Scarlet Devil Mansion (Basement)


Being a destructive, unstable young vampire, Flandre Scarlet has been shunned by Gensokyo, and even her older sister, Remilia Scarlet. Remilia has had Flandre locked away, and Flandre, who respects her sister greatly, stays in the basement at the will of her sister.

Flandre is quite childish and playful, often inviting others to play games. She likes to get to know others and is not afraid the go up to others and talk to them, even invite them to play a game. This naive behavior most likely comes from the fact that Flandre never has contact with humans, save Sakuya. Even the outside world, for that matter. However, thanks to Flandre's unstable personality, she is quite peculiar, making it hard for others to understand her, and this makes it hard for Flandre to make friends.

Flandre is not as cruel as others say she is. However, you must be careful when interacting with her, as it is not that hard to set her off. Though, it is usually encouraged to flee when you spot her, she is quite friendly when not set off. When she is set off and snaps, her unstable side shines through. She quickly destroys anything in her path when she snaps. She is a fair amount of obedient, though, and will stop most of the time when instructed to do so by Remilia. Destruction is just a game for Flandre, anyways.


She's kind of nuts and isn't usually allowed out of the mansion, but she usually doesn't try to let herself out.

She really respects her older sister Remilia, but her raw destructive power far exceeds that of her sister's. Although she is usually docile, her insanity makes it difficult for others to understand her.

When vampires attack humans, they generally try to take their prey alive so that they can suck its blood afterward, but Flandre has always been fed with cooked dishes, so she doesn't know how to properly attack a human. Whenever she tries to attack a human, she can't control herself and blows them away without leaving a spot of blood.

Perhaps she can't tell that her daily meals are made from living humans.

Her meals look like such harmless foodstuffs as cake and tea, after all...




Apearance: Has red eyes and short blonde hair, which is tied into a single ponytail on her left side. Wears a red skirt and vest, with a pink shirt underneath. Also wears a pink mob cap with a red ribbon attached. Her wings appear to be made of iron and prism shards. She carries a matching metal wand with her, which is apparently the mythical Lævateinn. Arranged from her back to the tip of her wings her 8 crystals are presented as follows: Light Blue, Blue, Purple, Pink, Orange, Yellow, Green and Light Blue again. Has longer hair than Remilia





Flandre Scarlet is the younger sister of Remilia and the "dirty little secret" of Scarlet Devil Mansion. Because of her unstable personality and incredible destructive power she lives in the basement of the mansion. She's immune to Holy things and has an incredibly physical strength; her sister has ordered her not to leave the mansion for nearly 500 years. She knows little about the world outside and, until the heroines arrived during the Extra Stage of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, she has had no substantive contact with any humans other than Sakuya.

Song: Pupils moist with deep vermilion, my skirt wavering in this same sweet color.
Upon these childish cheeks may the red drip, as my legs collapse from the throbbing.
Controlled by these sweet hallucinations, I play a tune that blooms from my five fingers.
The sound of a crimson red tea as I tease and gouge them deep into the neck.

"Will my thoughts not reach you?"
"Who will be reflected in your eyes?"

"Is my heart broken?"
"If he comes, will I not return?"
"Are deeply cut wounds unhealable?"
"So then, what about the stabs of time?"

All of you, I want it, I want it so much I'm shaking.
(Realize my feelings, why won't you see them?)
Shall I stop piercing exhaustively into your delicious pulse?
(I'm overflowing with insanity, how can I stop?)
I dirty your skin, but the one that's defiled is me.
(If I crush my feelings, what would I strive for then?)
Lovingly I stroke it, send it shivering... kill my urges!
(My love is overflowing, I can't stop it...)

Upon your white skin it shines...
a scarlet moon, a beautiful night.
when it shines, it stains you.

This tone of screams coming from your shriveling throat, the melody becomes a rainbow of vermillion.
This hue from slaughtering you, what a sweet deep color it releases!

This tone of screams coming from your shriveling throat, when the red rains down painting my lips.
I ascend this beautiful stage, and there I dance alone.

"Has that wish collapsed?"
"Have those thoughts been suppressed?"

"Has that hope been severed?"
"Have those pupils been set aflame?"
"Has that skin been defiled?"
"So then, has this place become empty?"

Inside of me, inside of me, inside of me...
One, there's one word to describe it...

Endlessly endlessly endlessly...
endlessly... my love, it repeats...

It repeats, it repeats, it repeats, it repeats
It repeats, it repeats, it repeats... the screaming...


I've caught it; the left arm is sweet... I'm going insane; the right arm is sweet...
sweet... sweet... I scream with a smile.

It's happening again... it's so enjoyable... so enjoyable...
Finally my wish... it's so enjoyable... so enjoyable...

I'm shaking, I'm shaking
it's so good... it's so good!!

Red... Red... Red... Red... Red...
Sweet... Sweet... Sweet... Sweet... Sweet...
Sweet... Sweet... Sweet... Sweet... Sweet...

I just think it is so...

Red...Red... Red... Red... Red...
Sweet... Sweet... Sweet... Sweet...
Red... Red... Red... Red... Red...

