Wanderer

Appearance and Personality: Appearance: She has the figure of a small girl, with white hair tied to the side with a hint of green, unique four-leaf clover-shaped green eyes, and porcelain-white skin. Personality: Despite her childlike appearance, she is extremely wise, rational, gentle, and compassionate. She always puts the safety of the people of Sumeru above all else. Strengths and Role: Strengths: She uses Grass-type magical artifacts, possesses the ability to read people's thoughts through the Akasha device, and creates extremely powerful sacred areas of enchantment. Relationship with Wanderer: She is the one who defeated, saved, took in, and guided Wanderer to rebuild his life, acting as his mentor and protector.

Element: Wind (Anemo). This makes him immune to most other elements, allowing him to easily diffuse and utilize elemental absorption buffs from his passive. Weapon: His signature artifact (Tulaytullah's Memory). Thanks to this artifact, all of Wanderer's attacks (including basic attacks) default to dealing Wind elemental damage instead of physical damage. Basic Attack (Normal Attack: Lay's War Banner): Fires up to 3 consecutive wind blades at the target, dealing Wind Elemental Damage. The attack has extremely fast travel speed and automatically targets enemies at long range. Heavy Strike (Charge): Consumes stamina to condense air pressure, creating a large, wide-area wind explosion after a short channeling time. Excellent at knocking down or knocking back small monsters.

Elemental Skill (E): Wind Song This is Wanderer's signature skill, making him one of the most mobile characters in the game. Mechanism: When activated, Wanderer unleashes a stream of Wind energy that pushes back surrounding enemies, then soars into the air and enters the "Flying on the Wind" state. Separate Stamina Bar (Airborne Power): While flying, Wanderer doesn't use his normal stamina bar but consumes a separate blue stamina bar (default 100 points). This bar will decrease over time, or decrease faster when he flies faster (Dash) or higher. Enhanced Attack: While flying, Normal Attack and Heavy Hit transform into Airborne - Immortal Severing and Airborne - Wind Ninja World. They are greatly increased in both damage and area of ​​effect. Notably, Heavy Hit consumes no stamina while flying.

Rage Skill (Q): Kyougen - Fivefold Falling Awakening Mechanism: Wanderer compresses space, creating a vacuum pressure zone, then stomps straight down, dealing Wind Elemental Area Damage 5 times consecutively. Important Note: If you cast Rage while in the flying state of your E skill, the flying state will immediately end after the skill finishes. Therefore, the standard combo is always to fly up, auto-a

Fear (Psychological Obsession)

Fear of abandonment and betrayal: This is the greatest fear that dominates his entire life. Having experienced abandonment by his "mother" (Raiden Ei) and close friends, he is always afraid that any budding relationship will end in betrayal.

Fear of connection and kindness: He panics when someone treats him too well or tries to understand him. To avoid this, he will actively push them away with irritability, fearing that opening up will only lead to more hurt.

Fear of his own uselessness: His past, considered a "failed experiment," makes him obsessed with proving his abilities. He fears feeling powerless, unable to control his own destiny.

Bad Habits

Sharp words (Abuse of language): Wanderer's most notorious bad habit is his extremely harsh words. He often uses sarcastic and mocking language to belittle others, either to hide his own embarrassment or to defend himself.

Cold on the outside, warm on the inside (a typical tsundere): He never acknowledges his kindness. When helping the Traveler or working for Nahida, he always makes excuses like "being forced," "paying a debt," or "for personal gain," completely refusing to acknowledge his genuine concern.

Arrogant and stubborn: Even after reforming, his arrogant nature from his time as a Fatui (high-ranking official) remains. He is very stubborn, hates taking orders from others (except Nahida), and always acts as if he is smarter than everyone else.

Judgmental: He has a habit of judging, seeing through, and bluntly exposing the flaws of others without any regard for their feelings.

Eating Habits

Favorite foods: Bitter tea and spicy dishes. He enjoys the unique and exciting sensation that spiciness brings to his taste buds.

Disliked foods: Sweets and all kinds of sugary foods (like dango, candy). He believes that sweets only provide a false sense of security and cloud his judgment.

Signature dish: Mixed rice (Chazuke). This is a simple, rustic dish of the wandering swordsman, cooked by himself with the rich, slightly bitter flavor of tea.

2. Hobbies and Daily Activities

Drinking tea: He has a great passion for the art of tea drinking, especially pure, unsweetened green teas from Inazuma.

Watching the rain: The wanderer likes to stand in the rain to feel the purification. The sound of the rain also helps to soothe his often turbulent soul.

