What is Touhou? Click here!
The Touhou Project (東方Project) is a series of 2D (with 3D background) vertically-scrolling danmaku shooting games made by Team Shanghai Alice, with three fighting game spinoffs co-produced with Tasogare Frontier. They are similar to regular shooting games, but focus more on weaving through complex patterns containing anywhere from dozens to hundreds of bullets. Every game in the Touhou series is set in the fantasy land of Gensokyo, and the series is known for its huge cast of characters, well-developed storylines, and related materials such as music CDs, fan-made comics and animated videos made to the music. (Description by Touhou Wiki)
Touhou's reaches are far and vast, finding homes in every game and community. Knowing this, you can always take comfort in knowing you are never alone. Whatever type of follower you are to our beloved series, we here at Scarlet Gensokyo welcome you. Spiral Knights has become our latest adventure and we'd love to have you along for the ride. You needn't have 1cc'ed TH06 on Lunatic, memorized all of the one-hundred plus characters, or be able to recite all the score Zun ever wrote, but here, we'll be glad you tried. :)

Simple russian student. From Touhou series I prefer fightings, though even more I like playing OSU!'s beatmaps, based on Zun's tracks remixes.
Currently enjoying: MuvLuv, Alice Madness Returns, Ar Tonelico 2, Anki.
Concerning battlestyle, my favorite are berserk sword attacks. I dislike guns and bombs, but use them when it's necessary. Honestly, I suck at JK, I failed it ~10 times and, well, ready to fail some more ==/.

"I fear nothing, even if it's INVINCIBLE!...unless it's gravity"
This young college student is working on a path to becoming an IT Technician. He's modest when he speaks yet prideful when he strides. He places loyalty as a high standard, so if you earned his trust, he wont backstab you so easily. He has played alot of teamwork based games so he knows a thing or two about working together. He's played strategy games, role-playing games, fighting games, card games and first-person shooters so he's experiences a palette of game genres.
A war broke out between two good friends, a war to find the most epic videos on youtube. After a while, that friend brought up videos of Touhou. That war never really ended, but after a while Delta became curious about Touhou, and that's how it all began. He found out about the wide variety of character and the many incidents that occured in Gensokyo. He also learned he's a terrible grazer, but a good dodger. He prefers fan-based work because people can get really creative and there are a multitude of works that fascinates him. That wont stop him from playing official games.
His introduction to Spiral Knights was pretty simple. Hailing from Team Fortress 2, he heard that Saxton Hale was giving Spiral Sallets to any mercenary to travel from the Team Fortress 2 universe to the Spiral Knights dimension. Accepting this challenge, Delta traveled to obtain the hat. However, he learned that Spiral Knights is a great game, featuring swords and guns, which are both his favorite kinds of weapons. After finally getting to the first terminal he realized that such a great game should not be passed by.
His fighting style revolves around "Absolute Power". You'll see him rush the front lines blades in hand.His fighting style changed after he finished his beloved Leviathan Blade. He plays relatively risky with swords to ensure monsters regret standing up to him. If he's using a gun, chances are he's playing it very safe to ensure he keeps his health unless it's a gun pup shooting at him. Delta also uses a bomb, which changes his style from recklessly damaging or being a safe reviver to a combination of both, where he does damage and tries to stay safe. He's the first one into the battle, first to die, and last to give up. Growing up on being a support character, he plays team doctor and revives his fallen comrades as soon as he can. He is much more careful when he's low on health, and is willing to use his body as a shield if necessary. If you need an extra hand, gun, handgun, bomb, shield, or a pick-me-up after a tough arena, you can rely on DeltaWings."Lets beat up the bad guys until the problem is solved!!"-Marisa
I'm a university students, studying Psychology since 2009th. Cheerful, optimistic, outgoing.. Often lead those who fear. People see me as optimist.. but actually I'm a PlusRealist. My birth day is October 9th. Year 1989.
