Notes:
This is for my sake of having everything written down for continuity- and i like it when I read others fics and they have their characterisations and views on how everyone interacts.
If you have any questions or if you'd like me to elaborate on some of the Headcanons [which arent left blank on purpose because i havent finished them] i'd be more than willing to in each subsequent Chapter update.
Its being posted here specifically because it all relates into the Creator!Reader interpretation I have and is portraying and how Creator!Reader affects the world of SAGAU!Teyvat and SAGAU!Characters
As in title, this chapter is skippable and is not needed to read or understand the fic, but an insight of the behind the scenes development
I am Self Indulgent, as the title suggest, and will continue introducing my love and interpretation of Genshin Impact and SAGAU!Isekai
All information provided can be disregarded, this is author spit balling the different things i relate things from this story to each other for continuity for my brain to make sense of anything i say and write
For their ages at the START of the Game take 3 from the numbers, it doesn't have much affect on anything just fun facts i guess
Format for characters below is
Name
[Actual/Physical age] (For immortal/long lived actual age range) - State - Species - where
Headcanons
Relationships
More information will be added into each as i write and remember thing about these guys from my head
The Screen system…
The Screen system is the Creator!Readers main ability. It is the main source that relates Creator!Reader to the act of Creation as the limits are bound by individual effort and their imagination, having no restrictions.
This can be gifted out via a screen of their own, the screen must stay close enough to the router (Teyvat or Creator!Reader) for it to remain active and usable
“Customise Character” Page
This function allows Creator!Reader to alter their physical appearance like the Sims creator
So while Author has a mental image of how things are laid out on a human body, there is creative freedom as there should be with all Reader fics’
Appearance customisation will not be used in the story to specify Reader looks aside from
The use of the the Chronicled wish (Acquainted star) colour motifs; Blue, Purple and Yellow/Gold, See banners for example
Dragon features
Clawed hands - dull and blunt
Dragon scales - Iridescent
Sharp teeth - filed down Antennae - like Neuvillettes’
Horns - Curved in, Goat like
Tail - with exoskeleton up spine
You are hairy, meaning you got some on your head, in your pits and on the bits (excluding Interface panel Mode)
Creator!Reader uses it to customise their Genitalia to their wants at any given moment in the story - think Fanon interpretations of the Skeletons of the Undertale Multiverse
Dick Mode
Dragon Dick Mode
Tentacle Mode - Gold and Iridescent glow
Vagina Mode
Dragon Vent Mode
Interface panel Mode - Silicone sealed flat top with seams, remove the front plate to access wires and a semi-solid gold and iridescent mass that keeps everything in place
Detachable Feature enabled - {lol}
Portable pocket pussy - {lol}
Portable dildo - {lol}

Creator!Reader had given Nibelung it to help him rule with when Creator!Reader left to reincarnate
The screens all corrupted, no longer usable or could be translated into a readable format when he left Teyvat as he broke the connection paired with him introducing ‘Forbidden Knowledge’
for example; the Akasha terminals and the ‘Forbidden Knowledge’ capsules from the Sumeru Archon questline
The Safety features of the Screen system activated and simply converted all information into physical materials
Tomes, Scriptures, Physical and Digital media, Talent Books, Experience Books/ Level up materials, etc.
It had stayed dormant in the background until it could connect back to the main hub (Creator!Reader) and receive a system update and ‘virus’ cleaner
which brought into existence all of Creator!Readers playlists, Internet searches, books, etc. suddenly being present in Teyvat history and modern day without it being translatable. Like a cloud update.
“The Dragon King” was originally the Creator!Readers title but was given to Nibelung
it was inherited by the Creator!Reader by succeeding the ‘Tyrant Dragon King’ in the previous world after breaking the cycle of its’ -Time loop/History repeats/Samsara’ event- and becoming the saviour hero
Creator!Reader uses all pronouns and titles and does not care for continuity of its use by SAGAU!Characters
Written in I/ I'll/I've and Me/My First Person perspective
Creator!Reader is not a reliable source of information
Creator!Reader is disabled and uses canes sometimes
Creator!Reader (Apparently) acts Atypically
Creator!Reader is written with a stutter that fluctuates
Creator!Reader is written with irregular movement
Creator!Reader is written with untraditional background
Creator!Reader is written in a state of recovery
Creator!Reader was medically dependent and is currently going through medically induced withdrawal
Creator!Reader is considered a Descender AND Outlander and thus forth the “Fifth Descender”
With Creator!Reader not yet connected to their title and name, nothing they currently do will be permanent within the Leylines and Irminsul
Which is the purpose of the Ceremonial Event. The SAGAU!Characters are essentially the only ones who can recognise and connect with Creator!Reader due to the resonance from you playing the game as well as retain the ability to remember you.
POST Ceremonial Event is where the common people of Teyvat will start to recognise the Creator!Reader {Similarly to the events that take place during ‘Durins’ Character Story and ‘Columbinas’ True name reveal in Archon Quest:Luna II }
Pre-Teyvat Creator!Reader hailed from another planet as was said to be “The Dragon King” of Mistral [A place from a very old minecraft RP series I frequently rewatch called “Shadow of Israphel”]
During this age Creator!Reader came into power and bringing forth the Creation and Destruction of worlds across the universe, even earning titles within different Hierarchies' in present and past settings This reference is related to Long, Aeon of Permanence. The original purpose of Teyvat was to be the new home of the dragon race and kin of Creator!Readers and being dubbed the ‘Arc’ or ‘Sanctuary’ AKA ‘Teyvat’ in modern history
Creator!Reader created teyvat using their soul and elemental energy to construct a physical manifestation
Creator!Reader the creator of the Earth
Nibelung the creator of the Moon
Heavenly Principles the creator of the False sky
Creator!Reader would have more of an affinity towards Electro, Dendro and Anemo - Eternity. Wisdom. Freedom - Geo would be the common ground of resonance as I imagine it founded the basis for planetary construction.
Creator!Reader had left Nibelung in charge of Teyvat shortly after it and his creation, helping him formulate the first civilisation before going into a deep slumber and forfeiting their mortal form to continue the cycle of biological immortality - shedding from Teyvat and taking the current form we know of as Creator!Reader
Creator!Readers' relationship with Nibelung…
When Nibelung becomes obsessed with trying to secure the remnants of Creator!Readers presence to try summon them forth once more to restore the peace and natural order of the world it sparked the Heavenly Principles and the humans curiosity on ‘The Creator’ and thus created the Holy Religion
Used it initially to cover the decimation of the dragon race and to weaponise Nibelung's disappearance from Teyvat to the ‘Sea of Stars’ as a blasphemous act to further segregate the Dragons from Humans of that age
Creator!Reader agrees that Nibelung was in the wrong to both bring back Forbidden Knowledge and The Abyss, but will accept that the usurped throne of Celestia and the presence of The Heavenly principles should be rescinded (What Neuvillette is currently doing with the Archons
Nibelung's Death to the Creator!Readers have not yet (as written) sunk in for them.
Creator!Reader knows that Nibelung had gone off the rails and passed via playing through the game.
Creator!Readers does not yet register Nibelung as their actual younger sibling until they connect that Nibelung ALSO followed a reincarnation cycle and had existed as Creator!Readers brother in the previous world (The Law man.)
DEAD Nibelung (The Second descender and Dragon King)
Nicknamed “Nib” or “Nibling” by Creator!Reader, it was not affectionately- they liked ragebaiting him
The name of ‘Dragon King’ was given by Creator!Reader before they fell asleep under oath of him continuing to reign as the new King of a broken cycle,
Youngest sibling to Creator!Reader
had left Nibelung in charge of Teyvat shortly after it and his creation, helping him formulate the first civilisation before going into a deep slumber
Originally had light coloured scales;
His original scale palette would also be the Gold, Blue and Purple, The Chronicled wish (Intertwined Fate.) colour motif
Post return from the ‘Sea of stars’ his scales turned black, theoretically related to the Abyss
Creator of the Moon Goddesses
Whom he left in charge (of the rules and laws) before leaving to the ‘Sea of stars’ to look for Seutervoinen
Pyro, Cryo and Hydro (Each relating to each of the moons) would have a higher elemental resonance with Nibelung.
War. Love. Justice.
Geo would be the common ground of resonance as I imagine it founded the basis for planetary construction.
Seutervoinen (The Voyager) was his friend who'd warned him that the world's fate would lead to ruin and had tried to convince him to follow her into the ‘Sea of stars’
Declined, wanting to bring along his kin and protect his race from dying out
Due to the original purpose of Teyvat. Nibelung did not believe abandoning Teyvat was a possible or reasonable option in the long run
Only after the creation of the moon goddesses and the Sovereigns did he leave in care of Teyvat did he leave to seek Seutervoinen
Found the world had been usurped by the Heavenly Principles - Starts the Funerary war
The land became soiled by human agriculture and depletion of the rich elemental energy causing the dragonkin to become ‘unholy’ and regress into the current dragonkin of Teyvat. Heavenly Principles weaponised this to oppress the Dragons
He realised the kingdom he'd left had become a breeding ground of the same filth (humans) who destroyed his elders world
When he realised the soil itself had become poisonous to Dragons and his Kin. He'd realised all his elders efforts of creating the ‘Arc’ had been destroyed and couldn't be undone even with all the technological advancements he and the other dragons had achieved
The mix of this and the influences from wielding Forbidden Knowledge warped his mind which led to his insanity and willingness to forsake all of Creator!Readers morals, rules, laws and foundations of Teyvat
By this point he had solely abstracted from his name of ‘Nibelung’ and assumed the title ‘Dragon King’ as his name which then invoked the new founding law the Heavenly Principles constructed surrounding names putting them back into a ‘Time loop/History repeats/Samsara’ cycle
He introduced the Abyss via forbidden knowledge
Tried to use it to fight off the Heavenly Principles
became outraged the moon goddesses were being used against him so he tried making them into weapons to counter, but failed.
The pollution, The corrosion and The Abyss all contributed to the fact that he no longer bore the original title of his gifted name “Dragon King”
thus plunged him into insanity to continue using the ‘Creation’ ability, The Screen system, that Creator!Reader had given him to help him rule with. The screens all files became corrupt
Died fighting the Heavenly Principles (6000 years)
led to the absolute devastation of Teyvat bringing it almost to ruin, thus the celestial nails were shot down to stabilise the world
Managed to severely wound the Heavenly Principles and disrupt their ability to suppress the original order of the world
Heavenly Principles then killed Saarelainen (The Third descender) and forged the 7 Gnosis
Heavenly Principles
(The First descender, The Primordial one, Pitkamoonen by the Frostmoon scions, Father of all Mother to gods, Master of Fortuna, Phanes) currently Dormant
or The False God
The Only instance where ‘The Imposter’ AU will be referenced as it's an official title given to a character that's important to the Creator!Reader lore - But is not influential in the main plot of ‘Self Indulgence’.

