My first ever drawing of Lily. My how it changes

[lilystargazerwhite]

Oc Lore drop:

chiharuo, being he is the god of spring and the avatar of a tree (an Irish oak specifically, he used to be a spirggan), he is the one that sealed away Saigyou Ayakashi (yuyukos tree) from blooming and luring people. During the spring incident, it was him instead that was left unable to awaken while it absorbed spring.

Saigyou and Chiharuo are both old ass trees, but Saigyou is native to gensokyo while chiharuo came from ireland. Saigyou is also a yokai while Chiharuo is a fae (specifically Aos Sí greater fairy)

Basically Chiharuo is an invasive species who overpowered Saigyou many years ago and now takes his place as the spring tree.

Pink lady is avatar of Saigyou and little green is Chiharuo

I’ve mentioned him so many times but here he finally is lol!

Name: Chiharuo Yoritomo (頼朝 千春お, real name Prìomhadail) his Japanese name, while meaning “Thousand years of spring” can also be a homophonic sound to “父” or father, playing on his role as a father of spring.

Species: currently Aos sí (irish oak turned spriggan then ascended to Greater winged fairy Aos sí)

Ability: to control growth (成長を制御する程度の能力)

Age: between 45,000-5,000 years old. This mf was chilling with cave men. Physical form is around 60.

Chiharuo is the god of spring, childhood and fertility, residing in a long forgotten and overgrown shrine deep in nameless hill. He’s spent his years in gensokyo attempting to rescue children left there, but is not always successful. He’s a sweet old man, having his own sort of orphanage at the shrine. Most of his children are fae, but rarely he will taken in a human or yokai child.

Did I make Lily a whole family cause I love her so much? Yes, and here’s her dad. I like to think she gets so excited for spring because it means he will come out of hibernation.

Chiharuo’s born race I guess you could say would he that of a Cro-magon (early European, dating around 50,000+ years ago), which are no longer around obviously. If he had a default true form, it would look like a caveman made out of wood.

His current incarnation form is a male Asian, but in the past have ranged in race and gender. Here are some alt looks for him

His wings are based on the Lunar moth. They are often under his kimono.

His eyes are always closed.

Excerpt from my fae document (that tumblr won’t let me fucking paste:

Theme: 優しい春の父~ first utterance (gentle spring father) this one isn’t entirely done yet but this is what I have.

He has a list of spell cards I’m overjoyed to share

Chiharuo spell cards:

Curious case, mr.button (reverse growth, makes things smaller or younger or whatever) name: the curious case of Benjamin button

A hundred seconds till midnight ( growth, makes things bigger or older) name: the doomsday clock

And the tree was happy ( grows a giant tree that has bullets as petals which fall quickly before it reverts back into a seed ) name: the giving tree

The maiden and the selkie ( summons fae to fight for him for a bit, mainly lesser winged fairies) name: from Heather dale love herrr

The much talked of Metamorphosis ( takes moth form, which the eyes on his wings stare intensely refracting light through them) name: a fucking rob zombie song.

Appalachian fiction dreaming ( causes cell overgrowth, like a cancer. Can be very pretty but deadly of course, heavily based on the growth from the movie Annihilation ) name: Appalachian mountains and 2 things I’ve heard people say before .

Flowers never bend with the rainfall (opens his eyes ) name: Simon and Garfunkel

Anyway that’s him. He’s my beloved. I have many other drawings of him so here’s that

Just playing with a funny idea of my samurai and gensokyos samurai having a kid, which in turn would make Afro youmu real lol.

Thinking of a name I came with 魂朝刀山 (read Kontomo Tatayama) it would litterally mean something along the lines of ghost morning sword mountain. Last name is just the first kanji of Konpaku and the Last of Yoritomo. Tatayama comes from the whole sword thing and Jabalis name meaning mountain or cliff in Swahili. I also like how Tatayama sounds cause it sounds like Tatiana

In no way canon to my story of touhou of course, just an idea I found really fun to play with.

Thank god I can't code. Anyway. Ocs.