I'm quite a gamer, if I can say so myself. I'm more into FPS games though.. especially team-based ones. Battlefield series is one of my favorites =3 (MEEEDIIIICC). Also on good terms with visual novels and fighing games.. Strategy games, cool. RPG's.. not all of them. Racing games - not my choise. Casual games.. lots of fun xD
Touhou knowledge? Never played the origial, but i know a lot and play many doujin games of it.. Touhou music 4 life xD Also i have tons of fanart. As for favorite characters of Touhou mines are the following... Sakuya, Meiling, Marisa, Alice, Reimu, Yuuka, Reisen, Ushuho, Patchouli, Suwako, Komachi, Tenshi, Suika... well i guess its enough)
My Spiral Knight play style. I'm a ok gunner. I'm a good swordsman.
What what I'm all about is survival. If the odds of the Internets are not against me, you would find me helping the injured to get back on their feet to carry on with the fighting, while tearing things on my way to reach the bodies. or simply fail trying xD"My personal color isn't 'Pink'! It's magenta!"
Emyria is always called a "she", mainly because people think Emyrias Personal color is pink and they think the name sounds female. Though Emyria always pretends to be a 21 year old finnish guy who lives in Helsinki and likes to cut down trees. He/She has played all the Touhou games, including the pc-98 era. Also some Seihou games. She/he doesn't like people who call for attention. Or peole who are just plain stupid. He/she always complains about the energy price, saying "Why can't it be cheaper?!" all the time, no matter how low or high the price is. Her/His mood often changes, but most of the time Emyria is in a good mood. If not, she/he tries not to be insulting at all, but sometimes it may seems she/he is. "I don't do smileys often, especially retarded ones like ":D, ;)" or such. But don't think I am being mean with that!" Emyrias native language is German, but she/he also learns finnish, and of course english! So she/he might greet you with "Hallo" sometimes. (Hello in german). That's also why her/his english might be retarded or wrong, or even both sometimes!
"I always play with Sodaki, which is always called "Sodeki" by me, because THAT'S actually the name Sodaki has. He just typo-ed his name or something when he started playing Spiral knights. I am a pure gunner, which means I only use guns in battle and I also don't own any swords or bombs. My main weapon is a "Blitz Needle" with an UV. My armor consists of the Shadowsun Set. Which means I got handgun damage medium. I am not very helpful in battles with many enemies, but I always try my best. You can always ask me for help, but not for energy or crowns, since I don't spend real money for anything in the game. That's why I am poor most of the time."
Favourite Touhou character: Alice Most hated character: Cirno Names in other communities: Shinchiru, Kibiki, Lyn, Miku0Hatsune... Visit my deviantart profile? http://miku0hatsune.deviantart.com/
Okay, that was all. Not that anybody would read that. Let's cut down trees sometimes together.The first time I ever played a Touhou game was in 2002. EoSD was my first introduction to bullet hell, and I was always amazed and confused as to why and how so many bullets could be on screen at once. I was hooked at day one. I played all the games, listened to all the music, explored fanworks and enjoyed the many, many remixes. It was all great, to be sure. But, primarily, it was through Touhou that I found out about the Shoot 'em up genre, and for that reason it's always had a special place in my heart. These days I've moved on to Cave's works, but I'll forever and always be a Touhou fan.
I'm a bomber, through and through. But when I'm feeling less confident or off my game (or my ISP's acting up), I pick up a sword and have at it. I like bombs a lot. Even though they've been nerfed to hell since the preview beta, I like making the most of what's given, which is still pretty good. You'll often see me charging directly into enemy lines. This is normal. Taking huge risks is a small part of how I fight.
Here's my userpage.One of the (comparatively) older guild members at 23, Sacre's a microbiology major at UC San Diego and a bit screwed up. Still, she means well and tends to use her resources to help others, and tries to be nice. She is more of Touhou fandom than of the games due to sucking at bullet hells, but hey, cool music and they are pretty. Also likes corgis and puns, and has cosplayed as a (short) Yukari before. She also has a talent for pinning Vana... with her corpse.
Combat-wise, I'm a bit reckless and usually end up being the first one dead. To make up for it, I tend to revive people first and am willing to use my own energy to cover everyone else's tush. I also have a headset if desired. More importantly, while I like arena runs, I do not appreciate it when people invite me out of the blue to a run when I haven't verbalized any interest at the moment.An 18 year old Graduate with a qeustionable wittiness in Ocean City, Maryland, Aya has played every Touhou game in the series, but plays other leet games as well(I'm a gamer for crying out loud.). My favorite stuff of Touhou is the music, so you can Figure I'm a music freak.
