White: Pawn: Shanghai Dolls (cannon fodder) Knight: Momiji Inubashiri (an agile tengu which means she is able to jump over people) Bishop: Lily White (both the bishop and Lily White wear pointy hats) Rook: Tenshi Hinanawi (heavenly peaches has made her body incredibly strong and tough and she's also an earthbender) Queen: Yukari Yakumo (the queen is the powerhouse of chess and Yukari is the powerhouse of Gensokyo) King: Unzan (must be male) Black: Pawn: Fairy Maids (also cannon fodder) Knight: Aya Shameimaru (another agile tengu) Bishop: Lily Black (same reason for Lily White just a color swap) Rook: Hong Meiling (guardian of the SDM so when you castle, Meiling is guarding the king) Queen: Shinki (god, ruler and creator of the demonic realm of Makai. she makes a great black queen) King: Hisoutensoku (looks male so good enough) Any suggestions? |

I think your insistence on the King being male makes the whole set-up extremely bizarre and honestly not worth considering. At the very least Miko would make a great King. Also, why the heck is Momiji on a different side from Aya? The more I look at this, the less sense it makes. D- See me after class. |

Pawn - Extending Aaaaaaaarm Rook - Hairclip Kappa Knight - Glasses Kappa Bishop - Bob-hair Kappa Queen - Nitori King - Manzairaku Seriously speaking, though, I have a hard time picturing any Touhou characters as the King aka someone important who must be protected at all costs. |

Remilia, Kanako, Byakuren, etc. Although I suppose the most fitting example would be Kaguya with Eirin as Queen. Edit: Team Lunarian Pawn - Moon bunnies Rook - Reisen Knight - Yorihime Bishop - Toyohime Queen - Eirin King - Kaguya |

Metaphorically speaking, I've always thought of the king as an extension of you (the player), i.e. the strategist that gives the orders to the other pieces and only moves when it needs to. So I'd think chessmaster-like people like Yukari are pretty king-like, or maybe just leaders in general. Not too sure about the rest. The queen is like the powerhouse of the game, so I guess someone who'd take an active role in fighting would be one of the protagonists, maybe. So Yukari would have Reimu as her queen? Which kind of makes sense. Although "Yukari's faction" isn't really large enough to fill the other pieces, I don't think. It's also a little iffy since there are two rooks, knights, and bishops each but there obviously aren't enough characters that work thematically to fill each piece, but doubling up on the same character for both pieces could be weird too. |