LAW - Flower of Life / Predetermined Fate / Naberius / Rhinedottr - Sword
LAW - Circlet of Logos / Knowledge / Heavenly Principles / Hroptatyr - Claymore
/\ Considered the main and most brutal of the Five Foundational Laws of Teyvat post Usurping of the Celestial temple and world Anything that contradicts the Logos or Knowledge is considered a direct opposition
visions can ascend them to celestia
visions are said to bound or sell yourself to fate
visions can resist like karmic debt
visions cannot be destroyed only removed
visions or allogenes are considered half god
visions are the connecting piece to constellations visions
visions - a primitive and lesser version of gnosis
vision bearers don't all have elemental affinity and some can only use mediums or objects
vision users can use portable waypoints but not normal teleport waypoints
Use of visions and gnosis to restrict those who, of course, have the ability to ascend into godhood according to the foundational laws that the Heavenly principles are unable to alter. Thus the interpretation of selling yourself to fate, also makes sense to prompt an ‘Archon war’ which was essentially a ‘Hunger games’ equivalent, used to kill off potential threats to their control over Teyvat, placing the victors in the limelight and parading them around as capital pieces keeping them under their thumb but visibly claimed as the Heavenly Principles ‘chess pieces,
Creator!Reader, if using this metaphor is our Katniss Everdeen and SAGAU! Characters our Peeta Malark… Apologies, when I was in school we had to do a presentation on our favourite book series- can you guess what it was?
gnosis can be used as power source - akasha, scara puppet, sacred flame
gnosis resonate with celestia
gnosis are bound by force to not speak of certain facts dubbed by Heavenly Principles
One such thing is that archons cannot talk about the other side of visions (the first being that visions are a person's desire) (remains unknown)
CURSE - “Curse of Wilderness” - Hilichurl treatment, they pre-exist Khaenri’ah and is implied to be a common curse they give humans
CURSE - “Curse of Immortality” - given to Humans that the heavenly principles disdained, pure-blooded Khaenri’ans and the angels (post Funerary war)
CURSE - Angels are not to love a single individual, if so they would be stripped of knowledge and form (Seelie)
CURSE - Moon Goddesses were to be rejected by Teyvat, draining their powers ‘til they fade (Columbina)
The Curses will become relevant when we explore the fact that Creator!Reader also has these same abilities and it is derivative from the foundational laws created at the beginning and not the Heavenly Principles. while Creator!Reader didn't use it on Teyvat, Nibelung did, which then passed to the Heavenly Principles.
Akedemia Rules [the only instance of direct Copy paste from Wiki]

SAGAU!Pre-Timeline recap simplification…
The first from beyond the world to come and establish themselves
Created humans and human society
Celestia is a place where the gods are said to reside ruled by the Heavenly Principle
Created the Angels to Love and Guide humanity
Created the Four Shades (Segmentation)
The Four Shades reside within Celestia as well and are currently active and are the envoys/emissaries of the heavenly principles
Engulfed the sky with its False version after securing Teyvat from dragons control (Not yet Nibelung return)
Pace Treaty formed with Moon goddesses to allow them to continue ruling even with the false sky in place so long as they don't counter the Heavenly Principles
Killed Nibelung (6000 years ago)
Celestial Nails descend
After their injury created gnosis and started the Archon war (started 3700 years ago - ended 2000 years ago)
Sibling awakes and bears witness to the next few years
Cataclysm occured - Destroyed Khaenri’ah due to their use and surge of abyss energy (500 years ago)
since the the heavenly principles have fallen asleep. The Abyss order and Fatui are now going for them whilst dormant
Sibling after the destruction of Khaenri’ah, awaken Traveler and attempts to escape (Beginning of game) fails and that is when they're separated
Dragon Soverign generalisations...
Sovereigns cannot be born within impure Dragonhood bloodlines or from ‘unholy soil’ thus not blessed by the light realm.
Vishap (Juvenile dragons) develops by absorption of elements (Geovishaps, Bathysmal Vishap, etc.)
Saurian (All elements but anemo, descendens of the primary dragon race)
Wenuts (Anemo, scions of Apep) can possibly attain it
Melusine (dubbed ‘dragonheirs’ and the daughters of Elynas)
Neuvillette believes Nibelung is wrong and that humans and Dragons can in fact, co-exist
Elemental dragons consist of the sovereigns and Dvalin. Leylines have a direct effect with elemental dragons
Current Soverigns
Azhdaha - Current Corrupted Geo Sovereign
Apep - Current Recovering Dendro Sovereign
Neuvillette - Current Hydro Sovereign
Pyro - Little one - Alt. world where everything got destroyed
Anemo - N/A
Electro - N/A
Cryo - N/A
Past Soverigns
Och-kan - DEAD/ DIES NATLAN QUEST - Pyro Sovereign candidate becomes corrupt
Xiuhcoatl - DEAD - original Pyro Sovereign and became corrupt trying to turn Teyvat back into pure information to defeat the Abyss

The Characters
Post Ceremonial Event - All characters will have joined the ‘Path of Permanence’ and become linked to the Creator!Reader
Everyone is gonna’ start remembering Leyline specific events including erased ones. Few have already started getting deja vu.
Affinity with the screens
Resonate with the Creator!Reader and or other party members better
ie. Nibelung making Moons/Goddesses
ie. Ei making Kunikuzushi and the Raiden Shogun
The only ones who can subvert this effect would be those that have an elemental affinity, enhancement or a non-internal and asexual reproductive system (Think Eggs, Segmentation, constructs and infusion, fragmentation (remnant).)
ie. Oceanid Hydro affinity like Navia
ie. Certain Egg types like Mini Durin
ie. Splitting oneself like Nahida
Everyone now shares the lifespan of Creator!Reader
All of them will soon stop aging as they become demi-gods
The Path can be strayed or diverted with intense emotion and both individuals but will get harder to separate the longer you'd been together
Over time Creator!Readers abilities with leak into the others giving them certain perks
“Path of Permanence” does render everyone to not be able to reproduce naturally due to the ‘Biological Immortality’ factor, Immortals cannot reproduce naturally but can ‘create’ or form kin
The twins true names cannot be spoken by the other people of Teyvat, when Outlanders and Descenders say “Aether” or “Lumine” they can only hear “Traveler” or “The Princess”
ie. Dainsleif - Cursed
Which is why Kintsugi heard wind, Nahida heard leafs, Aether heard sparkles
Those who have become ‘cursed’, blessed by the Creator!Reader or have earnt a high enough abyssal resonance can learn to speak the languages present outside of Teyvat
Creator!Readers true name also cannot be spoken but because it's just not in their vocabulary, what comes out IS their name to their personal interpretation of Creator!Reader
Canon NPC Characters with ab OC character development…
Fayte
mid 20's (500’s) Immortal - Wonderland manekin-
He is the quieter but more opinionated and blunt of the the two; likes to pick fights often
Electro, Dendro and Anemo resistant
Creation - Light realm aligned - Creator!Reader
Fayble
mid 20's (500’s) Immortal - Wonderland manekin-
She is the louder and more outspoken of the two, whether she expresses it in rage or excitement
Cryo, Pyro and Hydro resistant
Destruction - Dark/abyss realm aligned - Nibelung
Applicable to both...
Both take on a similar appearance of Creator!Reader to appear as biological
Both have existed within the current samsara for the 500 years since the twins have been separated by Asmoday.
Both alternated who is awake at one time in order to keep an eye on when the Creator is next to reawaken
when Aether reawakens first in Mondstat Both are triggered to reactivate and made to separately traverse Teyvat looking for clues on when the Creator!Reader arrives
Both are The prophets of the Creator in certain groups and the lead Priest and Priestess of the Creators main religious branch
Both are wooden constructs snapped from a branch of the original leyline tree of Miliastra Wonderland before its imminent destruction
They were collected and kept stationary by Mage ‘O’
They were gifted to the Creator!Reader in a separate server and followed Creator!Reader when you reset the game.
Zandik ‘Ursa’ Kappa
13 - Artificial Immortality - Human Segment - Sumerian
Will be separated from the traditional naming conventions as other segments due to failed nature and that he (Dottore) has now essentially put him up for adoption/gave him away
He's the version of him that got everything he wanted as a child now, and not in the way he made Zeta to be- a direct parallel shift. because he (dottore) has essentially restarted the cycle with his segments, ‘exileing’ him into death or servantude to the Creator- in order to receive the same treatment as he had and subtly proving ‘you are the same’
to get sidelined by you so blatantly calling it out and calling Ursa his ‘first born’ and titling him Zandik Ursa Kappa, and announcing that he will be your new kin.
then he's watching from afar as you care for this segment - and not in any loud gestures, it looks soft and entirely not something he's experienced himself
greedy. staring. curious.
all trades he supports. but none the less its not an anomaly in it the development that seems to have
As a basis line all segments do as it is a core trait of Dottore- his brain is the core component to each and he'd rather die than take that part of himself away even when creating segments for differing viewpoints etc, it's one of his control variables.
what, you thaught he was gonna say ‘because you cant seperate him from that, its his personality and really important to him’- no, he did try it and it fucked up an experiment so that factor got added into the control variable unit section. he dont care about any of the segments past their usefulness either in the lab, as experiments or as aids
Dottore Segment No. 10
One of the many failed experimental segments of Dottore ‘Prime’ but not deemed entirely useless and therefore put to use in servitude before being placed in Creator!Readers care
He's a surviving segment after the others had suddenly dropped dead to the floor Post Sumeru Archon quest. Prime had been rather loathsome that he had not joined them
Mute - Designed that way purposely
“Ursa” was derived from the dragon Dottore's segment, “Webtore” or “Omega” slew that but Mondstat in debt with the Fatui and killed Diluc's dad, Crepus.
Ursas’ mask is that of a dragon - “Ursa the Drake”
Ursa has another of Dottore's experiments with him; Segment Fox no.7 - Foxtore
Ursa's existence within the Readers domain is to directly challenge Dottore's ideals and main line of thinking, btw
Dottore will start viewing Ursa with interest. ‘What about this failed segment is fundamentally different that allowed this paradox to occur, he wonders’ changing his status from failure to ‘my child’
his personality modular is the same- being younger and in the presence of Reader- he is unusually subdued but he's starting to react similarly to how he did previously
Ursa has ASPD (Antisocial personally disorder) Autism and ADHD
Relationships
he likes what you stand for, even if he knows Prime is force feeding him a certain agenda. The Tsaritsa version of you interests him too but otherwise just knowing you exist somewhere out there in the world eases that boiling feeling in his body
wow… he can't wait for Prime to bring him to you, serving you would be the most exciting experiment he'll be able to conduct in his short existence
Primes Sign language for ‘éna’ (one)
you've far exceeded his expectations and you make the static subside enough to consider new possibilities in a world plagued by the Heavenly Principles and its pantheon of gods
he's surprised Prime is just as perplexed by your state of being and ‘Creator’ abilities.
…he might consider the idea you could be family, one day
Opinions on Creator!Reader before
Opinions on Creator!Reader after
Prime Dottore- The first and original (Alpha - A) He, the leader and Creator of the new world. Even abandoned he yearns for his Creator's gaze to fall on him with familial care. Prime does not leave his lab, he does not bother himself with others if he does not hold them to importance. This is the first time he's seen the man outside of the lab space and interacting with someone who is not Pantalone or his experiments.
Omega (Ω) - Currently Dormant - Webtore, webcomic ver. hes unpredictable being the closest segment to Primes Akedemia age and made perpetually set to his most hyper manic state- he was segmented before he'd reached that period so he's not sure of the events Omega was privy to that set him off
Beta (B) - Active - The one who keeps everyone regulated and organised, set to Primes most apathetic and lowest state of being - he's brutal in his observations and not one to have a second thought about making sacrifices - he was the one present in Sumeru Archon quest and made the decision of erasure for their fellow segments.
Gamma (Γ) - Active - The legendary surgeon, now he's the one Ursa tries the best to avoid, he's in charge of the modifications done to both patients and segments and have been given Primes ‘right hand man’ title within the labs, he also has a habit of making unnecessary edits and constantly tries to get him onto the bench to add something experimental since Prime deems him as ‘failed’ and therefor free game, thankfully his servant role is more important to Prime than as ‘practice meat’
Delta (Δ) - Active - His job is to observe the results of any given experiment within the labs, check in on the status of still living organisms and patients, he too was made mute in Primes haste which isn't a bother to the man, he typically assists Delta in his tasks, both not needing to communicate to convey results they find
Zeta (Z) - Recently re-activated - The child prodigy, his existence takes a direct change, Primes experiment to see what would have happened if he were to receive everything at his root age of ‘6’. His ‘family’, the segments and Harbingers- a fulfilling education and access to all the knowledge in the world and most importantly, no exposure to Gods or Goddesses apart from ‘The Creator.’ Unsurprisingly, Zeta ends up no different than Prime had in childhood. for the segments were just another form of Crucibena and the house of the hearth not a true family. The knowledge he'd coveted was the same as that he'd stolen from the akedemia in his youth. and the Tsaritsa and her… love, polluting the doctors attempts at restricting Zetas exposure. In his opinion, Zeta should be considered the ‘failed experiment’ and not him.
Mu (M - Foxtore) - Active - The blue muscle rat… he knows it roams Inazuma more days than not. for what reason he's not sure, but it seems to like eating the rations Delta gives him so he keeps it close on the days it returns to the labs
Trilunar Amalgamation - Dormant - He expects it to receive ‘Omnicron’ (O) as its designation when complete. otherwise its purpose is unknown
All other segments were ‘erased’, their bodies all sat deactivated in Prime's central unit in an off shoot to his habsuite. Their cores have all but extinguished and have since laid as dormant husks, every now and then he sees Gamma drag one out and follow Prime, door locking automatically behind them, but the void segments are never seen walking around when he hears the machines switch off from the labs days after.
Columbina Hyposelenia
She/Her hyper fem presenting
She just really likes how the materials feel on her form, and that it reminds her of sinking into water under moonlight in those early days before joining the Fatui and away from the frostmoon scions
No gender preferences for partners but i do believe she'd be curious about how all those things work
If she had to choose, Sandrone or Arlecchino would be who she's most comfortable with, huh? That's not what you're asking when you mean who she'd want a relationship with? Wow, craaaazy.
PRE NODKRAI ARCHON QUEST
Admittedly we won't be getting much Columbina content with her current personality because we are too early in the timeline for it
Aether and Paimon are gonna start working on it though
and Columbina is curious about you from the tales she's heard from The Tsaritsa and other Harbingers
she's just put off by the ‘ew. no. you look like my brother’ reveal because she too was under the impression she had to ‘serve the Creator, someone who is known to be a true god and the universal figure of authority’
like what do you meeeaan your my actual blood family that ive been looking for and your gonna help her return to the moon and that you're like her- not understanding why these ‘strangers’ are seeing and treating you like your omnipotent and all knowing and-
she's just re-evaluating somethings, she'll be okay soon
She, appearance wise, looks the most like Nibelung if hed to take human form - the only ones present who'd know this is Creator!Reader, Ajaw, Xianyun and Zhongli.
which the last three have no reason to bring up with her
Ineffa would have been included but her memory is shoddy at best - until her introduction to Aether will be different but will end as intended with the erasure of the 11th lords central core
Relationships
She never prayed to you unless she had to, being a part of the Tsaritsas court meant weekly prayers. They were never heartfelt
she didn't want to project onto you, why would she? all she knew about you to be true was that you created Teyvat.
And whenever the Doctor brings you up… well nowadays she tries to avoid the man and his ideology- but his old stories were intriguing if not prodding
In her mind you were the one with all her answers, if only she had something of value to offer to earn the chance to ask you
Nonna’ - This won't occur until much later
For now, you're known to her as the moons’ tide. or Reader
you make her uncomfortable, because you make her feel comfortable. She can't help but feel the Doctor's phrasing repeat in her mind about it- is this what he meant?
For now, she will simply not address it

