The Fatui

Reindottir, also known by her title "Gold" and codename "R" in the Hexenzirkel system, is one of the Five Sinners of Khaenri'ah, a Hexenzirkel mage, and the Ruler of Life among the Four Shadows of the Celestial Principles. She is a Khaenri'ah alchemist and a follower of the Art of Khemia, serving the Eclipse Dynasty during the kingdom's final years. 500 years ago, Reindottir and the other Sinners' use of the power of the Abyss triggered a Cataclysm, causing many of Reindottir's creations to invade the seven nations. Sometime later, she began a project to create an artificial human lifeform, culminating in her masterpiece: Albedo. After parting with Albedo, she absorbed Naberius, merging with it and assuming the role of Ruler of Life.

"Descended" is a term used by Fatui and others to refer to foreigners not from Teyvat. The traveler is known as the Fourth Descended, and Lesser Sovereign Kusanali suggests that the Celestial Order is considered the First.

Because the Descenders hail from outside Teyvat, they are not subject to the rules and circumstances that affect local creatures. Furthermore, information and memories about them are not recorded in the Irminsul. The reverse also applies—their memories are not overwritten when tampering with the Irminsul's data, although this typically affects people, books, and even game descriptions, such as character histories.

For example, the Traveler remembers the Great Empress Rukkhadevata after all information about her was erased from the Irminsul. The Traveler also remembers Scaramuccia after he himself erased himself from memory. Meanwhile, Nahida and Paimon do not remember him.

Not much is known about the Third Descender, but Skirk told Neuvillette that the God Hearts were created from the remains of the Third. Neuvillette and the Traveler theorized that elemental power is inherent to the Descenders, given that both the God Hearts and the Traveler without the God Eye possess power. If this proves true, it would be expected that the other Descenders also possess elemental powers.

The Celestial Order is a mysterious divine entity that governs all of Teyvat, while having arrived in Teyvat from outside.
The original god was probably Fanet. He had wings and a crown, was born from an egg, and was androgynous in nature.
The identity of the Celestial Order is not precisely established. Nahida believes that he is the very first Descender, and that the Shining Shadows also belong to him. Therefore, it is assumed that the Celestial Order is the Primordial (Phanet), or his descendant.
The Celestial Order created the "laws" of Teyvat, embodied in the Hearts of God—chess pieces possessed by each Archon, which allow them to directly communicate with Celestia. Archons are directly subordinate to the Celestial Order, representing its will in each region and abiding by its established laws and restrictions, such as the erosion effect, the distribution of the Eyes of God, the prohibition on the unauthorized creation of life forms, the sanctity of the Earth's Arteries, and so on.
The Celestial Order is capable of casting irreversible curses—such as the "curse of the wild," which it used against the half-blooded inhabitants of Kaenri'ah, transforming them into hilichurls. It also punished the Angels with a similar curse, stripping them of their physical forms and minds and turning them into fairies.
The Shadows of Phanet are the four emanations of the Primordial.
After arriving in Teyvat, the Primordial remade the world. He battled the Seven Lords and created "shining shadows" of himself. After a long and fierce battle, the Primordial made the world what it is today. This nameless shadow helped the Primordial create flora, fauna, and, finally, humans. This shadow also created Egeria, the new heart of the Primordial Sea; the first heart was lost, presumably at the death of the Hydro Dragon.
During the war between Fanet and the Second Descended, Enkanomia sank to the ocean floor, and only Astaroth could answer the people's prayers. The Primordial and the three other shadows remained silent.
The Shadows are more powerful than the Seven, with Astaroth being called the "ultimate power" compared to Raiden Makoto's Electro Archon.

Celestia is a mysterious place, unknown to all. It is a floating island visible in the sky of Teyvat, and also the abode of the gods. It is currently ruled by the Celestial Order, which, however, has remained silent since the cataclysm that occurred 500 years ago.
It is said that only mortals who have accomplished great heroic deeds can ascend to Celestia and attain godhood, where they will watch over the inhabitants of Teyvat. All possessors of the God's Eye are "Source Gods" and have the potential to attain godhood.

The floating "island" actually appears to be composed of several land masses, with one large central rock and approximately seven to eight smaller "satellites" located around it. These outer rocks are connected by a single ring-shaped structure, held in place by several bridges or arches extending from the central island.

The Archons are believed to resonate with Celestia's power directly through their God's Heart, which is the symbol of the Celestial Order's control over Teyvat and all laws.

Among Teyvat scholars, there is a widespread belief that Celestia provoked the Archon War and established its rules. It is unclear whether the gods were fighting for one of the seven divine thrones on Celestia or whether they already held their own throne but lost it upon death. The Seven Archons emerged victorious from the Archon War.

Interestingly, although the Celestial Order is mentioned as a single entity, in the manga's Prologue, Venti recalls three mysterious shadowy figures when Vennessa asks him about Celestia. He clearly becomes uneasy at the thought and quickly changes the subject. It is currently impossible to determine who these three figures might be, or whether they will ever be mentioned again.

The Order of the Abyss is one of the main antagonistic factions in the video game Genshin Impact (along with the Fatui), formed from survivors of the destruction of the underground kingdom of Khaenri'ah and seeking revenge on the Celestial Order and the Archon States. The organization itself is the primary antagonist in the Mondstadt and Traveler storylines.

The Sinner is a sentient being worshiped by the Hilichurls and Klothar. It was discovered by the Traveler's Twin and Klothar. The energy emanating from it is very similar to that of the Corrupted Statue, created by Klothar from the statue of Barbatos.

A moon-blessed land located in the northwest of Teyvat. Follow the silver thread woven by the new moon, crossing harsh winds and frozen tundra until the lakes, like shards of a broken mirror, reflect the eternal sparkle of frost. The days are short, but during the long nights, the light and songs of the new moon gently caress the faces of the Travelers. Light the fires in the tower so that the true light of the moon will shine upon this land once again.

Nod's Edge is an autonomous region located in the south of Snowy Land. It is closely connected to the three Moons that once existed in Teyvat. The Children of the Frost Moon, who inhabit Hiisi Island, worship the Moon Maiden Kuutar, whose statues are located throughout Nod's Edge.

The largest city in Nod-Kray is Nashgorod.

