Every youkai has different rules about how long they live. Everyone except Kaguya and Mokou have a definite lifetime. As far as I know, humans are the shortest, faeries after that, magicians after that, and everyone else I have no clue, but I'd assume vampires live insanely long.

There's some connection with colors and the power of beings in Gensokyo. I remember reading somewhere that the more colors (probably associated with danmaku colors) you can control the more powerful you are. However I could mention various examples where that isn't necessarily true, like Meiling having access to all colors of the rainbow. Image related.

there is a tentative link between frequency and power red -> violet, read yukaris' entry on touhou wiki, but its not hard and fast.

I always liked the idea she wasn't born with wings and that the wings aren't really needed for either of the vampire sisters. Flandre, wanting to be more like her sister fashioned her own wings by shoving a couple metal poles into her back, decorated them and called it good.

It would certainly be awesome crazy and given the mythic nature of Youkai it wouldn't surprise if they slowly became part of her form and more then just decoration.

There are loads of ideas about them with no real explanations. In a sense, I kind of like that about Touhou fiction, not everything is explained and leaves a lot to the imagination.

That's more or less what I said I'd like her to have done. It's not like anyone (anyone who matters at least) has trouble flying without wings but Flandre has the kind of mentality that would do something like fashioning her own wings to be like her older sister (while making them pretty).

I just went further and figured Youkai being the way they are, like how long lived animals may become Youkai or inanimate dolls discarded forever in a field of poisonous flowers, her decoration would eventually by association just become part of her.

Most things in Touhou to me come across with a kind of fairy tail mentality where anything can happen if it sounds good enough for a story. Physically eating history to conceal a village fits well in that sense, it sounds cool as hell but practically is a headache to work out.

The thing about Touhou powers is that they're vaguely defined, so really, any character can do anything they want.

It was like the old Superfriends when the Flash would scream about vibrating and would suddenly be flying.

The less said about Suika and Yukari the better, most characters are at least limited to a degree as to what they can do. Suika and Yukari have some of the most broken awesome abilities imaginable, both explored to a degree in fan works.

Also funny how ZUN made a point of explaining how Yukari could manipulate barriers both real and fictional. That was pretty wtf.

>> No.107740

Of course, final Touhou series ending (if ZUN ever gets to that point, it's still going strong) would be awesome if when you finally defeated the last extra mode boss with Reimu/Yukari team it has Meribel wake up and realise the whole thing has just been a long series of escapism dreams.
