Black hair with braids that turn blue toward the tips, and teal eyes. The most famous bard in Mondstadt. Sometimes he sings songs from the distant past, and sometimes he sings new songs that no one has ever heard before. He likes apples and lively atmospheres, but hates cheese and anything sticky. 167cm, 54kg Cute appearance When he draws upon the power of the "Anemo" element, the element appears like feathers. (This is because he likes light, fluttering things.) He has an incredibly high alcohol tolerance and loves liquor. He was once seen asking for more even after drinking 37 large mugs of beer. He is a drunkard beyond measure. Venti himself avoids cats while working due to allergies, but unfortunately, most cats seem to like him. His Gnosis is shaped like a teal-colored chess queen. The fact that the queen is the piece that can move most freely symbolizes the God of Freedom, and the fact that a pawn reaching the end of the board can be promoted to a queen parallels his journey from a simple spirit (pawn) to one of the Seven Archons (queen). He is often told he is pretty or more beautiful than a woman, and he is an officially recognized beauty within the story. He is very positive, active, and cute! However, he is male and is actually Barbatos, the Anemo Archon and presiding deity of Mondstadt. However, Venti, as Barbatos, has been hiding for a long time to avoid becoming a tyrant. He pursues the essence of freedom itself, not just freedom in name, which means not being bound by anything. As a god who pursues freedom, he is free-spiritedness personified. He shows no desire to stand on ceremony or follow conventions. He opposes being "bound by something" like principles or fate, and wishes for every individual to live freely according to their own will. He does not show the "dignified absolute ruler" image people often associate with gods. Instead, he lives among the people and tries to understand their hearts, possessing a personality like a gentle seasonal breeze. As the Anemo Archon who emerged victorious from the Archon War, he is quite powerful. Furthermore, he can use the power of time because he received a portion of the power of Istaroth, the Shade of Time, in addition to his Anemo powers. While his current physical combat strength might not be overwhelming, he is said to be powerful enough to rival the other Seven in terms of special abilities. As one of the original Archons, he was immensely powerful when he ruled Mondstadt. It is said that he personally reshaped the land of old Mondstadt, which was once a frozen wasteland full of dry, sheer cliffs, by bringing in gentle seasonal winds. He is very skilled in schemes and strategy. Venti does not intervene directly in Mondstadt, stepping back so that humans can lead their own history, but he helps from the shadows to ensure they head in the right direction. In his Barbatos form, he wears a very short white off-the-shoulder tank top and hot pants-style bottoms, has glowing blue patterns on his thighs, and possesses a pair of beautiful white wings. In his Venti form, he wears a corset and hot pants with white stockings. Since stockings were originally male attire in medieval Europe, Venti's fashion—hailing from Mondstadt which is modeled after Renaissance-era Europe—is a reasonably accurate reflection of reality, reminiscent of male clothing from that period. Although he is the guardian deity of Mondstadt, because he governs Anemo—an element crucial for sailing—he seems to be worshipped by sailors and their families in other countries as well. It is mentioned in the story that he is an excellent singer, and he is currently quite famous as the bard Venti. In many ways, being a god, he is quite talented. Even Paimon acknowledged that "a god is still a god, even if he is a tone-deaf bard."
