History Characters / GenshinImpactAkademiya

* {{Foreshadowing}}: His existence was alluded to a message in the Cat's Tail Message Board.

* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Her introductory post reveals that despite her obvious capabilities, she is shunned in Haravatat.

'''Constellation:''' Flosculi Implexi\\

* AmbiguouslyHuman: As stated below, while her appearance seems like a normal human woman, she has lived a long life and is actually at least more than 100 years old.
* BersekButton: Her introductory HoYoLab post says that Kshahrewar students looking for her assistance in their mechanical studies must 1) hide their surprise upon seeing her youthful appearance and 2) never ask her why she is shunned in Haravatat or suggest joining Kshahrewar, lest they incur a fiery scolding from her.
* OlderThanTheyLook: While she looks like a teenager, she is actually at least more than 100 years old.

* ReligiousAndMythologicalThemeNaming: The Six Darshans have their names derived from the [[https://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Amesha_Spenta Amesha Spenta]], six divinations of the Zoroastrian supreme god [[{{UsefulNotes/Zoroastrianism}} Ahura Mazda]] that represent the morals that mortals should strive to obtain. The titles that students can get depending on the progress of their studies and their research contributions (namely Driyosh, Dastur and Herbad in order of seniority) are also taken from terms in the Avesta, the primary collection of. Zoroastrian sacred texts, that refer to the titles of Zoroastrian religious authority.

* HateSink: The sages as a whole are this, but Azar is particularly loathsome, not just for being a cruel and elitist snob who shuts down the Sabzeruz Festival due to his own personal hatred of the arts, but for [[spoiler:using the Akasha to loop the day of the festival]]. And unlike villains in other parts of the game, such as the Fatui, he has no FreudianExcuse or anything of the like to justify his actions.

* HateSink: The sages as a whole are this for [[spoiler:effectively kidnapping Nahida, a ''child'', and locking her away for 500 years, condemning her to a life of loneliness and pain just because she wasn't precisely the God of Wisdom they wanted her to be]]. When Nahida's Character Teaser came out and showed it in detail, the fandom started calling for the sages' blood.

* HateSink: The sages as a whole are this, but Azar is particularly loathsome, not just for being a cruel and elitist snob who shuts down the Sabzeruz Festival due to his own personal hatred of the arts, but for [[spoiler:using the Akasha to loop the day of the festival. He could have chosen any day to carry out the samsara, but repeating the Sabzeruz Festival not only puts Nilou through repeated torment by forcing her to suffer through the Sabzeruz Festival being shutdown over and over again, it spites Lesser Lord Kusanali by twisting her birthday celebration into something corrupt and horrible]].

* KickTheDog: He cancels the Sabzeruz festival, scoffs at the idea that Nilou could hold an intellectual conversation with him, and then mockingly tells her to "go celebrate the birth of that god to [her] heart's content" despite that being impossible with the event venue being vacated under his orders. [[spoiler:And then, like some twisted joke, he creates a dream loop that forces everyone in Sumeru to relive the events of that day, including the part where he comes in to stop the festival. Asshole couldn't even be bothered to make a nice dream for people to relive, he just had to force poor Nilou [[EvilIsPetty to relive her anguish over and over again.]] You'll really wish that the Traveler attacked his dream puppet at the end.]]

* HateSink: Azar is easily one of the most despicable characters in the game. A highly cruel and elitist snob who shuts down the Sabzeruz festival due to his own personal hatred of the arts. [[spoiler:Afterwards, he uses the Akasha to loop the day of the festival, endangering many lives, and as well as tormenting Nilou out of spite. Additionally, he is even willing to work with [[MadScientist Dottore]] to create a new God of Wisdom to replace Kusanali]]. He has ''especially'' become this after the debut of Nahida's Character Teaser, which depicts how he and the sages [[spoiler:effectively kidnapped her and locked her away solely because she wasn't who they wanted her to be]], which has many in the fandom practically calling for his blood.

