Letty Whiterock
Letty Whiterock ist ein saisonaler Youkai, weshalb sie nur im Winter gesehen wird. Bei ihrem Kampf gegen den Protagonisten in Perfect Cherry Blossom gibt sie sich nicht wirklich mühe, ihre wahre Stärke wird nie gezeigt. Sie benimmt sich kühl und distanziert gegenüber den meisten Menschen, die sie trifft. Wegen ihrer Fähigkeit, Frost zu kontrollieren, ist sie bei den Menschen sehr gefürchtet.

General Information
Letty first appeared as the first stage boss of Perfect Cherry Blossom. In Perfect Memento in Strict Sense, it was written that she was a type of yuki-onna. According to ZUN, if she was to show her full power compared to her strength shown in Perfect Cherry Blossom, it would cause an incident.[1]
Ability
- Manipulating of cold
She possesses an ability to manipulate chilliness. It's not an ability to create blizzards or make snow fall, but rather an ability to strengthen the "winter" that exists in the natural world. According to Perfect Memento in Strict Sense, since this is equivalent to an ability that manipulates the winter within nature, she possesses tremendous power according to the environment, but she is pretty much powerless outside of winter. In Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red, Letty herself said that outside of winter, she hides away in a place where not a ray of sunlight can reach. In Forbidden Scrollery, she is shown spreading snow over Gensokyo.
By lowering the temperature, humans become less capable of activity, and lose their fighting spirit. Furthermore, since it's not a physical attack, it's impossible to completely avoid it, and it's not possible to take up any countermeasure except doing something to the extent of wearing thick clothing.