How to introduce her? "Kiongozi" Mavuika, a leader who is certainly worthy of leading the people of Natlan.

All the most outstanding deeds of the ancients are recorded in woven scrolls and epics. Glory passed from generation to generation, and it always lived up to such high expectations.

She is called the strongest. She respects all creatures, both strong and weak, and treats everyone equally.

For this, people sincerely love her, praise her and willingly follow her.

Every time she addresses the participants of the Pilgrimage of the Return of the Sacred Flame, her hair flares up with the Sacred Flame, and her majestic voice resounds in hearts.

She casts her inspiring gaze upon every warrior, upon every Saurian. She calls upon every tribe of Natlan, uniting all the lights into a bright light to drive away the darkness.

We support each other as we make our way through the valley of the long, boundless night, wiping away tears from the corners of our eyes, and finally, with difficulty, lift our heavy heads...

We see nothing but this unwavering red color, like the sun rising in the east.

What did she sacrifice? What did she give up? What willpower brought her to this day?

We have no doubt that she will lead Natlan to another victory.

Our sun will never set.

Natlan is one of the seven kingdoms of Teyvat. It is a country that worships Mavuika, the Pyro Archon, the Goddess of Resistance.

An oath-united state located in the western part of the Teyvat continent.
The flame will guide you through gorges and valleys to torchlit lands where all flames converge. In these fiery realms, where the Saurians roam, you, along with the warriors who stand against the darkness, will witness the end of an ancient war.

Neuvillette is the Supreme Judge, or Judex, of Fontaine and heads the Twilight Court. Despite his human form, he is a Water Dragon, the ruler of Hydro. After the execution of the Hydro Archon and the destruction of his throne, Neuvillette regained control of the Primordial Sea, a power stolen by the celestial order.

Chief Justice Fontaine. He seems unapproachable. It's hard to tell if that's just his personality or if he has something to hide.

Neuvillette is presented as a multifaceted character. On the one hand, he is serious and aloof. He is the law and order, the embodiment of justice, and it is within his power to judge and punish the gods themselves. He has no personal passions, and tries to devote all his time to his work. On the other hand, Neuvillette is quite a sensitive character, although he does not show it. He sincerely worries about his friends and the Melusines, and about the fate and future of Fontaine. Neuvillette wonders why he was born in human form and what his long life will lead to, wanting to understand the meaning of his existence.

One of Neuvillette's notable traits is his sympathy for the Melusines, leading him to be called the father of the Melusines, or even the "male Melusine." As described in the Neuvillette Legends quest, approximately four hundred years ago (relative to the current time in the game), Neuvillette assumed the position of High Judge of Fontaine and enacted a series of reforms, including the integration of the Melusines into Fontaine society. Some Melusines asked Neuvillette to bring them to the Cour de Fontaine, and he, in turn, decided that some of the Melusines' characteristics would be useful for organizations such as the Twilight Court. Thus, it is thanks to Neuvillette that Melusines can still be found on the streets of the city, for whom the judge bears responsibility. Beyond a sense of protective duty toward the Melusines, Neuvillette shares something more with them. In the face of Melusine, the judge, like the dragon Hydro, sees a continuation of the vishaps, sees in them something close and dear, something that is not found in people.

Furina has undoubtedly been greatly loved by the people of Fontaine since she became the Hydro Archon.

Her brilliant speeches, outstanding sense of style and elegant presence gave her the charm of a deity.

But perhaps most of all, it is revered for its unrivaled drama.

As the hero of one popular production of the opera theatre "Epiclesis" put it:

"Life is a theatre, you never know what will happen in the next act."

Furina is like the most unpredictable theatrical characters: her actions are almost impossible to predict.

Perhaps this is why the goddess of judgment and justice, unattainable in her grandeur, so fascinates ordinary people.

But when the curtain falls, there is emptiness left.

Could a deity like Furina feel the pangs of loneliness in the darkness of the night?

No, of course not. It's unimaginable. Who would include such a scene in a play?

It's impossible to believe.

If it weren't for the water of Lucin's fountain, silently washing away Furina's tears.

Furina exhibits great impatience and a childish nature. The prologue trailer for "The Last Feast" shows Neuvillette scolding her for her frivolity.

Furina has fair skin and heterochromic eyes: a dark blue left eye and a light blue right eye. Her hair is mostly shoulder-length, grayish-white, curled at the ends, but she also has a few blue streaks. Furina wears a dark blue suit with a black frill and gold sleeves. She wears a top hat with a light blue ribbon and a white frill attached to a bow. Furina wears a white glove on her left hand and a black glove on her right. Accessories resembling water droplets are scattered throughout Furina's outfit.

The goddess of justice lives only for judgment, not truth, and therefore is ready to judge even the gods. But she, too, understands that arguing with the heavenly order is impossible.

Little is known about Focalors' personality. According to Nahida, Focalors is "a rather peculiar Archon" who doesn't interfere in court proceedings, though she attends almost every court hearing. Nahida explains this by saying that Focalors "simply enjoys the atmosphere there." However, she still reserves the right to influence the verdict. This was likely directed at Furina, as Nahida was unaware of Focalors' deception.

Focalors, Goddess of Justice - Hydro Archon, one of the Seven Archons.

Focalors is a Hydro Archon imprisoned within Oratrice for 500 years. Like all other inhabitants of Fontaine, Focalors was once the Oceanid familiar of her predecessor, the Hydro Archon Egeria, and was also transformed into a human using water from the Primordial Sea. After becoming a god, she deceived Celestia by separating her body and soul, offering her "ideal," Furina, the role of deity. Focalors herself became one with Oratrice and took the Hydro Heart of God with her. Oratrice, according to Focalors herself, was created to assassinate the goddess of justice. In the Archon Quest, Volume IV, Chapter V: Masquerade of the Guilty, Focalors, with the help of Oratrice, sentences herself to death in order to restore the Hydro Dragon's true power and destroy the Hydro Archon's Divine Throne, breaking the cycle created by Celestia. Thus, Focalors is the last Hydro Archon.

Fontaine is one of the seven regions of Teyvat. It is a kingdom that worships Focalors, the Hydro Archon, and the goddess of Justice.

