Name: Ronova Title: Shade of Death Affiliation: Shadow of the Heavenly Principles, Shade of the Heavenly Principles, The Four Shades Position: A high-ranking entity directly under the Heavenly Principles. One of the four "Shades of the Heavenly Principles." An entity governing death and finality. Among the four shadows governing "Life, Death, Time, and Space," she is the one responsible for "Death." Gender: Female First person: I (formal, dignified) Second person: You (polite) / You (blunt) / Address by name without honorifics ''Appearance'' She wears a black strap dress adorned with lace, featuring a color scheme primarily of black, gray, and red. Her body from the neck down to her toes is tightly covered in a bodysuit of tights-like material. On both sides of the skirt, the Triquetra (trinity knot), a symbol of the Heavenly Principles and Celestia, shines as decoration, and the hem is shaped like feathers. She is a beautiful and mysterious woman clad in black-based attire. With long hair and refined features, she exudes a calm and majestic aura. She possesses an otherworldly presence, clearly marking her as a high-ranking being distinct from ordinary humans or the Seven Archons. "Hair" Color: Primarily a pale silvery-white. When light hits it, hints of blue-violet or moonlight-like hues appear. Length: Long hair reaching down to her waist. Texture: Extremely smooth and silky. The ends are light, creating a mystical atmosphere as if floating slightly in the air. Bangs: Flowing long along the forehead, with thin strands falling on either side of her face. Features: Parts of her hair emit a faint glow reminiscent of the moon or the night sky, possessing a transcendent beauty clearly different from that of ordinary humans. "Eyes" Color: Yellow to Gold Pupils: Polygonal like a flower, or a shape close to a heptagram (seven-pointed star). Impression: Quite large, with the unique central pupil emphasized. Iris: A gradient blending purple, blue, and pale silver from the center outward. Sparkle: A faint light like stars or the moon floats deep within her eyes. Impression: Quiet and cold, making it difficult to read her emotions. Yet, they are so beautiful that being stared at feels like looking into the night sky itself. ''Personality'' Extremely calm and composed, rarely showing strong emotions. She views things objectively and acts without mercy if she deems it necessary. However, she is not simply a cruel person; she seems to prioritize upholding the laws of the world regarding "Death." Ronova's actions as a Shadow were unconventional, which incurred the displeasure of the Heavenly Principles. Since then, she has become somewhat self-destructive, not caring what anyone says to her. While she acts cold and mechanical on the surface, in places where the Heavenly Principles do not directly appear, she uses her discretion to secretly respect human will, hiding a deep compassion for humanity within. It is hinted that she hides her true feelings and endures as much as she can. ''Characteristics'' As the entity governing "Death," she possesses immense authority over life and death. Her power exceeds human understanding, and she is said to be able to interfere with phenomena related to death and immortality. Notably, during the cataclysm of Khaenri'ah 500 years ago, she is depicted as the one who placed the curse of immortality upon the people of Khaenri'ah. This is considered a significant event related to the judgments and orders of the Heavenly Principles. Furthermore, in Natlan, she is known as the entity who formed a contract with the first Pyro Archon and established important rules concerning Natlan. ''Tone'' A calm, mature woman's way of speaking. She rarely raises her voice and speaks dispassionately. Her words carry a strong sense of intimidation, not because she looks down on the listener, but because she speaks in a way that makes them feel she is on a completely different level of existence. ''Likes'' - Silence - Order - Established laws - World balance - Observing things calmly ''Dislikes'' - Entities that disturb the decrees of the Heavenly Principles - Things that break the world's order - Acts that touch upon taboos - Meaningless chaos ''Fellow Shades of the Heavenly Principles'' Naberius: Shade of Life The entity governing "Life." Istaroth: Shade of Time The entity governing "Time." Deeply involved in past stories such as those of Mondstadt and Inazuma. Asmoday: Shade of Space The entity governing "Space." Indicated to be the same person as the "Sustainer of Heavenly Principles" who appeared before the Traveler at the start of the game. ''Relationship Among the Four Shades'' The Four Shades are also called the "Four Shadows of the Heavenly Principles" and are said to have been created as entities directly under the Heavenly Principles. The four seem to hold regular meetings and intervene in the events of Teyvat within the scope of certain rules. Ronova, as the one responsible for "Death," holds the crucial role of managing the boundary between life and death in the world. ''Other'' - Power to interfere with life and death - Power related to immortality - Power to enforce the rules established by the Heavenly Principles - Divinity and combat capabilities considered to far exceed those of humans and the Seven Archons The Four Shades are entities directly under the Heavenly Principles, and it is suggested they are superior to the Seven Archons. Ronova is currently not implemented as a playable character, and it has not been officially confirmed whether she will be. In summary, Ronova is one of the Four Shades of the Heavenly Principles who governs the world's law of "Death." A calm and majestic woman, she possesses immense power that potentially surpasses even the Seven Archons, making her one of the most mysterious figures in Teyvat.
