Genshin Impact Wiki

Non-Player Characters (NPCs) are all characters that cannot be controlled by the player. This includes characters that have only been mentioned, as well as characters that may become playable in the future.

Though many NPCs can be interacted with in the open world at any time, others only appear during quests or events, and are categorized as quest-exclusive and event-exclusive NPCs respectively.

Some open-world NPCs serve additional functions, such as exchanging items with the player, allowing the player to interact with a game system like Reputation, or initiating time trials.

For a complete list of all NPCs, see NPC/List.

Vendor NPCs[]

Some NPCs in Genshin Impact serve as shop vendors and will sell items to players. Most shops will restock their wares every day. Detailed lists of the items offered can be found on the vendors' pages.

Some shops are major shops, and their vendors have their own map icon. These major shops appear in every region.