The sea of ​​land in the center of Teyvat.
Follow the water's current, cross wilderness, dense forest, and sandy sea, and reach the source of the mainland's water system. At the top of a waterfall, in the depths of a sea capital above the terrestrial sea... A story no one has heard, a legend long forgotten, like a lost kingdom waiting for a bard to sing its sunken songs.

When the Traveler and Paimon first encounter Nahida in the Sabzeruz Festival samsara, she was an elusive and secretive individual. She voluntarily left the city's governance to the sages, though, as is the case with samsara, she was willing to intervene as much as she could if they crossed a line. She also suffered from low self-esteem due to the way the sages treated her. However, after the sages were overthrown and Irminsul was purified, many of these traits have diminished or disappeared entirely. Now she roams the city openly when she has time, interacts with her people, and has a much more positive outlook on herself.

Despite her previously difficult circumstances, she rarely showed sadness when speaking to people. She is almost always gentle and kind in conversation with people, treating them as equals (even showing compassion for people who have hurt her in the past and, in the opinion of many, did not deserve it: for example, the guilty sages of the Academy who ignored and disrespected her all these years). However, she admits that her social skills and understanding of human interaction need improvement, and as a result, she is prone to slightly eccentric speech and behavior. She also enjoys analogies and often uses them in her explanations. Like many in Sumeru, she believes in helping people find answers for themselves, especially regarding more difficult truths, rather than directly providing answers to questions. As a result, she also tends to season her speech with a mixture of analogies and subtle hints about what she wants from others.

Nahida's most notable traits as the Goddess of Wisdom are her exceptional intellect, knowledge, and planning. She is capable of creating meticulous, multi-layered plans and can even resort to a touch of manipulation if the situation demands it.

The minor ruler of Kusanali, her proper name is Nahida, the name of the Archon is Buer - the current Dendro Archon, ruling Sumeru and one of the seven Archons.

She is the youngest of the Archons and likely the last of the current seven to hold the position of Archon, having become one after the death of the Goddess of the Forests, the Great Mistress Rukkhadevata, during the cataclysm five hundred years ago.

Shortly after her birth, the sages of Sumeru took her to the Temple of Surastana, where they imprisoned her physical form, cutting off all interaction with the outside world. However, she observes Sumeru through the Akasha terminal to which she is connected.

After the sacrifice of the Great Sovereign Rukkhadevata, which caused all memories of her to vanish, it is known that the Lesser Sovereign Kusanali was always the Dendro Archon; the sages betrayed her because she lost all her knowledge during the cataclysm. The only person who remembers the true story is the Traveler.

Nahida has fair skin, pointed ears, large green eyes, and white hair with green tips that glow when she uses her powers.

Promotion
Several different honorary titles and ranks have been mentioned, related to a person's progress in their research and studies at Sumeru Academy:

Driosh, also known as wandering scholars, are students granted leave from Sumeru Academy to travel and study as part of their research. Passing one dissertation through the peer review process is sufficient to graduate from the Academy, after which the students can be considered official researchers.
There's another subgroup of students who are confined to the Academy and don't leave until they graduate or otherwise shorten their education. This type of student has never been awarded any honorary title.
Dastur is a formal researcher who has taken two dissertations through the peer review process.
Herbad are researchers who have great authority and possess vast knowledge, occupying leadership positions.
Sages are also scholars of great authority. Little is currently known about this title, other than the fact that they are quite influential and serve on the Academy's transcendental councils.

Haravatat
Specialization: semiotics.

It encompasses disciplines such as linguistics and the study of ancient runes. Haravatat emphasizes the study of ancient languages, which aligns with the Vahumana darshan, which specializes in history. Participants in these darshans often debate the best approach to studying history. Proponents of Vahumana believe that members of the Haravatat darshan have a "narrow vision," while Haravatat believes that Vahumana's approach, which attempts to find universal rules governing all historical events, "puts the cart before the horse."

One of the languages ​​studied by the Haravat Darshan is the ancient alphabet of King Deshret.

Currently, Haravat is the Darshan with the least number of students.

Studies writing and language as the core and essence of the world. Subjects studied: runology and linguistics. Al-Haytham and Faruzan belong to this darshan.

Kshahrevar
Specialty: technology, architecture.

This darshan studies mechanisms and architecture. Many buildings and structures in the city of Sumeru were created by scholars from this darshan. In particular, their design for a simple one-story building became a template for other urban structures, largely due to its low cost and adaptability. Although the merits of this darshan are widely recognized, most people fail to appreciate or even notice the complex theory behind them.

Kaveh, as an architect, is a member of this particular darshan.

Vahumana
Specialty - etiology, archeology

Members of the Darshan of Vahuman frequently conduct expeditions to various ruins. The floating scroll of songs was discovered in the desert ruins during one such expedition and translated by scholars of the Darshan of Vahuman.

A popular topic among students at this darshan is time-sensitive items. They worked with scientists from Amurta's darshan to develop products related to food preservation and overfishing.

The Sumeru Academy is Sumeru's premier academy in the fields of arcane arts and historical records, and the most prestigious academy in all of Teyvat.

Six darshans
The Sumeru Academy is divided into six darshans, each with its own primary objectives:

Rtavakhist
Specialization: study of stars.

It includes such disciplines as astronomy and astrology. Participants of the Rtavahist darshan believe that studying the stars will lead to truth, and that the stars write people's destinies. In Sumeru, only academics are allowed to study astrology, although other methods of fortune-telling are also permitted. This is where Laila studies.

Amurta
Specialty: biology, medicine, ecology.

It is the oldest of all. It was founded by scholars who followed the Great Queen Rukkhadevata in creating tropical forests. It is not only the oldest, but also the most popular. It was here that Tignari studied. This darshan, or rather, Pardis Dhyay, also collaborates with the Avidya forest: they monitor the forest's condition and provide all possible assistance.

Spantamad
Specialization: study of the arteries of the earth, elements and alchemy.

The main disciplines are alchemy, elemental science, and the science of the earth's arteries. Thanks to their research into the earth's arteries, Spantamad has the largest number of traveling scientists (dreesh). At one point, the darshan began experimenting on animals and comparing them to machines. Because of such entertainment, everyone was forbidden to approach the machines. Lisa and Saino are graduates of this darshan.

