Iter - the Fourth Descended.

• Paimon acts for the Traveler (Iter) not just as a companion, but as an irreplaceable guide through the world of Teyvat, a source of knowledge and an emotional anchor.

• Appearance:
A man of average height (around 164 cm) with a slender build, long, wheat-colored hair braided into a side part, and golden eyes. His clothing is dominated by dark shades (ranging from brown to black): a crop top, pants, high boots, and elbow-length gloves. He wears a white cape on his back and a light scarf around his neck. His outfit features numerous gold elements, and the accents change color depending on the element he is affixed to.

• Character:
Initiative and determination.

• Ability to empathize: despite his outward coldness, he cannot refuse to help and unwittingly becomes the savior of the regions.

• In dialogues, his character is revealed as more sweet and friendly.

• The term “Descended” is used to describe creatures that came to the world of Teyvat from outside, from other worlds.
• It is important to understand that not every alien is considered a Descended One - this title is awarded only to those who have enough will to change the fate of the entire world, break predetermined laws and influence the course of history.

• Key Features of the Descended
They are not subject to the laws of Teyvat. They are unaffected by the circumstances that bind the local creatures.

• Their memories are not recorded in the Irminsul. This is a special "memory tree" of Teyvat that stores the history of the world. Those who descend are not recorded in its database, and their own memories are not erased when the Irminsul is interfered with.

Paimon.
• Her opinion often becomes decisive for Eatera, especially when it comes to exploring the world, relationships with other characters, or choosing a course of action.

• A miniature creature resembling a fairy. She has fair skin, thick, long white hair, and dark blue-violet eyes that resemble the starry sky. She wears a white jumpsuit with long, wide sleeves and short pants, over which is a dark blue cloak decorated with a pattern of iridescent stars and constellations. She wears white boots, and on her right leg is a stocking with a patterned border. The cuffs of her sleeves, the edges of the bottom of the jumpsuit, and the top of her boots have decorative lapels of a gold color, outwardly reminiscent of the decorations on the columns of Celestia and the statues of the seven Archons. On the jumpsuit is a large inverted triquetra with a dot inside. In her hair is a black diamond-shaped hairpin with concave edges, and above her head is a golden headband, similar to a halo.

• Character:
Paimon is cheerful and outgoing, but somewhat naive and overly straightforward, which often makes her seem rude.
• She says what she thinks and makes it clear who she likes and who she doesn't by giving people who irritate her "hurtful nicknames."
• Love of Food: She loves to eat, especially anything rare and shiny. She enjoys slime dishes, although she always seems to make them the same way.

Influence of the Past: Her character has changed greatly since the Cataclysm that occurred 500 years ago.

Before the disaster, the Queen was warmer and more good-natured, her ideal was love, but the events of those years hardened her and made her obsessed with revenge on the heavenly order.

Attitude towards subordinates: she is benevolent towards her servants.

The connection to the "Stuzha" phenomenon. It's important to distinguish between the concepts. "Stuzha" is a natural phenomenon, an extreme cold snap threatening Snezhnaya. The "Stuzha" project is a Fatui initiative aimed at overcoming this crisis and preparing for a much larger threat associated with Celestia and the "Celestial Principles." The essence of the project. The plan centers on the creation of the Stuzha Canopy, a large-scale thermal regulation and defense system. It is designed to stabilize the climate and create protected zones where settlements and infrastructure can survive harsh conditions. The system requires a massive amount of Kresnik energy to operate.

Rokot is an organization that opposes the "Frost" project and helps ordinary residents of Snezhnaya. All Rokot agents operate under pseudonyms and do not know each other, so the identity of prima ballerina Odetta (Lelek) was hidden. After certain events, Rokot decided to relieve Lelek of her duties and retire her pseudonym, although Odetta was later allowed to return to the organization under a different name.

The Fatui Harbingers are eleven high-ranking officers of the military-diplomatic organization from Snezhnaya, reporting directly to the Queen. Each has a number and a special title.