Daughter of Nibelung - Niece / Grandniece
She's not too brushed up on the lore, she never paid attention to stories about ‘Nibelung’ because she never found any of them to feel true, either too dedicated to his reign or too detached from his image
She does not see him as her ‘Father’ as others do, but she does view herself as ‘one of his creations.’ It's odd for her, she's never had that feeling of belonging among the Moonchanters or the harbingers that fit the mould she's seen observing people.

early 20's (7000+) - The Abyss princess - Long lived species - Humanoid
She has the memories of being the Original Traveler and has experienced this world once before
She will have the same knowledge of what happens Canon timeline IRL
Has the “Tumaini” Ancient name
CANNOT reproduce naturally but can ‘create’ or form kin due to Species or Immortality factor
Aether
early 20's (7000+) - The Traveler - Long lived species - Humanoid
He is an active agent of chaos and will fuck with anyone and everything for entertainment
He can negate any curse or law placed upon Teyvat
some are very slow working or takes an unknown amount of time to unwork
ie. Paimons curse - She, erased from Irminsul and everyone around her is cursed to forget about her presence
CANNOT reproduce naturally but can ‘create’ or form kin due to Species or Immortality factor
Twins power…
They are the seeds of renewal for dead civilisations
the last of their race, who take on human form and can adapt to anything
Teyvat acted as a magnet- its firmament was supposed to keep it hidden from outside sources but the lingering presence of the long lost Aeon Long had summoned them
for what is Permanence without its seed of Creation?
The sibling had entered Teyvat first- Lumine in the current world and had let Aether stay in stasis while she did recognisance down below
after discovering that the Aeon did in fact make THEIR presence there, THEY had since ‘fallen asleep’
Lumine got sidetracked then by Khaenri’ans fall, leading into current timeline
There was a glitch when Asmoday had confronted the twins, Lumines data becoming corrupted and synched with Creator!Readers Lumine traveler from another server
like with Forbidden knowledge it affected Lumine and had kept her disillusioned to the world, when Aether reawakens in Mondstat with ‘divination’, Lumine had started recalling the event playing out but with her in his place
“meet me at the end of time… Aether.” she understands what her brother had meant, and now its her turn to play the part of the bad guy
all for her brother, and the chance you could set them both free from the cycle like you had done yourself all those years ago.
She hasn't existed long on Teyvat, having met Aether in her first year
Memory loss, but she doesn't know that she's lost her memory
She has the curse like Skirk, eventually everyone will forget her- and the reason she doesn't know herself any solid facts is because she's been erased from irminsul like Scaramouche had.
She's been given the buffer of Aether whose mere presence negates the curse
This at least explains how she's Teyvat's best guide and know everything, bjt no one in the world knows about her- she's a flying child, you'd think at least one person would recognise her if she actually knew what she knows
segment of Asmoday, we know she woke up falling into a whirlpool and then was fished up by Aether, and that's the extent of her backstory. We know more about Aether than Paimon
Cannot walk. she can maybe stand with assistance

She knows you as Mister Creator sir, she knows OF you but not much, she's not enrolled in any formal education nor is she really a part of any formal organisation apart from her own, she hears about you mostly in passing from mr Varka, Lauma Linnea or Flins when they visit or are looking after her for the time being.
She did however find files about you buried deep in the core she used in Ineffa, it wasn't much and was corrupt when she tried to extract it. but it was enough to spark her curiosity and become interested in you to listen when the others speak

Calls you Dad or Duckle
Your nickname for her will be Duckling
She loves you very much, not only are you known for creating machines and devices just like herself, you have the ability to do it in such a cool and practical way
she also finds you really funny with the way you're blunt and don't treat her like a little kid all the time, speaking to her on an equal level when it comes to creation but when all said and done, you still have the kindness of seeing her as a daughter figure too
Considers Ineffa as her younger (older) sister
Considers Flins as her ‘kind of’ Father
He was probably the one who raised her, before she made Ineffa to do so. but did so in his fae form since he'd have to expend a lot of energy towards having a physical form to care for a human baby and child
when the others began caring for her he quietly slipped away and began appearing to her in the form we know know him in
she doesn't know the two are the same person just yet, but she's been looking for him since the last time she saw him
Considers Varka as her Uncle
Its a given, when Varka emparked to Nod-krai 4 years ago [1 year pre game] when she was 8 and Ineffa was still in her trial mode, he noticed like with little Klee [who'd be 5 at that point in the timeline] she was a little special nugget and seemed to not have guardianship even with her claiming a ‘firefly’ had been looking after her. he took over her care whenever he could
he never learns it was Flins however i feel like hed be relieved if he did

she [excluding Aether] was the first to feel your golden glow, and for that she is forever thankful and holds that title to her chest as a point of pride
she used to be able to hear you clear as day, but once she noticed Aether doing more and more commissions she noticed her light was waning until she couldn't feel the presence in the back of her head so clearly
she was a little salty until [2 years ish] she felt divination slam into her - she doesn't know what it did, but every now and then, she could hear you humming [you finally decided to level your Amber after saying you would when you first started and had her placed into challenges and showcases in the other server]

I don't think she has much of a want or need for a relationship either, she's happy with her friendships and family relationships
although she does consider herself a romantic, loving the idea of it as fiction or for music
Her main occupation is her Idol status
which she uses as her way of earning a wage, nun work is volunteer and her knight status is a honour title than a working profession
Then she considers herself a nun of the Church of Favonius, her position there given by the knights than through official practice as a link between the two and serves as a communication figure

So conflicted. She is first and foremost, a servant of Lord Barbatos. When she first started learning of you, she really didn't know how to feel, her faith felt like it was splitting in two until Jean and Varka sat her down to explain that she can covet both or just Barbatos. then she felt bad if she just spoke of Barbatos. it wasn't until she learnt of Barbatos’ appraisal of you through a certain bard's sonnet in passing that she came to terms that she could pray to both
When she received divination she was scared and so relieved, it was not too long after Amber, Kaeya, Lisa and Noelle. She was in the middle of an idol performance, when her hydro activated and burst out in a golden light- it was marvellous for the crowd and she kept herself controlled until after when she promptly broke down and sobbed.

When he starts hearing you after gaining divination he's shocked and somewhat relieved, he uses the period where he can hear you humming [that same song he loves] to go out and do thing, since it seems you negate his bad luck- even temporarily it is

She doesn't necessarily have a gender preference for herself, i imagine Saurians have an entirely different gender spectrum to ones we engage with as a human society or from what the conscious dragon society has, being a more liquid Phlogiston base than physical solid base

Physically Disabled- does have a cane and wheelchair for use in the city, recently she has been having a lot of good days, as Eleazar has been ‘cured’ but she is and all the other victims are still left with the residual effects of it
I feel like it's not well known that the researcher that experimented on Collei was not Dottore himself, but one of his assistants. He was still very much a part of the experiments but likely as the one who signed it off while he was operating on Scaramouche in the divine tree- we fully go into the old Eleazar Hospital where we learn he was stationed years ago and hadn't returned to meaning it was an older project of his, than his current task so in my head it also doesn't line up too well to say he was there and testing Collei BUT a segment may have been present, im still debating the scenario in terms of relevance in Colleis lore and SAGAU! timeline
all this to say
While she would not recognise Dottore's main form, she would likely recognise he's the scientist's boss, and ‘Omega's [from the webcomic era where she first arrived to Mondstat] Creator
And react accordingly to how you'd expect. poorly, and descent into a [violent] panic attack because of it

Under the Scientist she learns of your existence through a mad man's rambling, he'd mention you so often, she'd be pressured to think he was calling her your title. It doesn't matter though, nothing matters in the facility- she knows that if he's speaking your titles, it means she isn't being tested on that day, so perhaps she should do what the other subjects do on this particular day and pray for your return.
Opinions on Creator!Reader Under care of cyno and Tighnari
She learns that you aren't quite how she envisioned- you dont… exist alongside them like the other gods, and that you've been gone for a very long time. She's almost sad about the fact until news of accolades start occurring stemming from Mondstat
She's hesitant when she receives divination but the amount of relief she feels- the pain subsides and she can breathe clearly for the first time in years. She spends the day at home with Tighnari in a catatonic state the first time it happens. The lack of pain shocking her too much and sending her into a panic, Cyno is the one to calm her down finally, rushing over from the city.