Ah~!

So sweet, so sweet! So red, so red!!
I'll break(kill?) you!

This life, I'll pull and rip it apart - the red and silver will burst out and disperse!
(The true me is no longer anywhere...)
This life, I'll scatter it like flower petals - the rich color blooming forth for me to drink.
(What transient life, so beautiful and precious...)
This life, if it's yours - I'll exhaustively feast upon the blood and flesh.
(There is nothing for you to do but become mine forever and ever...)
These four limbs I offer up as a sacrifice - become a corpse at my feet!
(For no longer can you live by my side forever and ever...)

This life, I'll pull and rip it apart - the red and silver will burst out and disperse!
(I want to stay like this, in my beautiful world...)
This life, I'll scatter it like flower petals - the rich color blooming forth for me to drink.
(The memories dance, let me make you mine...)
This life, if it's yours - I'll exhaustively feast upon the blood and flesh.
(I'm sorry, but this is a final act of love...)
These four limbs I offer up as a sacrifice - become a corpse at my feet!
(because I want to live with you forever...)



another song:




Apples and honey.
The jam in the tea is apricot.
I threw the silver
Teaspoon against the wall.









Hurry up, let's play.
Dolls never say anything.
They just try to sing
The one song they know.









The little bluebird
Escapes from its basket,
Gets beaten in the rain and
Gets its wings torn cleanly off.







Come on, I'll sing with you.
Teach me a new song.
Nobody answers me.
Nobody sings to me.









I'll give you a piece
Of sweet, melting chocolate.
Wasn't it delicious?
Come, let's sing again.








Apples and honey.
If I mix their red and gold,
Will it turn black,
The same color as the sky?








Hurry up, let's play.
The dolls still say nothing today.
I'll sprinkle some honey
On that red dress.






I'll shut you up alone again
In a castle built of toy blocks.
Come on, I want you to sing.
Let me hear you sing.









Here is some new tea,
This time with orange marmalade.
I threw the silver teaspoon
Against the wall.

another song: I wanna play with you once
Are you a fragile baby?
If so, I throw you away after use

I don't know why I'm alone now
Why don't you play with me? Hey!
You can never refuse my asking

Everything has the spot to be broken away
I only know where it's hidden away
C'mon baby! C'mon baby!
Come into my hand
Oh, it's so easy to grip & break down !!

*1
Let's get along, baby, I'm never insane
You must enjoy to play

Hey! How are you feeling?
It's funny, isn't it?
Never to be seen, the game!

Let's get along, baby, beautiful fireworks
You can never run away
because we're the friends
So, don't mind to be dead,
play the funny game, yeah!
Grip & break down! fireworks tonight

All the friends I found ever
have gone far away from me
They have gone to the place not to be back
You are the brand new my friend
Won't you go far away so
Hey! How do you response to my asking

Everything has the spot to be broken away
I only know where it's hidden away
C'mon baby! C'mon baby!
Come into my hand
Oh, it's so easy to grip & break down !!

■Flandre claimed to be resting in the basement during the time before the events of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil.
■The name Flandre is a modern French term for Flanders, a region which makes out the Northern part of Belgium. They speak a dialect of dutch; Flemish. In Dutch you say it like 'Vlaanderen'.
■A silhouette of Flandre occupies the front of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil's jewel case.
■The Lævateinn that Flandre is holding in her older Sprite is very different from the Lævateinn that she's holding in her new Sprite. (See on right).Notice the Lævateinn's differences
Added by Camilo113

■Flandre's Second Spell Card (Taboo "Lävatein" or Lævateinn) shares its name with the sword (wand in some versions) of Loki, a Norse god known for causing mischief. This sword/wand is used by the fire giant Surt in Ragnarok (the Norse equivalent of the Apocalypse) to burn down the whole world, except for one safe haven. Fitting that Flandre would be wielding a tool of such destructive might.
■Her boss theme ("U.N. Owen was her?") and her second-to-last spell card ("Secret Barrage - And Then There Will Be None?") are references to Agatha Christie's novel And Then There Were None (also published as Ten Little Indians). U.N. Owen (which the characters of the novel naturally deduced to mean "Unknown" and also recognized as referring to Mr. Owen's wife) was actually seen in person in that thriller but was only revealed at the end.
■Flandre was born in 1507 A.D., according to Gensokyo's timeline, and holds the distinction of being one of the few characters whose birth year is known, along with her sister and Toyosatomimi no Miko.
■In Perfect Memento in Strict Sense is stated that when Flandre destroy the "eye" of something or someone, she actually erases the existence of the thing or person.
■While it is a matter of course, she has the destructive power of oni and the nimbleness of tengu, as well as a vampire's bodily and regenerative ability. One theory is that she somehow exceeds even her older sister Remilia Scarlet.
■Flandre's wings have an unusual appearance which bear almost no resemblance to a vampire's typical bat-like wings (or even organic matter). It has been speculated that her wings are artificial and that she fashioned them herself and then Flandre's silhouette
Added by Camilo113
attached them to her body. She may have lost her original wings or been born without them. ■Strangely, if one uses a bomb against her in Embodiment of Scarlet Devil's Extra, she's shown to have normal wings in bat form.

