Nitori Kawashiro (河城 にとり Kawashiro Nitori) is a Kappa who has the power to control water and is very good with engineering, technology as well as running businesses. She first appeared as the Stage 3 boss in Mountain of Faith and became a possible supporting character for Marisa Kirisame in Subterranean Animism. She then became a playable character in multiple fighting games since Hopeless Masquerade. Personality Nitori is a shy kappa by nature and if she is alone and sees a human, she'll run away, like in Mountain of Faith. She considers herself to be superior to humans and even other youkai and when she's by herself it's easy to see. However, when among her own circle of friends, she is quite cheerful. As a kappa, she is easily persuaded to leave you alone by a cucumber or two. However, she has a greedy side when it comes to running a stand and is quick to come up with plots to maximize profit. Abilities Manipulation of water Her ability to manipulate water is inherent in the fact that she is a kappa, and has nothing to do with the myriad tools she uses. No one knows the true extent of this power, but she has been seen to use it to shoot water, create fountains, perform theatrical tricks and even summoning colossal tidal waves. Using tools Akyuu makes a note that kappa, historically, have had an trait called tsuuhai (通背), which means their arms are connected inside their body and they can stretch one arm by retracting the other. However, it is said that they are actually just using tools to make it seem as though their arms stretch. In Wild and Horned Hermit chapter one, Reimu receives a "kappa's arm" that ends up being a mechanical arm. In Hopeless Masquerade, Nitori is also seen using several arm-like machines to attack. Occupation Like most Kappas, she usually resides in Genbu Ravine on Youkai Mountain and is an engineer who are very interested in products made by the humans of the outside world. She takes such products apart and puts them back together in order to understand them. However, she has trouble creating magical tools of any sort. She will also open stands usually in the Human Village but also in many other places in Gensokyo. She is fond of selling her inventions and other things such as fish as her story mode in Hopeless Masquerade details her attempts at running a stand before getting sucked into the battle. According to Hina Kagiyama, she is also somewhat of a leader figure for the kappa. Possessions Nitori possesses many small devices and objects and carries them all in her backpack. MARISA Marisa is an outgoing and informal person. Hieda no Akyuu states that her personality is condescending, but she has a sophisticated side to her that tends to be interesting. She socializes with many inhabitants of Gensokyo and is friendly to both human and non-humans individuals. She's quick to act if she hears or sees anything interesting, sometimes doing dangerous things to satiate her interest at the time like when she follows an eagle on a whim in the middle of a blizzard. She speaks in an informal manner and typically uses the sentence ending particle da-ze~ (ぜ). REIMU Reimu is defined as unusually easygoing, lacking any sense of danger, and being carefree. She is described as simpleminded, always showing her true feelings and acting on whatever ideas she thinks, She can also be emotional and noisy, and her presence is well known wherever she is, but she can also merge into her surroundings quite easily when necessary. She is portrayed as someone simple who passes her days sweeping the shrine grounds, drinking green tea and lazing about
Reimu was surprised to see a daredevil making a raid on the Hakurei Shrine, sanae kochiya, who claims to be a shrine maiden of the moriya shrine, located on the youkai mountain, Gensokyo’s never bas another shrine, nor having another shrine maiden, sanae urged reimu to either surrender or go out of business, but there’s no way reimu would stay silent and obey her, so she whent on to attack the youkai mountain! Unable to match reimu, who’s gotten serious, youkai of the mountain were defeated one by one, although the youkai mountain is a special place dominated by tengu, where other youkai and humans are not allowed to enter, marisa was secretly invited by aya while she seems to have her own thoughts about it, aya headed to intercect reimu, but marisa can’t stand being ordered to stay back in aya office so she run away to join reimu
