Playable Characters

The Traveler is the playable protagonist of Genshin Impact. In the opening cutscene, twin siblings from another world travel through the universe, until an unknown god blocks their path. The player gets to choose either Aether (male) or Lumine (female) as the traveler and Traveler's Sibling gets captured. Their power to travel is sealed, leaving them stranded on Teyvat. They save Paimon by fishing her out of the water and she accompanies them as their new travel companion. Together they set out on a journey to find The Seven and reunite with the Traveler's lost sibling.

Although players can choose the name they want to be referred by, the Traveler's Sibling refers to the Traveler by their real name, regardless of their custom name.

Elemental Alignment

At the beginning of the game and in The Crux Clash during Autumn Winds, Scarlet Leaves, the traveler is "unaligned", a special elemental relation exclusive to them. When unaligned, the color of the Traveler's "vision" in the Character Menu is gray, and the background in the character menu with the Traveler selected is also gray. Although Profile lists their Constellation properly as Viator/Viatrix, attempting to open the Constellations tab will show a blank screen with "Constellation Unavailable" in the bottom-right corner. When unaligned, the Traveler has only one talent, Past Memories, their Normal/Charged Attacks.

When unaligned, screens that show character cards with their elements show a gray "no" symbol (🚫︎) in the place of the element symbol.

Shortly afterward they will unlock their Anemo talents and Constellations by resonating with the first Statue of The Seven in Mondstadt, the Traveler can resonate with any other Statue of The Seven they find and change their element to match the statue's element. See Teyvat for each region's element.

Normal Attack

Normal Attack
Perform up to 5 rapid strikes.

Charged Attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to unleash 2 rapid sword strikes.

Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Foreign Ironwind is the Anemo version of Past Memories.
Traveler (Anemo)'s Passive Talent 1, Slitting Wind, affects Foreign Ironwind as follows: "The last hit of a Normal Attack combo unleashes a wind blade, dealing 60% of ATK as Anemo DMG to all opponents in its path."
- The wind blade created by Slitting Wind is considered Normal Attack damage, and thus can trigger weapon passives such as those belonging to Prototype Rancour and Mistsplitter Reforged.

Talent Levels past 10 require Normal Attack Level Increase methods, with Tartaglia's Master of Weaponry Passive Talent being the only method currently available.

Normal Attacks

Palm Vortex

Elemental Skill

Grasping the wind's might, you form a vortex of vacuum in your palm, causing continuous Anemo DMG to opponents in front of you.
The vacuum vortex explodes when the skill duration ends, causing a greater amount of Anemo DMG over a larger area.

Hold
DMG and AoE will gradually increase.

Elemental Absorption
If the vortex comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro, it will deal additional Elemental DMG of that type.
Elemental Absorption may only occur once per use.

When this skill hits at least one enemy, it generates 2 Elemental Particles if it was pressed and 3.5 if it was held.
- Only the final hit of this skill generates Elemental Particles.
The DMG multiplier of the absorbed element is 25% of the Anemo DMG multiplier.
Initial Cutting DMG and Max Cutting DMG share an Internal Cooldown of 2.5 seconds/3 hits.
Storm DMG has no Internal Cooldown.
When the skill button is held, Initial Cutting DMG ticks 2 times (at 0.35s and 0.5s), then it switches to Max Cutting DMG, which ticks 4 more times (at 0.85s, 1s, 1.35s and 1.5s).
When the skill button is pressed, it will immediately trigger Initial Storm DMG.
Elemental Absorption can occur from both elements on the target as well as elements afflicting the Traveler.
Traveler (Anemo)'s Passive Talent 2, Second Wind, affects Palm Vortex as follows: "Palm Vortex kills regenerate 2% HP for 5s. This effect can only occur once every 5s."

Constellation Effects

Constellation Level 1, Raging Vortex: "Palm Vortex pulls in opponents and objects within a 5m radius."
Constellation Level 4, Cherishing Breezes: "Reduces DMG taken while casting Palm Vortex by 10%."
Constellation Level 5, Vortex Stellaris: Increases this talent's level by 3 and raises its maximum level to 15.

Talent Levels past 10 require Elemental Skill Level Increase methods, such as Constellations and Event bonuses.

Base CD	5s
Max Charging CD	8s

Gust Surge

Elemental Burst

Guiding the path of the wind currents, you summon a forward-moving tornado that pulls objects and opponents towards itself, dealing continuous Anemo DMG.

Elemental Absorption
If the tornado comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro, it will deal additional Elemental DMG of that type.
Elemental Absorption may only occur once per use.

Tornado DMG and Additional Elemental DMG can strike up to 9 times: once every 0.5 seconds from 2 to 6 seconds after activating Gust Surge.
Tornado DMG follows the default Internal Cooldown of 2.5 seconds/3 hits.
Additional Elemental DMG follows the default Internal Cooldown of 2.5 seconds/3 hits.

Constellation Effects

Constellation Level 3, Sweeping Gust: Increases this talent's level by 3 and raises its maximum level to 15.
Constellation Level 6, Intertwined Winds: "Targets who take DMG from Gust Surge have their Anemo RES decreased by 20%. If an Elemental Absorption occurred, then their RES towards the corresponding Element is also decreased by 20%."

Talent Levels past 10 require Elemental Burst Level Increase methods, such as Constellations and Event bonuses.

Slitting Wind

1st Ascension Passive

The last hit of a Normal Attack combo unleashes a wind blade, dealing 60% of ATK as Anemo DMG to all opponents in its path.

This passive counts as Normal Attack damage, and thus can trigger weapon passives such as those of Prototype Rancour and Mistsplitter Reforged.
This talent is similar to Frenzied Rockslide, the 2nd Ascension Passive of Traveler (Geo), which deals Geo damage on the last hit instead of Anemo.

Second Wind

4th Ascension Passive

Palm Vortex kills regenerate 2% HP for 5s. This effect can only occur once every 5s.

It regenerates 2% of max HP every second for 5 seconds, for 10% in total.