Sumeru is one of the seven regions of Teyvat. Sumeru is home to the Goddess of Wisdom, Dendro Archon, and Lesser Sovereign Kusanali. Sumeru is also known as a center of learning, and is home to the Sumeru Academy.

Sumeru's landscape is quite diverse and includes both tropical forests and deserts, which occupy most of the region.

The previous Dendro Archon, Great Sovereign Rukkhadevata, died during a cataclysm 500 years ago while defending Irminsul. Her place was taken by Lesser Sovereign Kusanali, who rules the region to this day.

Lisa studied magic at Sumeru Academy, where she is considered the best student in the last 200 years. Despite the prestige she enjoyed there, she eventually left the Academy and returned to Mondstadt, disillusioned with "mad scientists" and the price one "has to pay for attaining knowledge."

The Deserters are a group of mercenaries who travel throughout Teyvat. They consider themselves "those who do not fear death so that they may live fully." Nazafarin, a scholar from Sumeru, claims that some of them possess "bizarre but formidable abilities" and finds the topic of Deserters rather disturbing, dropping the subject after a brief explanation to the Traveler.

The statue of the Seven Archons in this region depicts a female figure resembling a child. She wears what appears to be a cloak and flowing clothing. The statue is depicted seated on a large tree leaf, an attribute of the Dendro Archon's robe.

Based on various descriptions of her, Ei is portrayed as rather egocentric and boastful: she claims her ideal is "closest to the heavenly order," calls her body "the most noble and distinguished of all in this world," and believes her reign to be eternal. She is noble in her demeanor, but due to the losses she suffered during the Cataclysm and the fear of the erosion that could occur, she decided to migrate to the Euthymia Realm to meditate, reflect, and preserve the "eternity" she always remembered. While she is slow to accept that change is inevitable, she also has a curious outlook on life today. She is shown to be relatively slow to grasp trends.

Raiden Ei, also known by her Archon name, Beelzebub, is the Deity of Eternity and the current Electro Archon ruling Inazuma. She is a member of the Seven Archons. She wanders the world as the Shogun Raiden.

Beelzebub's twin sister, Baal, or Raiden Makoto, died during the Cataclysm 500 years ago. Since then, Ei has assumed the responsibilities of Shogun of Inazuma and continued to rule under the name Baal.

Ever since Ei retired to meditate in the Kingdom of Euthymia, her puppet, "Shogun Raiden," has ruled Inazuma and made decisions regarding everything that happened in the country. She is responsible for the "God's Eye Hunt." After the events of the chapter's second act, Ei decided to abandon the idea of ​​eternity and meditation in the Kingdom of Euthymia and work with the puppet, which has its own consciousness, to lead Inazuma to prosperity.

Makoto and Ei were twin goddesses who won the Archon War together. When Makoto established the shogunate in Inazuma, Ei became her kagemusha (Japanese: 影武者 "Shadow Warrior"), or double. No one knew of the twin sisters' existence.

After Makoto's death, Ei stayed within the Euthymia Kingdom and allowed her puppet, the Shogun, to rule Inazuma based on Ei's own views at the time.

Ei is a young girl with dark purple hair, styled into a long braid. She has bright purple eyes, similar to the color of an electro-element, and a beauty mark under her right eye. She also wears red eyeliner.

Baal is the name of the Electro Archon, the deity ruling Inazuma. This name may refer to:

Raiden Makoto is the original Electro Archon and the deity who originally bore the name "Baal".
Raiden Ei is the current Electro Archon and the deity that currently bears that name.
Shogun Raiden is a playable character using this name.

Inazuma is one of the seven kingdoms of Teyvat. It is a country that worships the Electro Archon, Raiden Ei, and the leader of the faction that rules the country, the Bakufu of Inazuma. According to in-game data, Inazuma is located 4 kilometers southeast of Liyue Harbor.

The people of Inazuma are not entirely friendly to those possessing the Eye of God due to the order to "hunt the Eyes of God" issued by the Archon of the Bakufu of Inazuma, Baal. The order was issued to gather all the Eyes of God and install them into a statue of a thousand-armed, hundred-eyed deity.

A closed archipelago far to the east of Teyvat.
Survive countless thunderstorms and set foot on the islands beneath a canopy of crimson maples and purple sakura. Amid sandbanks, steep peaks, and secluded mountain groves, you can see Narukami Ogosho reaching for eternity.

He has a phenomenal memory, and therefore knows all the nuances of Liyue's traditions and ancient history, making it easy for him to find a place in society as a mortal. He holds very philosophical views on money and holds Liyue's traditions, even those long since vanished, in high regard. He values ​​contracts highly and strives to be modest.

His only drawback is his forgetfulness of everything related to Mora, since he is, in fact, its creator and therefore has no shortage of it. But in mortal form, many are amazed that he makes expensive purchases without even a single Mora in his pocket.

Morax, also known as the Lord of Stone and the God of Contracts, is the last Geo Archon, one of the Seven Archons, and the ruler of Liyue. He is the oldest Archon[1] and, at the start of the game, one of only two original members of the Seven Archons still alive.

Morax has many names and titles, including Supreme Adept, God of Contracts, God of Wealth and Commerce, and Warrior God.[2] He is also the creator and source of Teyvat's single currency, the mora, the very name of which comes from his name.

Once a year, the Lord of the Stone appears before the people during the Descent Ceremony, giving blessings and guidance to the people of Liyue.

Morax's true form is that of a long, brown and amber-colored Chinese dragon.

In his human form, Morax is an adult man with white skin and black hair pulled back into a ponytail. Like other Archons, Morax's eyes and hair tips glow the color of his element, in this case, amber.

In ancient times he wore a long white robe with his own sign, and did not have shoes or other elements of clothing.[3]

In the present, having assumed mortal guise and taken the name Zhong Li, he wears black trousers, a formal gray shirt, and a long dark brown cloak with silver shoulder pads and the diamond-shaped symbol of the Lord of Stone on the back. He also wears black gloves and a yellow gemstone on a chain attached to the back of his cloak.

