Languages

The languages found in Touhou Project. If the DM wishes, this list may be cut down to only Japanese and Youkai; most characters use Japanese, with one of the Youkai languages used as something more esoteric.

Japanese: The Common of this setting. Every character can speak this language.

Old Japanese: An older version of Japanese. It can be understood, with a little difficulty, by Japanese speakers. It's typically only used by older characters in order to show off their great age.

Youkai: A language shared among Youkai. Many different Youkai species have their own version. Think of it as Common, but for Youkai; most humans cannot understand it.

Oni: The language used by the powerful Oni, as well as more thuggish Youkai.

Tengu: The language used by the crafty Tengu. Codes written in Tengu are typically among the most difficult to crack.

Kappa: The language used by the innovative Kappa.

Tanuki: The language used by the mischievous Tanuki.

Kitsune: The language used by the cunning Kitsune.

Lunarian: The language used by the arrogant Lunarians.