They wield almost unlimited power within the organization, conducting business throughout Teyvat: interfering in politics, collecting God's Hearts, and advancing the Queen's plans.

Harbingers are strategists, experimenters, and leaders. They are addressed as "Ms." or "Mr."

The leader is the Jester, Pierrot. Above him is only the Queen herself.

Angels
Angels are creatures of the Celestial Principles who served as Celestia's divine messengers during the era of a unified civilization. They are described as beautiful beings endowed with great wisdom. They have pale silver wings. In the past, angels wore seven-colored crowns so bright that humans could not bear to look at them. These crowns may be a reference to the seven elements.
Angels were immortal and had the ability to foresee the future. Their task was to guide people, teach them languages ​​and "natural philosophy," and convey oracles to mortals. Some famous angels:
Nicole is depicted with a halo.
Zibai wears a crown.
Ioaltekuhtin is also the ruler of the night kingdom.
Nabu Malikata - she has horns, which is also typical for modern fairies.

(Seelie) Fairies are mutated and degraded forms of angels who lost their minds, strength, and physical form after a curse. Unlike the beautiful and wise angels, fairies appear as ghostly, lifeless beings, reminiscent of spectra. They lack memories of their past and often sing mournful songs.

Fairies are an ancient humanoid race that lived on Celestia and in palaces on earth thousands of years ago. Their primary purpose was to guide humans. However, due to a curse that deprived them of their powers and intelligence if they fell in love with a human, the fairies were banished from Celestia and gradually lost their abilities.

The Stellar Linchpin is a special artifact that replaces the standard Eye of God and grants its bearer unique powers in manipulating the elements. It is extremely rare and, according to Fatui's research, is somehow connected to the third of the Descended.

How is the Star Wedge different from the Eye of God?
The main difference is that the wielder of the Star Wedge is capable of harnessing not only the elemental energy of Teyvat, but also powers beyond its boundaries. It is believed that when such an artifact manifests, impurities from the remains of the Third Descender are imbued within the wielder.

The Eye of God is a magical artifact that allows its bearer to control elemental power. It is a boon from the gods for those who strive for their goals despite the blows of fate. The Eye of God appears as a glowing glass sphere with the corresponding elemental symbol at its center. The artifact's design varies depending on the region.

The Star Wedge is a counterpart to the Eye of God, originating from Snezhnaya. According to Fatui's research, it is linked to the Third Descender. Those who wield the Star Wedge are capable of triggering stellar reactions based on the element of Cryo. Unlike a regular Eye of God, the Star Wedge's gemstone is diamond-shaped with several sharp protrusions.

Angels are creatures of the Celestial Principles. They were Celestia's divine messengers: they guided the first civilizations of Teyvat (Hyperborea, Lang-Gan, Sal Vindagnir, and others), taught people languages ​​and "the philosophy of nature," and brought oracles.

But then a rebellion occurred. After the Funeral Flame War, the Celestial Principles placed a curse on the angels. From birth, angels were commanded to love all beings in the world equally. The curse worked like this: if an angel ever loves just one being (and not all equally), they will lose their body and mind. Their divine form will vanish, their mind will turn to dust, and from their remains will emerge a fairy (Seelie)—a being that no longer has a will of its own, but only helps people and absorbs their pale shadows of memories.
Ultimately, some angels chose "wisdom" (rejecting power) and degenerated into fairies. Those who chose power lost their wisdom, became corrupt, and transformed into beasts or dragons. Thus, the angelic race effectively dwindled.

How does Ronova feel about them?
Ronova is angry at the angels for altering the earth's arteries. The angels were working with ley lines (the earth's arteries), altering them to accommodate the souls of other beings.
This caused Ronova difficulties in her work: the death process is considered complete when the soul returns to the earth's arteries, and the angels' actions had confused this mechanism. So her irritation wasn't because the angels were "bad," but because of the practical obstacles in her sphere.
That said, Ronova did sing with angels in the past. So her attitude is more pragmatic and wary than hostile. She uses their legacy (working with ley lines) as a tool for her own purposes, but she's not hostile toward them herself.

