All Fatui Harbingers Lore Explained (Genshin Impact 4.1 Lore and Theories) 

Everyone is sleeping on Columbina. She has supernatural angelic features, has _stitched her own eyes shut with lace,_ has a totally out of place childish personality, and her design is best described as "bloodstained innocence." Calling it now, she's straight up insane. I'm fully expecting a scene where she forces her eyes open and tears the stitching open, before making a blood curdling smile and doing something horrific.

the reason why Sandrone hates Childe is probably because she senses the primordial sea and the whale or abyss within Childe, that's if the theory that Sandrone is related to Mary ann. Also maybe because Childe massacred the automaton at the Dottore workshop.

Capitano vs Murata gonna be most hyped moment in genshin, hope for 5+ min cool, and well animated cutscene

Im waiting for Columbina, its the only harbinger who caugh my attencion and this was before hearing Childe and Scara talking about her. Im intrigued by capitano as well but i cant wait to get Columbina

Its hilarious how both Childe and Scaramouche kind of shit on Arlecchino and tell you not to trust her, that she'd betray the tsaritsa herself to get what she wants. We meet Arlecchino and shes probably the nicest and least hostile harbinger so far. Intimidating for sure but her self interests she acts on literally revolve around her children and saving the entirety of Fontaine. Even then she takes the gnosis to the Tsaritsa as promised. Doing all of this without having to raise a finger except when she almost did when she almost attacked Furina for it before realizing it was absent. Then she just left. Yeah i think like many harbingers the boytoy crew are just jealous of her higher rank while doing little physically because shes that badbitch that fights when she needs. Not when she wants.

Captain's appearance and presentation so badass and intimidating, i would sell my house to see him in battle and learn lore.His identity i think will be big plot twist

so currently we have 2x from mondstadt (signora,capitano) 1x from inazuma (scara) 1x sumeru (dotto) 1x fontaine (arle) 1x liyue (panta) 2x snezhnaya (childe,rooster) 1x khaenriah (pierro) so im guessing at least one between sandro and columbina is from natlan

My man. Columbina is my favorite also. It's so interesting and frightening to think about her true potential story and influence in the current time, because eventually all 11 of them will have their parts to play. For her to be the original Seelie who fell in love with the outlander is a testament to that.

Childe isn't the oldest of four, he's the third born, he has 2 older siblings You also mixed the passage of time, he spent 3 months in the abyss and but only 3 days had passed in Teyvat, not the other way around.

If capitano is the bloodstained knight then it makes sense that both pierro and Capitano may have met when they were slaying the monster's down there as Bloodstained knight is said to have went down to kill more and more he even started to resemble the monsters more than human he once was i think capitano case is similar to Jakob (a neo human) in which he drank some monsters blood to quench his thirst and proceed to kill till he met pierro and something happened and now he after celestia

If Capitano is just a human I am genuinely curious as to how is he so strong to fight gods. Wouldn’t that make him more on par with khanrians who made weapons to fight gods or the abyss level for that matter.

natlan will definitely be my favorite region when its released, capitano AND dragons!? sign me up!

Of all the 3, Arlecchino , Capitano, and Dottore are my top 3 terms of dangerous harbingers but Dottore is straight pure evil he has clones of himself dudes very very intelligent and ontop of that he’s very sadistic he even experimented on Collei if I remember correctly he took the power of a dead god that somehow evolved into a disease dudes practically unpredictable due to how he operates his affairs.

With pantalone, I honestly think we may get a whole side story with him and Yelan

sandrone cutting off the tongue of her disruptive subordinate and leaving him a vegetable in the opera house is such a power move🙏 She probably was angry that he destroyed such an advanced robot which couldve proved useful

3:00 Considering every harbinger has been the exact opposite of it's inspiration character up until now, my guess is that Pantallone will be a chad.

If Columbina is the Seelie princess I’m gonna headcanon that her face covering is the veil she wore at her wedding and she was never able to take it off and now she doesn’t remember what it is.

