The Hakurei Shrine exists to watch over the Great Boundary which ensures Gensokyo's existence, and the shrine maidens of Hakurei resolve major incidents for a living (*1). |

Compared to previous generations of shrine maidens, she is quite lacking in a sense of danger and spends very little time training, yet her power is considerable. |

Perhaps as a result of that personality trait, strong youkai tend to like her, while weak youkai get angry at her easily. |

Nothing is holding her up. |

In addition, she has the powers of the Hakurei shrine maidens. |

Gensokyo relies on the Hakurei Shrine and its shrine maidens to continue to exist as it does today. |

As a result, no youkai oppose them. |

As it would be dangerous for any youkai to defeat the Hakurei shrine maiden, many youkai felt that their existences had become meaningless; |

Thus, the Spell Card Rules were introduced. |

Although the shrine maiden of Hakurei was initially the only one who resolved incidents, when one happens these days, there are many imitators who go out to resolve incident as well. |

Since the Hakurei Shrine stands on the boundary of Gensokyo from the outside world, one can go to the shrine from either world. |

Originally, attacking humans was the point of the youkai existence, but since the erection of the Great Barrier it's become troublesome for them to do so, and they've had to find sources of food outside their normal choices; consequently, the collective willpower of the youkai began to drop. |

The result of this were the spell card rules, which allowed duelists to (seemingly) stake their lives in individual combat (*4). |

4: It appears various other rules were also considered, but as the beauty and volume of danmaku especially appealed to youkai and women, they aren't as popular. |
