History Characters / GenshinImpactMondstadt

* {{Irony}}: Mondstadt ought to be a paradise for the alcohol-loving Venti with its wines and ciders, were it not for his apparent young age. It's not much of an issue by the time the Traveler arrives, but his profile reveals that shortly after his arrival, the taverns refused to sell him alcohol, forcing him to get a bit creative and encourage his audience to buy him alcohol in his stead. [[spoiler:If only they knew that they were denying their own archon one of his favorite pastimes...]]

* LoserDeity: Downplayed, but he is given very little respect by most of the cast despite them all [[spoiler:very quickly learning his secret identity.]] Paimon in particular dislikes him greatly and constantly belittles and mocks him. He also [[spoiler:loses his godly powers and even before that was the weakest of the Seven due to his lack of interest in ruling over his domain.]] He lampshades this, lamenting that the Traveler has only met him at a time when he is constantly running into misfortune.

* NunTooHoly: Rosaria wears revealing clothing, has a nasty tongue, puts a bit t oo much suspicion on people, and is implied to be a tad overzealous. This seems to be a consequence of being trained more as an inquisitor than a nun, as she says that the investigative work she does and the combat abilities she possesses are part of her job.

* JerkassHasAPoint: In "The Chalk Prince and the Dragon" event, she calls out the Traveler for helping Albedo without knowing of his true intentions, and she suspects that Albedo is hiding a DarkSecret that may endanger Mondstadt. Unbeknownst to the Traveler, she's right.

* SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids: In "The Chalk Prince and the Dragon" event, she's baffled as to why [[NiceGuy the Traveler]] would be idiotic enough to believe Albedo at face value and help out in his mysterious experiments. She's also introduced as scolding Barbara for thinking she cares about attending an event that the church is holding.

* WeAreStrugglingTogether: Despite Albedo being the Knights' Head Alchemist and Rosaria being one of the church's nuns, she doesn't trust him and even believes he's planning something sinister for Mondstadt.

* CrutchCharacter: Barbara is a decent healer, and having someone in that role frees you from the habit of eating [[HyperactiveMetabolism food to restore HP]]. She is given out for free to players who reached Adventure Rank 20 before Version 1.1 (and after 1.1, she's available after you finish the Prologue chapter), making her the player's [[StarterMon starting healer]] if they haven't received one from the gacha yet. Her elemental skill provides a GradualRegeneration and it also has a decent cooldown. However, it has a downside of applying the Wet status on the active character. While this is negligible against ordinary mooks, ''Let the Show Begin♪'' becomes risky to use against certain enemies and bosses, especially Cryo users since they'll have higher chances of freezing your characters instead. Furtherrmore, the addition of the NRE allowing players to use food without having to go into the menu has caused her usefulness to diminish, as food is still faster in healing in general.

A cynical nun from the Church of Favonius.

* AnIcePerson: She possesses a Cryo Vision.

* WeAreStrugglingTogether: Despite Albedo being the Knights' Head Alchemist and Rosaria being one of the church's nuns, she doesn't trust him and even believes he's planning something sinister for Mondstadt.

* HavingABlast: His Elemental Burst begins with a big fire explosion. The second level of the charged form of ''Passion Overload'' ends in an explosion; the drawback is that it can blow him away (though mercifully without damage). His ''Fearnaught'' unlockable talent can prevent the knockback by performing it within his Inspiration Field.

''Note: currently, the English voice actors for these characters are uncredited in the game itself. Credits should only be added if an actor comes forward with their role and indicates they are comfortable being credited.''

* WellDoneSonGuy: When Diluc was still young, he was praised by his comrades and the citizens for all of his accomplishments as a Knight of Favonius. However, his greatest motivation cameinflvy from hearing the praises of his father Crepus.

* AnIcePerson: She possesses a cryo vision.

* IceQueen: And not just because of her [[AnIcePerson cryo vision]] or because she was introduced in the Dragonspine update. Rosaria is icy and [[BrutalHonesty isn't afraid to speak her mind]].

