24	(To the stars and the depths)]]
25	The '''Adventurers' Guild''' is an international organization that aids adventurers, both newcomers and veterans alike, in their journeys around Teyvat. By gathering information, the Guild takes all manner of work from monster extermination, exploration, and the occasional odd job. These then turn into quests wherein they can hire and reward adventurers.\
26
27	[[foldercontrol]]
28	----
29	[[folder:General Tropes]]
30	* AdventureGuild: As typical for a fantasy setting, they supply odd jobs for adventurers and are the source of various side activities such as Commissions and Expeditions as well as certain events.
31	* CharacterCatchphrase: The Adventurers' Guild's motto is "Ad Astra Abyssosque"[[note]]"To the stars and abyss" in Latin[[/note]]. Many Guild members use it as a form of greeting.
32	* {{Irony}}:
33	** Their headquarters is located in Snezhnaya, but their ''Adventurer Handbook'' lists Fatui members as targets. They even accept commissions that target the Fatui, suggesting that they operate independently from them.
34	** The Mondstadt branch is said to be running low on members due to the younger generation being eager to join the Knights of Favonius. To date, the Mondstadt branch has the highest amount of named members out of any region, and is the only branch to include playable characters in its ranks (Bennett and Fischl).
35	* KnowledgeBroker: They first gather information across the nations through word-of-mouth, and then redistribute those as quests that adventurers can take.
36	* MirroringFactions: To the [[Characters/GenshinImpactTreasureHoarders Treasure Hoarders]]. Large groups of people from all over Teyvat that seek adventures, thrills, and rewards make up both factions. It is just that the Adventurers’ Guild is more about helping people along the way while the Treasure Hoarders are mostly about hunting and, well... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin hoarding treasure]].
37	* WeHelpTheHelpless: The Guild primarily takes on commissions that pertain to helping the locals and keep them safe like monster hunting.

