Apparently, she is quite simple-minded, and doesn't like the sunlight nor the summer heat; in fact, she uses her powers of darkness to surround herself in a mass of dark, as to avoid the heat and the light. It is also said that she only uses this power as a supportive ability when attacking others, using pure strength as her main asset. She seems like to fly around aimlessly during the day and the night, sometimes bumping into trees since she is less capable of seeing obstacles through her veil of darkness.<ref name="baijr">[[Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red/Rumia|Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red: Rumia Article and Interview]]</ref><ref name="pmiss">[[Perfect Memento in Strict Sense/Rumia|Perfect Memento in Strict Sense: Rumia Article]]</ref> Despite her innocent appearance, she eats [[human]]s and thinks that a [[youkai]]'s job is to hunt them down, but she also seems to be quite lazy and has commented that it is generally a pain for her doing it.<ref name="baijr"/>

Rumia has the ability of manipulating darkness. By covering herself in pure darkness, she is able to prevent sunlight from passing through the darkness, as it is magical in nature and can render traditional lights such as torches useless within it. Because of this, people who happen to go inside the darkness would not able to see anything, but it looks like even Rumia also cannot see, as she might crash into trees while flying. The appearance of the darkness outside its region looks like a spherical circle that is moving. Rumia says "I'm fine in moonlight" meaning she doesn't need such ability at night, and it also appears that she doesn't use it all year-round, as she was seen without darkness in broad daylight during New Year's eve.<ref>''[[Oriental Sacred Place]]'' - Chapter 12</ref><br />

Should also be noted that while her field of vision ''is'' reduced by her own ability, she is used to it enough to be able to read [[Aya Shameimaru|Aya's]] newspaper even with almost no light, while Aya herself couldn't write notes nor reading her notebook. At that time, she has also shown that she can control ''how much'' light can pass through the darkness, as she let only a bit of it entering to be able to read the newspaper. <br />

The names of her spell cards are also related to night and darkness (''Moon Sign'', ''Night Sign'', ''Darkness Sign'').

ZUN has mentioned in an interview<ref>"The Chief Priest ZUN talks about Mountain of Faith!" Chara☆Mel Vol.3, Ichijinsha, Dec 2007, pp.104-111.</ref> that because it was the first Windows game, he set one of the concepts of ''Embodiment of Scarlet Devil'' as a {{nihongo||[[wikipedia:ja:落ち#出落ち|出落ち]]|deochi|lit. "[[wikipedia:Punch line|punch line]] on the entrance"}}, such as bringing Western youkai as bosses, even though the title is named ''Touhou'' ("Eastern"). Her ability "manipulation of darkness" is one of that instance. It sounds like if it was that of a final boss, yet she is only a stage 1 boss.

There is no evidence of her ability in the game, but in truth, places around her are always as dark as night.