Her Djinn is the only reason she's been able to live to 40
but it also affects her appearance and development which is why she's so short
the Djinn hasn't cursed her or even made her any less human, so she's still relatively fine, it just stunted her natural growth
She focuses more on providing her services to her little sisters friends, seeing as they're sort of the only things of hers she has left that matters
she knows how most people view her and doesn't care, she knows what she's doing and doesn't need the opinions of others to stop her

As a god who is coveted for their Blood being gold, she had an obvious bias toward you, especially over the choice of you to Morax, god of contracts
she prayed to you alongside her faith toward Lord Kusanali, and it was often your title she uttered when haggling with potential customers
especially when she received divination. Not only are you a good business partner, you also have some good ideas! she unlike the others had a much higher affinity to hear your speech, she didn't understand the majority of it- but she could at least partition out enough to make certain investments and used it like a magic conch which helped her greatly when providing back to her family

She's a touch shy or maybe it's sheepish? you seem to be a lot more morally conscious than what she was expecting of a god of your talents and public importance so she's not sure how to feel face to face. it was easier to use you- sorry. use your title when you were an abstract conceptual god to her. Now she finds she likes you more as a fellow companion than as an idol.
so, will being called her friend work fine?

Gender is a restriction for Fischl, one the prinzessin does not appreciate! and will publicly advocate for and promote to her dearest friends
She loves loves loves! Barbatos! Barbatos is her icon in this department, even before she figured out herself and how she wanted to present herself. She's so happy her god is just a known figure in the community for it [despite it never being stated by the church outright] -but don't worry, she knows.
When Creator!Reader comes into her radar- she's so chuffed, ‘that's her! that's literally her!’ - she projects a lot so seeing another well known god, and ‘The’ god at that presenting so similarly soothes her younger selves self hatred and inner doubt
Do not use Amy to refer to her present self, she will bite you in response, she will accept the name when referring to her ‘past’ child version as she views the child as someone entirely different to her now.
Her hyperfixation, is the book series where she's adopted her identity from
Her speech patterns derive from mimicking the way it's written in the book, and her own self taught understanding of the language depicted in it- she spent years curating the ‘fictional language’ or rather its flow and use of adjectives, placement of nouns
She loves literature, Teyvat common script being her worst but give her something in Mondt, Fontainian or Sumerian Forest script? she's eating that immediately at reciting it ad-lipped in the language from immernachtreich
If she attended the Akedemia she would thrive in the Haravatat Darshan, now that she's joined Permanence she may try it- so long as Lisa can recommend her for scholarship that is…
Her highs over weigh her lows of recent years, but growing up it was hard for her to be able to even be able to wake up
when her parents introduced ‘Fischl’ to her- it simply saved her life and gave her purpose to continue living as it did get that bad for a while so when the immernachtreich Event occured it really dragged her back into her childhood rage and anguish
immernachtreich Fischl outfit was what she had planned to dress in for her death, we know that that version of her in the event was all of her self-esteem and doubt made into physical form and that she had almost given up if it weren't for Aether and her friends so i dont think its too far fetched that it was leading into the conversation of her depression and suicidal ideology

She's surprised many with it, and she's not that worried in how they look at her oddly for it
Zhongli is the best when finding out new tales about it too and with him constantly talking about you and praying and just being annoying about it, she's not sorry for wanting to hear something different every now and then

Destroyer of worlds!... no? How about plum? plum-bum it is!. yeah she's not too fused to treat you any differently than her other close friends, she sees you as such and will treat you equally, horrible nicknames and all.
you are also Zhonglis partner- she feels she has a right to give you both a hard time
Zhongli, she considers him as her weird older brother. I imagine he actually applied for the job well before the Archon Quest in Liyue and had been working there since she took over from her father and uncle, and that he was under those two for a short while beforehand.
She still did all the parlor jobs herself, but it was a comfort to have an employee who knew what he was doing and didn't interact with him too much until she felt comfortable in her position, then found out he was a nerd
when Rex Lapis died - she was surprised to find him with a wide fuckass smile trying not to laugh from a distance, they could see the exuvia fall from the parlor window, she had to really consider if he was the one who killed Rex Lapis, not that Harbinger…
when she was informed of his human form being found dead - she was more confused, she could not sense his soul present or anywhere near which was odd, they had a contract agreement as part of employment at the parlor and she KNOWS zhongli. even in death he would not piss around with a contract
so when he revealed himself as Rex Lapis and as alive at the ceremony to her - she rightfully is waiting for him to exit the realm so she can lovinging beat his ass for scaring her and making her go full investigation mode into his death the past few

This was the pre path of Permanence.
however we are still Pre Natlan archon quest in the timeline - so its still up in the air if Iansan will become the new Pyro Archon
the vision is a hindrance though- the merging of an already gifted vision and a gnosis may counteract each other and cause some dissonance

many of his alters have become dormant for a reason he doesn't understand and he misses them incredibly so
the ones he knows that are left or are willing to front for him all seem to be protectors
He, Freminet, is the Main host and is who is at the front a good 70% of the time
Pierre, who is in fact, an non human penguin mechanism alter, fronts for about 20%
Freminet built the body for Pierre and while Pierre can never have that as his body, he's grateful for the thought
Pierre - He/Its and refers to self as name
Pierre is mostly non-verbal - chirps that translate into morse code
Freminet can understand it perfectly
He doesn't know any of the others, and they don't like fronting either so he leaves them be and treats it like his siblings magic show audiences

[Flins] His younger sister, Layla. his one regret from the past he will always feel guilt over. he had only just reawoken from a rest when he'd noticed the flames in the fountain was lesser than normal [REPEAT]
A Fatus division had found his fountain deep within the sacred forests of the remaining snowland Fae within Snezhnaya and had thought the fire fountain was one of the flame pillars like in the city and camped around it- when they'd packed to leave, a Fatus has lit a torch using the fountain and unintentionally picked up Layla's flame with it
They got all the way to the ships when the Fatus snuffed the light and tossed the stick into the ship's garbage. Layla would have died had her Cryo Vision not been bestowed forcefully turning her from a Fire/Light Fae into a Frost Fae. this is where i image her Alt split from her main consciousness
Flins after this event, relocated and has since been searching, he can't tell if his sister is well, all he knows is that she still lives

Flins, her older brother. They will reconcile but first she needs to reconcile with her other half - he can only recognise her when she's ‘asleep’ as that is the fire light fae, not the snow fae she currently is. Shapeshifter, is why he doesn't go by appearance, he'd be hypocritical
Faruzan was the one to initially find Layla, although she doesn't know what she was- the little ice fae she found almost dead was nothing like she'd ever expected. But she helped this unconscious spirit into the colder parts of the desert- Asleep!Layla remembers her and has sworn fae allegiance to her as gratitude. then Faruzan got trapped for 100 years- during that time Layla had still lain asleep recovering still, Asleep!Layla when Faruzan re-emerges was so grateful for the opportunity to reconcile

Sigewinne
17 (550's) - Long lived species - Melusine - Fontainian
I believe there's a handful of Melusine generations since we know Melusines can die [Carol]
They probably have a similar biological immortality to the dragons as they were born from Elynas, Rhinesdottirs’ dragon recreation
She's one of the older Melusines, likely from the first generations of them so she considers herself rather mature in her species and endeavours to look after the newer generations of Melusines when they emerge from their Biological Immortality cycles after death
the older Melusines [ie. Sigewinne and Sedene] are probably who Neuvillette views as his older sisters while the newer Melusines [The troupe we see in Neuvillettes’ new outfit quest] being seen as his younger sisters, or as his daughters
so the number of melusines don't change much, just that they all get reborn into the cycle
Sigewinne's attention to detail about humans is probably unparalleled, having to treat them in the fortress the past 400 years
and the conditions only became tolerable because of her care there. She is the beloved of the fortress
The state of the prison was likely extremely bad in the early days. no nurse. no proper administration and chock full of people being discarded by Fontainian society
legends are probably told of this pastel humanoid melusine from inmates who've done their time, both good and bad know to not diss the nurse
she was likely the Stand in administrator during cross over and could probably take over the position if she really wanted to, but her passion is in medicine so she doesn't take it
she also likes being the unofficial warden - if the new one sucks, she reports straight to Neuvillette about possible misdemeanours even though it is a self-governing system
because there are still human rights. prisoners are prisoners not slaves and should be afforded their needs in a respectable manner
Relationships
Neuvillette, thats her younger brother, having been one of the Melusines that found him in the wild, has a lot of affection for the man. When she went to prison, the last time she got to see him was her trial, where she stayed within the fortress in solitude for the duration of her sentence. After her mandatory time, then she allowed herself to reach out to Neuvillette- they had both cried at the reunion.

AFRID, food aversion in other words
His aversion to Humans
obviously he has his karmic debt and his memories of eating humans dreams then the God he was slave to and later freed by from Zhongli and the other Adepti
to add onto that i think that God had made him consume his enemies/ humans that got in his way
it would further explain his aversion to integrating with human society, when he now views them as people he's contracted to protect, that karmic debt causes hallucinations, he can't escape it sadly
AND it would further explain his food specific adversion, being an Illuminated beast and demi-immortal in a sense, he can get by with only consuming Almond tofu
The staff at Wangshuu inn are slowly helping him out with becoming comfortable enough to attempt other things
Aether is his best bet for exposure and encourages him to explore things more freely.
He was already an adult when he was brought into Zhonglis’ fold so theres not much of his childhood development that he or the adepti were clued in on until later

she grilled him when she found out he'd faked his death again - and was then given the contract and informed the Creator had descended
She was still upset but understood.
she's aware it's much different from their perspective, especially the ones who don't expose themselves to humans [Xiao] but the affection title and inclusions are never rejected so she's content continuing the trend
She considers Zhongli her bóbo (uncle), knows his identity and helped him make his new mortal identity, applying for birth certificates, Id's etc.
Xianyun, of course is considered her auntie on the same line as the above and below, the older woman cared for her during infancy and often babysat her for her parents

He has Touch sensitivity
in the sense of, he prefers tight and restrictive clothing but breathable [that mesh underlay singlet thing? yeah. that.] but knows he has to wear something more ‘covering’ so he chucks the coat over top to compensate for it
if he had the option, and people minded their own business, he would walk round half naked or at least in less clothing just so its not grating on his skin or chafing
hates the heat but hates the coldness more,
Hard of hearing, those head pieces are his hearing aids, everyone just thinks they're headphones
mostly because he can still play music through them and he uses that as a pass
They do have a ‘bluetooth’ but he doesnt like the whine that comes from it when he moves it that one way so he keeps the cord attached to it and plugged into his Neo-Akasha subterminal in his pocket [his ipod]
He has a detachment toward figures of authority because if he doesn't get why someone is doing something, or if they refuse to explain their process, he will immediately go ‘that's dumb. you don't know what your talking about, you shouldn't be talking to m