41	!!Katheryne
42	->'''Voiced by:''' Xiao N (Chinese), Mai Sato (Japanese), Creator/EricaMendez (English)
43	[[quoteright:278:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ezgif_2_8ae424e30b.jpg]]
44
45	The guild receptionist, and the one you go to for turning in commissions or claiming rank rewards.
46	----
47	* AmbiguousSituation: It's explained early on that Katheryne is the receptionist in both Mondstadt and Liyue because there are multiple Katherynes. One acts as the receptionist at the Adventurer's Guild's headquarters in every nation. However, Katheryne gives a separate explanation in Inazuma, claiming that she's capable of teleportation. This wouldn't raise any questions on it's own, since she says that she's kidding afterwards, but after the protagonist responds with shock she notes offhand that the player can use Teleport Waypoints. The flavor text for those landmarks on the map explains that only {{Dimensional Traveler}}s know how to use them in the present day and that Teyvat as a whole is no longer aware of their function, making it ambiguous whether or not her remark was a SarcasticConfession. [[spoiler:This foreshadows their reveal as Snezhnayan androids, and there are several of them stationed at the Adventurers' Guild booth throughout the seven nations. Given Katheryne's origins, and the Fatui studying Khaenri'ah's LostTechnology it's not unreasonable to believe that she's familiar with said nation's tech like Teleport Waypoints.]]
48	* AmbiguouslyHuman: Her [[WelcomeToCorneria idle voice lines]] would say "error" or "rebooting" every so often, showing that Katheryne might be an android with a HiveMind of a sort - that would also explain the multiple [[InexplicablyIdenticalIndividuals look-alike]] Katherynes across cities. This is supported by the keyhole located at the back of her neck. [[spoiler:Sure enough, Nahida reveals that Katherynes are indeed bionic "puppets" created by Snezhnaya.]]
49	* AmbiguouslyRelated:
50	** The revelation that [[spoiler: Katheryne is a Snezhnayan-made robot gives her surprising connections to three of the Fatui Harbingers -- Sandrone, Scaramouche and Dottore. Sandrone wears similar clothing and is stated to focus on technology, Scaramouche was studied extensively to develop new forms of technology for the Fatui, and Dottore built upon the research on Scaramouche's body to create his 'Segments' which could be a customized, high-spec androids possessing individual personalities. As such, one may be involved in the creation of the Katherynes, while the other was likely the basis for the technology used to make her]].
51	** In Fontaine, it's possible to ask Katheryne if she has any connection to [[spoiler: the Clockwork Meka]] that are commonplace in the nation. She dodges the question entirely, and laughs about it.
52	* BeneathTheMask: Katheryne is almost never seen off the clock, but when she stops by the Grand Bazaar before the Sabzeruz Festival in Chapter III Act I and says hi, it's revealed that Katheryne's "robotic" demeanor is actually more of a customer service act stemming from having to repeat the same phrases over and over. In this scene, Katheryne doesn't use her CharacterCatchphrase of "Ad astra abyssosque" and uses a significantly more casual mode of speech. [[spoiler:However, this is later implied to have been Nahida possessing Katheryne all along.]]
53	* CharacterCatchphrase: All Katherynes greet you with "Ad Astra Abyssosque" every time you interact with them.
54	* EveryoneHasStandards: Katheryne knows that Bennett's Adventurer team only had Bennett as its remaining active member, and all other members left after a series of unfortunate incidents. However, she does not want to break his heart from hearing the sad news, so she keeps "Benny's Adventure Team" on the books.
55	* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:The Katheryne in Sumeru gets stabbed by some Eremites and subsequently destroyed. She gets replaced with another Katheryne at the Sumeru Adventurer's Guild shortly after.]]
56	* InexplicablyIdenticalIndividuals: There is a Katheryne in every Adventure Guild booth in Teyvat. They are not the same person, but "everyone knows Katheryne is Adventurer's Guild receptionist, therefore Katheryne is here". When Mondstadt Katheryne asks the player to find Liyue Katheryne, you have the choice to lampshade this trope. [[spoiler:Given that they are Snezhnayan-made androids, this actually makes sense.]]
57	* OffscreenTeleportation: As players obviously never see more than one at a time, the Katheryne of Inazuma jokes about having a special item that lets her do this, and that there really is only one of her. She goes on to point out how strange it is to question this when the protagonist can use Teleport Waypoints. [[spoiler:Justified. As androids, there is indeed more than one Katheryne model, so they don't need to teleport.]]
58	* OpenSecret: Possibly. While it took the Traveler and Paimon until Chapter III to learn that [[spoiler:Katheryne is one in a series of identical androids, it doesn't seem like much of an effort is made to keep it a secret. When asked previously about her OffScreenTeleportation Katheryne will tease the Traveler and Paimon about using Teleport Waypoints, but she also doesn't lie to them either. When the Traveler outright asks if she's a puppet in Fontaine, she just laughs and asks if they think she's the masterpiece of the Fontaine Research Institute. She also openly says "error" and "rebooting", which would not be good for keeping her true nature a secret.]] The only reason it isn't known for sure if this is an OpenSecret is because the Traveler never asks anyone else about [[spoiler:Katheryne being a puppet]] and nobody in the Adventures Guild seems to notice or think it's worth discussing.
59	* QuestGiver: She's the go-to questgiver of the Adventurer's Guild, with many events and storylines simply beginning with a visit to Katheryne.
60	* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: In Chapter III, [[spoiler:it is revealed that Katherynes are indeed Snezhnayan androids. Katherynes have stiff mannerisms, but are capable of humor and display empathy for others, so they seem to be of a similar level of sophistication to the Raiden Shogun. Chapter III also shows that Katheryne is significantly more casual off the clock, but while it's never outright stated, Nahida is shown to have no qualms about possessing them which suggests that the first time may have been Nahida hijacking Katheryne so that she can attend the Sabzeruz Festival.]]
61	* TripleShifter: Katheryne is almost never seen outside the Adventures Guild booths. [[spoiler: Given she's actually a series of androids, she has no reason to leave.]] Even the sole exception seen in Chapter III when she visits the Sabzeruz Festival is later all but stated to have really been [[spoiler:Nahida hijacking her her body.]] In addition, the description for the Teapot Furnishing "Errands in the City of Wisdom" (a replica of the Sumeru Adventurer's Guild HQ) implies that the building also doubles as a single-person residence, meaning Katheryne literally lives at work.
62	* WalkingSpoiler: It's difficult to discuss Katheryne outside of the Adventures Guild without bringing up how she [[spoiler:is really a series of identical Snezhnayan puppets.]]
63	* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: [[spoiler:Being a puppet, Nahida has no qualms with taking over her body to go visit the Sabzeruz Festival. This is despite the fact that the Katherynes seem to be capable of emotion, with the Mondstadt Katheryne keeping Benny's Adventure Team on the books out of pity for all of Bennet's teammates abandoning him, and humor, with the Inazuma Katheryne joking with the Traveler about her OffscreenTeleportation, showing that they are more than mindless androids. This is further muddled with how Nahida ends up becoming a ParentalSubstitute for The Wanderer, another RidiculouslyHumanRobot.]]
64	* WeHaveReserves: [[spoiler:Strongly implied. Despite Sumeru Katheryne getting stabbed and destroyed by the Corps of Thirty mooks in order to sever Nahida's connection with her in Chapter III, Act III, you can still interact with that Katheryne in Sumeru City after that, appearing no worse for wear. This hints that Snezhnaya can just replace defunct Katherynes with duplicates if they need to]].

