albedo. he/they. somewhere on the aromantic spectrum & biromantic bisexual.
!! : last time i played genshin impact was like mid or early 2021 i think, shortly after inazuma's release, whenever that was. i don't follow it at all anymore, do not read the wiki (except for what i had to read to write this out easily and concisely lol), etc.. my treatment of albedo and lifting of him from genshin canon keeps certain location and group names so i don't have to reinvent everything from scratch. i don't know anything about his role in current storylines in the game and more importantly i don't care to learn so it's better to treat my albedo like an oc for a jrpg world.
albedo is the chief alchemist and captain of the investigation team of the knights of favonius who looks over and protects the city-state mondstadt (essentially a loosely european-styled city). he is a scientist by nature and rather introverted but also relatively easy to talk to and, generally speaking, polite, although there are certain human and emotional beats albedo does not quite understand and usually needs to be explained to him.
he prefers his solitude and does anything he can to expand his scientific knowledge, including field study, art and anatomy studies, and stuff of that nature--thus, albedo can kind of surprise people by being both a really respected scientist and ALSO a really respected artist.
albedo is fascinated by hostile environments and studying them and can usually be found in his personal base within dragonspine mountain, which is for all intents and purposes the extremely dangerous ice level in a jrpg that everyone suggests the party avoid.
albedo is actually a homunculus, created thousands of years ago by someone known as rhinedottir (important reminder that i do not go here. ik she has canon lore in the game at this time but idc about any of that). he traveled with her for some time before she vanished on him and told him to go to mondstadt. albedo did so, and received his final instructions via a letter: "to show rhinedottir the truth and meaning of this world." albedo introduced alchemy to mondstadt and has lived there for some time; all of his research is done with the hope he will meet his master again someday and be able to give her the answer she's hoping to find in him. in the meantime he is concerned by the fact that he may one day lose his ability to control his power as an artificially created being and destroy mondstadt, trusting the traveler (aether/lumine) to destroy him should push come to shove.
silence is eternal