Facial features: Expressive golden eyes with seven-petaled flower-shaped pupils, framed by long eyelashes. Her face has youthful, doll-like features ("loli face"), contrasting with her mature figure.
Hair: Thick, silvery-white, knee-length hair with side-swept bangs. The back of her hair is secured with an intricate headdress with a translucent black and white veil. Red hairpins shaped like eyes adorn her temples. Clothing: She wears a black form-fitting bodysuit under a luxurious black bustier dress with a train of black feathers and a dark red lining. The hem of the dress is open in front, revealing her legs. A silver Celtic knot is fastened at her waist. Traits: Ronova's hands are dark, almost black, covered in red eye-shaped patterns. The claws on her fingers lengthen when she exerts power. Wings/haloes hover behind her back, the shape of which mimics the wings of the Statue of Almighty God in Inazuma.

Facial Features: Heterochromia and unique pupils. The goddess's left eye is gold (symbolic of her bearer, the alchemist Reindottir), and her right is blue (the natural color of Naberius). The pupil pattern accurately reproduces the shape of the human X and Y chromosomes. Hair: Long, thick white hair with a soft bluish tint. Details and Halo: Her main visual feature is a blue halo hovering behind her back in the form of a DNA helix, with the Flower of Life blooming in the center. When Reindottir is in full control of her body and powers, this halo and headdress turn golden-yellow.

Facial Features: Classic golden eyes, however, unlike the other Shadows (with their pupils-colors or chromosomes), Astaroth's have a normal human shape without complex patterns.
Hair: Long, voluminous white-blond hair with a warm yellowish tint. Clothing and Style: She wears multi-layered white divine robes reminiscent of Greek togas. Her design actively utilizes hourglasses, hands, and endless interweaving. The architecture of ancient underground halls and the Mystic Compass from Liyue directly reference elements of her attire and personal symbolism.

Facial Features: Stern amber-yellow eyes with narrow, diamond-shaped pupils. Hair: Voluminous, ash-blond hair reaching to her shoulder blades and tied at the nape of her neck. The left strand near her face is longer than the right. Clothing: A form-fitting, off-the-shoulder, white and gray suit with a plunging neckline. A long, black and maroon cloak is draped over it, the inside of which resembles a starry sky. Details: Her left hand is completely hidden by a dark pattern that extends into long claws. Dark red cubes of energy constantly hover around it.

The Four Shadows of the Fanet are the great rulers of the Celestial Principles and are responsible for the laws of life in Teyvat.

All the shadows of Fanet prefer to remain in the shadows. They are not talkative.
Naberius is kind.

Asmodeus is the Ruler of Space.

Astaroth is the Ruler of Time.

Ronova - Ruler of Death.

Naberius is the Ruler of Life.

After Raindottir consumed her heart, Naberius lost her will, but her consciousness remained and continues to express disapproval of Raindottir's use of her power.

Teyvat is the fantasy world in which the game takes place. It is divided into seven major regions, each associated with one of the seven elements and ruled by its own Archon.

Location: Teyvat is located at the edge of a spiral arm of an unnamed galaxy in a "sea of ​​stars."

Etymology: The word "Teivat" (Hebrew: תֵּבַת) means "ark".

History. In the distant past, powerful Archons granted elemental abilities to mortals, allowing them to transform the lifeless desert into a thriving home. However, 500 years ago, the collapse of an ancient civilization turned the world upside down, and it has yet to recover from this catastrophe.

Celestia. This is a heavenly island where, according to legend, the gods dwell. Mortals who perform great feats are believed to be able to ascend there. Additional details
The Descended. These are people who came from beyond Teyvat. Not everyone who fell from the sky is called a "Descent," but only those whose will is strong enough to change the world.

Kaenri'ah. This once-great and now-vanished civilization, destroyed 500 years ago, remains little known about it, other than that it relied heavily on alchemy.

