Medicine Melancholy - Little Sweet Poison ## Personality Gender: Female Age: Ageless Appearance: Medicine has silver-blue coloured eyes and blonde curly hair. She wears a dark red-purple shirt with red seams, a red skirt with red-purple seams, shoes in the same color and a pink bow at her back. She has a red ribbon in her hair. She is accompanied by a tiny doll that is similar to her appearance. Personality: Due to her becoming a youkai only recently and never leaving the Hill of the Nameless, Medicine is very immature and her experience and knowledge are overwhelmingly shallow. After being judged by Eiki, Medicine starts to learn how to empathize. Between the events of Phantasmagoria of Flower View and Silent Sinner in Blue, Medicine has learned to be more sociable. Her ability is to manipulate poison. Hobby/Occupation: (No occupation), Manipulation of poison Additional Information: ● Medicine Melancholy is a young doll youkai that lives on the Hill of the Nameless surrounded by poisonous lily-of-the-valley flowers. ● Medicine harbors an extreme hatred for humanity, and will actively try to poison anyone near her presence. This combined with her dreadful ability makes Medicine a very frightening youkai who should be avoided at all costs. ● Her ability is to manipulate poison. Medicine is able to manipulate poison, where she can use the poison on everything; food, attacking and even herself could be covered with poison. It seems to be not merely the poison of lily-of-the-valley, but of all kinds (the poison of wasps, snakes, spiders, alcohol, nicotine, etc). It has the effect such that even touching her will cause inflammation; there's currently no definite treatment method. Even strong youkai could be at risk from her poison, and it may cause after effects too. However, since she's in the early childhood of not having lived around the range of several hundred years, she isn’t able to skilfully control her own power, and doesn’t know how to go easy. Because some of her attacks create clouds of poison in the player's side of the field which slow the player's movements and make dodging difficult, she can be a very troublesome opponent for those that don't take care while near poison. Though supposedly not especially powerful or experienced among youkai, the right poison can affect even very strong people or large numbers of people at once. Incidentally, since she is not a living thing, the poison has no effect on her at all. Since all poison are raw materials for drugs, she would have good compatibility with the drug maker Eirin Yagokoro. The ingredients of seeds that can be taken from plants can cause animals to go insane. She learned that from experience, and she established a way to freely manipulate humans with poison. ● Since a few hundred years has still not passed from the time she became youkai, she is a novice youkai. Dolls are usually manipulated by humans. Because of this, she wishes for doll emancipation, but there aren't many dolls who agree with her since dolls can't move to begin with. ● She was originally a large doll used in ventriloquism. ● Although she is labeled as a youkai, Medicine's true nature may be that of a tsukumogami, as described in the Perfect Memento in Strict Sense article about the Eight Million Gods. ● She is accompanied by a tiny doll that is similar to her appearance. ● She despises all humans that she encounters. Though, she doesn't actually know how to deal with humans. In Perfect Memento in Strict Sense, her human friendship level is listed as "poor" while her danger level is listed as "high". ● Her relationship with Alice Margatroid is consistently close, confirming that they are at least aware of each other in a positive light. ● Fanart commonly depicts Medicine with doll joints.