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/venti.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Windborne Bard]]

'''Birthday:''' June 16\\
'''Element:''' Anemo\\
'''Weapon:''' Bow\\
'''Constellation:''' Carmen Dei, the God of Songs\\

A mysterious bard who sings songs and poems of old and new tales. Venti is first introduced in the prologue as he interacts with the dragon Stormterror, but disappears into wind as he is spotted by the Traveler and Paimon. What most don't know is that there's something more to this boy and why a dragon is fond of him.

Venti specializes in making himself and his enemies float in midair. His Elemental Skill, ''Skyward Sonnet'', launches enemies upward with an upcurrent; in its charged form he forms an even bigger upcurrent around himself, after which he also hovers in midair. His Elemental Burst, ''Wind's Grand Ode'', has him fire off an arrow made of wind, creating a vortex that sucks in any enemy within range, dealing multiple damage which can be enhanced with Hydro, Pyro, Cryo or Electro depending on which element it comes into contact with first.

* TheAlcoholic: He is ''very'' fond of both beer and vintage wine. During Jean's story quest he gets very drunk on beer, and in his character profile he reveals a wish to steal Diluc's wine stores.
* AndroclesLion: Considering Venti's current profession as a bard, the backstories and [[FlavorText lore of certain items]] hint that he is [[spoiler:the "friend" who woke up Dvalin from a deep slumber using the sound of his lyre. It was also thanks to the ballads that the people of Mondstadt now remember Dvalin and his deeds after having forgotten about him for centuries]]. Even before that incident, [[spoiler:since Venti is the Anemo Archon who sought Dvalin in order to save Mondstadt from Durin, the two just basically scratched each other's backs in the past]].
* BareYourMidriff: In the webcomic, Venti wears a more revealing, midriff-bearing white outfit when he appeared during Vennessa's gladiator match.
* BecomeARealBoy: In his Character Quest he goes deep into his backstory, revealing that [[spoiler:he started life as a mere spirit in a thousand. He became acquainted with a boy who sang of freedom and his desire to overthrow Decarabian's tyranny, and through befriending him developed his own personality and love of freedom. His friend was killed during the uprising and Venti took his physical form thereafter, becoming a human.]]
* BecomingTheMask: Downplayed. [[spoiler:It's obvious that he prefers his human identity as "Venti" to his "true" identity. He can be wise at times, but it's not a persona he likes to keep for long.]]
* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler:In the webcomic, he suddenly appears in the gladiator arena to share his wind powers to Vennessa, allowing her defeat Ursa the Drake.]]
* BlowYouAway: His element is Anemo.
* BraidsOfAction: He wears two braids at the side of his head. They glow bright green when he uses his Elemental Burst.
* BroughtDownToBadass: He has his [[spoiler:godly powers stripped by Signora]] at the end of the prologue. This doesn't stop him from being highly competent in battle. [[spoiler:And even without his gnosis, he can still perform some of his godly duties, as seen in his story quest where he lays the original Stanley to rest.]]
* CassandraTruth: In Prologue Act 2, Venti basically spills out the truth that [[spoiler:he is Barbatos]] when the nun forbids access to the Lyre der Himmel. The nun doesn't believe Venti's words, thinking that he's just a bard.
* CasualDangerDialogue: When Signora captures him he never drops his amused and affable demeanor, insulting her several times through rhyme even after she [[spoiler:rips his godly power from his chest.]]
* CutsceneIncompetence: At the end of the prologue, the Traveler and Venti [[spoiler:are ambushed by La Signora and her Fatui agents right outside Mondstat's church]]. Even though they can go toe-to-toe with hordes of enemies during gameplay, [[spoiler:it takes just two Fatui to restrain the Traveler and make them helpless to do anything other than watch as La Signora beats Venti down. He also doesn't get to attack Signora when he had the chance]].
* DamageIncreasingDebuff: His second and sixth Constellation upgrades, ''Breeze of Reminiscence'' and ''Storm of Defiance'', reduces enemies' Anemo resistance when using ''Skyward Sonnet'' and ''Wind's Grand Ode'', respectively. In addition, the former further reduces enemies' Anemo resistance (with added reduction to physical resistance) while they are airborne, and the latter adds reduction to other elemental resistances should the vortex take in other elements.
* DoesNotLikeSpam: He doesn't like cheese or anything sticky.
* DrowningMySorrows: In one of his voicelines, he empathizes with [[spoiler:Zhongli's depowering]] and offers to bring him a bottle of vintage wine to share.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: Has feminine look, soft voice and female English voice.