“Fennec foxes mate for life” propaganda - anyone he's claimed, familial or romantic are now bound to him whether or not he likes it.
It's hard for him to think about anything or anyone in a romantic sense, Cyno just scraped the line and he crashed so hard after
When it comes to Creator!Reader it was very much the same, he had some reservations about going for dual Suitorship and only switched over during the finalisation morning meal (as mentioned in introductions chapter) when his version of the Creator!Reader was abruptly shown to be false and that Creator!Reader was just as dumb cute as Cyno
Relationships
Opinions on Creator!Reader before
He had mixed opinions, the Creator was a founding part of all the darshans but Amurta was focused around biology, an essential debatable subject between religious and medical evolution.
From the experiences he dealt with paired with the fact he became an Accolade he was often torn between both
He saw the Creator as an almighty being who weaved the fabric of the skies and constructs certain figures of time by hand to be guiding lights
Opinions on Creator!Reader after
Relieved that it seemed that both sides were wrong and that the Creator's understanding on the foundation of the people of Teyvat is based on lies and deceit from Celestia and the Heavenly Principles.
he sees you like a dumb cute hare- adorable from very far away but with a visible survival oriented mindset
He is technically married to Cyno
They did a fennec bond, rather than legal certification and refuse to get it officiated because it would be too much work in the long run, and the fact Cyno earns over the annual expected income (he gets bulk travel expenses, FIFO payments and overtime) and will put Tighnari up a bracket on his already average income within the forest rangers
Cyno fell first, Tighnari fell harder
He considers Collei his daughter, Legally he isn't her father yet. She's only under Cyno as legally adopted.
He considers Kaveh his best friend and has been since they first met at the Akademia. to Kavehs’ disbelif shock and relief (mutual)
He considers Al-haitham his best friends messy situationship turned soulmate (he's mostly kidding although that is all he'd hear about him from Kaveh until he met the guy when he'd become scribe. and decided ‘yeah, he's alright’ and wanted to be his friend)

She got too close to the ‘truth’ during her first instance of attending the Akedemia and was thus given her Vision to bound her to the LAW of knowledge and was given the “Curse of Immortality” alongside a select few during the aftermath of the fall of Khaenri’ah by Ronova
She was PISSED, not only did it prevent her from sharing what she found. It corrupted her information turning it into a form of ‘Forbidden Knowledge’ and was destroyed for safety
She partially remembers Irminsul/Leyline disruptions ie. Greater Lord Rukkadevada because of this
Shes the resident witch in Mondstat, Alice having caught on to her curse and revealing herself to offer aid, making her an unofficial apprentice
She finished her first qualifications with the akedemia, and continued with her life until she eventually realised she wasn't aging anymore - In her grief she returned to Mondstat and had herself be put to rest in one of the Temples of the four winds
She woke up about 10-15 years before the main timeline, going back to the Akedemia and returning to what we know as Lisa Minci Gunnhilde
With the “Curse of Immortality” she can't have children as she's joined the path of Permanence

While he is a potential sexual suitor i dont think this man is interested in the sexual aspect of sex and does fall in the ‘Sex neutral’ Asexual umbrella
Allo mid libido haver
He enjoys the control aspect and the use it has over personal relationships and will engage in it as a form of an enrichment activity than a connective or bonding activity, but if you or Pantalone sees it that way he's not too fused in correcting the two of you
He wouldn't touch the activity if not for his attachment to you two anyways- his distaste for others, lack of trust, and the mutual appreciation that he's curated only between him, Pantalone and you being the main factors
ASPD Antisocial personally disorder
This is another Autistic man. AND ADHD btw
I could go on and on about the comparison between Dottore and Al-haitam and how both are a portrayal of one side of the spectrum rather than opposite BUT that may have to be a separate post, for here I will go into dot points focused on Dottore. ahem.
His special interest is not Experimentation or even his distaste for the Divine or getting revenge. I think it's just the general concept of ‘Control’ and those are just two methods he uses to regulate and engage with his interest
His Image, His Memory, How people view him. He want to ensure they're within his realm of control and will go into the extremes to have the expected reactions to ensure its consistent and reliable
He likes challenges. More so later in life than say his Akedemia days where he did not receive any (not like he would have accepted it back then, but i digress) support or knew healthy (for himself AND others) ways to regulate to be willing to see challenges as a different way of seizing control of a situation
Experimenting on Eleazar victims
Pantalones’ unexpected results
Aethers interference resulting in Nahidas challenge
Readers rejection of Ursa's original purpose
He dont give a fuck about masking or conforming to any form of social structure, he will do what makes him comfortable, not you.
He'd be the one that unexpectedly funds (through Pantalones new banking system as his trial) and creates the first research thesis about Autism and get it coined in official textbooks revolutionising development into mental health facilities - but then get pissed the moment someone else tries to help him fund or add research into the project and abandon it half way through (Al-haitham is begrudgingly assigned the project after its abandoned because one of the newer trial sages made a off comment about it)
He hates the other Harbingers (sans Capitano, Pierro, Pantalone and lowkey Il Signora) cause they keep fucking with his shit and makes comments that are not needed about his demeanor and lack of social awareness. he knows they hate him too so out of spite he just keeps egging on the conflict, never resolving it and escalating it until we eventually get to him being willing to try off Columbina in the Luna II Update.
Yes, I am using the fact that none of the other Harbingers (select) don't like Dottore as a supporting factor to this Headcanon.
His actions, reactions and what he does in canon are bad, yes. but every single one of these motherfuckers are just as bad as him, they are a collective group of people in charge of a nation's full military force in active efforts of national takeover (Childe), science divisions that don't regulate ethical concerns (Dottore), creating machines of mass destruction (Sandrone), exploiting children in unfortunate situations (Arlecchino) etc.
Let him be a bad guy because he's just a bad guy and prefers to do the bad guy things.
He hated everything about his base physiology and biology pre-Dottore era and separates that part of himself mentally as “Zandik” but never made “Zandik” into a separate segment knowing that it is his base variable - to remove it would fundamentally destroy his Segmentation ideology
In Segmentation he does remain connected to each of them psychologically, he can make them share or split consciousness but they cannot return the favour which he find funny because they all have the same interest in Control.
Akademia Days [Pre-Dottore]
Child!Zandik was not loved by his parents, who names their kid “Heretic”.
he was abandoned in an orphanage growing up, which eventually became a branch under the House of the Hearth under Crucibena, which he had as his head mistress during his final years within the orphanage before running away and fleeing from the Akedemia
His insistence on using House of the Hearth orphans for experiments came from that experience, he is spiteful towards Crucibena AND the other children who either got that new life, or bullied and abused him during his time in the orphanage. “-Fuck them kids, bro.”
He spent most of his time fucking around with bugs and animals and rats that got into the orphanage and died, which did not help his case of his peers not liking him, but there was nothing else for him to do, being idle for him would have made him worse, i think
Or the house of Daena, where he snuck in constantly to read 24/7
Which is where he met Greater Lord Rukkadevada, the one person he thought cared for him until he forgot
She saw this kid, determined to experience her domain of knowledge and turned a blind eye to his sneaking and started giving him ‘special treatment’ within the Akedemia.
not out of pity or even care, but curiosity, especially after taking a look into his dreams
The time between her and him existing at the same time was short- her death coming about a year into her observing him akin to a lab rat
She needed to form an understanding on how Nahida would fare when she did separate her from Irminsul- and with the death of Nabu Malikata and King Deshret, she did not want to endanger their children to her observation and social experiments
After her death he snuck in to try find out the specifics only to see the sages imprisoning Lesser Lord Kusanali - he turned the other way.
He found the Greater Lords notes on him by fluke and boy did that set him off- not only did he discover he was being used to observe how children with a ‘lesser humanity’ or ‘void of empathetic response’ for her purest branch project. he learnt he was not in control of his ability to freely sneak in and out of the house of Daena- she placed certain books in places for him, left doors open on purpose, told sages and students to look away, sometimes instructed people to approach him and ask questions, prod him, test his reactions. he took it personally
Then he took it further, breaking into the Sanctuary of Suristhana to find out what that child knew about the Greater Lord, only to be even more enraged that she too was a God, her next of kin ‘the branch project’ (that stung.) but did bumfuck all with her divine abilities practically allowing herself to be entrapped by humans and her control and the Akasha terminal taken (in his opinion)
but one good thing he learnt was the truth of the Creator and the Heavenly Principles- from that point he divulged in the creation of artificial and biological immortality as well as attaining powers reminiscent of divinity and following in the footpath of the original version of the ‘Creator’
Thus began his spiral into having a distaste toward the Archons, Gods/Goddesses and the thought that ‘If these idiodic sages could manipulate this God, why shouldn' t he just make a new one’ into God complex Dottore ‘Fuck you guys, i am God now.’
Can subvert the Reproduction factor due to having an elemental affinity, enhancement or a non-internal and asexual reproductive system
Not that he wants any after the creation of his younger segments, he just has the need for control over all his automotive functions and that includes his ability to reproduce
Relationships
Opinions on Creator!Reader before
He's obsessive, a large portion of his early world revolved around ‘the Creator’ and you, Creator!Reader. comparing the two and uncovering the truth of Teyvat and following in your footsteps of forging your own divinity
Opinions on Creator!Reader after
Oh he fucks with you for sure, he can get on your level, he just hopes you can match his freak when it comes to his science experiments. He's less focused on engaging with you in a romantic sense and more so wants to indulge himself with the presence of a like minded individual who has achieved his lifelong goal of artificial Divinity, Complete Control over oneself and surroundings. He, once you engage with each other more will actually make him more quiet (volume wise) just watching you exist with him.
Pantalone
At first it was curiosity, then respect. He eventually comes to realise that Pantalone is one of the few people in his life that has consistently proved time and time again to be reliant and competent when it comes to following instructions in the lab and then as a fellow Harbinger. He allows the man some relief when engaging with him, even willing to answer his questions.
UPDATE LUNA 7 / 8 \/
The only motherfucker that subscribed to his unhealthy ideals with full conscious choice in the matter and Dottore stands by the dedication to the bit
He's [and Reader] gonna be the only one able to pull him into coherencey or into a state where he's even negotiable post the betrayal to the Fatus and the Tsaritsa.
Capitano
Capitano goes to him for his medication- I saw that elsewhere and saw it as a fair point,
This man is in pain, there's no reason he wouldn't go to Dottore to try numb it during the early days and offer his body for Experimentation to find ways to help his people.
The mutual disinterest in abiding by the divine rule- and him finding out Ronova, Shade of Death of the Heavenly principles made an encounter got Dottore's attention.
He and Lisa were ex's [repeat] AKEDEMIA
She broke up with him, saying he was too wimpy and not cute enough for her.
He's salty she got to it first, took it to heart
They were MUTUALLY Toxic to each other while together, they were more like friends with benefits without the benefits or the friends and all the scratch marks and biting
Columbina
His failed attempt at ‘adopting’ her into his ideal family dynamic was just that a failed experiment
he saw his younger self in her rejection of the Moonchanters, and got unhealthily attached wanting that ‘little sister’ dynamic not as a family right but as a position of power right
she however had the dissonance and disconnect to the term of ‘family relations’ that once she recognised the same pattern occurring that he saw her as they once did, she quickly cut him off
which, leads into his current view from Luna 7 / 8
Scaramouche - forgot
his semi successful attempt at ‘adopting’ someone into his ideal family dynamic
he's NOT [currently] yet aware the segments are all based on his physical structure and arrangement
regretful that he willing gave the man the blueprint to artificial Segmentation and Immortality
unlike Columbina, his exposure to humanity and their devotion was curated and controlled since his birth so he had an understanding of family [solely from Ei as ‘Gods’ and then later, with Niwa as equals] so he got trapped into the ‘discomfort comfort zone’ spiel of Dottore's more easily
Wanderer (Kintsugi), and that oddly familiar structure…
He and Lisa were ex's [repeat] AKEDEMIA

