Remilia is the owner and head of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, the mistress of Sakuya and Meiling, and the older sister/guardian of Flandre. Though her appearance (and often behavior) is childlike and seems unthreatening, she has fearsome magical powers and a reputation to match, being known throughout Gensokyo as the dangerous "Scarlet Devil." Like all vampires she is photosensitive and weakens when exposed to sunlight, so she typically remains inside her mansion (which has few windows to prevent light getting in) during the day and emerges during the night. While she is naturally known to drink human blood, her light appetite means her victims almost never die from their wounds.
In Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, Remilia decided to release a mist over Gensokyo to blot out the sun and let her move freely during the day; after her scheme was discovered and halted, she was forced to use a parasol to shade herself if she wished to move around during daylight hours (as seen in Immaterial and Missing Power). In Imperishable Night she insisted on accompanying Sakuya as the journey would take place at night and place no limitation on her. While her behavior is usually self-centered and somewhat bratty, it is possible to befriend her; however, humans and youkai alike prefer to avoid her. Her name, appearance, house, and clothing all indicate she is European in origin and emigrated to Japan many years ago. She claims to be a descendant of the world's most notorious vampire, Count Vlad Tepes Dracula, but this is a bald-faced lie.
Fun Facts
- Because of the prelude theme to the final boss stage of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, titled "The Young Descendant of Tepes", she has been sometimes linked to Count Dracula's lineage. This is because Dracula's full name is Vlad Tepes Dracula. However, ZUN denied that she is related to the Dracula family, although in character, Remilia herself asserts that she is a descendant of Tepes.
- The name of her theme song, "Septette for a Dead Princess", is based on Pavane pour une infante défunte (Pavane for a Dead Princess) by Maurice Ravel
- Like most vampires Remilia has the power of shapeshifting at her disposal and can change into a bat. However, unlike most vampires, her wings remain visible even when in human form, making it impossible to completely pass herself off as a human.
- Remilia is not only Sakuya's master but the one who gave Sakuya her name (according to Perfect Memento). Considering Sakuya's murky past and the unlikelihood of a human becoming a vampire's servant, the leading theory is that Sakuya was once a vampire hunter, and Remilia earned Sakuya's servitude by besting her in combat.

○永遠に紅い幼き月 | |
Eternally Young Scarlet Moon Ability: Manipulation of Fate The final boss. She's been the mistress for about 500 years. She doesn't clarify this herself during the game, but she is a vampire. She blanketed Gensokyo with a magic mist in order to prevent sunlight from reaching her. Although she has been alive for 500 years, her personality is that of a selfish child. She is respected by most youkai, but her charisma doesn't stem from her personality; rather, it comes from the fear that they have for her kind. She has one younger sister; nothing else is known about her family. She is a light eater. In other words, she can drink only a little blood at a time and must leave the rest behind, so the humans off of whom she feeds become a bit anemic, but usually stay alive. Due to that fact, she is never able to increase the number of her kind. She swears that she is a descendant of Tepes, but nobody is certain whether she is truly related to the Vlad "Dracula" Tepes. |

The Scarlet Devil, Remilia Scarlet A vampire who resides in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. She can manipulate fate. She has apparently lived for over 500 years. Considering how long she has lived, she acts rather childishly. Creatures of her kind forfeit their growth and maturity in exchange for eternal life. In other words, she can live forever because she never grows up. It goes without saying that she is weak against sunlight, can't cross flowing water, hates garlic, and despises sardine heads. Crosses have no effect on her. It puzzles her to hear that her kind are supposed to be weak against such a thing. She uses bats and arrows as her weapons. She can spawn an unlimited number of bats from herself.

Imperishable Night - キャラ設定.txt
○紅い悪魔 | |
Scarlet Devil Species: Vampire In the middle of a lake in Gensokyo, there is a scarlet mansion. She is very childish even though she has been alive for more than 500 years. Devils, including vampires, are hated with a passion by both humans and youkai, because their kind tend to be self-centered and selfish. Remilia indeed is no exception. Type-B blood tastes the most delicious to her. |