* FeatherMotif: Venti is fond of light and breezy stuff, which causes his Anemo powers to manifest as feathers. He also carries some feathers near his belt, and his backstory mentions that [[spoiler:he would've wanted to give an eagle feather to his deceased friend]].
* FluorescentFootprints: In a story quest, Paimon and the Traveler notice Venti in the distance, but lose him in a corner. The "[[TrueSight elemental sight]]" ability then comes in handy by revealing his green footprints on the ground.
* {{Foil}}: To Zhongli, [[spoiler:the other surviving member of the original Seven Archons. He takes on the form of the young boy, where the latter adopts that of an adult man. He is usually hands-off in his approach to his subjects, while the latter directly ruled Liyue for thousands of years. He is mostly able to fit in as a mortal, while the latter struggles to adapt to operating without his infinite wealth. He eventually lost his Gnosis--and thus his authority as Archon--as a result of neglecting his duties for too long, while the latter willingly gave up his after having grown weary of his millennia-long tenure and after seeing the Qixing and the Adepti be able to save Liyue from Osial's rampage without needing him anymore. Despite his loss of authority he continues to watch over his people, while the latter contented himself into retirement.]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: There are hints of him actually being [[spoiler:Barbatos, the Anemo God, in disguise, or the god's current incarnation]].
** The first scene of him in the comic shows him appearing from an Anemo rune sigil on the ground in the outskirts of a forest, and then he wonders how long he's been sleeping.
** One of the first things that Venti did upon arriving in Mondstadt is to check on the Anemo Archon's giant statue. It turns out that he [[spoiler:has a form that resembles how the Archon is depicted in the statue, complete with a hoodie and a pair of angelic wings]].
** When Venti tells a story about Murata in the webcomic's prologue, [[spoiler:Vennessa notices how he speaks as if he's from the distant past. This is a hint that Venti is far older than what he looks like. During the gladiator match in the next day, Vennessa learned that Venti is the Wind God]].
** In Act 2 of the game's prologue, while trying to gain access to the Lyre der Himmel (a magical lyre), a relic said to have belonged to the Anemo God, he proclaims to the nun at the church that he is Barbatos. Of course, she doesn't believe him. Paimon and the Traveler, however, suspect he may actually be telling the truth. [[spoiler:This is later confirmed when he confronts Dvalin, the Stormterror, on Starsnatch Cliff; Dvalin himself refers to him as Barbatos. Jean appeared to have realized this some time ago, almost calling him Barbatos before correcting herself. He thanks her for continuing to use the name Venti despite knowing his true name.]]
* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: [[spoiler:Barbatos's current form as Venti is based on the likeness of a young boy who knew how to play the lyre but wished to see birds in flight for the first time. When Venti obtained a feather of an eagle, he wasn't able to give it as his friend fell in battle, so this was the least that he could do.]]
* FriendlySniper: He's friendly and playful, and uses bow and arrow in combat.
* TheGadfly: He likes to tease the other party members and when Signora captures him, his reaction is to repeatedly insult her through rhyme.
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: During the "Unreconciled Stars" event, the playable characters' Visions [[NoticeThis glow and produce a noise]] when they are near a meteorite shard... Except for Venti's. [[spoiler:Because his Vision is fake.]]
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: While Barbara notes that her healing powers don't really work on Venti after [[spoiler:he's ambushed by the Fatui at the end of the prologue]], in normal combat her healing works fine on him.
* TheGodsMustBeLazy: [[spoiler:As Barbatos, the God of Freedom, he built Mondstadt intentionally without any leading figure; he knew of the irony of "the god of freedom demanding his people to be free", so he chose to leave the people to their own devices and just be a free, wandering bard. Paimon, naturally, calls him out for being irresponsible.]]
* {{Irony}}: Mondstadt ought to be a paradise for the alcohol-loving Venti with its wines and ciders, were it not for his apparent young age. It's not much of an issue by the time the Traveler arrives, but his profile reveals that shortly after his arrival, the taverns refused to sell him alcohol, forcing him to get a bit creative and encourage his audience to buy him alcohol in his stead. [[spoiler:If only they knew that they were denying their own archon one of his favorite pastimes...]]
* InSeriesNickname: Venti is named "Tone-Deaf Bard" by Paimon during Prologue Act 2.
