Character name: Flandre Scarlet
Fandom: Touhou Project
Timeline: Post EoSD
Age: 495
~*Magical*~ abilities and strengths: (Some of this is a bit of head canon for her and will be marked with a *)
Destruction- Flandre has the ability to destroy anything and everything that exists. She does this by taking the eye, A stress point that she can see, into her hands and crushing the eye. Nothing is exempt from this power. If it is a person, when she holds the 'eye' in her hand, they might feel a bit of uneasiness or like their heart is being gripped by something nasty*. She does not know of this effect so she would not be using this ability for this effect on anyone*.
Vampire- Due to this, She has many abilities as she does weaknesses that negate this. She has immense strength and speed, along with a high regeneration ability. She can also create doppelgangers of herself and fly freely. With all of this comes a cost though, as Sunlight can be deadly to her if out in it too long. Along with that, she can not approach broken holly branches or cross rapidly flowing rivers or is even burnt by roasted soy beans. And thing that bothers her extremely is silver, as it forces her regeneration to slow to a crawl if not completely shut off for a time. She can also turn into a single bat but normaly will not use this, as she tends to forget she can do this.
Spell Cards- Flandre is also quite skilled in the non-lethal form of fighting, Danmaku, and has several of the spell cards used within the fights. Although she does not get to fight using this very often. These are her spell card lists. She will use a few of them to keep herself occupied when alone or even with others, depending on how she feels. (4 of a Kind can be manipulated to bring out less of the clones, if she just wants to talk and And Then There Will Be None? can be used to go invisible..although she does leave a blue trail of lights behind her. So She thinks she can not be seen but can be spotted if one is paying attention.)
How would they use their abilities?: Flandre has a very hard time seeing the line between people and objects so if she was to destroy someone and kill them, she would not understand what she has done is wrong. There are very few people she sees as 'people' and not objects, The SDM, Reimu and Marisa, so she would likely take the eye of someone and 'break' it without thinking twice. Until someone would teach her that it is wrong.
But in the event of her getting missions (Eventually...maybe) She would use whatever she had to help her along with the job at hand. And She will probably fly around just to get around faster for the most part.
Appearance: Isn't she adorable?
Flandre is the size of a very slender 5 year old child, Standing at about 4'3". Her eyes are a dark scarlet color and her hair hangs down to just below her shoulders and golden, pulled to the side in a ponytail. She is usually wearing a Red dress and vest with a light pink/white* shirt under the vest with a yellow ascot.
As per most vampires, Flandre's canine teeth are a bit longer then most and can grow larger still when excited, feeding or fighting. Her wings on the other hand, look slightly unnatural to most, being on iron bars and prism shards coming out straight from her back like any normal wings. These are notably larger then Flandre is herself and move as if they were apart of her, which she is quite sure they are. The prisms on each wing are as follows*, Light Blue, Blue, Purple, Pink, Orange, Yellow, Light Green and then Light blue again. She can also be see with a wand like sword, which is the mythical sword Lævateinn.
(*Most Fanart of her change both these with a white shirt and her wings following the rainbow pattern.)
Personality: Flandre is somewhat a 2 sided coin. What you see in her depends on what kind of mood she is in. There are other things that can factor into these shifts in her personality but usually they are very simple to notice. Being in the basement for nearly 500 years has affected her more then she would like to admit, if she even notices this at times. Things such as normal Social skills and how to react to normal, everyday situations are things she never really learned. Due to this she can be seen as a cute little girl with no social skills or a raving, terrifying lunatic who would rather tear your face off then try and talk to you.
One side is as innocent and docile. While in this state, she is curious about just about everything. She will happily talk your ear off, even if it does not quite make sense some of the time. Her attention span is like a 5 year old with ADHD, Unless you have something, or have shown her something that is more interesting then whatever she was about to move onto. This side of her is usually easy to get along with, although if she finds you interesting you might need to pry her off of you at some point. She might also trail off and run off to chase butterflies. To put it mildly, she is a curious and friendly kitten who does not know her own strength.
The other side of that is a dangerous, unstable child of destruction. In this state, She will keep attacking and just be a ball of violence until knocked out or exhausted. She can also be reasoned out of this state, but for those she does not know, this is not recommended, nor safe. Another, probably safer way is to simply knock her out. With all the vampire strength she has and the dangerous abilities she can use, she isn't quite as indestructible as she would like you to believe. A few sold hits and she will be out for the count. This can be triggered by not eating for a while, taking about cellars or someone threatening her wings. Her wings are a big deal for her and the thought of something happening to them brings up a lot of past trauma about them.
