The Lady of Mayohiga. A warlock with strange, pallid skin and the nifty ability of OffscreenTeleportation, with the downside that being seen renders it ineffective. According to supplementary material, she is the third 'Yukari Yakumo' to rule Mayohiga. [[spoiler:As it turns out, she's one and the same as the founder of House Yakumo, also named Yukari]].

* BlondesAreEvil
* CannotCrossRunningWater: Her teleportation powers require [[BloodMagic intense pain]] to work, but with the cases of crossing running water and the sea, special preparation needs to take place.
* TheChessmaster: On the same level as [[spoiler:her partner in crime]], Yuyuko. She plays Reimu like a fiddle and [[spoiler:sets up a wedding massacre that puts most of the Vale under wight control]], and is ultimately only brought down by [[spoiler:Reimu's refusal to die]] and [[spoiler:Koishi living on in a wolf, unravelling Yuyuko's grasp over the Minelands, the region best positioned to attack Mayohiga]].
* FauxAffablyEvil: Is unflinchingly polite at all times. Also perfectly willing to [[spoiler:backstab her Lady Paramount to take the Borderlands for herself and murder several Vale nobles at a wedding]].
* [[spoiler:{{Immortality}}]]: [[spoiler:Is immortal thanks to her magic]].
* TheInformant: To Yuyuko.

* NotInThisForYourRevolution: Both to Reimu and [[spoiler:Yuyuko]]. With the former, it's clear she couldn't care less about the Hakureis' literally religious hatred of the Moriyas, and the latter [[spoiler:due to her not giving a rat's ass about smallfolk rights, merely wanting to back what she thought was the most powerful player in Noros]].
* NotSoStoic: While generally calm, she freaks out after realizing [[spoiler:her attempt to pull a ScrewThisImOuttaHere won't fly due to Yamame observing her through her spiders, cutting off her planned OffscreenTeleportation to Qarth and causing her to die by poison]].
* OffscreenTeleportation: Her chief power involves instantaneous teleportation to anywhere so long as she has no observers.
* PerfectPoison: Whatever poison is used [[spoiler:to commit the Blue Wedding]] is this, causing quick unconsciousness and death after a slight lag. [[spoiler:[[AvertedTrope Averted]] with the spider venom that kills Yukari, which is slow-acting and begins with nausea and weakness]].

* SmugSnake: Seems to think that she's got Yukari well under her control. No-one but her is convinced.
* SigilSpam: Her personal armor spams the emblems of the Old Gods.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With the heathen warlock Yukari. [[spoiler:It goes as well as you'd expect]].
* [[spoiler:ThatManIsDead]]: [[spoiler:After her inverse HeelFaithTurn she resents her formerly pious self]].
* UnreliableNarrator: As a sixteen year-old blinded by faith and religious hatred, she is certainly this.
* UnwittingPawn: Is one to Yukari, quite obviously to everyone but her.
[[folder:Septa Reimu Hakurei*]]
The Lady Paramount of the Borderlands and Septa of the Shrine of the Sea. A pious girl of sixteen that has inherited her family's hatred of the Moriyas while being too naive to question it. Becomes a POV character in Chapter 19.
* AChildShallLeadThem: Is ruling the Borderlands at sixteen.
* ActionGirl: Tries, [[SubvertedTrope and fails]], to be this.
* AdaptationalVillainy: Is a bigoted, borderline idiotic fundamentalist in this, as opposed to slightly sarcastic [[TheHero Hero]] in Canon.
* AdaptationalWimp: Is TheHero in Canon, but an ineffective fighter in this.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Is extremely self-righteous, and sees the Hakureis as automatically good and the Moriyas as automatically evil.
* CharacterDevelopment: In thanks to a good amount of trauma from [[spoiler:the Blue Wedding]], Reimu slowly becomes a better person.
* [[spoiler:CrisisOfFaith]]: [[spoiler:After the Blue Wedding]], she suffers a major HeroicBSOD and ends up losing faith in her Gods]].
* DirtyCoward: [[spoiler:Runs for the hills after the Blue Wedding, not even thanking Sangaku for his HeroicSacrifice]].
* {{Foil}}: In a way, to Kikuri. Both are sixteen and in a position of authority, but while Reimu is a poor fighter, Kikuri is skilled, and while Reimu is easily strung along and gullible, Kikuri is independent and a {{Badass}}.
* TheFundamentalist: Is extremely pious and obsessed with her family faith, continuing the feud with the Moriyas. [[spoiler:This doesn't last after the Blue Wedding]].
* [[spoiler:HeelFaithTurn]]: [[spoiler:[[InvertedTrope Inverted]]. She becomes a far more sympathetic character after she ''loses'' her faith]].
* [[spoiler:HeroicBSOD]]: [[spoiler:Suffers one after the Blue Wedding, her following POV having her raving in her mind and confusedly flitting from faith to non-faith]].
* [[spoiler:HollywoodAtheist]]: [[spoiler:Becomes one after her CrisisOfFaith, resenting the Gods for never helping her]].
* MilesGloriosus: Goes into battle thinking her Gods will protect her. She ends up having to retreat from BadassCouple Sanae and Sangaku.
* [[spoiler:MiseryBuildsCharacter]]: [[spoiler:As it turns out, it helps build her character quite a bit]].
* OddFriendship: With Koakuma Waters, of all people.
* PetTheDog: Her care and [[spoiler:grief]] for Shingyoku Borders despite his bastardy.
* RealtyEnsues: Her various charms and emblems of the Old Gods on her mail do ''nothing'' to help her in battle.
* SmugSnake: Seems to think that she's got Yukari well under her control. No-one but her is convinced.
* SigilSpam: Her personal armor spams the emblems of the Old Gods.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With the heathen warlock Yukari. [[spoiler:It goes as well as you'd expect]].

