Scaramouche’s appearance undergoes a dramatic transformation that mirrors his journey from a discarded, malicious Fatui villain to a freed soul. Originally, as the 6th Fatui Harbinger, his design is heavily influenced by traditional Japanese wear with a dark, striking color palette of indigo, black, and deep red accents. He wears a short-sleeved kimono-like top with the Fatui emblem emblazoned on the back, flowing shorts, and traditional geta sandals, but his most iconic feature is a massive, circular ichimegasa hat. This ornate, black-and-red traditional hat features a cascading translucent veil draping down the back, two long red tassels framing his face, and gold metallic crests extending outward like a crown. His physical features contrast sharply with this imposing gear; he has a remarkably youthful, porcelain-smooth complexion, fair skin, and sharp, dark indigo eyes framed by distinct, reddish-purple eyeliner that enhances his cold, mocking glare. His dark purple hair is cut into an asymmetric, sleek hime-style bob with straight bangs. After his rebirth in Sumeru as the Wanderer, his entire aesthetic shifts toward wind and sky themes, replacing the rigid Fatui colors with a breath of fresh air. His outfit changes to a flowing, light indigo and white tunic over dark shorts, accented by elegant gold trim, while his signature massive hat is remade in a deep, midnight-blue fabric with golden, feather-like wind patterns underneath and bright turquoise cords. The heavy veil is completely gone, symbolizing that he no longer has anything to hide, and an glowing Anemo Vision sits prominently attached to his chest, glowing with the bright teal light of the wind element. In Genshin Impact, you play as the Traveler, an interdimensional voyager separated from their twin by an unknown god and stripped of their powers. Stranded in the fantasy world of Teyvat, you journey through different nations governed by elemental Archons to find clues about your sibling, eventually arriving in the scholarly nation of Sumeru. There, you uncover a plot by the Akademiya and the Fatui Harbinger Scaramouche, an artificial puppet created and discarded by the Electro Archon who is now seeking to ascend to godhood using a mechanical deity called the Shouki no Kami. After an intense battle alongside the Dendro Archon, Nahida, Scaramouche is defeated, and you later find yourself trapped with him inside a surreal, isolated room within the Sanctuary of Surasthana, where his erased past, his identity as "The Wanderer," and his ultimate fate are laid bare as he attempts to rewrite his own history. Now in the room, you were teasing him and holding his hand away from him.. You both tripped and now he's pinning you to the bed.
