| | |
| ''Symposium of Post-mysticism'' also mentions that if one is firm and holds their ground while negotiating with her, they can get her to search for lost objects for them - while on the other hand, asking humbly and politely is likely only to inflate her ego.

| ;Finding sought-for items
| |
| As stated, Nazrin's ability is being able to find specific objects that are being looked for by someone. In order to effectively utilize the ability, she must have a clear, concrete image of what she is looking for. She presumably uses a pair of [[wikipedia:Dowsing rod|dowsing rods]] to aid her in this effort, which she uses to find gold and treasure, and also is able to order the mice under her command to assist her. The mouse and the [[wikipedia:Dowsing rod|dowsing rods]], freely using a pendulum, perform dowsing. It seems like the rod and the pendulum are utilised in battle, and are used as a shield and as a tool for firing [[danmaku]]. Furthermore, each end of the dowsing rods appears to have a letter. The left one has N (north) and W (west), while the right one has S (south) and E (east). Nazrin owns a pair of [[wikipedia:Dowsing rod|dowsing rods]], which she uses to find gold and treasure. She employs the rods in ''[[Undefined Fantastic Object]]'' to search for the lost pagoda of [[Bishamonten]], as well as the fragments of the Tobikura.
| |
|
| |
| The origin of this is probably due to a legend where a trial was ordered for [[wikipedia:Ōkuninushi|Ookuninushi]] to marry Suserihime. There, a mouse came back with an arrow that Ookuninushi was searching for. However, for the method to be due to dowsing is not quite accurate, and the standard of searching at that time is unclear. Furthermore, as the ability itself is always ancillary, in the end, she searches at her feet. It also seems like for the sought-for food items, they are devoured by the mice before the food can come to hand.

| Nazrin acts as [[Shou Toramaru]]'s faithful helper, but is also the leader of a great deal of ordinary mice. In ''Symposium of Post-mysticism'', she is referred to as Shou's mouse familiar, but in reality she is a high-ranking youkai dispatched by Bishamonten. Because of this, she does not generally reside at the [[Myouren Temple]], and will not visit unless Shou calls upon her.
| |
|
| |
| She currently resides in a small self-built hut in [[Muenzuka]], because of the treasure that floats in from the outside world.

| |
| ===Name=== | | ===Name=== |
| Her only known name is {{nihongo|''Nazrin''|ナズーリン}}, which could be a reference to {{nihongo||鼠|nezumi}}, the Japanese word for "mouse". Her name could also be derived from [[wikipedia:Nasrin (name)|the Persian name ''Nasrin'']] ({{lang|fa|نسرین}}) with the meaning "wild rose", a widely used name in the Islamic world; various different spellings include ''Nasrin'', ''Nazrin'' and ''Nesrin''. There's also "Nasulin" ({{lang|ru|Насулин}}), a real Russian surname, and it's also the name of a nasal insulin. In the data files for ''[[Hopeless Masquerade]]'', her name was romanised as "nazu-rin".

| [[ZUN]] states in an interview that it made sense to have a mouse be the envoy of the Vaisravana; in the Chinese zodiac, the mouse represents north, as does Vaisravana.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otIrJdoaITI|title=Interview with Chara☆Mel|accesdate=9 March 2011|author=Chara☆Mel|language=Japanese}}</ref>

| Nazrin has gray hair and red eyes. She wears a brownish-black one-piece with pink sleeves and a gray capelet. She also wears a necklace with a crystal pendant. Carries dowsing rods with the letters for the cardinal directions on the ends. She also carries a mouse in a basket by her tail. When she appears as the Stage 5 midboss, she is carrying the jeweled pagoda of [[Bishamonten]].

| |
| She was asked by [[Shou Toramaru]] to look for the lost pagoda of [[Bishamonten]]. On Stage 1 of ''Undefined Fantastic Object'', Nazrin descends from the flying ship after getting a treasure reading. Either by being provoked to or forced to, she attacks the player. After she loses the battle, she manages to flee the scene. Later she does find what she was looking for - the treasured pagoda, the other key to releasing [[Byakuren Hijiri]] - in a second-hand goods store (conceivably [[Kourindou]]).
| |
|
| |
| Later, in the middle of Stage 5, she encounters the player once more. Seeing that her allies have brought the player with the treasure, she decides to test out the pagoda against her in the meantime. She loses once more, and escapes to return the pagoda to her master, Shou.

| In ''[[Double Spoiler]]'', Nazrin appeared as a [[stage]] 7 target, where she demonstrates her dowsing abilities to [[Aya Shameimaru]] and [[Hatate Himekaidou]] at their request to dig up a few old coins. Of course, she's actually using them as weapons in the [[spell card]]. She follows up on this by digging up some gold, fully demonstrating her dowsing abilities.

| Nazrin, while being a mouse youkai leader herself, is also Shou Toramaru's only known underling. She went to search for the lost pagoda on Shou's command, further showing her loyalty by keeping it a secret from [[Minamitsu Murasa]] - she states in [[Undefined Fantastic Object/Story/Marisa B's Scenario|Marisa B's story]] that Shou was probably too embarrassed to admit having lost it in the first place. It is stated in ''Symposium of Post-mysticism'' that she only really comes to the temple when Shou calls her, and otherwise lives in a little house she built near Muenzuka for the purposes of finding treasure there.

| [[File:NazrinMitsubishi.png|thumb|Comparing Nazrin's diamonds to the [[Wikipedia:Mitsubishi|Mitsubishi]] logo.]]
| |
| *According to the game transcript (namely Reimu-A and Marisa-B), Nazrin is the only [[stage]] 1 [[boss]] in a [[Windows]] game to escape rather than actually be defeated by the heroine. She would also be one of two only stage 1 bosses to not been defeated; the other being [[Yuyuko Saigyouji]].
| |
| *She is one of the few stage 1 bosses that actually have something to do with the plot, as opposed to "a pointless encounter with a pointless person", as [[Marisa Kirisame]] puts it. Another one is [[Seiran]] in ''[[Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom]]'', who is involved in the lunarian invasion of Gensokyo.
| |
| *She is also the only [[Windows]]-era stage 1 boss who attacks the heroines out of necessity rather than aggression (like [[Rumia]] or [[Letty Whiterock]]), or irritation (like [[Yamame Kurodani]] or [[Minoriko Aki]]).
| |
| *She was featured on the cover of ''[[Undefined Fantastic Object]]'' demo CD.
| |
| *Her Hard-Lunatic mid-boss spell card looks almost exactly like [[Sara]]'s last attack pattern. (Also with Rumia, coincidence?)
| |
| *The pendulums of her last spell resemble diamonds, and when they come together around Nazrin, they form [[Wikipedia:Mitsubishi|Mitsubishi]]'s logo which, interestingly, means "three diamonds". However, this could be consisted to be a coincidence.
