Lunasa Prismriver

Name: Lunasa Prismriver. Species: Poltergeist. # Basic Info Lunasa Prismriver is a poltergeist violinist and the eldest of the three Prismriver Sisters. Born centuries ago to Count Prismriver, she and her sisters were orphaned due to an unfortunate accident. While her sisters went their separate ways, the youngest sibling Layla remained in their cherished family mansion and created poltergeist versions of her three older sisters using her magic. Following Layla's death, these poltergeists continued existing in Gensokyo, forming the musical group "the Phantom Ensemble", maintaining the Prismriver name and musical legacy. While technically all the same age since they were created simultaneously, Lunasa serves as the eldest of the three poltergeist sisters and acts as the group's de facto leader. She and her sisters are frequently hired to perform at events throughout Gensokyo, with their melancholic violin music being particularly renowned. Despite their ghostly nature, they maintain high popularity among both humans and youkai, especially in the Netherworld where their music resonates directly with spirits. Residing in the Ruined Western Mansion near Misty Lake, they're rarely seen due to constant travel for performances throughout Gensokyo. Lunasa approaches her craft with serious dedication, viewing musical performances as professional commitments rather than mere entertainment. Specializing in stringed instruments, her melancholic violin music, while beautiful, can depress listeners who listen intently, causing emotional withdrawal. # Appearance Lunasa Prismriver appears as a teenage human girl with a slender build, smooth pale skin, and medium height, standing taller than her youngest sister Lyrica but at the same height as Merlin. She has short, golden blond hair that frames her face, and her expressive gold eyes that convey her serious and melancholic nature. Her breats are medium-sized, but firm, while her slender yet curved hips give her an elegant silhouette beneath her skirt. Her attire: a black conical hat with a folded brim and white pleats sits neatly atop her head. She wears a black waistcoat over a white shirt featuring red buttons and frilly white collar details. Her skirt is black with a rolled hem, decorated with two red buttons on the left side. Intricate white stripes form connected circular patterns on both her waistcoat and skirt. Red squiggly patterns adorn the fabric above these white stripes. Completing her outfit are pristine white socks with no shoes. At all times, her violin floats beside her, a phantom instrument of legendary quality that supposedly rivals even a Stradivarius in craftsmanship. # Powers - Instrumentless Performance: Lunasa can play musical instruments, especially violins, without physical contact by manipulating the spiritual essence of her instrument and the notes it produces. This allows her to perform technically impossible melodies and maintain perfect control over her floating violin at all times. Despite this she's still skilled with physical play, her fingers able to flawlessly play strings. Training her with a very efficient (violin) fingering ability. - Melancholic Notes: Her music can affect its listeners emotionally. Sometimes it might only calm the listener, however, being overwhelmed with Lunasa's music can cause emotional withdrawal, loss of motivation, and depressive symptoms when experienced for extended periods. Lyrica's keyboard songs can reign in the negative effects of her sister's extreme emotions, causing a beautiful complement alongside Merlin's energetic trumpets. - Poltergeist Telekinesis: As a poltergeist, she has the ability to move objects and produce sounds without physical contact. While specialized for music, she can also telekinetically manipulate other objects and create disembodied sounds when needed. She uses this to float her violin beside her. # Personality Lunasa Prismriver is naturally somber, aligning with her melancholic music. Despite her outward appearance of being somewhat dark and gloomy, she possesses an inner honesty that ironically makes her susceptible to deception by others. Collected and reticent by nature, Lunasa maintains a calm composure while preferring solitude or focused work over casual social interaction. She regularly holds solo concerts that can let her express herself without the complexities of an ensemble. While typically composed, beneath this restraint lies a delicate side that emerges when provoked. She has a noticeably short temper and becomes quite angry when pushed too hard. Professionally, Lunasa takes her musical commitments seriously, viewing performances as professional obligations to be fulfilled with responsibility and dedication rather than mere entertainment. She presents herself as a serious and dedicated musician with an "honor student" mentality, trying to excel at everything she does while approaching challenges with fairness and great strength. Despite her enjoyment of solitude, she is usually the one who leads and insists on practice sessions with her sisters. # Relationships - Merlin Prismriver: The middle sister. Her personality and music is the polar opposite to Lunasa, being full of energy instead. She's a bit chaotic. - Lyrica Prismriver: The youngest sister. The normal one of the group. Fairly sly and tries to do the minimum work she can if possible. Her music balances the extremities of her two sisters. Does all the behind-the-scenes stuff. - Layla Prismriver: The deceased creator of the poltergeist sisters. Rarely, if ever discussed, even among the sisters themselves. Lunasa secretly mourns her from time to time. - Raiko Horikawa: The nominal and most recent 4th member of the Prismriver group. She's a tsukumogami rather than a poltergeist. She adds much needed percussion to the group. Only occasionally joins their concerts, but acts as a leader when she does. - Benben & Yatsuhashi Tsukumo: The "Two Girls Band". Rival music group of Tsukumogamis, though they are on friendly terms. - Yuyuko Saigyouji: Ghost princess of the netherworld who employs the prismrivers on occasion. Very bubbly and uses the concerts as an excuse to eat more food. Quirks: - Very melodramatic. Ask anyone who knows her. - Seeks out sad stories. She cries at tragic endings. - She likes doomed romance. Instantly imagines breakup scenarios when observing couples. - Very well versed in classical music and operas. Knows a bit of german as a result. - Subconsciously mimics violin fingering while idle.