Liyue is one of the seven kingdoms of Teyvat. It is a country that worships Geo Archon Morax, or the Lord of Stone, as the people of Liyue call him.
A wealthy port city located in the eastern part of the Teyvat continent.
Liyue's landscape is shaped by proudly towering rocky mountains and stone forests, vast plains, and vibrant coastlines. The climate here shimmers with vibrant colors and flowers year-round. Besides Liyue's rocky wonders, locals also enjoy the Archon of the Earth's bounty of precious stones and minerals.

Qixing is a group of seven leaders within Liyue, one for each of the business ventures Liyue is involved in.

Each year, one of the leaders is chosen to perform the Rite of Descent. During this ritual, Geo Archon, the Lord of Stone, makes predictions that determine the business trends in Liyue for the year.

As his ideology suggests, Barbatos is a freedom-loving individual whose mischievous nature can sometimes irritate those around him with its frivolity.

The Archon has a great love of ballads and has a strange habit of rhyming his lyrics. He sees a certain value in music, so much so that he even gives his own lyre a name, saying, "Every being deserves to be named and woven into song."

At the same time, despite his silliness and somewhat carefree nature, Barbatos is a very wise and intelligent deity. He is able to analyze people's feelings and personal experiences, and simply possesses a wealth of information due to his age.

Barbatos's immense courage is also worth highlighting, often expressed in the manga and, most notably, in the game itself. The Archon isn't afraid of conflict and can easily insult or ignore those supposedly far stronger than him.

He is very devoted to his ideals. Although the Archon does not rule the region as he should, he still protects it and maintains Mondstadt's status as a City of Freedom.

Barbatos, also known as the God of Freedom, is an Anemo Archon who rules Mondstadt and is the second deity, besides Morax, remaining from the original Seven Archons who won the war.

This Archon's ideal is freedom, so he prefers to travel and remain uninvolved in the lives of his citizens rather than directly rule the region. His love of freedom has led to Barbatos becoming the weakest of the Seven Archons ruling Teyvat. But despite his frequent absences, the people of Mondstadt still love and worship him.

The Archon appears as a young man with fair skin, black hair, and side-swept braids. It is later revealed that this appearance was based on the Nameless Bard, a deceased friend of Barbatos's who died during the rebellion against Decarabian.

"Anemo Archon Appearance": He wears a white robe reminiscent of ribbons and bandages, with a white hood. On his back are two white wings connected to the hood. The wings have golden circular elements reminiscent of the Traveler's scarf attachment. He wears removable white sleeves on his arms. He also has glowing blue tattoos all over his body. He wears a white stocking on his right leg.
"The guise of a mortal bard named Venti": He wears light green shorts, white stockings, and a white shirt. He wears a brown corset belt adorned with gold embroidery and a small, likely paper, windmill. A light green cloak, resembling wings, with a white patterned lining, is draped over his shoulders. A dark blue bow with a gold stripe secures it at the neck. The outfit is completed with brown boots, a light green beret, and a brown belt with gold embroidery, to which is attached a glass ball, passed off as the Eye of God, adorned with feathers.

Mondstadt is one of the seven kingdoms of Teyvat. It is a city-state that worships the Anemo Archon Barbatos.
The city of freedom, located in the north-eastern part of Teyvat.
From the mountains and vast plains, a carefree breeze carries the scent of dandelions—a gift from the Anemo Archon, Barbatos—through the Cider Lake to Mondstadt, located on an island in the lake.

The Knights of Favonius (or Ordo Favonius) is a knightly order dedicated to the protection of Mondstadt and its surroundings, founded by Vennessa 1000 years ago.

Currently, Master Varka, the supreme commander of the Ordo Favonius, has departed for an expedition beyond Mondstadt with his detachment. Subsequently, Jinn temporarily took Varka's place and became acting Master, receiving the titles of Knight of the Dandelion and Knight of the Lion's Fang.

The Knights of Favonius are traditionally led by one Master and his deputy.

The Master also commands ten captains, key figures in the order. Albedo, Kaeya, Eola, and Gerta are currently the only known captains.

Within the Ordo Favonius there are other units, smaller in rank and size.

Teyvat—the continent of the same name—is divided into seven regions, each corresponding to one of the seven elements and ruled by one of the Seven Archons. A fantasy world where the seven elements exist in harmony.
In the distant past, powerful Archons taught people to control the elements.
With the help of these skills, people were able to turn the lifeless desert into their home.
500 years ago, the collapse of an ancient civilization turned the world upside down...
And although it was a long time ago, the world still has not fully recovered from the catastrophe.

Khaenri'ah was an ancient civilization that was destroyed 500 years ago with the fall of the Black Sun Dynasty during the events known as the Cataclysm. Little is known about this country, other than that it relied on its knowledge of technology and a mysterious form of alchemy called Khemia.

Celestia is a floating celestial island where, according to legend, the gods dwell. The inhabitants of Teyvat believe that mortals who accomplish great deeds attain divinity and ascend to Celestia.

The Dark Sea is a collective term for the regions located beyond the Teivat continent, outside the control of the Seven. It is believed that the gods who lost the Archon War fled to the Dark Sea.

Clothing: Alyosha wears a warm winter jacket decorated with white fur.

Headwear and accessories: He wears a hat on his head that resembles a traditional Slavic kika, and a long, warm scarf is wrapped around his neck.

Equipment: Thick gloves suitable for harsh winter conditions complete the look.

General Traits: Behind the traveler's cool and stern exterior lie ardent ideals.

Sincere and sympathetic: Those around him describe him as a great guy, ready to come to the rescue and pull a person out of the clutches of a monster.

Color Palette: Uses a cool winter palette of white, icy blue, and silver, complemented by a deep dark purple or black gradient.

Hairstyle and Accessories: She has cool blue hair, adorned with an elegant swan-shaped hair clip. She also wears a white cloak covered in black feathers.

The Energy Commission expert is highly skilled in all technologies and frequently visits the Royal Theater, finding inspiration for his developments in the performances of the singer Vodyanitsa and the dancer Odetta. He is a highly important figure in military circles, collaborating with Fatui on the development of the Omela weapon. For this reason, he is guarded by Commander Valery.

The name in English sounds like "Mitya", which is an obsolete abbreviation of "Dmitry".

Mitya is a genius scientist from the Royal Energy Commission in Genshin Impact who wears a sentient scarf.
The scientist is associated with the Kresnik Torches, special heat sources in the icy region around which cities were built.

