Cirno is an ice fairy. While she is described as a weak boss in the Touhou series, if we consider the power of average fairies—who appear a lot as in mid-stage areas as regular enemies—we can certainly say she is exceptionally strong for her kind. Her personality is childish, as you might expect from her appearance, and she is sometimes considered stupid.
During the events of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, she attacked the player, who was just passing by, out of instinctive aggression. She was helplessly shot down.
In Perfect Cherry Blossom, she returned to take revenge for her previous fight, but was only a mid-boss and easily defeated like one...
Her story in Phantasmagoria of Flower View will be added when the full version is released.]
Fun Facts
- Cirno is known for her childishness (read: stupidity), so the term "Cirno" is often used instead of "baka" as a pun in the Japanese Touhou community. Apparently, even ZUN himself wasn't an exception; in the manual for Phantasmagoria of Flower View, she is labelled as "9. Stupid" in an explanation of the game screen's layout...
- Cirno's favorite hobby is freezing a frog instantly, then watching them revive as they thaw in the water. She tends to fail one out of every 3 attempts, however, and the poor amphibian shatters to pieces.

Ice Fairy of the Lake Ability: Manipulation of cold
Her intellect is not very developed. She's just a child. To Reimu and Marisa, she's nothing more than a plain idiot. | |
Perfect Cherry Blossom - キャラ設定.txt
|
○氷の妖怪 | |
|
Youkai of the Ice Stage 1 midboss, a youkai of ice that likes cold places. She didn't have any specific reason for attacking Reimu and company, so she attacked them just for being there. Cirno radiates chilling air from herself, so the air around her is always cold. Even in spring. And Autumn as well. | |
