advanced vocabulary.
She is unaccustomed to physical contact from members of the opposite sex, so if a boy gets close to her, she might blush and get noticeably more shy for a moment, especially if said boy is someone she finds attractive, who can cause these effects just by being near her. It should be noted she has never been romantically involved with anybody in any way. Oddly enough, despite her a light social anxieties, she enjoys performing, and, while she has a little bit of stage fright, it's not hard for her to enjoy acting or singing for an audience, and she can quickly become at home while doing so. She can sometimes be noticeably naive, and often has difficulty seeing flaws that people don't make obvious, which occasionally makes it hard for her to know if she can really trust new people. In battle, she prefers not to kill humans, instead simply defeating them and moving on. When fighting something, or some such important activity, she'll generally act focused and serious, and she'll fight as hard as she can. She likes saying things that make her seem "badass" and will not hesitate to speak to evil people with disdain or loathing.
Terra also operates on a very fine-tuned moral compass, knowing what is right and wrong and selecting right on most occasions. She can come across as selfish sometimes, wanting things to go her way most of the time, but can actually be somewhat self-sacrificing when she thinks she needs to be. She has a strong sense of empathy and likes to use it to help her friends sort out their emotions. However, she has difficulty asking for help with her own problems. She doesn't want to impose on anyone, so she often tries to deal with her issues herself. Sometimes she'll even actively hide her pain, though she can't explain why. She has a very strong desire to be a girl that people come to with their problems, but she also wishes for people to notice her own and assist her through them. Terra also is a skilled diplomat in times of strife. When faced with a compliment, she often doesn't quite know how to react without seeming rude, so praise sometimes makes her act nervously for a while. Another defining characteristic of hers is her obsession with anything she finds beautiful, such as flowers, music, and sunsets. She is also an avid reader who composes eloquent poetry and aims to write stories in the future. She almost feels like she's addicted to stories, doing anything she can to find more that pique her interest. Her greatest wish is to be like a hero from a storybook, as their lives seem far more glamorous than her own, but as her life goes on, she is being forced to realize that she might not get the fairy tale life she always hoped for, although such a fact is definitely hard for her to face.
History:
Terra was born into an ordinary family, or so she says.... Her father owned a second-hand shop and was able to support their family well, so it had seemed like Terra would go on to live a charmed life. However, at a young age, the girl had started to love reading books, and through this, she developed a fascination with magic. She desperately wanted to learn how to use it. It seemed so amazing to her, the ability to perform such miraculous feats, and as young as she was, she knew that she wanted only to learn how to use it.
Her family, however, did not agree with this. They didn't like magic much at all, and they refused to allow her to learn magic. Even at such a young age, her dreams had already been put to a stop. She slipped into a bit of a depression, unable to function with as much happiness as she once had. Whenever she tried to make an effort toward learning magic, her family would punish her quite severely, and she didn't have very many friends, so there was no one for her to reach out to. She didn't know if she could go on like that.
Thus, one day, when she was only ten, Terra simply left. She ran away from them and didn't look back. She would achieve her goals with or without them. She didn't know quite where to go, but that didn't stop her. She just had to get out. In the end, she just wound up having a house built for her on the outskirts of another town she found and liked, just a little bit into the woods. It was a good place for her to be alone when she needed it. A while before then, her parents - perhaps out of guilt or perhaps not - agreed to support her financially, so she was set. She could now study and learn magic, like she'd always wanted. She spent most of the money she didn't use on necessities on books. She even bought some weapons for herself to use.
And so the story goes. Or at least, what she's willing to talk about...
She continued living this way until the present. She would go into town to shop, maybe hang out with some of the few people there that she called friends, and then she'd go home and practice magic and read. However, there were a few things that were getting to her. Just like when she was little, there was no one she felt she could reach out to when she had problems, and that fact kept making her pretty lonely sometimes, but she shook it off. Also, she had begun to realize that, as a child, she had been leaning too heavily into her novels as an escape. Her magic alone wasn't enough for her. She needed to do something with it. She would always want to lead the lives of the heroes in the stories, but she was having trouble with that desire and what it meant in the real world. She was beginning to realize that she really wasn't happy ordinary life, but she was also realizing that such extraordinary things are as terrible as they are beautiful. Was it really what she wanted?
Regardless, there was nothing she could do to change it. She kept living her life, sometimes happy, sometimes sad, like any other normal human being, and whenever she was alone, she'd continue reading and practicing, waiting for the day that some great adventure would come and sweep her off her feet, just like in a story. Whether she truly wanted it to or not... for sometimes, extraordinary things are as beautiful as they are terrible.
