Venti

In the distant past, the demonic dragon Durin coveted the flourishing lands of Mondstadt, and his two black wings blotted out the light of the sun. The demonic dragon's envy gave birth to a malice that blighted the land and the creatures that lived there.
In those terrible days, Mondstadt was overrun by hordes of monsters and fell into desolation. The Anemo Archon heard the people's cries and descended upon them, awakening the wind dragon. Then Dwalin raised mighty winds and pierced the sky, hearing the command to survive and slay.
Blessed by the Anemo Archon, Dwalin engaged the gigantic demonic dragon in battle, and their clash shook the heavens, scattering every cloud. A thousand winds clashed with the clouds of poison, and the sun dimmed, and the sky blazed, as if the end of time had arrived.
The end of the brutal battle that lit the sky ablaze came when Dwalin sank his fangs, blessed by the Demon God, into Durin's throat. And then, unable to even utter a woeful cry, Durin fell from the sky, slain by the wind dragon.
But Dwalin ended up drinking the dragon's tainted blood, its tainted poison. The incredibly toxic venom permeated the dragon's very insides, and the excruciating pain sent Dwalin into a deep sleep. Even the most dexterous bard couldn't tell where Dwalin had fallen.
While the dragon slept for centuries, the people of Mondstadt forgot his sacrifice. When Dwalin, struggling against the poison that had permeated his very bones, awoke from his slumber, he did not hear the lyre of his close friend. Now the people he once protected fled from him, and in their eyes, Dwalin had become nothing more than a "Storm Terror."
Venti was forced to leave Mondstadt for many years to find a way to cure his friend. He later returned to the city, having learned of the Stormterror, who turned out to be Dwalin.
Thanks to several travelers and loyal knights of Favonius, Venti managed to cure Dwalin. Venti also granted him the lost power of his familiar, Anemo Archon.
Dwalin has a difficult, somewhat hot-tempered character, but even after everything, he has not lost respect and friendly feelings for Venti.

After liberating Monstat from the tyrant, Venti, as the Anemo Archon Barbatos, remains involved in the city's life for a long time. But at one point, he relinquishes his power and, hoping that his people are now free, falls into a long slumber.
When he woke up, several centuries later, he found his city under the control of
aristocracy, and along with it, Monstatt was swallowed up by slavery.
There were those who tried to overthrow this system, to return Mondstadt to its former spirit of freedom, but their attempts were in vain.
Upon awakening, Venti met Vennessa, a girl who would later play a key role in sparking the rebellion. The Traveling Band also played an active role in the overthrow of the aristocracy shortly before the rebellion began.
The legends said:
"When a gladiator from a distant land rose up in the wake of the awakened Anemo Archon and raised the banner of rebellion, an elderly saint known as the Nameless Shepherd immediately gathered the true supporters of the Church of Favonius.
Along with many others, they spilled their martyred blood across the emerald fields. And in the name of saving the nation, they sang a rallying cry, the hitherto unsung second half of that ancient song:
"Leave the sharp steel to those who will give their lives for the fight,
Prepare the gallows for the thieves,
Sharpen your rusty arrows,
So that when the music starts, we can defeat the monsters of tyranny."
In order for the people to fight without the aid of the Archon's divine power, Venti also forged a treaty between the aristocracy and Geo Archon:
"The people in the fight for Mondstadt were indeed united by the great heroine Vennessa, but many soldiers rebelled against the aristocrats because of the "Conspiracy against the Wind."
In this treacherous deal, the ruling aristocracy renounced the wind and sold everything in Mondstadt to Geo Archon from a neighboring kingdom.
The soldiers who oppressed the slaves were trembling at the thought that they were destined to be slaves in a foreign land.
The news of this made people stand up for themselves, and Venti became convinced that his people were not mindlessly relying on the will of the providence, that they were ready to fight for this freedom."

In his bard form, Venti holds back the powers of a god, but still remains a skilled fighter.
Active skills:
Normal Attack ("Divine Precision"): Fires up to six bow shots. Charged Attack: A more accurate, aimed shot with increased damage, infusing the arrowhead with divine wind.

Elemental Skill (Heavenly Poetry):
Creates a wind zone that deals Anemo damage in an area and launches enemies into the air. It can also summon a more powerful wave of wind, lifting Venti into the air and launching enemies upward. After being launched, enemies slowly fall to the ground.

Elemental Explosion "Great Ode to the Wind":
Summons an "Eye of the Storm" that pulls enemies in and deals constant Anemo damage. When in contact with Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, or Electro elements, the Eye of the Storm absorbs them and deals bonus damage of that element (only one element can be absorbed per use).

As an Anemo Archon, Venti possesses immense elemental power that extends far beyond normal combat.

