Genshin Impact Theory – 5 Deep Lore Characters Return as playable characters



In this video I discuss 5 Deep lore characters who I believe are likely to play a big role in the game’s story as well as speculate a bit on what i think their likely Element and weapon types will be.

For my Tin Foil hats out there, be sure to stick around for #1 on the list as I get into why i think that particular character will be a huge player in upcoming story developments.

  1. I bet if Guizhong was a charcater she would be very sweet and kind hearted like you said. I really hope to see her as a character one day! I also wanna see more lore about her :3

  2. 2:34 I have a gnawing hunch that Varka may actually just use his fists or a hammer; with how long this story is set to play out I find it difficult to believe they won't add more weapon archetypes in the future. Mihoyo also really like to recycle core models a lot as seen with Sucrose and the Cicin Mages (both Cryo and Electro); this makes me think with how tall they say Varka is that his model at least may be based off of the Anemo Boxer or Electro Hammer fatui enemies. And since both of the Cicin mages are primarily catalyst users (ie. they attack from afar with no visible weapons), it wouldn't be that much of a stretch to think they would recycle their weapon of choice but put in a twist on the animations.

    I think a Pyro Boxer would be such an interesting playable character for Genshin and would really fit the image they've been painting of Varka.

  3. Venessa! Mondstadt characters tend to have more interesting lore/back story than that of Liyue characters, and anemo Claymore would be something interesting that we have yet to have in the game!

  5. The jester is someone that interests me. Though we’ve heard very little about him, the new pale flame artifact set provides us with a decent amount of information regarding his introduction into the fatui

  6. These characters are connected deeply to the lore indeed. But currently the characters I see holding the top most importance in lore for its grand unfolding are Venti and the upcoming archon, Raiden Shogun. Their action over the past years have time and again proven to be strange for a ruler, Zhongli being the prime example. Which implies that they know "something". Venti even goes as far as to state some derogatory statement about celestia saying its waters tasting foul and its fruits, bland. Raiden Shogun is seizing visions, quite the opposite of what archons are supposed to do as per their roles given by celestia. Currently and originally, its all just a speculation. But I think these two characters will be the first to turn the world upside down on top of our heads.
    Nonetheless, great lore vid TH!! Feeling great hearing ur voice after so many days.

  7. Isn't there a mention of Alice talking with Klee about dinosaurs and chicken. Then in the end Alice said among the lines of the borders of tevyat are weakening and she need to adventure further. It is mentioned in the kfc exclusive glider

  8. Im savings for Baal and varka. I do hope varka is as strong as His stories and not like how zhong li was in lore and end up being a support.

  9. If anyone has read Chinese Wuxia novels you can see that genshin impact is quite similar to them. MC is sent to a lower world where his power is sealed or destroyed he will strengthen his powers so he can fight back the enemies. The lower world is Teyvat while Celestia is a higher world.
    Also I think that lumine and aether came from a upper world different from Celestia which has different powers such as shown in beginning which differs from seven elements. The unknown god saw them as threat and sealed their powers and banished them to Teyvat.

  10. I like the idea of Rhinedottir being a sword user and teaching albedo, but since Khemia is the art of life, what if she has a Dendro vision🀔

  11. Another character who might have been nice on this list is Bosacius, yaksha who disappeared rather than dying like the other yaksha who fought demons for rex lapis. the lore of the millelith set also talks of a nameless yaksha who fought 500 years ago in the chasm, and rather than still being under rex lapis’ command, they fought to redeem themselves for their previous “cowardice and dereliction of duty”…