As for Battle-style, I specialize in Guns. I am a Wild Gunslinger who likes to shoot rapidly from afar. But don't think I'm hopeless when it comes to getting close and personal. i've got plenty of swords with me. only downside is i have never gotten a decent bomb, so I'm not used to them yet. all my energy goes into crafting, so very rarely do i use it for revives unless I'm alone or we all died(lol).As a mysterious and mostly calm person of whom not much personal information is known, he has joined the guild by invitation of his friend. The first Touhou game ever played was the EoSD demo which got him interested in it. Trying to continue with Touhou bullet hell games, he just always failed or was too lazy to play them and ended up giving up on them but started with the fighting game Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, moving onto the game Hisoutensoku as his most beloved game. As he mained the rarely played Komachi because of her beauty, unlikely style and love for scythes, he was the best known european Komachi player. Realizing that his limit has been reached, he decided to stop playing and left the world of Touhou games. Still though, does he listen to the hundreds of thousands of Touhou songs and has even though he never played all of them, quite the knowledge of Touhou and it's characters. His favorite Touhou characters in following order are Nue, Youmu, Parsee, Komachi and Kaguya because of her NEETness. He likes to draw and has his gallery at www.sodeki.deviantart.com but his best skills unleash when he handles a computer. He's always up for trying out new MMORPGs, especially fantasy ones. In most MMOs he would play a thief or assassin class as he likes swift strikes and hit and run attacks.
Trying to achieve his goal in Spiral Knights without ever buying CE, he slowly progresses deeper and deeper into the secrets of Spiral Knights. Starting out with only using swords, he slowly learns to handle bombs as they are effective for crowd control. He will often leave trollish remarks to situations but never means them seriously. He isn't a Lunatic SK player yet but tries his hardest in battle.
Not being able to handle guns or bombs efficiently yet, he should be chosen when it comes to widespace close combat. His weaknesses are Constructs and gun puppies. He is also hopeless when he is surrounded by enemies while under shock status. But his absolute weakness are ROCKETS. Rockets are his absolute enemies in every game existing, forever being haunted by them.At 21 years old, you'd think this recent addition to the guild would have more important things to do with his time than kick ass and take names at an online MMO, but that's just what he's here for. A jokester at heart, he's just about finished with his Film/Video/Media Studies degree at WMU, along with THREE minors in Japanese, Journalism, and Psychology. As if that wasn't enough, he also does professional voiceover as a hobby turned career. Wowzers!
Of course, such a hothead has a fiery battle temper to match. You can find him favoring a good number of the high-end swords, but lately he also has been quite privvy to status bombs as well thanks to a few lucky CTR UVs. You'll generally find him tossing out the boombooms when there's large crowds of enemies or wide open spaces (or even narrow ones), but switching to that trusty sword when it comes time to pick off the remaining few. He also LOVES Death Arenas, so don't expect to sneak by them if he's in the party and one appears. Perhaps his affinity for bombs came from the introduction of Blast Network?...
Oh, yeah, he rocks at that too. Ask anyone else in the mansion; just don't end up on the receiving end if you go against him.Utsuho-Reiuji is a active gamer, and plays at least one video/online game a day. He's intrested in Japan and it's culture, and is a big Touhou fan. He's not the best, but atleast he can play on Normal Mode. Despite being highly competitive, he likes playing MMO's, like Spiral Knights.
He favors using strong swords and rapid-fire handguns. After getting a Leviathan Blade, a Triglav, a Valiance, and a Plague Needle, he plans to use bombs more often, the one's with huge explosions. Why? Because since he's a Utsuho fan, he has to bomb the heck out of enimies. While crafting items in a Alchemy Machine, he'll eventually get UV's on his cherished items. He enjoys fighting bosses, and enjoys fighting in arenas. When he spots an injured member of the party, he'll try to get a chance to revive them.A regular Californian person that has played all of the games (excludes PC-98 though)in the series. I do look/watch/listen to certain fan-made content, but if you suggest one to me, please keep it slightly appropiate.
As for me In-Game, I typically use swords, and use guns as a last resort. I use bombs not so often though, and I also try to conserve energy/resources as best as possible. To find me, that's easy, I'm the one that spins around alot. (Like Hina of course.)