The ruling house of the Borderlands, they take residence in the HolyCity of the Shrine of the Sea. They are a notably pious noble house, their ruling members being [[ShoutOut Septons]] or [[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire Septas]] of the Old Gods of the Borderlands. Due to their [[CelibateHero religious principles]], the ruling members never marry or have children, so the line of succession goes from uncle/aunt to nephew/niece. Their family has a [[FeudingFamilies feud]] with the Moriyas, which are more libertarian preachers of the Old Gods, as opposed to their [TheFundamentalist fundamentalist]] worldview. Their sigil is a black-and-white emblem of their patron god, The Border ([[CallARabbitASmeerp resembling a yin-yang symbol]]) on a red field, and their motto is 'Tradition, Honor, Power' according to supplementary materials.

The Borderlands exist to the very south of Noros, making it the closest place in Noros to Essos.

In the center is a thick forest which apparently houses tribes, [[spoiler:though as Yukari's one POV shows, they have since been converted into a cache of wights]]. Bastards in this region have the surname 'Borders'.

* AuthorityInNameOnly: Though they supposedly rule the Borderlands, as Shingyoku Borders notes, Yukari Yakumo has them wrapped around her little finger.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Their representation of their patron God, the Border, is supposed to show [[SubvertedTrope the falseness of this belief]], as there is black in the white and white in the black, however their [[{{Hypocrite}} their actual]] [[TheFundamentalist attitude]] makes this a [[DoubleSubvertedTrope double subversion]].

* AuthorityInNameOnly: While Septa Reimu Hakurei supposedly rules the region, it's obvious the Yakumos truly rule the region.
* DemotedToExtra: The region as a whole is a reference to the areas fringing Gensokyo, which are of high importance in Canon, but the Borderlands themselves play a small role in Game of Touhou, though [[spoiler:Yukari Yakumo]] does not.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: In order for the Borderlands to be united, this has to occur, as Septa Reimu is a pious devotee of the Old Gods while Lady Yukari is a 'heathen' warlock.
* SixthRanger: Both the rebellion and the loyalists (with exception of the Moriyas) turn a blind eye to them, and they mostly are caught up doing their own thing. [[spoiler:As it turns out, when the Moriyas consider the Hinanawis the bigger threat and see Yukari as a mere SixthRanger, it allows her to become a SixthRangerTraitor to the Vale as a whole]].