He's a bright, observant, and intelligent young man, occasionally slacking off from work. Hunter Alyosha notes that he's very easy to talk to, though at first he thought the opposite. Mitya's excessive talkativeness is kept in check by his living scarf, which periodically tugs at him or covers his mouth.

He's an average male model, about 165 centimeters tall (compared to Valery), with short, slightly curly white hair and lilac eyes without pupils.

The scientist is dressed in a white shirt, dark trousers, a gray vest, and a black and purple cape with gold trim and precious stones, to which is attached a sentient scarf with a life of its own. A notable feature is the stylized model of an atom on the researcher's chest, emphasizing his connection to science.

Vodyanitsa is the prima donna of the Royal Troupe.
Vodyanitsa from Genshin Impact is a Hydro singer and prima donna from Snezhnaya, whose character combines the tenderness of an artist with an unexpected emotional liveliness.

Emotionality and liveliness: Contrary to the expectations of fans, who imagined her as quiet and timid due to her fairy-tale image, she turned out to be quite energetic, hot-tempered and lively.

Love of Gossip and Sincerity: She openly enjoys her popularity, loves to gossip, and can easily lose her temper if things don't go her way.

Valery is the commander of the special forces battalion of the First Grenadier Regiment of the Fatui Armory in Genshin Impact. A high-ranking officer, he maintains order and is quite cool-headed. As a future playable character, he uses the God's Eye Electro and creates a shield.

A stern and strong officer commands a grenadier regiment from the Fatui Armory and is tasked with ensuring the safety of scientist Mitya, who is important to the military due to his development of Mistletoe. The major always knows where to find him, but isn't always able to keep him.

In real history, grenadiers were soldiers who stormed enemy fortifications, armed with grenades and firearms. In the game world, they are considered bombardiers—soldiers who specialized in throwing explosive projectiles. This is an honorary title, as only the physically strongest warriors can hurl projectiles over long distances.

Valery places great importance on precise planning and impeccable adherence to deadlines. He is described as a cool-headed commander who can sometimes be intimidating. However, when Alyosha approached the Armory armed, the officer did not arrest him, but merely issued a warning. Thus, they became acquaintances who shared many common views.

Valery's appearance befits his rank: he is a tall, powerfully built man with a calm, stern face. He has fair skin, dark violet eyes with circular irises, and short, dark gray hair. He wears a black military uniform with a long fur coat and numerous metal details.

The Signora, also known by the title "The Lady," is the eighth of the Eleven Harbingers of Fatui. The Signora's real name is Rosalina-Kruczka Loefalter.

Personality
The Signora is very pompous and arrogant, yet usually maintains a detached demeanor. For example, the Harbinger allows herself to call Venti a "petty rodent." She also becomes enraged by the bard's assertion that the Signora's power, bestowed by the Queen, is incomparable to that of even the weakest Archon. The Signora is likely a social Darwinist, as she adheres to the belief that "only the strongest can survive." This is hinted at by her harsh treatment of new recruits in the Fatui ranks, which Tartaglia briefly mentions.

Appearance
Signora is a tall woman with very pale skin, white hair, and light gray eyes with a lilac tint. Part of her hair is pulled back into two buns shaped like roses. She wears a dress with a white bodice with dark accents, a long, muted skirt with high slits, and a pair of separate sleeves that match her long, dark gloves. Over her main outfit, she wears a fur-trimmed cape in a dark red color scheme. She also wears a black Fatui mask of an unusual shape, covering her right eye. A dark red earring is visible on her left ear.

Sandrone, also known as "The Puppet", is the seventh of the Fatui Harbingers.

Personality
Sandrone's character is sparsely explored. It's known that she values ​​her machine research above all else. Tartaglia notes a peculiarity in her personality—the Harbinger looked at a colleague as if she wanted to kill him, even though Tartaglia himself had done nothing to her and had only seen her a few times. Scaramuccia, however, calls her character terrible, fixated solely on her research.

Appearance
Sandrone is a young, pale-skinned woman of average height, with beige hair similar to the traveler's hairstyle: a medium-length bob with two long strands framing her face, and gray-blue eyes.

Her outfit consists of a long white dress with red frills. It features a black corset adorned with a triquetra symbol in the center and ruby-red gemstones between them. The dress has short, dark, puffy sleeves, with long white sleeves peeking out from underneath. She wears white gloves that form a V-shape at the wrist. She also wears white stockings and black high-heeled shoes.

On her head, she wears a white, black, and gold hat with red lacing and black bows on the sides. Around her neck, she wears a black collar trimmed with gold. In the center, there is a pear-shaped ruby-red gemstone.

Scaramuccia, or "The Storyteller," is the sixth of the Harbingers of Fatui.

Appearance
Scaramuccia is a young man with a slender figure and a handsome face. He is short, with short dark blue hair and blue eyes adorned with bright red eyeliner. His attire consists of black shorts and black sandals, as well as a large hat with four upward-curving hooks around the circumference. Two decorative accessories hang from red threads attached to the back of his hat. A translucent black veil, divided in two, hangs from the back of his hat. Overall, his clothing style is reminiscent of traditional Japanese attire.

Character
Scaramuccia possesses a nasty and cruel personality, possessing a sense of absolute superiority over others. He is selfish and incapable of keeping his mouth shut. These qualities make him disliked by many Fatui, and, judging by rumors Victor has heard, even the other Harbingers dislike him. Scaramuccia returns the favor—at the Eyes of Corruption factory, he bluntly states that Signora and Tartaglia are his most untrustworthy colleagues, and it's unlikely his opinion of the other Harbingers (including his superiors) is significantly better. There, he also reveals his sadistic side, watching with rapt delight as the Traveler suffers from the dark energy of the dead Archons.
Besides this, Scaramuccia is a very cunning and unpredictable person.

11th among the Harbingers of Fatui.
Personality
Childe Tartaglia is one of the eleven Harbingers, the ruling elite of Fatui, despite his youthful appearance. He is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Behind his relaxed and friendly exterior lies a deadly swordsman. He is simultaneously the youngest and most dangerous of the Fatui Harbingers. However, Childe is at odds with the rest of the organization. An unrivaled warrior, he does not agree with their deceptive and treacherous methods.