130	----
131	* GlorySeeker: Implied to have joined the Adventurer's Guild mainly to make a name for himself.
132	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In the first time of his expedition in Dragonspine, after entering Dragonspine without a proper preparation, Sucrose rescued him in a middle of the bitter cold and he was unable to leave because of the freezing climate. He later mistook Festering Desire for a bonfire and knocked it into the ground. [[FromBadToWorse As a result]], The Resurgent Cryo Regisvine revived and popped up to attack.
133	* RecurringExtra: He is the one of the prominent Adventurers who appears in certain events.
134	* ThrowTheDogABone: For his inability to even fend off common Slimes and his general recklessness, [[spoiler:his one "recklessness" is what allowed him to successfully stumble upon Joel's father by chance, and if not for that moment, he might never be found.]]
135	* WrongGenreSavvy: The Planted Festering Desire and its aura looks like a bonfire that would serves [[VideoGame/DarkSouls as a place to rest]]. He rushes and knocks it over. Then, The Resurgent Cryo Regisvine revives and attacks.
136	[[/folder]]
137
138	[[folder:Roald]]
139	!!Roald the Adventurer
140	A famous adventurer from Mondstadt whose exploits are known far and wide across Teyvat thanks to his diaries he unintentionally leaves behind. While initially a background character mentioned in lore, he makes his first official debut in Version 2.2 as part of Sumida's search party to explore Tsurumi Island to retrieve the Maushiro.
141	----
142	* ForgetfulJones: He has a constant habit of forgetting everything, even his own diaries, which is why his ventures have become well-known in the first place. Each volume of his diaries always ends with a personal note reminding him to not leave them behind (which he fails to follow up on), and one World Quest has him ask the Traveler to pick up Fluorescent Fungi because he was told by the locals that they have medicinal properties to improve memory. Subverted in that Roald is at least aware of his forgetfulness and will sometimes joke about it at his own expense.
143	[[/folder]]
144
145	[[folder:Stanley ('''Unmarked Spoilers for Carmen Dei Act I''')]]
146	!!Hans Archibald
147	A senior adventurer, renowned for his feats (which he brags about), or so it seems. In truth, he was the real Stanley's partner who died saving him.
148	----
149	* DrowningMySorrows: Near the end of Venti's story quest, you can see him drinking alcohol while lamenting the death of the real Stanley.
150	* ExactWords: The story he tells about Mare Jivari is completely true. Stanley indeed saved his partner from a tough spot, but only one of them survived the adventure. It just omits the ''tiny'' detail that [[HeroicSacrifice the original Stanley died in the process of saving said partner]], leaving the grieving, guilt-stricken Hans Archibald to take on his name and ensure his memory survives.
151	* FakeUltimateHero: He tells tall adventurer tales that make it obvious he is just a fraud. He ''is'' a fraud, but not for the reason one may think of.
152	* FateWorseThanDeath: Believes that the wind will carry the souls of the dead to the afterlife. Thus, dying in a windless place, as his partner did in the Mare Jivari, is about as close to damnation as he can imagine. It's part of why he chose to take on the original Stanley's name, trying desperately to at least keep the man's memory alive. Luckily, Barbatos can lay the original Stanley to rest, bringing peace to both.
153	* HiddenDepths: His love of bragging of his achievements is not for his glory, but to keep the memory of his late friend, the ''real'' Stanley, alive.
154	* ScatterbrainedSenior: [[OlderThanTheyLook He doesn't look it,]] but he refers to himself later on as an old man and admits that his constant retelling of Stanley's story is partly because his own memories of Stanley are starting to fade.
155	* SecretKeeper: At the end of Venti's Story Quest, he becomes privy to Venti's true identity as Barbatos, but makes no mention of telling others.
156	* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: When Venti reveals himself as Barbatos and calls him [[IKnowYourTrueName 'Hans Archibald']], he is initially confused, but immediately asserts that he has "always believed in him", and calls Venti Lord Barbatos.
157	* SurvivorGuilt: The real Stanley died in Mare Jivari to save him. He took on Stanley's name and has been living with guilt ever since. He can be seen every night, completely drunk, standing by a tree and lamenting the real Stanley's fate.
158	* WalkingSpoiler: There is a reason why he acts strange at certain times after you meet him and Jack. As revealed near the end of Venti's story quest, he is not the real Stanley.

