Neuvillette

Neuvillette is the Supreme Judge of Fontaine and the leader of the Phantom Gendarmerie. While Neuvillette respects court rules with the utmost reverence and often reins in Furina's extravagance, he is quite distant when it comes to human emotions and often shies away from public opinion.

Neuvillette is the Iudex of Fontaine and the reborn Hydro Dragon, one of the Seven Sovereigns who originally ruled Teyvat before the arrival of the Celestial Principles. Due to impurities created by the Bathysmic Vishaps during his time in Enkanomiya, Neuvillette was born in human form instead of as a dragon lord, resulting in the loss of a significant portion of his powers and memories. He was later discovered by the Hydro Archon Focalors, who brought him to Fontaine to serve as Iudex in order to help him learn human emotions and develop empathy.

Personality
In accordance with his role as Chief Justice, Neuvillette takes the court and trials very seriously, delivering impartial verdicts. He is remarkably perceptive, able to hear Paimon's whispers and deduce additional details from the evidence presented during a trial. He uses the Cardinal Analysis Mechanical Speaker to reach the final decision, adhering to its request regardless of his own feelings about it, as per protocol.

Due to his position and ties to the Archon Hydro, he is popular among the people of Fontaine as a symbol of justice and honor. As a member of the Seven Sovereigns, Neuvillette is unfamiliar with human customs and feelings, relying on the court to understand them. He rarely spends time in public, disliking unwanted attention, and on the few occasions he speaks with humans, he is distant, though honest. However, when interacting with the Melusines, he is extremely friendly, considering them the ideal father figure; likewise, he fiercely protects them, regards them as the pride of Fontaine, and personally investigates any case if he learns that a Melusine is being harassed or threatened. This stems from his inability to protect his friend and subordinate, Carole, when she was driven to her death by Fontaine prejudice, as Neuvillette was forced to condemn his other friend, Vautrin, for carrying out a revenge murder on Carole's behalf. Since then, he has vowed to prevent such a tragedy from ever happening again.

Upon his first reincarnation, Neuvillette was left with many questions about himself, leading him to accept a position as an Iudex. The time he spent overseeing trials exposed him to a plethora of human experiences and emotions, secretly orchestrated by the Focalors in the hope that his newfound perception would save the people of Fontaine from an impending prophecy that would exterminate them.