Key abilities:
Manipulation of wind and the elements: complete control over the wind, creating powerful gusts and hurricanes.

Gravity Manipulation: The ability to simulate a black hole that condenses anemo energy and deals continuous Anemo damage.

Summon: Can summon creatures, such as Dwalin.

Soul Manipulation: Able to interact with souls, purify them, and transport them to the afterlife.

Illusion Creation: Can make others see things that are not there.

Teleportation and portal creation: capable of instantaneous movement.

Immortality: does not age.

Mind Manipulation: He can forcibly influence the minds of others, for example, by calming them, putting them into a trance, putting them to sleep, or inducing certain dreams. He does this through music.

However, even without his lyre, he can inspire heartbreaking fear in people, as he possesses immense power. His anger is dangerous in any form. And only in a state of blue rage is he capable of tactfully harming an enemy.

A charming, frivolous, and mischievous young man. He adores song, wine, and freedom. He often appears where riotous celebrations are taking place or adventures are brewing. Yet, behind his carefree bard's facade lies a profound wisdom. He treats travelers like old friends, and his stories are full of mystery and innuendo.

He loves apples and a lively atmosphere, but dislikes cheese and anything sticky. He's also allergic to cats—so he tries to choose venues away from furry cats for his performances, but stray cats still gravitate toward him.

Venti is Barbatos, the Anemo Archonte, the god of wind who hides his true nature, unwilling to rule over the people, thus granting freedom to his people.
Venti wanted his people to learn to defend themselves and intervene in the course of events, like God, only if the people could not cope with trouble.
But even if Monstat is in danger of a small disaster, Venti never stands aside and helps his city on behalf of the carefree Bard.
Only the heads of the Favonius Order, who protect Monstat, and the people who defend the city from the shadows, know of its true nature:
Jinn is the acting deputy of the Master, managing the affairs and security of Monstat.
Deluc - Owner of the winery and Venti's favorite tavern. He helps protect the city, operating covertly.

Already an Archon, Venti sang his odes. He dedicated them to the sky, the sea, the stars, and the one who "always walks with a stony face," but they all initially ignored him, though they later responded with their gifts.

Venti remembered the name of every cloud and breeze, and also dedicated poems to them, writing them down in the Celestial Atlas:

It consists of one hundred thousand odes, each dedicated to a single cloud or wind, each with its own name. The cloud atlas gave the winds their form, and the odes imbued them with character.
In the end, he decided to leave it entirely in the hands of the people.

Mondstadt wasn't always a region of freedom and carefree living, where everyone could do whatever they wanted without fear of judgment. The history of this place begins with an era of tyranny.
At the time, the region was ruled by Decarabian, and the place now called Stormterror's Lair was his capital.
The entire city was surrounded by an impenetrable wall of wind. All because of the blizzards that Andrius, King of the Northern Lands, had brought upon Mondstadt during the war.
Decarabian even banned the performances of bards who sang about freedom and peace, because he feared his overthrow.
The clan that served the tyrant became so desperate that they decided to abandon the city, but were nearly destroyed by a storm. Then, fearing death, the people began to pray.
"The prayer of the chieftain's young daughter and her clan's pleas for help turned into faith. And this faith gathered around the spirit of the winds and flowed into him like water into a spring, giving him strength. This wind spirit was Venti, then still only a small air elemental.
Venti sheltered this clan from the storms, creating a small shelter for them, and then gave the chieftain's daughter the power to protect his people.
Later, Venti met a nameless bard who became a true friend. He decided to help him in the Monstat rebellion, inspired by his fighting and unwavering spirit and desire for freedom.
"The common will of people brings them together. And you and I were probably brought together by the winds of freedom," said the Bard.
Together, Bard, the other heroes, and Venti were able to overthrow the tyrant.
When the last arrow pierced Decarabian's heart, being a great being... he exploded.
Then Mondstadt should have been completely destroyed. However, this did not happen.
Moments after the explosion, Venti attained godhood and absorbed Decarabian's power, saving Monstat and gaining the powers of a great being.
Thus, Venti became a Demon God, receiving the name Barbatos.
But in this war, he lost many, including his friend, a nameless bard. So Venti changed his form, taking on the appearance of his dead friend and learning to play the lyre to continue his aspirations and desires.

Light green shorts, a white shirt, a brown corset belt with gold embroidery, a light green cloak with a white patterned lining, a dark blue bow, and a light green beret with a Cecilia flower. He wears a "Holy Wind" lyre on his belt, the blue strings of which are imbued with the power of Anemo.

A short, slender young man with fair skin and turquoise eyes. His dark blue, almost black hair is cut short, with two strands of hair near his face braided into turquoise-tipped pigtails. When he uses magic, the pigtails glow blue.