If capitano is gonna be playable Imma c6 him even tho I’m f2p I don’t care how many reruns it’s gonna take

I still don‘t know what to believe Columbina could be a seelie… But she could also be one of the four shades more specific the shade of death

I remember after reading the Managa, Dottore was the Harbinger had my eye out, mostly because of all the terrible things he did Collei and so many other children. Then came Columbina who despite being a lower rank than Dottore, actually pokes fun at him at the end of the meeting on equal grounds. What really got me interested was Childe and Scara/Wanderer's observations on her, especially the latter's. At the time of 3.3, I considered Wanderer and the Traveler as comparable, so when Wanderer said he could at least engage in a fight with her but the Traveler couldn't do that due to their conscious, that caught my attention.

If captino is the first harbinger and pierro is the leader but not the first but basically like the 0th then capitino could be the only one who could have a chance of getting the gnosis from the pyro archon as the pyro archon is god of war and capitino is the first so that would make sence leaving any that we haven’t seen by snezchniya we would see them in snezchniya and for the 10th fatui if capitino is the first then the 10th fatui harbinger would be dilucs father as we know he had a delusion however that is nothing more then a theory

This is a very small thing it had been confirmed that Childe does have some unnamed older siblings

I think once you get to #3 and higher, things probably become a lot more complex. Then not to mention we have the tsaritsa who rules them all (maybe?) This and I think it becomes exponentially less clear who is really pulling the strings, who will have the last laugh, and/or who is the most powerful.

In regards to the capitano lore explaining how could the blood stained knight be capitano if he joined the abyss, the fatui are the only main group of people that we know that is trying to over throw celestia. ASWELL capitano for his real life counter part is said to be a bragger like he lies about things. Capitano lied his way into the fatui ranks until he got to the number 1 spot with the help of his already amazing fighting skills in hope that he could finally get revenge for what celestia did to kaneria.

Excited for Capitano.And idea of Colombina being shade of death is extremely cool.I hope it's true

pantalone seems to be one of the characters with most potential, lore wise. very realistic as well considering how rare visions are and how many ppl would rebel against that treatment

The fact that the present Arlecchino “inherited” the title makes me wonder if all other harbingers inherented there titles everytime the old holder pass or leave for “reasons.” I mean if you notice how things are in the Harbingers most of them hold government positions that can be inherited through voting. Like mayor or head of finance. Could that also mean all higher diplomats that hold government control over a certain group earn a harbinger title?

Capitano is the strongest "individual" in Teyvat, not the "strongest human" crack theory, there's a possibility that he's the reincarnated Dragon King (Nibelung) himself lol

why nobody talks about sandrone being Marianne from the Narzissenkreuz and these stuff?

I got Neuvilette and Wriothesley and now I've started saving up for C6 Capitano even though he might not be playable but it's worth trying!!! No one ever intrigued me so much before besides Neuvilette but I'm so excited to see how his story will unwrap itself!

Pierro giving me that "nice sword, unfortunately *nuke level spell* "