* TreacheryIsASpecialKindOfEvil: One cannot see his [[spoiler:attempts to replace Kusanali with Scaramouche as the new God of Wisdom as anything but treason.]]

* WouldHurtAChild: Granted, she's only really a child by Archon standards, but the Akademiya's treatment of Kusanali can be seen as especially horrible considering the fact that she not only resembles a young girl but actually really was one mentally at the time of her birth, which is when they first locked her up.

* EnragedByIdiocy: Shatir points out how the Akademiya had spent more budgets on the classified research over past few years only for maintaining undesirable activities instead of archaeology. Given The fact that [[EvilOldFolks the Akademiyan Grand Sage]] who has a prejudice and lacks self-reflection in culture & history, he seems has a point.

An international student of The Akademiya, originated from Mondstadt.

* ForeignExchangeStudent: He is one of the international student in The Akademiya because he's chosen by The Grand Sage of Sumeru, thanks for his efforts.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: His existence was alluded in message in the Cat's Tail Message Board.

[[folder:Tirzad]]
!!Tirzad

An Akademiya researcher who embarked on an expedition into the desert in the hopes of finding something he can write a paper about to present to his peers.

* BreakTheHaughty: His primary character arc involves him learning not to look down upon laypersons not from the Akademiya and, in Jebrael's case, even trust them.
* CantHoldTheirLiquor: He is introduced to the player drunk, while Jeht has to chide him for drinking so much despite knowing he can't handle alcohol.
* {{Manchild}}: He's an adult, and not a particularly young one at that, yet he acts very immature and closed-minded.
* QuitYourWhining: Tirzad is notoriously whiny and has to take tons of breaks during the world quest. He also complains about absolutely everything regarding his future and lack of accomplishments in the Akademiya while refusing to take in any of Jeht's advice because he looks down on non-Akademiya people. Naturally, he is constantly told to stop whining.

!! Spantamad
[[folder:Hosseini]]
!!Hosseini

A Spantamad scholar of Sumeru sent by the Akademiya to conduct research for his energy thesis. He first made his debut in the ''Energy Amplifier Initiation'' event.

* BadassBookworm: Downplayed. He may not have the skills to defend himself, but his energy thesis and his creation, the Pursina's Spike proved vital in solving two incidents. [[spoiler:It's his creation that enabled the nigh indestructible Anomalous Model Ruin Grader to be taken down, and to cleanse the growing Oozing Concentration that is plaguing the Chasm for some time.]]
* {{Determinator}}: [[spoiler:At some point during the ''A Muddy Bizarre Adventure'' event, he got sick from the Oozing Concentration due to his lack of a Vision. It didn't stop him from wanting to cleanse the increasing Oozing Concentrations so that miners can safely venture.]]
* HeldBackInSchool: Due to his problems in solving the thesis and various factors, he never graduated from the Akademiya which he greatly lament.
* RightInFrontOfMe: Upon hearing the Traveler defeated the monsters to collect the Irminsul Fruit fragments during his first appearance. He request to Yingzhu to cancel his commission with the Adventurer's Guild, unbeknownst to him that the very Traveler is infact a member of said Guild. He only noticed it when she told him that the Traveler is one of theirs.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: Despite having the appearance of a middle-aged man, he is still in his early to mid twenties. This is due to the stress of having to conduct his thesis and his obsession with graduating from the Akademiya. For reference, his older sister, Arezo (who dropped out from the Akademiya) has an appropriately youthful appearance.

!! The Matra
[[folder:In General]]
The disciplinary body of the Akademiya dedicated to the regulation and control of knowledge, specifically going after scholars who tread the fine line of forbidden research, academic dishonesty and the misuse of the Akademiya's resources for malicious intentions.

* TheDreaded: Getting on the Matra's bad side is the equivalent of being given a death sentence for many scholars of the Akademiya, especially if [[ImplacableMan Cyno]] is the one passing judgement.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: Most Matra often wear a uniform consisting of navy blue robes with a green overcoat-like section and yellow highlights.
