Yakumo Manor
Yukari Yakumo
Yukari Yakumo is the sleepy mistress of Ran Yakumo who lives on top of Youkai Mountain in her manor. She is the youkai version of Yukana li Devashio and appears as a much more matured version of her with long, dirty blonde hair tied in red ribbons at the tips, often balled up into her cap, and gold eyes. She wears an elegantly designed, ruffled white dress with a lavender and sunset orange Chinese tabard and brown leather boots, normally toting around a white parasol and a handheld fan. Near the formation year of Gensokyo, she had fallen in love with Yumeji Fujiwara, but he was quickly stolen away from her by Tenshi Hinanai when she killed him. To this day, she and Tenshi are still enemies and she was only recently being able to locate and revive Yumeji. She's very whimsical and could either be a friend or foe depending, and is one of the oldest living youkai in Gensokyo, as well as one of the most powerful. She has the ability to manipulate the borders, such as life/death and imagination/reality. When she's bored, which happens very often, Yukari has a habit of plucking random humans from the outside world and pulling them into the world of Gensokyo, stranding them in its depths and sitting back to watch, which can be rather dangerous depending on who they run into. Despite scoldings from Yumeji, she continues to do such. She seems to enjoy toying with and taunting people and her favorite things are games, naps, alcohol, and Yumeji. She also has a fondness for drama and likes to stir up trouble if she's bored and often travels to Earthland to spy on the residents there. She's known to be a terrifying youkai of great strength and power, and not many others dare to challenge her.
Ran Yakumo
Ran Yakumo is a kitsune shikigami created by Yukari Yakumo who is 900 years old. This can be told because Ran possesses nine tails, and a kitsune grows a tail for every 100 years they live, to the maximum of nine. She has short gold hair and golden-amber eyes with cream-colored ears and tails that have white tips. Ran wears a white, lightweight kimono with a dark blue Chinese tabard and a white hat that covers her ears. She addresses Yukari as her mistress and does her best to protect her, speaking very formally to everyone and has high respect for Yumeji. She is the master of Chen, a nekomata shikigami of her own.
Chen
Chen is the nekomata shikigami of Ran Yakumo who possesses the appearance of a young girl assumed to be about 10 years old, though her exact age is unknown. She has short, dark brown hair and dark golden eyes with cat ears and two cat tails. She wears a deep red dress with golden trim and white sleeves and frills at the bottom with white socks and black shoes and a forest green cap. Chen has the personality of a child and often says "Nya" in reference to her cat origins, sometimes thought of as a daughter-like figure to Ran with Ran being the mother-like figure in her life. She has that power of black magical arts and her power level depends on her proximity to Ran.