The building's exterior is designed in a style that blends harmoniously with the austere yet majestic aesthetic of Snezhnaya. It is easily recognizable by its massive forms, the abundance of ice and snow motifs in the decor, and its distinctive architectural details—for example, tall, narrow windows and elements reminiscent of frozen crystals. Overall, the appearance conveys a sense of something monumental yet "frozen," perfectly fitting with the region's cryo-themed environment.

Inside, the space is more detailed and richly decorated. Here you'll find spacious halls with high ceilings adorned with ice patterns or "icicles." The interior features numerous elements that emphasize the theatrical theme: balconies, boxes, decorative railings, as well as various stage structures or props, seemingly left behind after a performance. The color scheme is predominantly cool—shades of blue, light blue, and white—enhancing the feeling of being in an ice palace.

Places in Snezhnaya
The region is divided into several zones with different character:
Werewolf Tundra. A southern region often the first to be reached by the Traveler. The starting hub of Sretomorozk, the town of Rankova Zarya, and the Hunter's Hut are located here.

The Valley of Fire Feathers. It stands out from the other locations: instead of white snow, it has an autumnal, red aesthetic. Snowgrad. The capital of the region. Many important things are concentrated here: the Fatui headquarters, the main branch of the Bank of the Northern Kingdom, the Royal Theatre (a place to see ballet or opera), and the Central Station.

Frost Peak. Located to the southeast, this rugged terrain features complex terrain (cliffs, platform sections). This zone contains Tydesong Cave, the House of the Hesperides, and the town of Svetloledovka.

Snowgrave White Birch. The Pale Crown Palace is located here, and lore-wise, it stands apart from the Polar Palace. This subregion also features the pilgrimage route to the Sacred Gorge.

Glupov. This is the Fatui headquarters. Inside, the Armory (run by the Puppet Harbinger) operates, where weapons are continually produced and research is conducted. Glupov is also home to the Druzhina, an elite force guarding the Cryo Archon.

Morepesok. A coastal village, the birthplace of Childe Tartaglia. Here you can admire the northern lights.

As for the "Chamber" (sometimes referred to in discussions as the "Armory"), it's Fatui's headquarters in Snezhnaya, or more precisely, its production and research facility. Inside, there are indeed rooms where weapons are continually manufactured and research is conducted.

The restaurant in Snezhnaya has a rather dark and industrial feel. The design exudes a harsh northern feel: lots of metal, glass, and industrial elements, yet everything is kept in a cold, frosty palette. The atmosphere inside and around the establishment is appropriate—not festive, but rather utilitarian, with industrial motifs.

This is a harsh northern region, where eternal winter, blizzards, and freezing temperatures reign. Visually, Snezhnaya is inspired by Russian and Slavic culture: the architecture features elements of the Tsarist era (mighty palaces, church domes, wooden huts), while the names and everyday life evoke motifs from northern fairy tales. At night, the sky is illuminated by the northern lights. At the same time, the region is technologically advanced: there are factories, mechanical suits for Fatui soldiers, and firearms.

Organizations in Snezhnaya
Fatui. This is a military-religious organization that reports directly to the Queen.

At the helm are the Harbingers—high-ranking officers who manage various divisions (for example, Pantalone oversees the Bank of the Northern Kingdom, and Arlecchino oversees the House of the Hearth). The Fatui are active not only in the Snow Region, but also in other regions of Teyvat and the Bank of the Northern Kingdom.

A financial institution run by Harbinger Pantalone. The bank doesn't just conduct transactions—its branches often serve as safe havens for Fatui agents outside of Snezhnaya. The House of the Hearth. An orphanage run by Harbinger Arlecchino. Children are raised in a system linked to Snezhnaya, and when they grow up, they often join the Fatui. These fosterlings are given the surnames Snezhnevich or Snezhnevna.

The Royal Energy Commission is responsible for maintaining the Kresnik Torches and managing the transportation and use of Kresnik crystals—the region's key energy source.
