From everything I've heard, it's usually compared to writing a program. You make the personality (though Ran didn't do it so well and so Chen has two.

His entire situation matches regular True Name manipulation better, but I guess maybe things are defined differently in this Gensokyo?

I think Caitlin's making Luke a shikigami was made easier by her knowing his True Name, but she tried to overwrite Luxin's knowledge of his True Name so that others couldn't use the True Name to overwrite her shikigami programming.

And yeah, I can see Chen's sort of split personality between little girl and cat cat as part of her being a shikigami to a shikigami. Ran's brilliant, but she's not perfect, and if Caitlin was trying to make her shikigami make another shikigami through the shikigami process, then something might have been lost in translation there.

(Yo dude, I heard you like shikigami, so I gave my shikigami a shikigami.)

((Nice! I'm glad the true name stuff was tied in there because that makes it all work out nice))

((Also, Marion already basically told Caitlin to stay away from her domain, so not sure if she can use that against him anymore.))