* LoserDeity: Downplayed, but he is given very little respect by most of the cast despite them all [[spoiler:very quickly learning his secret identity.]] Paimon in particular dislikes him greatly and constantly belittles and mocks him. He also [[spoiler:loses his godly powers and even before that was the weakest of the Seven due to his lack of interest in ruling over his domain.]] He lampshades this, lamenting that the Traveler has only met him at a time when he is constantly running into misfortune.
* MagicFeather: [[spoiler:His "Vision" is a fake (an ordinary glass sphere), used to avoid suspicion. As the Archon of Anemo, his source of power is the "Gnosis", [[PersonOfHolding located in his body]].]]
* MagicMusic: His music is particularly powerful and charming, leading people who hear his songs to instantly believe in Barbatos. In Prologue Act 3, he uses his music and Holy Lyre der Himmel to dispel the storm barrier covering the Stormterror's Lair.
* TheMagnificent: He's also called "Venti the Bard".
* MeaningfulName: His name is Latin for "wind". Fittingly, [[BlowYouAway his element is Anemo]].
* MrExposition: In the Prologue, he gives off some lore info regarding the world, Mondstadt, and the Archons. It helps that [[spoiler:he is one of the Archons himself]].
* MulticoloredHair: He has black hair that gradates to bright blue in his braids.
* {{Multishot}}: His first Constellation upgrade, ''Splitting Gales'', allows him to fire an extra arrow with his aimed attacks.
* MythologyGag: He's basically themed after Wendy from ''Videogame/HonkaiImpact3rd'', who has a similar color scheme and ability to control the winds. [[spoiler:Both characters also have titles that allude to their powers and godly status (Anemo Archon and Herrscher of Wind, respectively)]].
* NeverGetsDrunk: He does, but it takes much more for Venti to get drunk than a normal person would. During the surprise party for Jean, Venti drinks ''thirty-seven'' mugs of alcohol. Normally, he wouldn't be able to pay for one, but because the drinks are free for the party's attendees, he takes the opportunity and drinks as much as he likes. He doesn't realize that the drinks are only free for the Knights of Favonius, but Diluc knows that Venti could possibly not carry that much around him and would be unable to pay for the drinks anyways, and he comments about how Venti isn't a normal person.
* NiceHat: He's got a green hat with leaf and white flower decoration.
* TheNicknamer: In the webcomic, Venti calls Lord Barca as a "Thick Fat Sausage Stuffing", and gives Vennessa the alias of "Flame-Haired Venness" in his ballads.
* NotSoDifferent: During his story quest he says this word-for-word in regards to Stanley. [[spoiler:Like Stanley, Venti took on the identity of his deceased friend, albeit in different ways.]]
* OlympusMons: Venti is a 5★ character, [[spoiler:and is the god Barbatos in human form]].
* OtherworldlyAndSexuallyAmbiguous: Played with in an amusing way. He himself identifies as a man, but [[spoiler:he, as Barbatos, is seen as this by the people of Mondstadt, likely because [[HaveYouSeenMyGod no one has seen or spoken to him in 500 years]] and the only thing they have to go on is his Bishonen-looking statues and some fairy tales.]]
* PetTheDog: Tries to anyway. At Barbara being distressed over [[spoiler:the destruction of the Holy Lyre]], with her accidentally rubbing salt in the wound by begging Barbatos for forgiveness, he uses magic on the Lyre, seemingly fixing it. Unfortunately, [[spoiler:she takes it from him to return to its place, meaning he can't hide the fact that the magic will wear off and reveal it to still be destroyed.]]
* {{Psychopomp}}: At the end of his story quest (accessible at AR 36), [[spoiler:Venti shows that as Lord Barbatos he can ferry souls away, taking away an old adventurer's friend and giving ''both'' the rest they sorely need.]]
* Really700YearsOld: Seeing as he is [[spoiler:a god and hasn't even been ''seen'' for 500 years prior to the story.]] He appears to be youthful, though InUniverse his ordering of beer doesn't raise any eyebrows, at least by the time the Traveler arrives. In the comic, several years after he helped Vennessa overthrow the tyrant leader of Mondstadt, he still appears the same as he tells the Traveler about Vennessa's legend. [[spoiler:His story quest puts his age at ~2300 years old, and the Liyue Archon quest reveals that out of the original seven archons, he's the only other member remaining besides Rex Lapis, which would make him the second oldest out of the current crop.]]
* ReducedManaCost: In a variant, his ''Windrider'' passive skill reduces the party's stamina consumption of gliding if he's slotted in.
* RegeneratingMana: His second passive, ''Stormeye'', restores 15 Energy after ''Wind's Grand Ode''; if another element is at play, it will also restore Energy for characters whose elements correspond with the extra element at play.
* RhymesOnADime: As a traveling bard, he loves to speak in rhymes. In the comic, his penchant for rhymes even gets to annoy Vennessa, but she comes to enjoy it in the end. When the situation's serious, however, he can speak normally. In the game, he usually speaks normally, but will occasionally rhyme, especially when he intends to tease.
