Northland Bank is a point of interest and an instance located in Liyue Harbor, Sea of Clouds, Liyue.
It is a Snezhnayan bank with branches all over the world, which are sometimes used by Fatui personnel as their base of operations.[1] It is also the only non-local bank in Liyue.[2]
The Northland Bank is a major location in Chapter 1 of the Archon Quests, where it was used as a rendezvous point for the Traveler and Childe. During Rite of Descension, Childe has the Traveler meet him there after escaping the Millelith. The Traveler returns there during the start of An Organization Known as Wangsheng, and goes there a final time during The Fond Farewell in search of Zhongli.

Lore[]
The Northland Bank branch in Liyue was set up sometime before the Traveler arrived and is known for giving out generous loans to prospective clients, although some of their rivals, such as Gentry De'an, claim that they used underhanded methods to establish themselves in Liyue.
The bank claims to be "no ordinary bank" and embodies the values of Snezhnaya, primarily loyalty and promises. While they are generous in giving out loans to prospective clients, they request that the loan be paid on full in time, and become particularly upset should the loan not be paid in full and/or on time. The Fatui have a Debt Collection division, of which one of their roles is to help collect any outstanding debts to the bank. Tartaglia, when not busy with his Harbinger roles, occasionally helps the bank out with collecting debts. When he and Javert confronted the former owner of Yanshang Teahouse over his debt, he also uncovered the owner's fraud and reported it to the Millelith. The owner's arrest allowed Yelan to take over the establishment as her own base of operations.[3] Because of this, the bank has also gained a notorious reputation among borrowers.[4]
Ekaterina refuses to confirm any direct ties to the Fatui, despite wearing a Fatui uniform herself, but concedes that Harbingers are some of their clients. The bank also marks their bags with elemental energy, allowing them to determine whether or not it belongs to them.[5]
Other Northland Bank Branches[]
Pantalone is in charge of the Northland Bank's operations as a whole,[6] although the establishment of new branches may be handled by other Harbingers, such as Pulcinella.[7] A new branch is being opened up in Sumeru City at the time the Traveler arrives.[8] There also exists a Northland Bank branch building in the Court of Fontaine between Caron's Lepaute Horlogerie and Livre's Leschots Clockwork Workshop,[9][10][11] although it is inaccessible.
