Nazrin is a skilled dowser and the leader of a great number of mice. She was asked by someone (apparently Ichirin) to look after something (the flying treasures). Getting a treasure response, she descends from the flying (treasure) ship, encounters the heroine and is either provoked or forced to fight her.
Fun Facts
- The bent rods she holds, which have the cardinal compass directions molded at their ends, work as a metal detector.
- She is one of the few Touhou characters in the Windows series to not have a last name. (Others include Cirno and Kisume.)
- As she is a Mouse Youkai, fans believe she will be chased after by Chen and/or Orin.
- Like Reisen and Tewi, she is a leader of her species.
- The gem that she has on her chest is a pendulum used for dowsing (like Lyserg one's in Shaman King).
- Nazrin is an Azerbaijani name meaning "wild rose"; however, ZUN may also have intended it to be a pun on 鼠 (nezumi), meaning "mouse". Some fans, knowingly or not, misspell her name as Nezrin or Nezumin.
- Some fans compare the prisms of her last spell card with Ramiel from Neon Genesis Evangelion.
- 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 is also the only Touhou Windows series level 1 boss who attacks the heroines out of necessity rather than aggression (like Rumia or Letty) or irritation (like Yamame or Minoriko).
- She was featured on the cover of Undefined Fantastic Object demo CD.

Stage 1 boss The Little Dowser General Nazrin Race: mouse youkai A natural-born dowser. They say she controls a great number of field mice to find what she's looking for. However, if it's food, the mice will eat it all up before they can get it to her. She is cunning and will flee from a fight as soon as she sees an enemy stronger than herself. It seems she was ordered to look for something by somebody, but what could it be... | |