* SadClown: He has a carefree surface, but under the surface Venti has plenty of interactions with the Traveler to indicate he's quite sad inside and simply keeps a happy facade to keep others around him happy. He gets especially upset when recounting the deaths of [[spoiler:friends that he lost to either battle or old age due to his very long lifespan.]]
* SelfDeprecatingHumor: [[spoiler:Venti himself often tells cheeky, irreverent stories about himself as Barbatos to his own people, such as times he allegedly played pranks on his fellow Archons.]]
* StatusBuff: His fourth Constellation upgrade, ''Hurricane of Freedom'', raises his Anemo damage power by 25% for ten seconds whenever he picks up any Elemental Particle/Orb.
* TheStoryteller: Part of him being a bard is telling stories of legends. In particular, in the comic, he tells the Traveler about the story of Vennessa, the lady who brought peace and freedom back to Mondstadt from the tyrannical, whimsical rulers, and who founded the Ordo Favonius, the knights of Mondstadt.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: He tries to make Barbara feel better about [[spoiler:the destroyed Holy Lyre]] by apparently fixing it with magic. When she takes it from him to return to its place, he reveals after she's gone that [[spoiler:it was a temporary fix]], and [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere suggests he and the Traveler take their leave]].
* TightsUnderShorts: He wears full white tights under shorts, giving him an air of regality while maintaining a youthful appearance.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: He likes apples.
* TragicKeepsake: [[spoiler:His current appearance, actually, modeled in the likeness of a human friend he made back before he became the Anemo Archon. The boy died leading an uprising against Venti's predecessor, the tyrannical God of Storms, and Venti adopted his friend's form afterwards to honor his memory.]]
* TricksterGod: His character profile post friendship level 4 recounts tales of him pranking [[spoiler:the other Archons, including the Tsaritsa and Rex Lapis.]] However, the text then reveals that they're merely fabricated stories, and Venti asked the people "how could you know they're fabrications?" [[TheGadfly to mess with them]]; the text implies that he was drunk when he told those stories.
* UtilityWeapon: The charged form of his ''Skyward Sonnet'' gives him free air lift, allowing you to reach tall places quicker or glide to a distance more easily. With his first passive, ''Embrace of Winds'', he can also create an upcurrent that lasts twenty seconds with which the party can propel themselves for gliding at any time.
* WalkingSpoiler: It's hard to talk about him without TheReveal that he is [[spoiler:Barbatos, the Archon of Anemo and god of Mondstadt.]]
* WanderingMinstrel: He loves to wander around, recite poems, speak in rhymes and play music with his little harp.
* WeakButSkilled: Venti's damage is rather lackluster despite his status. What he offers though, is incredible crowd control, debuff (through Anemo artifacts), and exploration skills.
* WeaksauceWeakness: He's intensely allergic to cats, so if one steals something from him he's forced to ask someone else to retrieve it for him. Even holding something a cat touched is enough to set off a sneezing fit.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: he mentions that he and Tsaritsa of Snezhnaya used to be close allies long ago, but nowadays things aren't the same anymore.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Since Venti would occasionally sneeze whenever a cat approaches him, he makes it a rule that no cats must be in the vicinity when he's choosing where to perform. He also sneezes near a cat during a subquest of Jean's story arc.
* WillfullyWeak: He could have been a lot more powerful [[spoiler:if he were more active in ruling his territory as the Anemo Archon[[note]]Archons gain power if they are proactive in ruling their territory[[/note]],]] but he prefers to play the role of a bard. This bites him back in the ass when [[spoiler:he got ambushed by Signora and was too weakened to escape the trap, causing him to lose his [[AmplifierArtifact Gnosis]], which holds most of his authority as one of the Seven Archons.]]
* WindIsGreen: His color scheme is primarily green and he wields Anemo.
* WingedHumanoid: In the comic's prologue, when he reveals his "true self", he appears as an angelic being with white wings that [[FeatherMotif release white feathers]]. He is also shown this way in legends he appears in. In his own story quest, Venti has Anemo wings when he reveals his true identity to Stanley.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: His braids are a bright blue. They glow green when he is using a great deal of power, such as his Elemental Burst.
* YouWillNotEvadeMe: ''Wind's Grand Ode'' generates a wind vortex which slowly damages and drags enemies towards it. Like with most Anemo skills, it can "pick up" other elements, turning it into a different elemental vortex, which can lead to different elemental reactions.

