Akasha Bloodriver

Akasha Bloodriver is the mother of Moka Akashiya, and the step-mother of Kokoa Shuzen, Akua Shuzen and Kahlua Shuzen. Akasha is a very beautiful fair-skinned young woman with long pink hair that she ties in a black ribbon and green eyes. Akasha looks a lot like Outer Moka as they both have the same traits; the same skin color, pink hair color and green eye color. Akasha is sometimes depicted with red eyes instead of green. She wears a large Victorian-styled gown that is black, along with heeled platforms. Under her dress is a battle uniform which consists of a revealing corset, black shorts and garters. Akasha appears to have a similar personality to both Outer Moka and Inner Moka. Akasha is shown to be kind and gentle towards other people and cares greatly for them; even her husband's other lovers, which is similar to how Outer Moka would react. But when fighting, Akasha becomes more like Inner Moka as she has the same fighting style just like her daughter. According to Touhou Fuhai, Akasha's tender-hearted nature could also be a drawback. As he stated in the flashback of Moka's past, Akasha's nature inhibited her battle prowess. Her given name goes before her family name, unlike Moka Akashiya and the rest of the Shuzen family. Although not a biological or blood-related Shuzen member, Akasha does serve a lot of purpose to the storylines in the manga chapters and volumes of Season II. Touhou Fuhai describes Akasha as a strong, but sad woman who carries a heavy burden. She is also mainly a stepmother to the Shuzen Family.