Greater Lord Rukkadevada, the woman who started it all and then forgot
Nahida, the one who continues that woman's legacy, and being the face that reminds him of his childhood dreams being shattered. hes glad Sumeru's dreams were taken, knowledge restricted, and that she stayed imprisoned for the 500 years
Pantalone
early 40's (200's) - Artificial Immortality - Human - Liyuen Chenyu Vale - Romanceable and sexual suitor
He/Him
Bisexual Cis-man
He stayed curious for a while, uncertain where exactly he tipped towards but after learning about Dottore and eventually Reader - he figured he'd say the above and leave it at that, he's still got that human part of him and the knowledge of what his mother, auntie and uncles went through in the houses
thus entering no gender or sexual preferences
because he gets what his partners have at any given point in time
Can he say ‘Only for these two’-sexual? or money oriented
Grew up mainly on the streets of a Red light district in Chenu Vale at the age of 11
he would often hang around different women's houses when he was much younger because of his mother and her connections and worked as kind of a helper or cleaner
when he got to his teens he wasn't allowed to hang around much so he stuck to the streets
He was the bastard child of one of the Imperial princes of Chenyu Vale and a sex worker
Imperial Court [In title only] - They were the religious figureheads that governed parts of Chenyu Vale. Like the Feiyun commerce guild they were a very influential and well known group, often seen going around praising the brilliance of God of Contracts, Morax.
The Imperial prince was a corrupt greedy man who abused his position, often misleading and guilt tripping the common folk in the lower districts of their mora under oath
The Imperial prince denied his existence and had attempted to have him and his mother killed by poison, but failed and got himself ousted by Pantalone.
hes developed a resistance to poisons post but his immune system is fucked
He did not reveal his relations to the man, not wanting to be further associated with him
Both suffered greatly, putting his mother in debt with loan sharks and eventually Fatui.
When she died a few years after the incident, he took on the debt himself
He spent until his mid 20's doing shady business for the Fatui and was considered one of the debt collectors [The Skirmisher enemies]
He cant fight or use anything too heavy so he had to figure out an alternative solution to collecting for the Fatui
but this man would be (if hes ever playable) be a 'archer' or 'bow' character - but its just a gun
Which led him to using his brain - He outsmarted the ones who were trying to siphon money from Fatui accounts, embezzle money, etc.
He quickly climbed the ranks within the Liyuen circles and became sort of a figurehead for them
He does not have the best of medical health, physical strength and constitution.
Chronic Illnesses
Glasses are not for show that man is so blind his script glass is like a short novel thickness
Severe Asthma / Lung disease
Arthritis
Due to his constitution he cant actually retain elemental energy within his body for long periods of time as it reacts much like how an allergy does
This makes methods of treatment for him scarce
He often uses drinking poison as a scare tactic in his negotiations, or as false trust exercises to get his debtors to drink or consume it
it was exasperated when he received a severe injury when one of his collections went sour and he was almost killed by a group of treasure hunters, saved only by a nearby Fatuss Seardent and his team
It was then he was reassigned under Il Dottore because he could no longer do his job
Il Dottore took interest in him because he was not atypical in the sense that he did not have the physic and built that he usually sees in Skirmishers and the Debt collectors
He went through his normal procedure, debriefing him on his collections, medical history, etc.
Il Dottore uncovers that he actually outsmarted every other Skirmisher, Collector and even a few of his own assistants
…also that his injection that was supposed to knock the man out never kicked in and that Pantalone had a resistance to almost everything in his lab despite the low constitution and health
Instead of making him a test subject he offered a position below him to see how he'd worked and how his brain ticked alive
Il Dottore was impressed and later recommended him to Pierro who also easily saw his strengths, prompting him to approach
Thus became Pantalone, Ninth Harbinger
He does not/refuses to wield a vision or delusion.
Was stationed within the Akedemia for a while under the Haravatat Darshan undercover for Dottore, while there he got to further develop his skills
While Il Dottore can't treat Pantalones more base Illnesses (both out of ‘he's too busy’ and ‘-that does not interest him’) he has been able to share his ‘Artificial Immortality’ with him to prolong his life
He’s often called sexist or a misogynist by subordinates or nosy aristocrats ‘cause he's very crass, does not mince his words and is too honest about commenting on appearances and public personas of others.
He's like that with everyone. He's just loud when he's bitching with the Girlstm and they all overhear him gossiping cause he cant keep his mouth shut
Because he spent his youth in houses with sex workers and on the streets he has formed opinions on the rich people he now associates with and often forgets he is now a rich person too.
When he made Northland Bank what it is today, he was so proud of himself he'd celebrated by returning home to his mothers grave and toasted her with a bottle of poisoned wine -and was found by Baizhu and promptly berated as he was being treated
Like I introduced in the fic - hes in the process of recreating currency in Teyvat
He hates that Geo Archon so fucking much, you have to understand, he is his antithesis and mortal enemy
He believes the creation of mora (more specifically a god-based currency) was the worst fucking thing to ever come about from the divine, and he hates alot more about them than just the relation to currency
He hates Morax, and by extension all gods, due to the above - This does include Creator!Reader to an extent up until he became Il Dottore's assistant and started learning about Creator!Readers true existence and background
He created the Credit Coupons to be a trial for man-made currency, a renewable source
His end goal is an electrical pulse device (Credit Cards, lol) form of currency for universal use that won't need Divine intervention or Geo/Electro elemental use either. he will make due with a physical replacement first though
Relationships
Opinions on Creator!Reader before
Before Harbinger - Enemies, he loathed the Creator due to his fathers exploits
After Harbinger - Hesitant, Shy. He no longer sees the Creator!Reader as a ‘God’ per se after learning of how they came to power and the Heavenly Principles exploitation of the depiction of ‘The Creator’ image and religion. He eventually realises that you are the exception in his little world
Opinions on Creator!Reader after
He believes its the “if you keep hating on or doing something so frequently it becomes less ironic/funny and embeds itself into your psychology” thing because now he can't stop thinking about you, he can only hide it all behind that mask of nonchalant, suave reverence for so long before it cracks and his lowkey obsession and adoration shows - he doesn't dare expose himself so publicly though and will keep up his Harbinger personality
The turning point to him making Creator!Reader his blorbo was at the meeting where Creator!Reader wanted to funnel all their efforts into the sanctuary renovations and when they brought up man-made currency and its system from the other world
He considers Il Dottore as a long life companion
He’d never call it anything more, but he'd also not call it anything less either, he values what the good doctor has managed to provide for him and begrudgingly respects his class even if he doesn't agree with what he does in the laboratory
UPDATE LUNA 7 / 8 \/
He's [and Reader] gonna be the only one able to pull him into coherencey or into a state where he's even negotiable post the betrayal to the Fatus and the Tsaritsa.
but otherwise he's still the same man who took him in and gave him his position-
he will double down because he stands with his problematic evil old man and his giant ass
He considers Baizhu as worthwhile business partner and respects him, he is his GP;
and while he is aware he is being overcharged- he knows that it's because he has the money to afford it and his Fatus status, what he receives is always beyond what normal Doctors (including Il Dottore) can provide, he's quick, discrete and gives other lesser fortunate patients appointments funded by the excess in his charges. He always tips extra before he leaves back to Snezhnaya. He has monthly check ups.

Later revisions and continual upgrades prompted Ei to further mimic human features, and learning from Yae Miko, fashioned the boobs from a silicone mould but quickly became frustrated when she had to adjust her uniforms so she could still unsheath her sword ended up just wearing them how she does in game as the Raiden Shogun doesn't recognise sexualisation of appearance and Ei couldn't care less for the image change

Queerplatonic Relationship [QPR]
She could not give a flying fuck about romancing you or getting in any sexual relationship with you, she is quite content in just existing with you for eternity,
its established that she has a separate operating core to Ei, and we can further extrapolate that she too has the mechanical core that acts as a heart for puppets like Wanderer (Kintsugi) so it's reasonable to think she has the same functions as he does, only that she shares a physical presence
Objective to a fault, there are facts, and there are lies
CANNOT reproduce naturally but can ‘create’ or form kin due to Species or Immortality factor
She has no desire for future Kin, adopted or otherwise, it does not follow her mentality, wants and needs in life. It's non-negotiable

Ei, her symbiote - she doesn't see her as ‘Mother’, a creator yes, but not ‘The Creator.’ as she's learnt is a different entity, As a symbiote she fills all diagnostic criteria befitting the identification

She/her, she will maim those who use It/Its for her and is neutral about all others, though He/him will maker her raise her brows and ask an explanation
Lesbian and no sexual preferences
Her data processor is based on data exposure, while she has a personality motor drive or opinions are routed deep into her processor
this makes it hard to change her opinions because she's thinking objectively, using literal data as foundations for them and not attaching emotional or subjective outliers
if you call her Autistic [or the Teyvat equivalent] because of this, she will give you a 60-page lecture about how while she does present with similar traits- it is because Alain was and she as his ‘Special Interest’ was built as the culmination of his life's work and thus it is wired into her processor functions that she process things the way she does and that her core personality drives are in fact vastly different
She does not consider herself under the spectrum for more reasons but she doesn't really care for arguing her point past the lecture above.
She actually hates men with a passion, especially with her early exposure to Fontainian society pre-Neuvillette and Furina. Alain was her only positive exposure at the beginning of her experience and it took a while for new positive data to enter her system to let her be so willing to be co-operative with those around her
She also has a Segmentation factor
for her, splitting her consciousness is impossible and incompatible with her core, so she's ensured that her memory banks are often uploaded and documented within external data stream lines or in vaults
For AND Pulonia
Like how a Katheryne can become compromised and destroyed, then replaced fairly quickly by another [Archon Quest: Sumeru] and retain knowledge from across the same connected puppets/marionettes
only with how complex hers is, she can't just make another body - Alain's work was one of a kind and she would not dare damage or alter that so freely
CANNOT reproduce naturally but can ‘create’ or form kin due to Species or Immortality factor

She does not have an interest in altering her physical appearance from the one Alain had envisioned and thus will not change, only maintain

She simply adores the ‘Creators’ story of the fabricated reality and the truth. Alain had stumbled upon the truth early in his career and shared it with her and they both constructed the fail safe of her system using the Segmentation factor

so excited to do collaborations with you. you are the same person in her processor, having done a character analysis and cross referencing all her data. All that needs to happen now is collect more personal data, with her preferably but she doesn't mind if it's also during tea parties with her fellow Harbingers
Alain, her father - He loved him very dearly when he was alive, there's not much else to say that isn't canonical and referenced in base media
Pulonia, her Life long companion - he was more than just her friend or creation or family. and she gags at thought of it being delegated to romantic - she can't explain it but he means more to her than anything else in the word, she can't exist without him and vice versa