The only harbinger I'm waiting for is Columbina, I have so many theories on her, and plenty of head-cannons but alas I've still got wait for the best character and harbinger to show up. I'd like to note that she is known as the "The Damselette" Her character was made to be portrayed as a damsel but its basically as the saying goes, a wolf in sheep clothing. I swear ong that she's going to be some Angelic type being, thus the dove like feathers. Also in the commedia dell'arte, Columbina or "the little dove" was known to be very intelligent and manipulative to achieve a high status however she also thought to be strong like an acrobat. She was a self self-educated woman, and she is emotionally literate too, quite capable of listening to others and emphasizing with their emotions. She has a lot of potential for her character and backstory which I'm anticipating. I also know she will definably have a lot of influence story wise and i think she'll probably play an important role. The chance that she might be seelie is there but she could also be instead one of the four shades, to specify the shade of death. But if she were i think it would quite insulting to put her as only number 3 BUT knowing this Perhaps being "the shade of death" in a different picture. At La Signora's funeral she seemed rather comfortable or familiar with death in a way. So instead of violent tendencies Is more of the aftertaste of death. More like the leading voice to death, the final "push" you need. Somewhat like a siren. Not to sure if you know what i mean by that. To add another thing She is defiantly some sort of angelic being but angels are always painted as innocent being or saints that do no wrong. If you know the story of Lucifer you would know he was once gods favorite angel until he rebelled against his power. So if columbina were to be one of the shades more likely the shade of death i feel like to could be in the same case scenario. Then again something would've HAD to have happen knowing she's only ranked number 3 but sense he barely know anything we can only speculate. I'd also like to point out why she would represent an angel more specifically a seraph. Most people would think to trust angels as most people treat them as guiding lights to the afterlife or messengers of god right? SO gotta hear me out. Columbina is presented as a Damselette hence her title, As if most people would fall for her helpless and innocent. THEN AGAIN if they saw an angel, who wouldn't trust her? It's been stated that under the adventure artifact set "He saw a girl so beautiful"--"Her apprerance was surreal, with a cluster of feathers adorning her hair" Angels are mostly seen to thought of as beautiful in a way or rather 'surreal.' It was also said that the devil could be beautiful if you know where I'm going with this. IF scaramouche and Childe were to warn us about Columbina because of her strength why not the higher ranking harbingers too. It's almost as if she gives off a 'deadly' aura If you know what i mean. I'd like to note from earlier i mentioned how she looks like a seraph angel. If you don't know already genshin has a tendency to go off of Nazism and a lot of other real world religions lore wise. Seraph is sometimes in Tradition places seraphim in the highest rank in Christian angelology and in the fifth rank of ten in the Jewish angelic hierarchy. I have so much more i want to say here but I feel like i've already said a lot so far... Otherwise she has so much potential hoyo better not do her dirty. Im just really excited to see how they are going to introduce her as I like to think the off putting or crazed nature she gave off to scaramouche and Childe was because of her dangerous admitting aura revealing a second nature. If she a type of angelic being i will throw hands because she better be like crazy powerful or something not to mention how the presented her so far. One final thing is Im gonna be dropping thousands on genshin just to pull for her when her banner drops because when i first saw her i was like "I have found my new favorite character." Anyways thanks for listening to my ridiculously long rant about columbina i just love her sm ! just sharing a few thoughts i have about her. NOTE - very heavily editied because i decieded to add a few things.. Edit 2 - Let me know if u want more of my thoughts on this i will happily share

i was instantly 100% glued to columbina the moment i saw her.. i have an oc that looks similar to her and she's the deity of insanity :D

Columbina is someone im waiting for because of the fact that childe himself wonders why she’s placed 3rd i take this as she can easily be number 2 but chooses to be number 3 and i wouldn’t be surprised because of how calm and uncaring she appeared in a room full of people who are pretty dangerous

"He was once a pussy" im subscribing that was too funny

Childe became Danny Phantom except Childeabyssmal

Tartaglia gets massive power boost after 4.2 glad for him

Here after Arlecchino's quest, just to keep the video up to date. The previous Knave, while sharing that title was actually called Crucabena, and was killed by Arlecchino when she was just 17 and still called Peruere, she had already been chosen to be the next king of the House of the Heart after surviving many death matches with other kids, including her best friend Clervie

After 4.2 Childe theories are boilinggggg

The three big ones must be interesting Cap Colum and Dot.

Hoping Capitano is genshin's jesus copy with his constellation being nails and all

Childe is going to be the strongest harbinger in the future trust

My fav is Capitano Sandrone and arrlechino

“Putting up a close fight between herself and the Shogun”. TIL getting one tapped by a puppet is a close fight

The top four are very mysterious, they all have their face covered in some way.

The video just started and Ellen roasting heizou

another thing that comes to mind.. Why does the fatui/cryo archon didnt do anything to raiden for killing one of its "diplomats"? not even a letter to ask for what happened...

There is actually a proplem: I think I read in Genshin somwhere that the creature from the seelie race where actually people with human body, but if they would fall in love they would lose their human form and become a so called seelie! I am not sure if this is correct and it could be that my mind is tricking me so please correct me if I sm wrong (and btw sorry if I spelled something wrong)

Dottore seems to be the only one who's purely evil

Perhap something wild happen that cause her to put that plan in action

Pantalone means pants in Italian🤣

Speaking of the blues clues on harbinger 10. There is someone else named in that italian play who we have yet to meet but have heard a lot about. Maybe the reason she left Albedo behind was to join the harbingers...

Looks like Pantalone is a fan of equivalent exchange

The blood-stained knight theory is no doubt completely correct even the Khaenriah segment since Pierro, the best salesman ever, just so happens to be Khaenrian and the abyss is basically made up the Khaenrian people (coincidence I think not). Perhaps they met when Captiano ventured into the abyss and Pierro explained everything resulting in Captiano pledging himself to avenge the Khaenrian people and what other way to do that then join the fatui who are collecting all the gnosis to topple Celestia, the very place that exacted the order for the nation to be destroyed?