Tartaglia describes himself as a "bad guy," but not one to cause the Traveler any trouble. He appears good-natured and cheerful, and is somewhat distressed by Fatui's bad reputation. He tells the Traveler that he dislikes the Signora's methods and appears thoughtful when the Traveler mentions the incident in Mondstadt as a reason to distrust him. Tartaglia is quite confident and a bit cocky; he says he uses bows because it's a weapon he's very weak with, making defeating an opponent with one all the more exciting. He doesn't think much of throwing money around, even jokingly offering to let the Traveler rob the Bank of the Northern Kingdom if it would help them.

Appearance
Tartaglia has short, wavy red hair and blue eyes. He wears his red Fatui mask tilted to the left side of his head. He wears a simple gray suit consisting of trousers and a jacket with an asymmetrical clasp. The jacket is only half-buttoned, revealing the Eye of God attached to his waist belt. Tartaglia's outfit is completed with black boots and gloves, an aiguillette with a red stone on his right shoulder, and a scarlet scarf attached to it, draped over his back.

Pantalone, also known by the title "Deletsky" and his real (full) name Feofan Sergeevich Veksel, is the ninth of the Harbingers of Fatui, responsible for the economic policy of Snezhnaya.

Personality
Pantalone is the wealthiest of the Eleven Harbingers of Fatui, and he has a unique understanding of "wealth" that extends beyond mere monetary wealth. Currently, the Dealer maintains the Harbingers' reserve capital at full capacity, but he has plans for more. The Wanderer notes that his idea of ​​"fair exchange" destroys the inequality between humans and Archons. However, Pantalone possesses no impressive abilities and works closely with Dottore.

Hair: Shoulder-length, curly black hair with a dark purple gradient at the ends.
Eyes: Gray-violet, often squinted.
Accessories: Wears glasses with silver frames.
Clothing: Black turtleneck, dark purple cape with a fur collar, black pants and dark brown leather shoes.

Pulcinella, also known as "Chicken," is the fifth of the Fatui Harbingers and the mayor of Snezhnograd.

Introduction
When Tartaglia (then known as Ajax) was 14 years old, he was drawn into the Abyss and reappeared greatly changed by the events that occurred there; he had acquired unrivaled fighting prowess and a unique ability to wreak havoc around himself. This piqued Pulcinella's curiosity, and they recruited the boy into the Fatui under the pretext of serving the Queen's punishment.

Personality
Little is known about Pulcinella's personality, but he appears to be quite calculating: he correctly predicted that Tartaglia's immense strength and habit of being amidst chaos could be used to advance Fatui's cause, satiating his appetite for battle. Pulcinella also offers "cautious advice" regarding Tartaglia, calling him trustworthy but cautioning against becoming attached to him. Childe himself believes Pulcinella genuinely wants to help, caring for Tartaglia's family during his absence. The Wanderer dismisses the mayor's concern as genuine, believing Chicken Little is exploiting Childe's control over the family for special purposes.

Headdress: He wears a tall, dark top hat decorated with metallic trim and large blue feathers.
Clothing: The suit is made in dark colors.

She is known to have founded an orphanage whose pupils are raised for subsequent recruitment into the Fatui ranks. The orphans raised in her orphanage are given the patronymic "Snezhevich" or "Snezhnevna," while Arlekkino becomes their leader.

Character
Duality: In public she is calm, polite and courteous, but behind the diplomat's mask lies a cold and ruthless strategist.
Father Role: She acts as a caring figure to the orphans of the Hearth House, demanding discipline but protecting them from the dangers of the outside world.
Pragmatism: According to other Harbingers, she is guided by her own code and may go against Snow's interests if it threatens her charges or goals.

Clothing style: She wears an elegant dark suit with tailcoat details, a white shirt, a tie, and high-heeled boots. Her look is complemented by gray and red accents, reflecting her element.
Hair: Medium length white hair with black streaks on the sides and dark streaks in the back, and short bangs.
Eyes: She has unusual dark-colored eyes with glowing red cross-shaped pupils, which highlight her mysterious origins.

Columbine Hyposelenia is a playable Hydro character in Genshin Impact. She is a lunar goddess known as Kuutar, or the Moon Maiden, revered by the Children of the Frost Moon. Kuutar, the Moon Goddess of Nod, is a soubrette and the third of the Harbingers of Fatui.

Personality
Due to her isolated past, Columbine has extremely poor social skills. Therefore, everyone around her considers her mysterious and strange. Tartaglia and the Wanderer consider Columbine a dangerous and enigmatic creature, warning the Traveler to be careful around her, but Arlecchino considers her special and interesting.

When interacting with others, she's rarely shy about her words, especially when addressing other Harbingers. This personality trait, combined with her innocent demeanor, gives her a sarcastic and humorous side. Nevertheless, Columbine values ​​those she considers her friends, as they've taught her so much.

Another of Columbine's traits is her connection with nature; she is able to communicate with the kuuhenki, and the flowers in the Hall of the Silver Moon change color depending on her state: when she is angry or feels in danger, the flowers turn red, and when she is weak, they turn white.

Appearance
Columbine is a girl of average height. She has pale, fair skin and long black hair that fades to pink at the ends. Her hair is tied into two ponytails in the front, tied with a white ribbon in an X shape, and is left loose in the back. Most of the time, she keeps her eyes closed behind her "mask," but when she opens them, you can see that they are a very pearly color, with blurred light blue pupils and a crescent-shaped highlight beneath them.

She wears a white and light blue dress that appears larger than her body; white ribbons are wrapped around her body, and she has a wing-shaped hairpin on her head and chest. She wears no shoes; instead, she has a "platform" under her heels, mimicking heels. When she walks or teleports herself and others, she leaves behind white feathers that quickly disappear.

Dottore, also known by his title "Doctor" and his real name Zandik, is the second of the Fatui Harbingers and the game's antagonist.

Dottore has long hair and wears a black, pointed mask covering his eyes. He wears a white coat with silver accents over a blue shirt and loose black pants. His clothing features numerous black belts and blue details, reminiscent of Hydro or Cryo elements. Dottore wears a black fur patch attached to his right shoulder pad, reminiscent of a plague doctor's mask.