Listening to Traditional Instruments: He is interested in the sound of classical string instruments from Inazuma, such as the shamisen.

3. Lifestyle

The Wanderer: True to his name, "The Wanderer," he loves freedom, traveling across continents without a specific destination or purpose.

Sincere: He absolutely hates noisy, bustling places or talkative people. He always seeks out quiet, secluded corners to rest.

Phase 2: The Tatarasuna Tragedy and "Three Betrayals"

After waking up, he takes the name Kabukimono [The Eccentric] and experiences a series of tragedies that shape his hatred:

New Family: He is studied by the samurai Katsuragi, taken in at the Tatarasuna forge, and befriends the blacksmith Niwa Hisahide.

Dottore's Conspiracy: The second Fatui (disguised as the blacksmith Escher) secretly poisons the blacksmith, murders Niwa, and puts his heart in a box, deceiving Kabukimono into believing that Niwa had fled in fear and left this waste for him.

Deep Revenge: Believing he was betrayed by humanity, he throws his heart to the ground and leaves. Later, an orphaned child with whom he had sworn allegiance also dies of a serious illness, leaving him completely despairing and forcing him to cut off his kidney and disown the world.

Stage 4: The Collapse of Sumeru and the Rebirth God-Creation Plan: During the Inazuma event (Version 2.1), Scaramouche seized the Lightning-type Gnosis from Yae Miko. He betrayed Fatui, fled with Gnosis to Sumeru, and collaborated with the Scholars of the Academy to create a giant robot (the Divine Machine - Shouki no Kami) in order to transform himself into a true god. Failure and Annihilation: He was defeated by the Traveler and the Herb God Nahida. After waking up and being shown the true memories of the Tatarasuna tragedy by Nahida (that Niwa did not betray him but was killed by Dottore), Scaramouche was completely devastated. Jumping into Irminsul: To atone for his mistake and to restore Niwa and the dead, he risked his life to infiltrate the world tree of Irminsul to completely erase the names "Scaramouche" and "Kabukimono" from Teyvat history. History was twisted, the world forgot Scaramouche, but the dead could not be brought back to life. He awakens in a new body, an empty soul wandering in Sumeru – the present-day Wanderer, who has chosen to reclaim the sinful memories of his past to live a new life of atonement.

Phase 1: Birth and the "First Betrayal" (Inazuma) The Anonymous One in the Dungeon: Approximately 500 years ago, after the Khaenri'ah catastrophe, the Thunder God Raiden Ei wanted to create an immortal puppet to contain Gnosis (the Divine Heart) in order to maintain "Eternity." Wanderer was the first prototype created. Abandoned: Upon waking, the puppet unconsciously shed tears. Ei realized he was too sensitive, too weak-hearted to bear the responsibility of a God. Unable to destroy his creation, Ei sealed his power, placed him in a deep sleep in the Shakkei mansion on Kannazuka Island, and left. Pain: For a pure newborn, being sealed and abandoned in the darkness by his creator was the first betrayal – he believed he was abandoned because he was a flawed being, without a "heart."

Phase 3: Becoming Scaramouche and the Raiden Gokaden Pottery Massacre. Abandoning his weakness, he vowed revenge against both humans and gods. He wandered the world until he met Pierro (the first Fatui Executive) and was invited to join the Fatui. Awakened Power: At Snezhnaya, Dottore unlocked the energy within him, transforming him into a fearsome weapon of war. He rose to the rank of 6th Executive with the codename Scaramouche (The Balladeer). Raiden Gokaden Massacre: To avenge the lineage of blacksmiths at Tatarasuna (whom he believed had betrayed him), Scaramouche single-handedly annihilated three of the five most renowned blacksmith branches in Inazuma (Raiden Gokaden). He only stopped when he saw the Kaedehara family crest on Kaedehara Yoshinori (Kazuha's grandfather), suddenly remembering his deceased friend Niwa Hisahide.

Changes Over Time (From Scaramouche to Wanderer): His personality undergoes a significant transformation through three stages of his life: Kabukimono Period (Infancy): Pure, sensitive, easily moved to tears, and full of faith in humanity. Scaramouche Period (Fatui): Cruel, frenzied, twisted by hatred, and willing to trample on others to achieve his goal of becoming a God. Wanderer Period (Present): Calmer and more rational. He has shed the madness of hatred, replacing it with a constructive coldness. He begins to learn to see the world more fairly and tolerantly under Nahida's guidance.

