She'd be fun to meet with Suwako.
Anno, Raineh, If you'd be ok with it, I'd like to reprise Suwako when needed. Unless Sanae ( and now Shujiko) was in grave danger and THE WHOLE UNIVERSE IS GOING TO DIE I don't see her getting involved unless Sanae or Shujiko summon her. And after they leave gensokyo, I don't see her being able to observe them.
I'd like to bring in Panko as the only real character I feel a desire to play as in this round 2, but I'm not saying or doing anything about that until I'm done speaking to Att. That's why this is in spoiler.

Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.Nick, read the reason why Suwako and Kanako (also the Aki sisters and Hina) aren't allowed.
I see nothing wrong with them, so... accepted! Now, since Shinki-related characters are conspicuously absent, I'm going to use someone else:
- Name: Shokushuko (she really, really dislikes people using it in full)
- Age: ~91
- Gender: Female
- Species: Cephalopod Youkai, which tends to creep people out when they realise.
- Appearance: Shokushuko, at first glance, is about thirteen or fourteen and kind of small, with the same generic cuteness that applies to most of Gensokyo's residents. Her eyes are one of the normal youkai colours (red, the other one appears to be gold) and her hair is a sort of peach colour. All perfectly normal so far, right? Well, here comes the strange bit: no limbs. None in the sense of definite arms and legs or bones, at least. Instead, she has four cephalopod arms. You know an octopus's arms? Yeah, she has them. Pay attention and you notice that her hairs are actual tentacles (no suckers), being too thick to be individual strands and completely under her control.
Clothing-wise, she goes for something simple that she can easily get out of, given how much time she spends swimming and her dislike of wet clothes. This means a rather bland peach coloured sun-dress. - Personality: She's naive and friendly, having spent most of her life in the underground along with Yamame, Kisume, and Parsee. Mostly, she swims around in the river that the bridge crosses, humming to herself. Apart from that, Shokushuko loves to give people hugs... but she has no idea why they always seem so afraid. Naughty Tentacles have never even crossed her mind, though it's best not to give her ideas.
- Abilties, Spell Cards, all that good stuff: Flight, the ability to breathe underwater, the ability to talk to cephalopods (not that they normally have much to say), and Kisume-level danmaku.
If she's an actual character, I have no complaints.

I know why. I'm just saying if she does need to be played for sake of story, I'll reprise her for those brief moments. (sans one of those automatic summon attack things, like Sanae in 'Soku does)
Ok, after thinking about it, I think I'm just going to go with one character. None of that.
I'll play suwako when the situation requires it (because I played her last time). If what you all said holds true, this should be minimal.
Time for that annoying ghost from before, my little Stand In Oc, Panko.
- Name: Panko
- Title: Ghostly Evergreen
- Age: 7 months (and a few years of being a non-sentient ghost on the Sanzu River)
- Gender: Female
- Species: Onryo of a dead god. (Evil sealed. She no longer has any evil impulses as long as the seal is intact). Was formerly the goddess of Oak trees. No, she was never the ghost of the goddess of Cedar trees. Nope, not at all. (I goofed before. This is the correction)
- Appearance: A sixteen year old looking girl, Panko has long green hair, red eyes and not much to look at.
- Personality: Kinda energetic, Naïve Newcomer to not just gensokyo, but existence in general, is known to be bossy. Has a "Well Done, Son" Guy complex towards Reimu Hakurei, whom she's going out of her way to avoid (she feels too embarrassed to meet her). Panko also has a deep fear that she'll be forgotten and alone, that her Tsun-attitude covers up usually. Use to have a VERY, VERY bad habit of Too Dumb to Live. Now that she's lived long enough not to get herself killed, she's kinda getting better at this. Kinda. She's And in most other cases, will fall into the type A Tsun-Tsun, especially when she's embarrassed.
- Abilities: Standard Onryo powers (aka, movie monster teleportation), standard ghost abilities (intangibility, invisibility, possession and undead status)
- Power: Maniplation of Oak.
- Spell Cards: All the stuff used in the first RP, rest is TBA
Backstory: Following the events of the RP, Panko resurfaced from Ecthel's body, but now wanting help in purifying herself from the evil Onryo instincts that she couldn't control. Luckily, this was easier done then said. Heading to the mountain shrine to see Sanae (or Komachi helped her), Sanae was able to seal the evil within Panko's soul, and as long as the seal on her is intact, she will no longer have Always Chaotic Evil impulses.
Follow, she got to work on revivng herself to what she was before she died. The Goddess of Oak trees (not cedar trees, who gave you that idea?). As such, she's declared Ecthel (the one of the three people she really knows) to be her follower and has been staying with his family in the human village since the end of the RP, ordering him around to build her a shrine and to get her followers.
She says until he does so, she won't be leaving him alone. Take a guess how this ends.
At least she can give his family all the firewood they need for the winter, as well as enough to sell to make a profit. Being able to make oak out of nowhere has it's perks
Deep down, she does want to confront Reimu Hakurei, the person responsible for her existence. Still having not even met her (Reimu barely knows she even exists, sans the fact she hides whenever Reimu comes on by), these two have quite a bit to discuses.

Mystia, Ecthel, and Panko against the world and not quite aware of the plot.
Forever liveblogging the AvengersTouche, GM person. Touche.
But you can lead a Mystia to plot, but you can't make her smart about it.
Or rather, I'll just try my utmost to play her in-character.

If that's the case, she'll probably be hiding inside Ecthel again, to avoid Reimu.
I would assume Yukari would be completely aware of this, if not that's why Ecthel was there in the first place.
And yay Mystia! The Cute and lovely night sparrow. I'm sure Panko will be ecstatic to glomp and hug that she's there.

And also, we mustn't forget Riotous Rascal too.
He's right now spending time in Europe on vacation. He said three weeks, I assume he'll be back just around christmas.
I'm sure with Yukari's hax and gambiting, we having nothing fear...I think.
Maybe I should always be weary of what Yukari's planning...
Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.She's planning on stealing Satori's bed, the Excalisnooze. To do this she needs to convince a bunch of people to go to the outside world. This will help her plan somehow.
Forever liveblogging the AvengersPart way through the RP, Yukari went to Satori's house, got into her bed and went to sleep and wasn't seen since. The joke that I made is that Satori's bed is a legendary bed of renown, that is the most comfortable rest anyone will ever have.
Satori needs this level of comfort because she can't get a good nights sleep due to hearing random thoughts everywhere. Its like trying to go to sleep when a crowd of people is having several different conversations in the same room.
Since Yukari is a connoisseur of sleeping, she recognized Satori's bed for the treasure that it is and began planning to steal it.

Okay, here we are. Gender-flipped as requested; it turned out to be easier to do than I thought.
