Yuyami (a Touhou LW original) refers to the time between the sun setting and the moon rising. This is an apt temperament for Rumia, a youkai capable of manipulating darkness. Rumia is endowed with Water Phase, the element of darkness, and Moon Essence, representing the night.
The flexible and patient Water Phase resists Metal Phase, because metal collects water, but it is weak to Earth Phase, because earth directs water.
The cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence resists the alluring and arrogant Sun Essence, but it is weak to the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence.
The Spread Shot of Rumia from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). In this attack, a veil of darkness descends upon her enemies. Youkai own the night, but there are some who are most active around twilight. Even if someone's outline can be seen at this time, they cannot be identified. Over time, the Japanese phrase for ''Who goes there?'' morphed into the word ''tasogare,'' meaning twilight. Youkai that transform into humans, youkai that abduct humans―twilight is the time of those who stand atop the border between youkai and humans.

The Focus Shot of Rumia from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). She attacks from below with a burst of light. The contrast formed by intertwining darkness and light appears as both heavenly and unnerving.

[Flash]Break's target's Barrier with Barrier Status: Blind.
A Spell Card of Rumia from the world shrouded in scarlet mist. She attacks with moonlight laser beams. Moonlight is said to contain magical power. This could mean the moon is the source of all magical power, similar to the way the sun nurtures all life. It's thought that moonlight is nothing more than reflected sunlight, but if moonlight contains magical power where sunlight does not, then surely there's someone interfering.

[Absorb]Recovers HP (40% of max HP) when attack hits target.
A Spell Card of Rumia from the world shrouded in scarlet mist. This attack divides the world into darkness and light. Light is the absence of darkness, and darkness is the absence of light... is a common misconception. In the boundary between light and darkness, infinite shades of gray exist. Furthermore, while perfect darkness (a total lack of light) can exist, perfect light (a total lack of darkness) is difficult to achieve. That's because filling a space completely with light is nearly impossible. At least a little darkness persists no matter where you are. It's, therefore, difficult to define the boundary between light and darkness when you stand in the light.

The Last Word of Rumia from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). She envelops her enemies in scarlet darkness. A pure-scarlet mist has enshrouded this Gensokyo. The days are dark, and the nights darker still. Rumia has found her paradise―with little to no effort, the world is constantly dark. By adding her darkness to the scarlet mist, a blackish-red shade spreads forth. It's the color of rust, the color of chestnuts from foreign lands... and the color of spilled blood gone stale.

Character Ability
Capable of manipulating darkness
Expand
The ability of Rumia from the world shrouded in scarlet mist (a Touhou LW original). It is essentially the same as our version of Rumia's ability. As a result of this ability, a veil of night surrounds Rumia.
The Scarlet Mist Incident should not have taken long to resolve, but in this world, it persists, much to the benefit of Rumia. With all of Gensokyo shrouded in mist, the days are no longer bright, reducing the amount of magical power Rumia needs to use to spread darkness. If she had her way, perhaps this Rumia would want a world entirely encapsulated by darkness.
The red ribbon she wears is an ofuda, and she can't remove it herself, even if she might want to. Could it be sealing off some power of hers...? Manipulating darkness is a powerful ability and surely holds many a great secret. However, Rumia is laid back and seems to have no intention of using her ability to its full potential, which is perhaps a rather typical attitude for one of Gensokyo's youkai.
During the Vampire Incident, many youkai were said to have joined with the vampires. Rumia couldn't have been one of them... could she?
Immune to Barrier Status: Blind. When attacked with Blind, recovers 5% of own HP.
When using Boost, party's CRIT ATK 1 level UP (1 turn).
When using Graze, own CRIT Accuracy 1 level UP (1 turn).
All targets' CRIT Evasion2 level(s) DOWN (3 turns).
Party's Yin DEF2 level(s) UP (2 turns).
Info
The ''world's darkest paint'' is making a splash in the outside world, but it doesn't compare to Rumia's darkness.

Rumia (Scarlet) was released on January 6, 2023 in "Festival Prayer: Youkai of the Scarlet Twilight." For more up-to-date analysis, be sure to visit the Official Discord Server.
Joining the ranks of youkai who have benefitted from the prolonged Scarlet Mist incident is everyone’s favourite T-Posing Friend with an appetite for human flesh. Rumia’s darkness now comes tinged with a spot of blood magic, manifesting in a Destruction-Class Friend who focuses on spreading her Blindness to her foes with an extra serving of Crit debuffs, allowing her allies to feast well upon the remains of her enemies.

Story Card Recommendations
(Card recommendations last updated on July 12, 2023)
Keep Rumia well fed with Spirit P using cards like The Witch of Scarlet Dreams. If you’re looking to boost her output, cards like Overwhelming Firepower can help her setup for a big finish, while Puppeteer and Necromancer can help her boost immediate output by up to 50%, especially on Spell Card 2.
With Rumia’s Last Word straddling both Moon and Star elements, your best bet is to boost her Liquid damage. Beach Sanshoku Geidontei, Resort Stars and Frozen-Over Gensokyo are the best cards for this.
Character Skill Level Up Recommendations
Start off with Skill 1, Evernight to immediately help her achieve her dreams of easily breaking Blind barriers on the enemy team. Skill 2, Dark Element comes next, giving her the Spirit P she needs to hit those breaks on Turn 1. Leave Skill 3, Black Veil for last to help mop up with enemy Crit debuffs.
Character Strengths
Lots of CRIT debuffs
A6 Rumia’s kit is dedicated towards ensuring enemy teams are constantly subjected to CRIT DEF and CRIT Evasion debuffs through various means, helping other Friends take advantage of CRIT damage of their own.
Powerful Blind Anomaly Setting and Breaking
Skill 1 and Spell Card 2 inflict 2 layers of Blind on all enemies, leaving foes ripe for Blind Breaks. A6 Rumia achieves this via Focus Shot, Spell Card 2 and Last Word, all at 3P.
Consistent Moon and Star Elements
A6 Rumia is more than capable of connecting her Moon and Star bullets onto her enemies, moreso Moon. While Star still appears a little bit, such as through Spell Card 2, Moon breaks are common in A6 Rumia’s kit, especially demonstrated with her Spell Card 1 having 6 lines of it!
Character Weaknesses
Struggles with Both Selfish and Team Buffs
When it comes to what A6 Rumia can provide for herself, unfortunately there isn’t a lot she can bring naturally. Limited to just team CRIT ATK for the team when Boosting, CRIT Accuracy for herself when Grazing, Yang DEF buffs for the team via Skill 3 and little bits of Accuracy in various Spell Card bullet lines. Ultimately, she will need lots of support with Yin ATK and even some Accuracy, as her only source of Yin ATK is from her Last Word Pre-ATK.
Won’t Capitalize on Killers too Often
Sadly, A6 Rumia won’t always be able to take advantage of her CRIT DEF debuffs she dishes out to her enemies, and this is as a result of her Killers not quite landing on all her enemies. While Human, Fairy and Moon Killers aren’t the worst, they aren’t going to hit as many enemies as Youkai or Gensokyo, and having the extremely niche Killers like Light and Human Village don’t quite help with that, but any humans A6 Rumia is up against that are also weak to Moon will be greatly susceptible to the dusk youkai’s devouring power
