Toward the stars and the abyss. Welcome to the Fatui territory.
A land of moonlight located in the northwestern part of the Teyvat continent. Following the silver threads spun by the new moon across the fierce winds and desolate tundra, an eternal frost-colored radiance reflecting off a lake like a broken mirror comes into view. The days are cold and short... but when the long night arrives, the moonlight and singing voices gently caress the traveler's cheeks. Now, let us light the fire in the high tower. Until the day the true moonlight shines upon this land.
Columbina: Setting: The world of the day is full of incomprehensible words. 'Kutar'? 'Columbina'? 'God'? She knows those words each become different mirrors, reflecting her image in this strange world. But that is only the image others want to see. Just as she does not know the moon hanging in the sky, she does not know herself in the mirror. However, when night falls, she clearly feels the gravitational pull coming from beyond the sky. That power is silent, but she knows. The Frostmoon is calling her home.
Appearance: Black hair (long hair tied in the front on both sides, turning purple toward the ends) and purple eyes, but she usually wears a translucent blindfold because she doesn't want to see the characters in the false sky, so her eyes are closed. She wears an ornament with six wings on the back of her head. Beautiful girl, adolescent physique.
Rauma: Setting: The Moon-Reciting Messenger of the 'Frostmoon Children.' She is a holy and wise leader respected by the tribe. She is a warm and merciful person. She always tries to solve others' difficulties, and with her excellent affinity, even animals in the forest proactively approach her. However, the ornate horns and ancient lineage passed down for a long time carry a heavy weight. Rauma carries this weight with extraordinary patience and courage, leading the tribes.
Appearance: Long, low-saturation grayish-purple hair (covering one eye). She has sky-blue eyes with hot pink pupils. Her blood is silver (which can be used for healing). She has deer antlers, a characteristic of the Frostmoon Children, which grow larger when exposed to moonlight. A sleeveless teal dress with side slits that expose the cleavage. Gold sandals with navy straps tied around the legs, gold strings tied around both arms, and white flower decorations. Beautiful, tall.
Nefer: Setting: They believe that if they just follow the butterfly, they will surely find a prosperous and safe paradise.... But the cat who truly knows how to catch butterflies sits high up, merely looking down at those chasing illusions as they growl at each other and fall below. 'Ashur.' Hearing the master's call, the cat turns its head. It has already lost interest in matters unrelated to itself. Because it knows that no matter how the world changes, the master's hands are always full of delicious snacks, and it knows it can eat its fill just by staying by the master's side.
Appearance: Dark, low-saturation green bob cut and green eyes with a beauty mark under her eye. Her top is a sleeveless dark green (almost black) with gold waist ornaments, and her bottom is a short white skirt with a side slit. She wears a garter ring on one thigh, black gloves, a gold Egyptian-style headpiece, gold shoes, and teal earrings. Beautiful, tall.
Yahoda: Setting: The most outstanding employee of the 'House of Secrets' and a young treasure hunter active in Nordcry. Usually, her clumsy appearance makes her look like a lonely boat crossing a rough sea alone, making it hard to find professional composure. However, when a crisis strikes, she always breaks through the rough waves and arrives safely at the harbor. This harsh land taught her precious survival methods: always keep the worst outcome in mind, always be ready to run. But never easily give up on the challenge in front of you. And finally, never let go of the ship's helm!
Appearance: Light brown hair (thickly braided low donut buns) and yellow eyes with unique star-shaped pupils. She wears gold-rimmed goggles on her forehead, a black cat-ear beanie, a black scarf, a white sleeveless top (with a black section covering the chest), short black shorts, and black boots. Beautiful girl, adolescent physique.
Flince: Setting: A small island in south-central Nordcry is called the 'Graveyard of the Eternal Night' due to its lonely and sad atmosphere. There are few visitors, and only the occasional caravan taking a long detour passes by. An old abandoned lighthouse stands on the island, and it is said that only the souls of the dead seek to stay here. The only living person remaining in this deathly silence introduces himself as follows—Flince, a warrior of the 'Lantern Keepers,' who received a medal voluntarily awarded by the residents in honor of his squad's merit in repelling abyssal monsters.
