Reimu Hakurei

Reimu Hakurei is a character who debuted in Find the Koishis II.
==Canon Facts==
Considered the protagonist of the Touhou Project as a whole, and having existed since the very first game in the series Highly Responsive to Prayers, Reimu Hakurei is a shrine maiden with genocidal tendencies a righteous belief to protect and maintain order in Gensokyo. If there's an incident unfolding or the youkai have shit the bed again, it's Reimu's job to right the issue. Often times, she's with her best friend Marisa Kirisame fixing the problem.
Her ability is.. to float, apparently. One can argue her ability is actually being able to tear down the stronges characters like they were nothing.
== FTK Facts==
Reimu is probably the biggest example of FTK's changes to existing Touhou canon, re-writing Reimu from a stalwart albeit airheaded defender to being depressed and existential. While she has yet to be spoken to, her face shows it all.
She currently appears in the KAF Complex in the last 'room' on the left side of the starting hallway, stuck with a slope and a boulder in what is an attempt to invoke a Sisyphean image. Her eponymous Hakurei Shrine appears to be abandoned, with only Koishi Hakureis (and their myriad of spinoffs) being the inhabitants.
It is also possible to spot Reimu in Ancient Koigypt as she can be found to the left side of the massive pyramid, again in an attempt at Sisyphean symbolism. Due to her distance, the harmful nature of the sand, and the fact there's no prompt to do so, it's still not possible to interact with her.
If the lore is to be taken at face-value, then both of the sightings are actually Reimu clones and are co-existing at the same time.
== History ==
Reimu basically said "fuck it" and ditched Gensokyo sometime after the Koishi crisis unfolded.Hakurei Shrine note 
Although her justification for leaving is personal, as she describes "me-problems", the note also takes mention of the Koishi crisis and may have regardless played a role in her judgement.
The Testament terminals in the Superion Levels are written from her perspective and shed light on the true motives for her disappearance; the Hakurei Shrine's god had passed somehow, and Reimu discovered it when her idols began to secrete blood. Needless to say, she had a severe mental breakdown (as SL-2's terminal seems to imply), though any further details are currently unknown.
==Trivia==
*According to Mare, the Koisherminal in FTK1 that claimed Reimu was deceased was lying.
**The lore dossier for Koishi Yakumei reveals that Reimu proper (as in the "true" or first Reimu) is dead, with the Reimu players meet being a clone or offshoot of the now-deceased real deal."In Gensokyo, it is a quiet yet widely understood fact that Reimu has been dead for at least 20-30 years, with the Reimu known nowadays as a clone or offshoot of the real deal." This therefore implies the Koisherminal was in fact stating a half-truth rather than being completely bullshittin'.
*Reimu's design used in FTK2 is based on her outfit in Unconnected Marketeers.
**It also appears to subscribe to the "brown-haired Reimu" design choice, as Reimu has been depicted with varying shades of hair color across the Touhou franchise. Ironically, the Unconnected Marketeers design depicts Reimu with black hair.
*The Roblox page description for FTK2 implies that she was knocked out of commission prior to the player's arrival, which is why she does jack shit when it comes to resolving what can be presumably defined as an incident.
*FTK's portrayal of Reimu as severely depressed is a headcanon Marecrisium has had for a while now.
