Appearance: Mizuchi has blue eyes and hair, which is pulled up into a long ponytail decorated with an ornament resembling tiny skulls. Over a black underdress, she wears a buttoned white top and skirt which are striped in red, and wears her sidelocks in tubes with a similar pattern. She wields a pair of handcuffs with one end being attached to her neck, with the ends being gold colored and the chains fading into white. She also wears a pair of white gloves, as well as manacles, and her legs cut off at the knee into a flame-like white trail.When she was alive, she wore a shrine maiden’s outfit of a white kosode and red hakama. Her hair tubes were also red with white stripes, instead of the other way around. She also carried a smoking pipe.

Nitori has blue hair tied into twintails and blue eyes in Mountain of Faith. She wears a blue dress with lots of pockets around the hem of the skirt and her upper arm, and a dark aquamarine backpack with a golden key on the strap in front of her. She also wears a green hat with a white wispy symbol on it, blue wellington boots and carries a cattail. As an engineer she carries a lot of tools with her in the pockets.

Aya has red eyes and short black hair. She wears a white blouse, black short skirt, and a tokin. She also wears Tengu geta on her feet in many depictions. From Phantasmagoria of Flower View to Scarlet Weather Rhapsody and in Hidden Star in Four Seasons, she can be seen holding a hauchiwa fan. In Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red, Phantasmagoria of Flower View, and Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, Aya is shown holding a notebook and being accompanied by a crow. In some depictions, starting in Mountain of Faith, strips of her shirt and skirt show a leafy motif in autumnal colors.

In her first appearance in Mountain of Faith she wears a blue and white outfit similar to a shrine maiden's, with the blue areas covered in light blue polka dots and stripes. She has long light green hair, and yellow eyes (green in every subsequent game appearance, except in Touhou Hisoutensoku portraits where they're blue). She keeps a blue snake wrapped around her hair on one side. In Mountain of Faith, Subterranean Animism [2], her sprites in Touhou Hisoutensoku, and her appearances in the alternate ending in Unconnected Marketeers and Marisa's Shintoism Wind ending in Fossilized Wonders, she wears a blue headband with a frog's head on it; however, in all other appearances, she instead wears a hair clip shaped like a frog's head. She carries a gohei with straight paper decorations as opposed to the typical gohei.

Kanako has an elaborate red shirt with long white sleeves and a round mirror over the center of her chest. She wears a long black skirt with a red flower print hem. Has poofy intense blue hair and dark red eyes. Behind her is a large twisting rope circle shimenawa with shide.

Suwako wears a short simple purplish-blue dress with a frog print design based on a panel from the first Chōjū-giga scroll, as well as large white sleeves stitched onto the torso, and a white collar. She has medium length blond hair, grey eyes, a light brown wide-brimmed hat with two frog eyes on the top, white kneehighs and black shoes. Originally unofficial, Suwako has been shown to wear Zettai Ryouiki in Touhou Hisoutensoku and Hopeless Masquerade.

Based on her small sprite in Mountain of Faith, Double Spoiler and Impossible Spell Card, and her illustration in Strange Creators of Outer World, it can be seen that she wears a white, long-sleeved shirt, and a large black skirt with red flame-like designs reaching up from the bottom of the skirt, and that it has a white layer below her skirt. She has short light silver hair and wears a red tokin. She holds a large scimitar-like sword and a white, round shield with a red maple leaf print on it.

She appears in several print works depicted with detached sleeves and wolf ears. However, she is also depicted without wolf ears by Aya Azuma in Wild and Horned Hermit, and her articles in Symposium of Post-mysticism and Alternative Facts in Eastern Utopia. In her fortune slip from Whispered Oracle of Hakurei Shrine, she has floppy dog ears instead.

• The mountain in Gensokyo is the original form of Yatsugatake, before it was destroyed by Konohana-Sakuyahime.
• Konohana-Sakuyahime destroyed Yatsugatake out of jealousy that it was greater than her Mount Fuji.
• Iwanagahime moved to the remaining Yatsugatake and continues to reside there, producing its smoke.
• The current smoke rising from the mountain is attributed to its factories rather than volcanic activity.
• The Moriya Shrine and Wind God's Lake were brought from the Outside World before Mountain of Faith events.
• These additions caused initial disturbance among the mountain's inhabitants but are now accepted residents.
• The oni formerly ruled the mountain with tengu and kappa as subordinates before leaving due to Gensokyo's uneventfulness after Great Hakurei Barrier creation.
• Tengu and kappa took charge following oni departure, building upon their legacy with advanced technology and governance structures like Moriya Shrine.