■In Chapter 9 of Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth, Reisen Udongein Inaba and Tewi Inaba get lost in the Scarlet Devil Mansion and end up being chased by what looks to be the silhouette of Flandre.
■As the younger sister, she is commonly called 「妹様」 or "imouto-sama" by fans.
■A common meme regarding Flandre is 「フランちゃんうふふ」 ("flan-chan ufufu") since many people attribute the slightly sinister laugh "ufufu" to Flandre, as well as the fact that her name is commonly affectionately abbreviated 「フランちゃん」 ("Flan-chan").
■In some fanworks, the crystals on her wings are sometimes shown to be storage for Magical Power.
■In many fanworks, Flandre is shown with one of two different personalities, or possibly a bipolar one. One is a personality based on her appearance, been very childish, and the other is a super sadistic and violent mass-murder-like personality, based on her possibly accumulated hate of the years trapped in the mansion.
■Her boss theme ("U.N.Owen was her?"), has become popular on various video websites because of videos such as this and this and has been the first contact with Touhou for thousands of internet users.
■Flandre has been depicted in some fan-art alongside Koishi. This could stem from the fact that they both possess destructive powers greater than those of their sisters, and that they (Satori and Remilia) both own mansions. Remilia the Scarlet Devil Mansion and Satori the Earth Spirit Palace. Not only that, but Flandre and Koishi have spent most of their lives in their sisters' mansions.
Aya reports on the strange explosion of a meteorite above Gensokyo. She learns that Flandre destroying the meteorite
Added by Camilo113
Flandre was the one who destroyed it, but becomes increasingly confused as Flandre explains she destroyed it by "going 'kyuu'" while holding the eye of the meteorite in her hand. Even more perplexing information is given by Flandre's older sister, Remilia. Apparently, it was planned that the meteorite was supposed to be aimed at the Scarlet Devil Mansion, and that Flandre would destroy it. Inexplicably, Aya ends the article with a report that spring has begun.
In her follow-up, Aya interviews Flandre about the explosion and Remilia's information. Flandre gives the same explanation for how she destroyed the meteorite, and, when questioned, says that her sister just acts like she knows what's happening. Remilia interrupts (for which Aya is thankful), and confirms that what Flandre said was true, insinuating that Aya just can't understand, while giving strange information about the meteorite's source.

■Flandre is one of the two vampires at the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
■Her apparent age is about the same as Remilia Scarlet (who looks to be around 10, even though Remilia is 5 years older and they're both about 500 years old).
■She apparently rarely, if ever, attends the parties at the mansion.
■Normally she's locked up in the mansion, but it seems she might actually be a shut-in who stays there willingly.
■Everyone who enters the mansion hopes they don't run into her, even Marisa.
■Because she is rarely seen by visitors, there are many mysteries about her.
■Her seven-colored wings are unlike those of any other creature and most likely can't be used for flying.
■Even without wings she can fly though, as can many other people.
■Flandre can destroy anything she wants by moving the "eye" of the object, where the tension is highest, into her hand and pouring her power into it.
■When she clenches her fist whatever she has moved the "eye" of into her hand will be destroyed.
■Other than her ability itself, no simple information about it is known.
■She also has extreme physical strength.
■Unsurprisingly, all the toys she plays with get broken

Threat level: Extremely High

Human friendship level: Very Low

Flandre generally does not leave the Scarlet Devil Mansion(*1), but her existence has been occasionally confirmed by humans that enter it.
She has unusual seven-colored wings, and her hair is a dazzling golden color, but her build and apparent age are similar to that of her older sister, Remilia.
The two wings on her back are of an irregular shape unlike those of any living creature, youkai, or ghost
She has few friends even among the youkai of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, and spends most of her time in isolation.
Even her big sister Remilia is seldom seen together with her.
Perhaps as a result, much about her is shrouded in mystery.
She possesses the ability to destroy any and all things even with or without touching them.
Everything that is made for her to play with ends up broken, so she probably doesn't have many playmates.
Her method of destroying things so effortlessly involves pouring her power into the "eyes" of any material where its tension is the highest.
She can use her ability to cause these "eyes" to move into the palm of her hand.
In other words, by crushing the "eye" held within her hand(*2), she causes things to break
It's a truly frightening ability with no real weaknesses
Since it's unlikely anyone will ever see or meet her, there isn't really anything one can do to prepare, but all you need to remember is that there are two vampires that live in the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
Even if her older sister Remilia is away, you should remember that there's another vampire inside the mansion, and not sneak in unprepared.
There are many mysteries to her abilities, and such simple things as the operating distance of her ability and how to defeat her are unknown.
The one thing that can be said is that it is an extremely dangerous ability.
On top of that, she also possesses the usual superhuman strength attributed to vampires, so it would surely be impossible to put up a fight against her
1: Perhaps she's locked away, but it's also rumored she's a shut-in.
2: When she clenches her fist, the subject of her attention breaks.