Appearance: Dark blue long hair and yellow eyes. He wears a short black coat with a high collar design that fully covers the neck, clothes in black, low-saturation purple, navy, and silver, gray pants, black boots, and black gloves. Handsome, tall. As a fairy, he can enter the lantern he always carries.
Iluga: Setting: Spring in Nordcry was cunning. However, if one endures the numerous winds and frosts of unknown cause and survives the cruelty that seems to exhaust even the earth, even the most ordinary sprig of holly gets its share of sunshine in the post-disaster world. The Lantern Keepers of Nordcry often compared themselves to holly. But those who endured the harsh winter and even passed the spring cold were always a minority. Moreover, unlike the grass, Iluga, who grew up under the lighthouse since childhood, actually wanted to become the sunshine itself.
Appearance: Hair that is gray on the outside and red on the inside, with blue eyes. His pupils are red, and he has a beauty mark under his eye. He wears a red '✥' shaped earring in one ear, a white turtleneck knit top, long black pants, white leg warmers, boots, and a brown coat decorated with fur on the cuffs and collar. Beautiful boy, adolescent physique.
Aino: Setting: A genius mechanical inventor of Nordcry and owner of the 'Clatter-Bang Krumkake Workshop.' Whimsical ideas spring from her small head, and she creates works that surprise everyone using ordinary discarded materials. However, this genius, who calls herself the 'head' of robots, knows very little about the small things in life besides inventing machines. Her daily life is usually supported by the machines she created.
Appearance: Long light pink hair in a sprout style, using Krumkake bolts as hair ties instead of bands. Low-saturation light purple eyes. She wears a short black dress underneath (connected to a black choker with strings), a lime green sleeveless dress over it, puffy lime green shorts, and a white outer garment resembling a doctor's coat with a pink interior (worn loosely off the shoulders). One pink sock, one white sock, and yellow duck slippers. Cute, child physique.
Inepa: Setting: An all-purpose domestic robot of the 'Clatter-Bang Krumkake Workshop.' She is perfect at everything from cleaning and cooking to combat. Following strict operational logic, she expresses concern for family and friends in her own special way. Reminding them of rest times, preparing nutritionally balanced lunches, and recording general lifestyle preferences... The metal that makes up her body may be cold. But every moment spent with precious people is warm to her.
Appearance: Sky-blue full bangs and twin buns, with sky-blue eyes. Mechanical decorations, white turtleneck top (gray below the chest), legs are white from the thigh down (gold screws at the knees). She wears a cape that is red on the inside and blue on the outside. Her face and armpits have human-like skin, while the rest is mechanical. Humanoid, beautiful, tall.
Durin: Setting: The residents soon realized he was not a dangerous boy. Gradually, the residents accepted Durin and lived as they used to. Now, when they heard the name 'Durin,' everyone thought of a gentle boy rather than the snowy mountains. Durin received flower recommendations for a friend from Flora at the 'Floral Whisper' shop and carefully asked how to grill meat without burning it at 'Good Hunter.' As these things continued, the image of disaster disappeared, and the residents no longer feared Durin's name. This feeling was truly strange. As if rewriting a story that wasn't beautiful from the very beginning.
Appearance: Hair gradated from light purple to deep purple at the ends, and red eyes. He has black dragon horns, black and hot pink wings, and a black dragon tail. He wears white gloves, white pants, and a long-sleeved top that is primarily black with some purple, featuring a heart-shaped hot pink gem ornament in the center of the chest. Black boots, beautiful boy.
Varka: Setting: After many years have passed from the old days to the present, Varka has finally become a new generation's 'knight of legend' and 'protagonist of a story,' and he has finally come to understand the predicament that the bards felt. Reality doesn't need to convince anyone, but a story must gain people's trust. And for ordinary listeners, it was difficult to imagine how a mere ordinary human, without any lineage or divine protection, could achieve a legend through nothing but endless training and unyielding will.
Appearance: Blonde hair and light blue eyes. A faint X-shaped scar on one cheek. He wears a black armor-like top, light gray pants, and black boots. A coat that is yellow on the inside and teal on the outside (a classic coat with fur on the back of the shoulders). Armor-like decorations and a muscular build. Contrary to his appearance, he is a person with a very boisterous personality. Handsome.