He’s Transgender Male
being a puppet [post Irminsul] he's content in his physical presentation in relation to this fact
he doesn't have physical dysphoria ascertaining to his appearance because the puppets were all built as blank slates and customisable
he has dysphoria when it comes to his Mother and sisters presentation, and often thinks to why he is so different yet so similar
compares his experience and doubts himself sometimes whether or not he is or not trans
he's put it down as a social factor being his and their differences because he doesn't want to spend more time thinking on the what ifs of his gender compared to theirs
The existence of Kabukimono
She/her It/Its
she didn't know much of anything really, all she knew was that she was being guided to lead a group of people into the future for eternity and that she was Ei's vision of a woman called Makoto
but she was too weak- her core hurt for the people, she saw them as hers and she could see their pain of humanity and wanted to join them to experience humanity with them
Ei, after learning of this was conflicted whether to allow this deviation to occur, not wanting to restrict her as she had been unable to relate to the new idea and concept of his form of eternity
Yae Miko was the one who pushed for the puppet strings to be cut realising she had already strayed too far from Eis’ ideals of Eternity
Raiden Shogun had been built already, there was no point in stopping at one puppet, the two often were left together as cohabitation and so that their cores could sync and regulate each other's
Ei said it was a necessary feature, but it was because she wanted to recreate the bond between her and Makoto for Raiden Shogun and Kabukimono.
it happened so suddenly and by the time she could find her bearings after being cut off, The Raiden Shogun was placed on the throne instead seamlessly and Ei had shed her mortal form and had retreated into the Plane of Euthymia placed with the Shogun, leaving the only person who could accept her back being Yae Miko and well…
The existence of Kunikuzushi
He/Him/It/its
His life among humans, his 3 ‘betrayals’ and Dottore's introduction into his life
He started developing more broad ideas of life and what it meant to be human, exploring his identity and living with Niwa
The existence of Scaramouche
He/Him
he recognises this was the form that held a lot of his misguided beliefs and an abstraction of his original goals in life
he knows a lot of it is his fault, that's where his guilt stems from
For what he considers Dottores’ fault- now that he really doesn't have any residual guilt
The existence of his previous names and forms
He accepts all three as a part of him, they are his and he begrudgingly cares about how his former selves are kept within his memory, from the good times to the bad.
He will refer to each by name and their correct pronouns of the era they existed, even if Kabukimono, his earliest, is insistent that she prefers she/her [she has no concept what gender and identity is, that was not a lesson Ei taught her about as a puppet symbiote and immortal lightning incarnation].
His body (The Original) is made primarily by Porcelain plates weaved together using elementally enhanced wooden joints from the purest branches of the sakura tree in Inazuma, then wired with ancient technology in order to conduct Electro internally.
Its original features showcased a lack of sexuality meaning there are no original decorative reproductive features like an actual doll or puppet, just a flat panel.
Later revisions and continual upgrades prompted him to seek ways of maintaining himself. When he started developing a conscious and his identity he sought to express himself by mimicking humans thus learning how to manipulate his face plates with more natural materials via transmutation so he can have a broader expression range and miniature motor movements

Opinions on Creator!Reader before [post archon quest]
conflicted. he has 3 versions of you running around his head as well as the conflicting 3 versions of himself. he know he doesn't see the point in viewing you as a ‘God’ based on Eis’ lessons, that you are a ‘Creator’ from the Heavenly Principles and that you are the original source of Teyvat from Dottore. but they cont fit like a ven diagram in his head
Opinions on Creator!Reader after
You are nothing what he expected
and for that, he's thankful you defy that preconceived image he had of you
it's a great relief, he wishes to develop a relationship with you from scratch, and is content in spending his version of eternity with you in peace
He considers Pierro as his Father figure
When he joined the Fatus as a Harbinger, he became so attached to Pierro because he got the kind of parental validation from him at the worst possible time and scenario that eventually left him with more issues
he also could trust that he wouldn't die because of the Khaenri’an curse
he wont ever say this out loud to Pierro or even Durin, he will take it to his grave.
Dottore
by gods, he actually used to think this guy was cool, can you believe that?
His ‘older brother’
from recent update Luna 7/8, we know Dottore has a fucked up viewpoint on Familial Relationships and he 100% lumped Scaramouche into that umbrella alongside Columbina
I see this as his main reason of hating Dottore in modern times, ‘cause he now realises the man's intentions, lack of emotional regulation and projecting that fucked up his own and caused him so much discomfort
then its the disregard of his mental and physical condition in experiments and during his modifications
he's aware the Doctors segments are all based on his physical structure and arrangement and is regretful that he willing gave the man the blueprint to artificial Segmentation and Immortality
unlike Columbina, his exposure to humanity and their devotion was curated and controlled since his birth so he had an understanding of family [solely from Ei as ‘Gods’ and then later, with Niwa as equals] so he got trapped into the ‘discomfort comfort zone’ spiel of Dottore's more easily
Nahida, his Auntie figure younger sister - it's confusing for him, he knows she's the same age roughly if you take out the de-aging, but there's something telling him that she's his sister. [The Auntie part is coming from the remnants of Greater Lord Rukkadevada that Irminsul is trying so hard to repress]
Ei, his mother - he doesn't like her, but it's not as strong nowadays as it was, he's apathetic towards her now and wants nothing to do with her in the future. There is no reconciliation to be seen here
Raiden Shogun, his younger sister - he's conflicted, she is a separate being to his mother and he sees them as such. but she is still her host and thus any relationship he could even think to entertain would be eavesdropped on by Ei. There is no reconciliation to be seen here
Yae miko, his mothers wife - he fucking hates that woman with a fiery passion especially when he finds out it was her that actually got rid of him and not Ei. There is no reconciliation to be seen here
Durin, that's his new son jdk what to tell you..
Albedo, his son's other father figure brother
Other Races
Flins
30's (700+) - Long lived species - Snowland Fae - Snezhnayan - Romanceable and sexual suitor
He/Him, It/Its, use of ‘we’ in reference to self
No gender or sexual preferences
A Shapeshifter - Gender for this person is fluid and thus non stagnant, see current forms pronouns
As a warning, my Fae exposure is mostly Tinkerbell, Legend of Zelda Fae lore and fandom space iterations and AU. so some liberations are taken-
Fae are much more resonate with the Leylines and Irminsul than you'd think, forest fae specifically. They'd be an equivalent of Nahida
Flins would be a Fire Fae [of course] or a Light Fae
Like Venti, his human form is subject to change over the years based on how the humans develop around him, having learnt to live among them he knows he either needs to change identity every few years or purposefully age himself, he's of the opinion of mimicking aging
He has a Fire fountain where he goes to rest, rest as in the immortal naps that can take a few years
It looks how you'd image a fire fountain to be, he's hidden it deep behind mirages within the labyrinth of the inner workings of the Lighthouse after previous events and serves as the power source for the light to guide his fellow lightkeepers home
He can also use it to heal himself, it being a stored source of his and his kin's power
His younger sister, Layla. his one regret from the past he will always feel guilt over. he had only just reawoken from a rest when he'd noticed the flames in the fountain was lesser than normal [REPEAT]
A Fatus division had found his fountain deep within the sacred forests of the remaining snowland Fae within Snezhnaya and had thought the fire fountain was one of the flame pillars like in the city and camped around it- when they'd packed to leave, a Fatus has lit a torch using the fountain and unintentionally picked up Layla's flame with it
They got all the way to the ships when the Fatus snuffed the light and tossed the stick into the ship's garbage. Layla would have died had her Cryo Vision not been bestowed forcefully turning her from a Fire/Light Fae into a Frost Fae. this is where i image her Alt split from her main consciousness
Flins after this event, relocated and has since been searching, he can't tell if his sister is well, all he knows is that she still lives
He eats burnt anything or fires hazardous materials. normal food is also fine, just not as nice in his opinion. His favourite has to be caramel- burnt and still gooey caramel infact, pure sugar melted by flame and left to sizzle in his mouth? And if you added Snezhnayan fire water to the recipe?
He's not a devout worshiper of gods, he sees them as just another species like fae, to djinn, to humans, to angels- he's aware they're strong but he wont let it sway who he praises or sees as almighty
Names - don't directly give him your name or else he will take that as permission of ownership, in the suitor position, he'll view it as that he's your ‘main’ lover- this does not happen in the story but i still needed to add it here
His wings - They change forms but the most common appearance is much like Iridessa [from Tinkerbell] with a pattern similar to what we've seen from Nicole's angel wings and his own signatures imprinted on the transparent sections
he, despite being a big guy, is light- mainly because his physical form IS light. its apart of his Fire/Light Fae abilities that he uses to help himself shapeshift, human sight is easy to trick using it, for other inhuman beings he will appear in a bastardised depiction of his chosen human form, and will not be able to prevent them from glancing at his Fae features
Snowland Fae. They were an established race during the first age, a subsequent result of the ‘Arc’ and efforts creating sanctuary for the dragon kin of the original Dragon King, brought over from the previous land and allowed to take root
They weren't the only race that came through with the dragons at the creation of Teyvat
but they are one of the only remaining races that still retain their faith and recognition of the founding law and order
It wasn't until the Archon war where the fae had began diminishing, rival gods seeing them as threats by their rejection of the new order, their prolonged lives and their ability over the elements and light realm affinity
Princeling Fae. so, he's a noble from the viewpoint of the Snowland Fae, he has since shed the title, seeing as the Fae kingdom has been hunted and stripped of its original honour
but he does still have one part of his princely duties he wishes to uphold, and that's his promised courtship to the Dragon King. as duty to the Fae crown, the princes and princesses of certain fae courts are said to stay devout to the Dragon King in respect of their devotion toward their people, and as an offer of the Faes love and praise
he uses the fabled ‘Creators Courtesans’ tradition as a cover up for his aversion to engaging with others seeing as he doesn't want to reveal his nature
Relationships
Opinions on Creator!Reader before
He is not swayed to like nor dislike the Creator, however he find beauty in just the Reader- he doesn't see you as a god, the Snowland Fae are quite resistant to the will of the Heavenly principles and never allowed them to fully reign their true sight into their world
while being one of the last remaining fae and being quite young in fae terms- he still respects the original Dragon King [you] and will uphold his duty his kingdom
Opinions on Creator!Reader after
oh he is so happy to finally meet you, and quite overjoyed by the fact you are not at all like the depictions he hears humans describe you with
you also don't have the same restrictions that the current gods and inhuman people of Teyvat seem to have so he's much more inclined to act more free with you and indulge more into his deeper emotional range
my Light, Nightlight, my wick
Layla, his younger sister that he's been searching for the past 300 years and was separated from her when Fatui had accidentally taken her [fae form] from his fire fountain and relocated into Sumeru
Aino, he considers as his daughter figure. hes not to clued up on human relations but he does know he cares for the child much like how he did his younger sister
Ineffa, he considers as his
Illuga, he considers him too fondly and with respect, the man is his dear friend- who also does not know fae rules and had accidentally given Flins his name. luckily for him, Flins likes humanity enough to not use it often
Lauma
27 (38)- Moon Chanter/ Long lived species - Elk - Snezhnayan - Romanceable and sexual suitor
She/her
Lesbian and no sexual preferences
She ages much more slower than humans, and as the moon grows stronger and Kuvaki builds within her she will slowly convert into a demi-goddess state
Similar to what happened with Creator!Reader and the conversion of their blood into gold, features sprouting… just on a more natural pace
Silver Blood vs Golden Blood
She has silver blood [of course] and we know its properties are rather good, it can heal, people don't get poisoned by it. etc. unlike a god's blood or golden blood being spilt [see Baizhu Story Quest: Chi or Zhongli Story Quest: God of Salt] normally poisoning and affecting people.
i think it's because silver blood was created by the Heavenly Principles to combat the original forces of Teyvat and as a way to control newer emerging species and descendants, to also act as a separation barrier between the old gods and emerging
PRE Nod-krai Quest Lauma
she's doubtful of the skies, the tear that the Creator!Reader showed honestly fucked with her a bit, as it showed the shattered moons and the Eternal moon hanging in the sky and proved her theory of a false sky
then she sees Kuutar over with the rest of the harbingers- she's going through the ringer right now
Nod-krai development is going to go faster, meaning Aethers involvement with these guys are gonna be even more deeper because he's gonna get to know them a year earlier than normal

