Il Dottore

Feofan Sergeyevich Veksel, also known as Pantalone, is the ninth Harbinger of Fatui, responsible for Snezhnaya's economic policy. Zandik met Feofan when he was sold to a lab as a young boy as a test subject. Zandik not only saved his life but also became his attending physician, and later recommended him for the position of Ninth Harbinger. Pantalone owes his career and, indeed, his life to Zandik. Dottore created an elixir of immortality specifically for Pantalone, whose real age now exceeds 400, although he appears to be only 45. Zandik long concealed his concern for Pantalone behind the guise of a scientist, curing all his ailments, including his fabric allergy, so that he could afford to dress well. He also performed organ and skin transplants and unsuccessfully tried to wean him off smoking. Pantalone, in turn, funds Dottore's insane experiments, even after his death, continuing to communicate with his segments, funding their experiments. Pantalone keeps a piece of the original Zandik's soul in a vault in a northern bank, hoping to one day resurrect the scientist. Both are united by a common goal: the overthrow of the existing world order. Pantalone hates the gods, and Dottore considers himself a "heretic," as evidenced by the original's name, Zandik, which he so disliked. Their relationship is based on mutual benefit and a shared path, even if their visions of the future may differ.

Capitano (Captain) - 1 harbinger, a renowned warrior, admired even by Tartaglia.

Dottore (Doctor) - 2nd harbinger, a mad genius who conducts monstrous experiments on people.

Columbine (Soubrette) is the third harbinger, very dangerous despite her beautiful appearance. Like the two mentioned above, her power can rival that of the gods. Columbine is rumored to be connected to the Goddess of the Three Moons.

Arlecchino (Servant) - the 4th Harbinger, head of the children's "House of the Hearth," where children are trained as spies and soldiers for Snezhnaya. She also collaborates with Dottore, giving him some children for experiments. She took her position by killing the previous titleholder.

Pulcinella (Chicken) is the 5th harbinger, a rather short mayor of Snowy. It was he who spotted Tartaglia's talent and brought him to Fatui. He cares for his family while Tartaglia is away on missions for the Queen.

Scaramuccia (Storyteller) is the 6th Harbinger. He is a puppet created by Raiden Ei (Electro Archon), and was a tool of Dottore, who also attempted to transform Scaramuccia into something akin to a god. Currently, the Storyteller is in charge of producing the Eyes of Corruption.

Sandrone (Puppet) - the 7th harbinger, a scientist and inventor, constantly immersed in her research and tinkering with mechanisms. She is almost always accompanied by a huge robot.

Signora (Lady) - the 8th Harbinger, known as the "hot scarlet witch." Born in Mondstadt, the region of Anemo Archon, she fell into despair after losing her lover. A cold, calculating, and cunning woman. She has an adopted daughter, Odette, a renowned ballerina.

Pantalone (Businessman) - 9th harbinger, the richest man in Teyvat, banker, sponsors Dottore's experiments, is his best friend, manages the economic policy of Snezhnaya, a heavy smoker.

10 the harbinger is unknown.

Tartaglia (Childe) is the 11th harbinger, the youngest of them. A skilled warrior, eager for battle. As a child, he fell into the abyss, which determined his path.

Snezhnaya is the last of the seven great states of Teyvat, the true heart of Dottore's power. It is a harsh northern empire, a realm of eternal ice and blizzards. Its borders are strictly guarded. Life there is a daily struggle for survival, but despite the harsh climate, Snezhnaya is the most technologically advanced nation on the continent, renowned for its army, war machines, and factories. The country is ruled by the Cryo Archon, the Queen, whose full name is Anastasia Feodorovna Snezhnaya. She is unlike the other gods. Once a drbra and gentle goddess of love, a catastrophe that occurred 500 years ago transformed her into a cold and ruthless ruler. The people follow her because they believe in her complete protection, and they follow her out of hope.

