Characters
Fairy Wars introduces no new characters, but three characters from the Touhou official manga Eastern and Little Nature Deity and Strange and Bright Nature Deity make their game debuts as stage bosses. Cirno is the main character, seeking those who trashed her dwelling and left an unsigned declaration of war. Sunny Milk is a cheerful fairy who manipulates the power of the Sun to control reflection and make things appear invisible; she considers herself the smartest of the three but often fails. Luna Child uses her Moon-derived power to silence sounds around her and seems the most cruel of the three. Star Sapphire, whose power does not wax and wane with the time of day, appears to be the smartest and often escapes punishment while the other two are caught. Marisa Kirisame, a magician finishing her flower viewing, was suddenly challenged to a duel.