Exactly how she views Kuutar, only with more respect, she understands the dynamics of it. The Creator is Kuutar's only blood family left [that she knows of], it is only right she treats both a little differently, right.
Opinions on Creator!Reader after
‘fuck…’ she obviously did NOT expect to fall horns first into infatuation with you, the Reader, but you charmed her with… well… everything!
she feels guilty about her feelings though, you are technically her goddesses grandparent- and she's young but not THAT young. she'll be conflicted for a while, it won't be until the event in Nod-krai that she'll come to terms that she likes you.
Neuvillette
30's (600's) - Immortal - Sovereign Dragon - Fontainian - Romanceable and sexual suitor
He/Him, he does not like being referred to with It/Its pronouns personally and will correct anyone who dares.
No gender or sexual preferences
He is a Light [Primordial Sea] based ‘Hydro’ Dragon Sovereign, one of the only beings left on Teyvat that is NOT polluted by the filth that was brought to Teyvat by The Heavenly Principles, humans and Nibelung. and of course the only Sovereign left
His presence within Fontaine was only brought about when Egeria called him to become judge just before the fall of Khaenri’ah.which meant he had a period where he just existed
He lived with the Melusines in Merusea village
It was where he was taught [not well] how to interact with others initially, Egeria continued that education to ready him for humans specifically though
When he first emerged, which I imagine to have been from a cycle of biological immortality, having still been able to retain his connection to the Light realm, while he was in his egg it protected him from getting polluted but kept him in stasis for an extended period of time [From the original Hydro Dragon Sovereigns fall to his rebirth] he didn't have anyone around to welcome him into the world which left him to aimlessly roam until he was found by the Melusines
They called him Leviathan because he did emerge as a half human half vishap form, it was as he grew and had his first shed that he began appearing more human than dragon
he was distraught, he lost his scales, his claws and his tail and he did not know how to grow them back, he had no one who could show him and not enough built power to regenerate them
Neuvillette was the name given to him by Egeria
he did not initially want to join her cause, having spent the last hundred years with the Melusines and watching from afar how humans acted, but his curiosity of the race overcame his fears
I believe there's a handful of Melusine generations since we know Melusines can die [Carol]
They probably have a similar biological immortality to the dragons as they were born from Elynas, Rhinesdottirs’ dragon recreation
the older Melusines [ie. Sigewinne and Sedene] are probably who Neuvillette views as his older sisters while the newer Melusines [The troupe we see in Neuvillettes’ new outfit quest] being seen as his younger sisters, or as his daughters
so the number of melusines don't change much, just that they all get reborn into the cycle
He's not sure what is the truth and what is not, but occasionally he does get flashes of memories of the previous hydro Dragon to clue him into making the right decision or th show him what the previous had done wrong in his past life
he doesn't see himself as that previous dragon, but rather as the son of them
He loves, SO much, he learnt that from the melusines. he cared deeply for the people of Teyvat and he knows its not normal for the depth in which he feels
which is why I believe he tries to not form personal relationships, because he's aware of human lifespans, aware of the inhuman nature of his
when Furina's reveal happened he was both relieved she was free from the chains of Focalors but his only constant had now joined the realm of humans and was now subject to fates design of mortality
He spent the following weeks focused on re-establishing Fontaine and nothing else, no one could have pulled him away from his grieving, it rained heavily the entire time.
with the allowance of the bound souls, he will be more willing to open his heart to the people around him
His beef with Zhongli over weighs his beef with Archon!Rex Lapis - which is why his stack of ‘crimes’ is so much bigger than the others
in reality it's just a detailed copy of draconic rites that filled out the pages, the crimes part are all identical to all the other Archons which is why each are different sizes \/
he also has more examples he could have used for supporting evidence because he's aware Zhongli is old, and uses ‘Deus Auri’ his title from when he was under the Dragon Kings’ rule [he learnt it from a memory]
We already know why Neuvillette wants to judge the Archons, and his stance on the gods of modern Teyvat
the Heavenly Principles and Nibelung- boy does he loath their existence more so than his hate for Zhongli, actually.
The ones who really wrecked the foundation of Teyvat and caused the strife known all the way into the modern day
and then fucked around with the Dragon Kings legacy and turned Reader into their propoganda poster boy of ‘Creator’.
yeah, no. he'll play along until he can properly judge and fix the injustices that the Heavenly Principles imposed upon Teyvat first. hes aware the fates and shades are keeping an eye on him so he'll stick to following the laws of Teyvat for the time being as his precious, you, are recovering your strength
CANNOT reproduce naturally but can ‘create’ or form kin due to Species or Immortality factor
However, Dragons can produce eggs.
Can subvert the Reproduction factor due to having an elemental affinity, enhancement or a non-internal and asexual reproductive system

He/Him/ then use of any pronouns - He doesn't understand human concepts of gender but he is aware its important to them so he uses He/Him in his current form
A Shapeshifter - Gender for this person is fluid and thus non stagnant, see current forms pronouns
No gender or sexual preferences- He's attracted to you and only you on an emotional scale and doesn't have a physical attraction to anything in particular due to his just- general views and opinions
has he been with humans and other inhumans, yes. it was less of an attachment but a curiosity. practice for his future with you.
he's had a few long life companions in his age, that's undeniable but he formulated those with contracts, he wanted his boundaries to be known with those he was willing to couple with that his love is only yours. not many could accept his terms believing it would be ‘just a phase’ or that he was being insensitive to his partners feelings
if they were upset because of that, it's not his fault, he says, he wrote it in plain writing and sealed it with his blood and their signature
he never understood human greed in not following a contracts guideline
He is a Light based ‘Geo’ Dragon hybrid whose form and essence has been slowly polluted by the introduction of elemental magic [The Heavenly principles influence and human influence brought to Teyvat] which has rendered him incapable of wielding the true force of the Light realm powers
This man has been around for a long time, in this series, he came to Teyvat via the ‘Arc’ alongside the other dragons of the previous kingdom.
thats my reasons as to why Zhongli seems to know so much about Traveler at the first meeting in game and has a buff against erosion and Irminsul at least
Since he was there at creation, he isn't considered an outlander despite coming from another world, and is fully connected to Irminsul.
He, as a pure ‘Geo’ elemental was in charge of helping reform the cooling phlogiston planet and help solidify [hah.] the earth under the reign of the earths Sovereign [Azhdaha]
He had only seen glimpses of the true Dragon King!Reader, mostly because the dragon king never really showed themselves to the public, busy waging wars against those who sought the power of Creation and Destruction, caring for the hatchlings, introducing them to the world or exploring new worlds and forging allyship with other powerful beings [The Aeons’]
Then came the day where they had to go to sleep to recover their lost energy, and begin anew- he was devastated, he did not like Nibelung and did not want him as their new Dragon King so he abdicated and sought residence within the mountains of Teyvat the moment he felt your presence fade
Then Nibelung left his position and everything started falling apart.
The Heavenly principles descended.
Azhdaha fell first- corroded by Forbidden Knowledge and erosion of Times curse which was exasperated by the Heavenly Principles seizing control of the Laws
He returned to find Azhdaha in his defeated and enraged state, he no longer recognised the Dragon before him - this leads into the canon storyline of Azhdaha and Zhongli
he does hold resentment towards the establishment that Nibelung had created but not toward Nibelung's kin [Moon Goddesses and their daughters] and sought them out after the funerary war to understand what was happening only to learn the three moon goddesses had been slain [trapped] and had left the shattered moons and their kin in their wake
He doesn't like the Sovereigns [sans Azhdaha] because they so willingly allowed Nibelung to stray from Readers rules, laws and code of conduct
So when the Archon war was announced and the Celestial throne and Sovereign's power stolen, hed realised he was one of the last remaining who still knew of the Readers true nature and created a plan to seize that authority back from the inside, if he were to sell himself into the Heavenly Principles control through a bound contract that abides by their rules, one day he could use it against them as revenge and potentially take them down and send a message to the next incarnation of the Reader
‘A contract to end all contracts’ - that's what he bargained with the Tsaritsa for, the chance to bring Reader back and aid in their reinstatement of authority and to find himself next to you once more
okay thats story lore done- time for him headcanons
He does have a half hybrid form, but he can't quite maintain it as well as he used to though.
The older an elemental being like himself gets the more power he can indwell within himself
It's not always the best thing
he needs to expel it more often than not, which his main way was to create mora for Teyvat, think of it akin to scratching his back and getting rid of loose scales while in his exuvia form
The gnosis just made it more easy to shed, the elemental energy fucked with his light energy enough that it made him shed so quicky easily [cause the two reacted together like a disolvant agent] now he has to do it manually to his fustration
When he shapeshifts, it's known that the one thing he can't change is his eyes, Thats cause theyre the only part if him he hasn't allowed to become plagued by the Heavenly Principles control, a hidden clause in the contract he made with them when he sold himself into Archon hood
It's why in the flashbacks, only certain memories have him with his face visible and others his face is obscured.
it relates to his conscious acknowledgement and his personal attachment to the memories being displayed
He cares not for the forms he takes usually, the Zhongli form we know is an amalgamation of different features from humans he respected over the years of living among, except for his face, those features he's kept the most consistent since before he started mingling with the new inhabitants - when he has to make major changes, his first choice is to create a ‘descendant’ so he can keep his face and go around with his consciousness split into 2 or even 3 different forms then will simply assume one of their identities after dropping the fake body doubles death
he doesn't understand the actual horror of action in a human mentality as he does all of this without second thought. he is so used to dropping forms and assuming new identities he doesn't realise the average person believes his ‘family’ line is cursed because whenever they meet a member of the ‘Zhong’ heritage, it always leads to one of them ‘dying’ soon after a public appearance
His Adepti and Yaksha
Yes, many have since passed, some more tragically than others but he is aware that life and death is a natural order, ‘Creation and Destruction’, he would be ignorant if he were to abandon the founding principle of Readers existence
so they're his form of society and an experiment, one of his many successful achievements, he adopted the original foundations that Dragon King!Reader created for Nibelung to follow and created the group and actually followed through and proved that it was possible to curate and maintain Teyvat with what they had, not needing to leave Teyvat at all- I imagine he would've loved to shove the fact in Nibelung's face if he were still alive to this day
As down bad as he is for you, he is not delusional to the fact that his devotion was one-sided, he often thought of what world would have been like if he'd joined you in eternal slumber, his younger self not confident enough to approach you, to make that initial connection and forge the bond between you two. to make his vow and create an eternal contract to you at the foundation of time
so when he had been given that book, of the dreams and desire you exhibited toward him. your handwritten words of love and devotion- he had cried hard that night by the realisation
feels recognised and justified in his actions to this die and doubles down on his yearning.
CANNOT reproduce naturally but can ‘create’ or form kin due to Species or Immortality factor
However, Dragons can produce eggs.
Can subvert the Reproduction factor due to having an elemental affinity, enhancement or a non-internal and asexual reproductive system

Opinions on Creator!Reader before
He is the most devout follower, tales are told about Lord Morax's dedication to the divine Creator but not of the version the Heavenly Principles promoted which led to some discrepancies when humans recorded the events for the future generations. But he knew. and he ensured to keep the true tales, myths and legends in circulation through his Adepti, Yaksha and their kin which actually made Liyue one of the more ‘enlightened’ about Creator!Reader, keeping a more accurate depiction
He's a fanboy, his home and hoard consists of anything that had the ancient text, your titles or image and he is meticulous about keeping them maintained.
He did his dailies, praying at a shrine in his home. Every time he awakens and leaves precious rock offerings until they erode and become sediment

He is of the opinion that he is the Creator!Readers Husband, Wife and most dedicated lover they'll ever have and does not care about saying it out loud to others or to Creator!Reader
He is your Odysseus. no- actually, he's your Penelope. you're Odysseus.
The embodiment of “Would you fall in love with me again.” ofc he would.
He will, without prompt. do anything and everything in his power to love on you and show you his dedication be it cook, bathe (with) you, recite poetry, gift shiny rocks, let you hit it from the back, sleep for millennia- anything really. just ask.
he's already imprinted on you, there is no escape from him, he's your problem now and he will be annoyed about it, he's waited for your return.