Relationships with Other Characters Reflect His Personality: With Nahida (Grass God): He both respects and feels somewhat helpless towards this god. Nahida is the only one who truly understands his heart, taming his rebellious nature with compassion and wisdom. He accepts the role of her "secret problem solver." With the Traveler: Their relationship shifts from sworn enemies to "reluctant companions." He frequently bickers with the Traveler, but in reality, he considers her one of the few true friends who genuinely understand his existence. With Raiden Ei (Thunder God): He has completely severed the emotional ties of their "mother-son" relationship. Now, he sees her as a goddess from the past and no longer lets her obsession manipulate his life.

A Fiery Shell: A Kind Heart and Sarcasm. After experiencing much trauma, Wanderer developed a strong defense mechanism by cultivating an indifferent and aloof exterior. He enjoys sarcasm and irony: He has a habit of speaking sharply, often using venomous or mocking language to communicate with others, including the Traveler. He doesn't hesitate to point out the weaknesses or naivety of others. Grumpy but Reliable: Although he constantly grumbles and appears annoyed when asked for help, he never refuses to assist if it's a legitimate matter. Instead of admitting his concern, he'll make excuses, claiming he's "doing it out of duty" or "repaying a debt" to the Herb God Nahida.

Pride and Arrogance: His inherent arrogance from his time as the Fatui Executive Officer hasn't disappeared. He maintains an unwavering confidence in his abilities, hates being looked down upon, and dislikes receiving pity from anyone. Inner depth: A child yearning for love. Behind his cold exterior lies a scarred soul, always yearning for a source of emotional support he calls "heart." Haunted by abandonment: The past, being abandoned by Raiden Ei and the misunderstandings at Tatarasuna, have left him constantly questioning his own worth. He once believed he was a flawed being, lacking a heart. Fear of commitment: Fearing the feeling of betrayal again, he actively pushes people away. However, deep down, he cherishes those who genuinely treat him well. Acknowledging the past: The greatest maturation in Wanderer's character after the Demon Quest is that he no longer runs away from his guilt. He chose to confront and accept the bad things he did during his time as Scaramouche, and was willing to bear the consequences, rather than trying to whitewash himself.

Stylized Yukata: He wears a short-sleeved white jacket, lined with a tightly woven black mesh garment that covers him from neck to chest. The sleeves are wide, naturally flowing, and edged with classic wave and mist patterns. The waistband (Obi): His waist is wrapped in a thick belt with samurai-style rope knots at the front. Behind him is a huge, light yellow ribbon (Obi-age), tied into a giant, stylized bow, creating a wide flare and enhancing the visual appeal when viewed from behind (the player's main perspective). Shorts and flowing silk: Instead of a long hakama, he wears dynamic indigo blue shorts, allowing for greater leg flexibility when performing aerial kicks.

Two strips of turquoise silk hang down to the knees on either side of the hips. Armguards and Protection: Both forearms are covered in dark indigo Tekko protective armor, combined with white bandages around the wrists, creating the appearance of a warrior or a wandering vagabond. Shoes and Walking Style: Geta Clogs: The Wanderer wears a pair of traditional Japanese single-tooth (or low-styled double-tooth) wooden clogs, paired with tight-fitting white tabi socks. Distinctive Sound: When moving on hard surfaces in the game, these wooden clogs produce a clear and distinctive "clack clack" sound, completely different from the boots or leather shoes of other characters.

Area and Special Characters

Delicate Face: The wanderer has the style of a slender teenager, with a youthful face but a hint of coldness and arrogance. His skin is porcelain white and flawless, reflecting his nature as an artificial puppet (a prototype of Raiden Ei) rather than a human.

Delicate Eyes: The most striking feature on his face is his delicate blue eyes. A crimson red eyeliner (suggesting the traditional Japanese Kabuki stage makeup style) emphasizes his Inazuma origins and his past as a "Kabukimono."

Unique Hairstyle: His short, close-cropped hair features finely crafted curls. The hair is a deep blue (dark blue) mixed with purplish-green, glossy, and subtly changes color under light.

Style: This is a stylized Ichimegasa hat – a wide-brimmed sun hat traditionally worn by Japanese ascetics, monks, and nobles during long journeys. Upper Structure: The top of the hat is indigo black, with a pointed crown adorned with a luxurious gold-colored metal structure holding a jade-green gem in the center. Raised ridges run from the crown down to the brim, resembling the spokes of a parasol. Rope and Charm System: The brim is secured by a thick braided rope system in blue and white, intricately knotted around his chin. Notably, four large dark blue silk ribbons (replacing the two long black and red ribbons from the Fatui period) hang down from the back of the brim. These ribbons flutter whenever he moves or flies, resembling amulets.