It is easy to tell where she is mentally just by how she talks. Usually she will just ramble on and trail off mid-sentence when alone or talking with others. There are times she will be calm and speak as if a normal person, There is a brief period of her speaking as clearly as one can before she will fall into a panic attack or even into the insanity.
The side most people will see is the childish and docile side, as the more insane side only tends to come out when threatened or if she has not fed in a few days. She likes to talk to herself, often using doppelgangers to converse with, even though doing this for too long gives her a headache due to the sensory overload each one gives her. Although this might be one of the few times she might make some sense, due to the other doppelgangers finishing her sentences sometimes. Other then that it's more of the same.
Flandre is also easily intimated by female authority figures that remind her of her sister. Commands or orders given in a strict tone, or sounding close to Remilia will get immediate obedience and maybe a bit of cowering. The closer one can get to sounding like Remilia, the more willing she is to obey. This is one of the few ways to bring her out of her moments of insanity but even this may fail at times. She is easily startled with things like this.
Background The Touhou Project has many 'minor' characters and unfortunately, Flandre is one of them, even as the Extra Boss in The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. Only the Main Characters really get back stories and even then good luck with that. So with that in mind, I will list what Canon background Flandre has. (I will also go with Remilia's back story as well and reference it a little bit.)
Flandre is known as many things to the land of Gensokyo- Little Sister to Remilia Scarlet, The Scarlet Devil Mansion's 'Dirty Little Secret'. With the second comes a story of her being locked into that basement for about 500 years. In reality, she was convinced to be down there by Remilia and after a while, forgot why she was even down there, but out of respect for her sister, kept her promise to stay there. She does not remember much from her past before the basement, although in times of her insanity she will get flashes of it. The one spot the fairies in the mansion believe is safe is the one place she will not go near, the cellar. Rumors float around about her even through the ranks for the fairy maids to humans in the village that a monster lives there and no one ever returns from there.
This first time she had seen another person who was not of the mansion was Marisa Kirisame. In the Extra stage, she returns to the mansion while Remilia is out and finds the household in complete chaos. Flandre had heard of the humans in the mansion who had defeated her sister and wanted to see along with have a bit of fun outside of the basement for a little while. When the two end up running into each other, she is curious and her want to learn more about humans is raised. She asks to play with Marisa and they get into a danmaku duel. Flandre loses this battle but after that, she is curious and wanting to learn about the outside world.
Have you read up on how the game works?: Flaming Ferret is the guide Plug in and the ways to get money is Missions, Steal it or Freelance
1st person sample:
[There is a shot of the floor when the video feed turns on. Not much going on..Nothing to see here...Although there is a very soft chiming noise in the background. Quite calming until a small girl's voice speaks. It's soft and very frightened sounding but still a child's voice.]
What is...Where am I? This isn't home...Remi? Sakuya? Patchouli? Meiling?
[The Guide moves and finally shows Flandre, who is looking around in a bit of a panic. Her wings are wrapped around her body and she looks close to crying. She was lost and scared and she could not find anyone she knew nor knowing where she was. The guide falls from her hand as a sharp sound startles her and then the video cuts off.]
3rd person sample:
It was dark in the basement but that did not bother Flandre one bit. The soft glowing of her scarlet eyes helped a bit as she wandered the hallways. Although, even if she was not able to see in the dark, She knew the basement like the back of her hand. Living there for so long had her memorize the layout and could probably walk the entire place blindfolded.
A door opening with a spark crack had her scrambling under a table near by to hide from whoever was heading out the door. It was two fairy maids, talking and chatting like nothing was wrong. They stopped and looked about, saying something about 'The Monster' wasn't around and they should be safe. As they moved on, Flandre frowned at what they said, which then turned into a mischievous smile. Why not have a bit of fun with them, show them a 'Monster'? She quickly took off down another hallway, gathering items and trying to make it to the entrance before the maids did.
It took a bit of time and effort but her idea was ready. All that she needed was for the maids to get there. It didn't take too much longer, as the chatter reached her ears after a bit. She giggled and got into place. Once they got near, they got a shock.
Shining on the wall was a silhouette of Flandre, the crystals on her wings showing the colors from the light. She just stood in a threatening manner and started to giggle. The maids screamed and took off running, much to her delight. Once they were gone she put the items she used for this prank back and skipped back to her room. She was sure to be scolded but it was worth it.
Questions?: How much sunlight is there around the Thor and such. Seeing as she will probably freak out the instant something on her starts to burn.Also- She is starting fresh!
