Toyosatomimi no Miko is a character in the Touhou Project series introduced in its 13th installment, Ten Desires.
Miko was once Prince Shoutoku, a Japanese leader in the 600s known for promoting Buddhism and streamlining the Japanese government. In the Touhou lore, she was visited by Taoist hermit Seiga Kaku, who had heard about Mikoβs longing for immortality. Seiga introduced her to Taoism, but she rejected it as a religion unfit for placating an entire country. She was intrigued by its promise of immortality, however, and privately converted to it, advocating for Buddhism to keep Japan stable. After drinking an βimmortality elixirβ (mercury sulfide), however, she was forced to let go of her body and become a supernatural hermit like Seiga, notably taking on the form of a woman, making her a canonically trans character (
).
After convincing a hermit from a rival clan (Mononobe no Futo) to sleep without decaying, Miko followed in suit, waiting for a time where a Taoist Japan would revive her in search of guidance. However, Buddhist monks were able to keep her mausoleum sealed, and the legends surrounding her were slowly brushed off- which led to her transportation into Gensokyo, where the folklore of old is a reality of everyday life.
When she awoke in Gensokyo, it was right after Buddhist monk Byakuren Hijiri opened her own temple, however, leading to a surge of divine spirits across the realm, setting up the events of Ten Desires.
What look like headphones on her are canonically earmuffs- Shoutoku was allegedly able to discern between ten questions asked at once, an ability carried by Miko (although with her enhanced abilities, she can also analyze each person and determine their inner desires (thus the title of the game))- although it means her hearing is highly sensitive and has to be muffled to prevent pain.

sorry cissies if someone states their pronouns and you still use they/them you're doing a bad
Even if their pronouns are they/them??
In this case she/her solely
Had a nurse do this in my last HRT appointment while taking blood. I said arenβt my pronouns in my file and she said she doesnβt check the file and just uses they/them until corrected.
I'll correct her all right..
I point out the pronouns are there when someone does it. I had to do that on bear site and I expect better from comrades.
Personally I am relaxed in regards to myself but for others I will point out someones bullshit especially if they double down with some mealy mouth shit.
A year in, still find it hard and exhausting to stand up and correct pronouns often enough, even with friendly folk.
Oh I have that switch in my head where I'm fully placid until I see or hear that shit and then I will pull you for it. I have that attack dog vibe
beware of attack goblin
I strive to unleash my full goblin powers
Can I ask a question about the null/void pronouns?
Are they null/void as in they are null and void, unbound and nonexistent? Or is it literally that the subject form is null and the object form is void? Or is it something else entirely that ive failed to understand? My assumption had been that you were nonpronomial, but the way you phrased your third sentence has me questioning (and probably overthinking) that.pronoun explanation
I'm fairly relaxed and agender, null or void can be used but it is also a play on null & void that's a little bit of my humour too. I don't really have any pronouns I'm satisfied with, if it's easier to refer to me by name that's also an option, makes the most grammatical sense. I have the void there because I feel emptiness where I should feel a pronoun I guess so void has meaning. Hence me dragging my void around c:::: spoiler spoiler Ty for the explanation! ^^
I appreciate this, but also fuck grammatical sense, as long as meaning is conveyed grammar can die.
I dont have this around pronouns but around other stuff and idk seeing someone embrace it is really
maybe someday ill get to that point with my stuff.
spoiler
Well it's left to who wants to address me, I'm relaxed on myself so like there's a few ways that all mean the same to me, and you're welcome c:I have it around how I feel gender itself too like where others feel something I don't feel anything really hence no euphoria, the pronouns are just the things I have to look at and the void is a part of me. It took me a long time to figure this out lol I spent more time trying to understand why I felt nothing and empty where others would be happy and feel closer to their gender or identity
spoilet
Im so glad you figured out of this around yourselfI dont feel this on gender but do on identity, like Ive got a gender i just dont have an identity a lot of the time yk?
spoilererer
Yeah it just took a load of years lolYeah I understand ^^