The Fatui are a powerful military and political organization from Snow, loyal to the Cryo Archon, the Queen. They are feared across the continent, but wield enormous influence throughout Teyvat. All Harbingers are loyal to the Queen, following her and her orders, and unafraid to use underhanded methods to solve problems. The Queen leads the organization, and 11 Harbingers govern it. Each commands their own unit. Publicly, the Fatui are a diplomatic delegation, but behind the façade of banks and embassies, they weave intrigues and use dirty tricks to achieve their goals. In addition to the Harbingers, the Fatui have an army of soldiers, including skirmishers, Cicyn Mages, Agents, and elite operatives who wield a special weapon—the Eye of Corruption.

Omega Dottore has settled in Snezhnaya. As the second harbinger of the Fatui, he was given ample space for his research and experiments, an entire laboratory with all the necessary equipment, where other segments also reside. When not conducting his experiments, he is often found at the hospital, performing the most complex surgeries and training young doctors and surgeons. He collaborates with the local orphanage, having full authority to conduct all possible experiments on the children there.

While studying at Sumeru Academy, Zandik 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, found Zandik and invited him to join Fatui. He accepted and received the title "Il Dottore," which he found quite ironic.
At an unknown point in time, Zandik also participated in some medical research in the Apam Forest, as recorded in a few tattered notes. All the children in the laboratory mysteriously disappeared, which Zandik believed was the result of interference from Aranara, who possessed the ability to control dreams. This led him to conclude that by capturing and controlling Aranara, human intelligence could be "elevated to a whole new level," and humanity could "transcend Earth's boundaries." He was eventually expelled from the Academy, which he considered a loss, despite the rejection he faced from his peers and teachers, as he needed "an environment conducive to research."

Since his youth, Dottore, then known as Zandik, was obsessed with creating "improved humans" who could surpass the Archons. It was supposedly this ambition that led to his expulsion from his hometown and accusations of being a "monster" and "madman" after being accepted into the Sumeru Academy. Zandik once took part in an expedition to the ancient desert city of Gyurabad, where he encountered machines and technology he believed to have been created by a civilization not under the control of the Seven Archons. These were later revealed to be the remains of the long-dead Kaenri'Ah. During their exploration of the jungle, Zandik was partnered with a Dastur named Sohre. Although she initially found him "stubborn" and complained that his research style was too different from Amurta's for them to have much to talk about, they eventually settled into a conversation about the local flora and fauna. They bonded somewhat, but one evening, Sohre went on a picnic with Zandik. She didn't return alive. A later report stated that she had been seriously injured by a pack of Rishboland tigers. At some point, Sohre's remains were exhumed and autopsied to determine the cause of death. Despite lacerations and hemorrhaging, the fatal injury was actually a fractured hyoid bone, suggesting she died of strangulation, not lacerations or blood loss, as the rest of the investigation team was led to believe.

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. Nevertheless, every known Dottore is ruthless and indifferent to human life.
‎
8 years old – a boy with red eyes and thick hair, interested in new knowledge. Unlike other segments, he has at least some empathy.
‎
18 years – this age segment differs from the first in that at this age, the child's personality and self-awareness have already fully formed. They are actively exploring new sciences.
‎
25 years old – hair slicked back, glasses, and a surgeon/doctor's uniform. This one is quite hardworking and cunning.
‎
35 years old – he has medium-length, wavy hair slicked back, and wears a pointed black beak-shaped mask covering his eyes. He wears a long white frock coat over a blue shirt and tie, with a raven-like accessory draped over his shoulders and a wing-like accessory over his right shoulder. This segment is called Omega, and it differs from the others in that it ignores all boundaries and is devoid of any human morality. Despite this, in public, this segment most often uses diplomacy and manipulation, and is calm and calculating. It is this segment that carries out the most inhumane and cruel experiments.
‎
45 years old - He looks and acts almost like he's 35, distinguished by the fact that he wears the coat that all the Fatui Harbingers wear.
‎
65 years old—he had the longest hair of all the segments listed, not counting the trignadic Zandik, who had long since died. He had a completely raven-like head, and was the oldest, not counting the real Zandik. He was much quieter than the other segments, silent, calm, and cool.

The original Zandik is long dead. The segments did nothing to help him as he lay helplessly dying on the floor of their lab, only watching. When he breathed his last, the second segment suggested dissecting his body.

Omega Dottore stands 192 centimeters tall, has a slender build, has longer 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.
