Now Viewing: yagokoro_eirinTag type: Character 八意永琳 The "Brain of the Moon". Secondary final boss of Touhou's Imperishable_Night. Lunarian pharmaceutical genius responsible for creating the Hourai Elixir that gave her good friend Houraisan_Kaguya - and later Kaguya's bitter nemesis, Fujiwara_no_Mokou - immortality. She has since been Kaguya's bodyguard and caretaker in their mansion, Eientei. She is also the mentor of Kaguya's pet lunar rabbit, Reisen_Udongein_Inaba, and by extension Reisen's charge, earth-born rabbit youkai Inaba_Tewi. Owing to her expertise, she became Gensoukyou's chief pharmacist. Due to her estimated age (well over 1000 years-old and possibly one of the original Lunarians) and her relatively mature demeanor (compared to her charge), she is often included in the "Old Maids Alliance" with Yakumo_Yukari and Yasaka_Kanako. Most famous for the fans' rallying cry "Eirin! Eirin! Tasukete Eirin!", which, in fact, originated from Houraisan Kaguya. Her ha typically has the red_cross symbol. At the bottom of her dress are trigrams. She is frequently depicted with constellations sewn into her dress. Her surname invokes the name of the Shinto god of intellect and wisdom, Yagokoro-no-Omoikane. This, combined with ZUN's comment about her being in "the higher order of gods", gave rise to rumors that she may in fact be Omoikane.