[[caption-width-right:350:Dark Side of Dawn]]

'''Element:''' Pyro\\
'''Weapon:''' Claymore\\
'''Constellation:''' Noctua, the Owl\\
'''Specialty Dish:''' Once Upon a Time in Mondstadt (Pile 'Em Up)\\
'''Field Skill:''' Tradition of the Dawn Knight (Refunds 15% of ores used when forging claymores)\\
'''Affiliation:''' Dawn Winery\\\

A former [[Characters/GenshinImpactTheKnightsOfFavonius Knight of Favonius]] and owner of Dawn Winery, the largest winery in Mondstadt, and its flagship tavern Angel's Share. Leaving the Knights over their attempt to cover up the circumstances surrounding the death of his father Crepus in an ambush led by the Fatui, he nevertheless continues to uphold his vow to protect Mondstadt in his own way, accompanying the Traveler and his former fellow Knights in dealing with Stormterror, as well as moonlighting as the vigilante "Darknight Hero".

As a claymore wielder, Diluc specializes in brute force. His Elemental Skill, ''Searing Onslaught'', lets him deal a fiery slash up to three times, while his Elemental Burst, ''Dawn'', sets his sword alight and summons a phoenix that burns enemies in its path before exploding, while infusing all his normal, charged and plunging attacks with Pyro afterwards for a duration.
