IC INFORMATION Character's Name: Tenshi Hinanawi Age: Immortal(-ish), appearance-wise in her late teens Canon Point: Post-Scarlet Weather Rhapsody. Species: Celestial Gender: Female Orientation: There is no romance in Touhou. There are only bullets and hats. Tenshi lives in a hedonistic paradise, however, so I assume she's cool with whatever - after a while, it's still boring to her.
Personality:Bhava-agra...The highest realm of heaven. A world beyond consciousness. And yet, even in a place like that, there were still imperfect people.
Tenshi can be summed up in four words: spoiled little angel/Tennyo girl. Her celestial lifespan is renewed by defeating shinigami, which wards off the 'Tennin Gosui', or the five omens of an angel's death. But she is hardly angelic. In fact, she is downright unlikeable.
She taunts, insults and lies, sometimes not so playfully. Usually she is not quick to anger, but rather to condescend and patronise - especially when people do not understand her meanings or motives. (Then she just becomes impatient.)
Wasn’t it strange that those on the earth always thought of heaven as a paradise...?
Her personality is formed by her experience in Bhava-Agra, the highest heaven: said to be overcrowded with righteous souls, it is in fact the vast, empty playground of sly and ambitious types who do not wish to give up their land. But Tenshi, though never having to work or with much perception of any harsh realities, is not satisfied with just this.
Tenshi is plagued by boredom, though it does not seem to effect the other celestials, who are content to continue eating their peaches. This means that any 'new' experience is exciting for her, even if it displeases others. For example, the affairs of humans and youkai are mere 'games' that she hardly takes seriously. The celestials are far removed from the ordinary life of the land-dwellers, as if they were but ants to them. She disregards the human cost of her 'games' in order to achieve her aims of enjoying the subsequent angry challenges of Gensokyo's residents.
It’s been a long time since I met someone as irritating as you.
No stranger to smooth talk, she also reassures Reimu that her shrine being leveled was a good thing in the end, as during the rebuilding process she places a earthquake-preventing keystone beneath it as an act of apology - despite the fact that she could remove it at will if she chose to. Additionally, she ends up making said shrine a place of worship of herself and her family before it is destroyed a second time (although she doesn't think of her actions as a big deal, herself). She does as she pleases, in the pursuit of pleasure, with no concern for the emotions of others. She is selfish in the extreme, or at the very least terribly oblivious. If you call her out, whether on her rudeness or wealth, then you're just jealous.
But how much of it is for show? Is she totally heartless? She is scared of Komachi, the shinigami, when she first sees her, although quickly reasserts her taunting, giggling demeanor. Tenshi is a lot more vulnerable than she first appears. Much of the teasing is because she wants a distraction from the monotony of her life in paradise. Growing up in heaven must also nullify her good experiences, as they become more usual. As she is not respected as an individual, with her own strength, she wants attention most of all, and loses on purpose it it'll make things more interesting. She appears legitimately hurt when she realises the depth of the cast's dislike for her at the end of her route. Apparently she was not aware how playing her rebellious megalomaniac role would alienate her to others, but she tries to make it up to them by attending their party and chatting amicably: at the end, they have come to accept her a little more. For once, she is happy, and not bored in the slightest.
Tenshi still seems mainly 'impossible to deal with', going by the exasperated words of the oarfish youkai Iku Nagae (who spends a great deal of her time trying to sort out the mess Tenshi makes; Tenshi conversely cannot remember her name). But deep inside there is still a young girl who wants to be liked and respected like any other - it is just that Tenshi goes about it in the most obnoxious way possible.
Abilities:Sky, show your dominance over the earth! Earth, release your keystones! Reflect the scarlet color of their souls!
First, Tenshi has her celestial abilities. Her long lifespan, for one, and the fact her body is poisonous to youkai or demons.
All Touhou characters can use danmaku, non-lethal bullets of energy. They also each have an individual, unique power. Tenshi, along with the rest of her clan, can control soil, which involves mainly raising rocky formations and controlling and preventing earthquakes. She always carries multiple earthquake-stopping keystones with her, which she also uses as danmaku. Touhou characters can also use 'spell cards', which are stronger bursts of magical energy.
All Touhou characters can fly.
She stole the Sword of Hisou (Scarlet Perceptions), a fiery, shape-shifting blade that can appear out of thin air. (Clearly Tenshi has a very handy inventory system going on here.) She uses the sword to drag the innermost essences of people out of their bodies, which manifests as weather. This means that the sword effectively can always land a 'critical hit' in the right circumstances, being able to exploit an opponent's weak point. The channelled scarlet essences can also be used as armour, protecting Tenshi.
Third Person: Cerulean sky, mild weather and the peaceful sound of wind rustling through leaves. All of them pointless, repetitive and so awfully dull it almost made Tenshi want to fall back asleep again. There was just one issue, though - the smooth, hard surface at her back, which was so alien to her she lifted herself up out of sheer curiousity.
A lawn chair. Strange. She could have sworn she had fallen asleep on some perfectly-stitched, white-feathered cushions, same as any other day. This was somewhat of a downgrade in comparison.
The realisation came slowly, after she used her house key, wandered inside, unaware and uncaring of anyone inside - not like they were important, since they would probably try to engage her in some vapid conversation about peaches.
There weren't any peaches in the refrigerator. That was also strange. There was a decent selection of clothes in the closet - colourful dresses as per usual - but no spare hats. That was especially strange.
Tenshi brought the cellphone close to her face, sizing up the weight of the foreign object in her delicate pale hands. Turned it on. The flash of light illuminated the scarlet in her eyes, and her mouth twitched upwards into a smirk.
"Well hello, Holly Heights."
Now this was exciting.