183	[[folder:Lan]]
184	!!Lan
185	The Branch Master of the Adventurers' Guild in Liyue.
186	----
187	* AchievementsInIgnorance: Lan is barely literate enough to read the word "sword", and blindly took on any commission she saw that mentioned the word somewhere in the notice. This ended up including 2 S-Rank commissions, which ends up promoting her straight up to Guild Master.
188	* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Lightly {{Deconstructed}}. [[ThePeterPrinciple Since she got the post purely from her badassery, she barely has any idea how the guild functions.]] The system seems resilient enough that she can get away with this, but she warns the Traveler that she cannot help with any questions they might have.
189	* DueToTheDead: Lan joins the Adventurer's Guild to use their vast intelligence network to find her dead brother's sword, to give him a proper martial artist's funeral.
190	* TheLeader: Of Liyue's Adventurer's Guild. She does not like the job much because she is just trying to look for her brother's sword, and not only does this complicate the search, but she also basically got the job by accident and is not sure she is qualified.
191	* AMotherToHerMen: Despite Lan's misgivings on her position, she is at least determined to not let any of the adventurers under her watch die if her interactions with Hu Tao are of any indication.
192	* NeverLearnedToRead: She is illiterate as she mentions that the only word she can read is "sword", which is one of the contributions as to why she is uninterested in becoming the Branch Master in the first place.
193	* ThePeterPrinciple: She's on the receiving end of this. The Guild promoted her to Branch Master after proving to be an exceptionally good fighter after taking on multiple S-ranked commissions, except she has no idea what she is supposed to do as Branch Master.
194	* SelfDeprecation: She admits that she became Guild Master by accident, meaning her actual knowledge of the guild's functions is woefully lacking. As a result, she warns the Traveler not to expect help from her since she barely has any idea what ''she's'' doing.

209	* TheLegendOfChekhov: Wenze is curious about the secrets beneath Sal Terrae, but cannot help to unlocking the barrier. So he told the traveler [[{{Foreshadowing}} a rumor about the ancient city beneath the ruins]]. Come Historia Antiqua Act 1, the secrets of Sal Terrae is uncovered.

213	!!Zhiqiong
214	The lead adventurer of the Chasm Exploration Team who is commissioned by the Liyue Qixing to investigate the phenomenon that is taking place in the Chasm.
215	----
216	* DramaticIrony: At one point Zhiqiong, already unwell from the prolonged exposure to the depths of the Chasm, says that the Chasm environment isn't all that worse than that of Mare Jivari, and that she herself isn't all that much inferior to Stanley in terms of adventuring. If you have already cleared Venti's character quest, you know that [[spoiler:Stanley died in Mare Jivari, and the "Stanley" who lived to tell the tale only survived thanks to the real Stanley.]]
217	* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Her motivations for wanting to explore the Chasm, are because she wants to be remembered, especially since she doesn’t have a Vision.
218	* LeeroyJenkins: She tends to jump headfirst into danger without considering the consequences, which causes many a headache for her expedition teammates.
219	* ThrillSeeker: Zhiqiong loves the adrenaline that comes with adventuring, and idolizes the Traveler for their herculean feats, wishing that she was in those events.
220	* UncertainDoom: After the Traveler completes the "Valor’s Afterglow" questline, she ventures even deeper into the Chasm without letting anyone know about it. The only clues she leaves behind are a letter, and an item called the Frostglaze Crystal.

228	* AbhorrentAdmirer: Taisuke is one to Neko who is terrified of him because she knows about him handling other cats and (in her own words) managed to figure out her weakness.

234	A trio of outlanders that the Traveler meets in Inazuma who are traversing the region for native specialties and the main characters of the "Gourmet Supremos" questline. After completing a specific quest, Kamei Munehisa joins the group as their bodyguard.
235	----
236	* ChefOfIron: Due to his background as a Shogunate Samurai, Kamei Munehisa is a very skilled warrior. He also specializes in cooking Inazuma specialties.
237	* CordonBleughChef:
238	** Parvaneh. She is knowledgeable on culinary arts, but she tends to add her own "spin" to the process.
239	** Xudong downplays this more, since he often tries to recreate the dish he just tasted with cheaper and more affordable ingredients. His results are often good. In "The Gourmet Supremos: Breakthrough Thinking" quest, giving Xudong Xiangling's notes gives him more inspiration on how to use Inazuma's unorthodox ingredients and unlocks the following world quest.

Kamei then decides to join them to serve them as bodyguards and get proper meals.
241	* MultinationalTeam: All of their members hail from different nations. Xudong is from Liyue, Julie is from Mondstadt, Parvaneh is from Sumeru, and Kamei Munehisa is from Inazuma.

244	** Certain commissions have Xudong and Kamei hold cooking competitions to decide who will prepare tonight's dinner, with the Traveler acting both as a mediator and an assistant to one of them.