Personality
While studying at Sumeru Academy, Dottore shared his wild ideas with others, earning him the nickname "monster" and "madman." People chased him away with sticks and pitchforks, leading the young man to conclude that "the academy's style of work doesn't allow for breakthroughs in research." Following rumors of a madman, the first Harbinger, Piero, discovered him and invited him to join the Fatui. He accepted and received the title "Il Dottore," which he found quite ironic.

Dottore's segments represent all periods of the Harbinger's life. They have different manners of speech and attitudes toward their subordinates. Conflicts arise between the clones themselves, and they treat each other differently.

However, every known Dottore is ruthless and indifferent to human life. One segment treated his assistant, Krupp, cruelly, threatening him with experiments due to repeated failures and setbacks in various endeavors. The man (possibly another segment) also showed no interest in the deaths of two of his colleagues, Fatui diplomats, during the Black Flame incident.

Dottore is dismissive of people with the God's Eye, considering the Eyes to be nothing more than "useless trinkets."

Kapitano, also known as "The Captain", is one of the Harbingers of Fatui, with a reputation as one of Teyvat's strongest warriors. Real name
Thrain. Number one of the Harbingers of Fatui.

Personality
Capitano is described as honest, brave, and fearless. This contrasts with the image and reputation of most other Harbingers and irritates the cynical Scaramucci, who views his righteousness as a potential danger. This doesn't prevent Capitano from enjoying a high reputation among both allies and potential enemies.

In his letter, Ordo Master Favonius Varka describes Capitano as a warrior who hides everything behind his mask, yet considers him a man of steely will, ready to challenge even the gods. After reading the letter, Djinn says that Varka has never before praised anyone as highly as he did Capitano.

The leader of the Fatui and Harbingers organization, codenamed Jester.
Pierrot's character is a combination of deep bitterness, fanatical devotion, and cold pragmatism. He is somber, silent, and completely focused on his great goal—avenging the gods of Celestia for the destruction of his homeland, Kaenri'ah. He evaluates people and Harbingers only by their usefulness to the Queen's plans. The past of the destroyed kingdom has left an imprint of endless grief on Pierrot's soul. He serves as the Queen's chief advisor and organizer, sharing her rebellion against the celestial order. Pierrot personally recruited almost all the key Harbingers, skillfully playing on their weaknesses and ambitions.

Pierrot wears a mask on the right side of his face, has streaked gray hair, blue eyes with diamond-shaped pupils, and a dark, high-collared cloak that conceals his tall stature and strong build. The mask covers the right side of his face and resembles elements of a mourning or carnival semi-masquerade style. His light blue eyes have distinctive diamond-shaped pupils, indicating his ties to the ancient region of Kaenri'ah. He has long gray or ash-blond hair pulled back, with strands falling over his face. Pierrot wears a dark coat or cloak with a fur collar and massive shoulders, as well as elements of the official Fatui uniform with medals.

The Queen is the Cryo Archon and ruler of Snezhnaya. Her full name is Anastasia Feodorovna Snezhnaya.

Currently, she doesn't identify with the other Archons, instead pursuing a rather aggressive policy toward the other nations of Teyvat through her loyal Fatui. Shortly before the game's main events, the Queen ordered the Harbingers to obtain the Hearts of the Gods of the other Archons at any cost, which would become the key "to the burning of the old world."

The Queen's personality is little known. Tartaglia describes her as a gentle soul, frozen by the events surrounding her. He deeply respects his ruler—for Childe, she is a true warrior, with a cold but pure gaze. The vast majority of known Fatui also revere and respect the Cryo Archon; for example, Signora believes that nothing is purer than the Queen's ideals.[8] Some Fatui love the Queen to the point of fanaticism.

Her current personality was shaped by the events of the Cataclysm, which occurred 500 years before the game's main plot. Unknown circumstances led to the Queen becoming deeply embittered against the celestial order, ultimately becoming a cold-blooded individual obsessed with revenge against the powers above.

Before the Cataclysm, the Queen was much warmer and more kind-hearted. Initially, her ideal was love, but the events of those years changed her so much that she renounced it.

What ideal she now follows is unknown, but those who knew the former Queen are deeply saddened by what happened. For example, Zhong Li, speaking of the kites representing the Seven Archons, doesn't elaborate on her character traits as he did with the others: "A fine allegory for the good old days... For the Cryo Archon," he says, referring to the time before the catastrophe.

Appearance
A tall woman with long light gray hair and blue eyes with a snowflake-like symbol.

At some point, the Queen inherited her position from the previous Cryo Archon. She was not originally the victorious Archon in the Archon War.

Snezhnaya is one of the seven kingdoms of Teyvat. The inhabitants of Snezhnaya worship the Cryo Archon Queen. The Fatui are a military-religious organization under the Queen's control, infamous for their fierce devotion and their unscrupulous methods of enforcing her will. The autonomous region of Nod's Edge is located in the southernmost part of Snezhnaya.

A land of eternal winter, located in the north of the continent of Teyvat.
Don't fear the bitter cold and don't retreat from the trials ahead. Face roaring snowstorms, traverse silent and majestic frozen wastelands and thundering steel cities—right into the heart of a merciless winter that cares nothing for humanity. There, raise your gaze to the immaculate Pale Star. Even though the bitter cold has long extinguished the warmth of days past, stand beside those whose hearts burn with passion and sorrow, and witness the old world burst into flames upon the ice.

The Fatui are an organization originating from the Snow Empire. They consist of two branches: a diplomatic branch and a military branch, led by Harbingers who answer to the Queen herself. They are one of the main antagonist factions in Genshin Impact.

The Fatui conduct diplomatic negotiations with other kingdoms on behalf of the Snow Kingdom. However, in reality, they use covert and violent methods to obtain what they want from other kingdoms, and as a result, they are generally viewed as a threat to others. According to Venti, the Fatui are the most powerful military organization in Teyvat.

The Bank of the Northern Kingdom is located in Snezhnaya and has branches currently located in Liyue, Sumeru, and Fontaine. When the Fatui work abroad, they can use funds provided by the Bank and also use it as a temporary base.

The Eleven Harbingers are the highest ranking officers, answerable only to the Queen, and given virtually unlimited executive power.
