Other=The ship Murasa commands, the Palanquin Ship, can fly through the clouds. There is no way to get to the ocean from Gensokyo. It can also turn into a temple, which is the state it's in now. Murasa has begged to let her fly the ship again, but her requests have been refused. Murasa is able to cause water-related accidents, and carries an anchor she would throw to pull down ships.

Backstory=Long ago, Murasa drowned at sea. She came back as a spirit, seeking to sink other people's ships. Soon, she was widely feared among seafaring folk. One day, Murasa attempted to sink a Buddhist monk Byakuren Hijiri's boat. Despite Murasa's efforts, Byakuren would not drown. That day, Murasa agreed to join Byakuren in her holy mission.