Childe would be squad 11 lieutenant no doubt. He ain’t beating Kenpachi though still needs more power.

Waiting for columbina because she shares the same jpn va with miorine

My phone storage ain’t gonna survive this💀

Well shit. Now I'm invested in Columbina. Though considering that we only have two more regions to go before shit gets real, Hoyo has to start throwing us some Harbingers. We got The Captain in Natlan sure, but there's still at least six Harbingers we haven't encountered. Give us some colloboration between some of them! All the ones we've seen save for Scaramouche and Signora haven't had them working as a unit, so is it really out of the running to have such a thing happen? Your theory about Columbina does make me think, as well as some of the fan theories as well as the voicelines of some characters.

As a Neuvillette/Pierro main, the lack of info about him is saddening.

ersa was defeted by deluks father with a (deletion ) costing his life . detora took responsibility for it so monsat would like the fatui more.

you sound like itto doing a voice impression of a different person

Signora? Putting a close fight with the shogun puppet? Heh that's a funny way to put it. Sadly, Her "fight" or should I say "charging without thinking" towards the shogun would not even be called as a "warm-up".

As an italian i love that you pronouced capitano name corectly, grat video

One small correction, childe spent 3 months in the abyss but only 3 days had passed in teyvat not the other way around, just wanted to mention that

I KNOW EVERYONE IN THE COMMENTS ARE LIKE TALKING ABOUT THE LORE AND I LOVE THE LORE BUT BRO YOU'RE SO FUNNY

I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL

Great video! Quick question: you list every harbinger in order and call them by their codename (Arlecchino, Pantalone and so on) but you address Tartaglia by his title (Childe). Is there a particular reason for this or was it just a small oversight?

I’m excited for Natlan, and kinda worried about the Capitano vs Murata thing… I hope we don’t get too much attachments to Murata because I’ve already cried multiple times whit Sumeru and Fontaine HAHA.

the fact that pierro got his mask halved by klee is still unbelievable

Wait a damn minute Sandrone- Marionette sounds suspiciously like Mary Ann

I cant wait for Columbina

*head of the house of the hearth*

Childe isn’t the weakest anymore. He should be on par with scara or above ( Not Fake God ) . I think even at the beginning he was stronger than signora. He was playing with us in both his phases and couldn’t hold on to his foul legacy form .

Imagine the cryo archon is a descender

Columbina pulls out a 7 foot katana while "One Winged Angel" starts playing and she says, ""Those who look with clouded eyes see nothing but shadows..."

wait.... the rank doesnt start with pierro? the 10th spot is missing??

Something im very confused about is how tartaglia actually surpassed signora's powerlevel ages ago. He was stated by paimon to be more powerful than the electro traveler who beat a full power signora without any signs of exhaustion. Seemingly implying that childe is leagues ahead of signora in battle prowess. Its stated many times that the fatui harbingers are ranked by combat ability alone. So now im left with questions

why do I feel like Scaramouche is like Itachi from Naruto

babe wake up dawit posted

Sorry for the stupid question, but how could Capitano be the Blood Stained Knight? Isn’t the events at Khaen’riah over 500 years ago? Isn’t Capitano a human? I thought that one of his biggest themes is merely a mortal willing to challenge the gods

Where is the 10th harbinger

What harbinger are you most excited about? Mines captino columbina and pierro

I feel like d she could be the feather shade AKA THE DEATH SHADE I hope u could mention this theory with the colombina if u. Are one

I feel like Capitao solos all other harbingers even if they attack all together, man has that dawg energy, he is HIM

If scara lived in our world I could see him saying the N word and for that reason I can’t stand him lmfao. He gets bullied by one random kid and just takes that to the grave for the rest of his life filled with hate.

"A f***in hobbit named Pulcinella" and "PoCaHoNtAs" had me DYING Dude your channel is super underrated

With all the archons recently not giving a fuck about gnoses and this being the harbingers main goal, it gives me the idea that the archons are somewhat agreeing to the tsaritsa however, being mortals they dont truly understand what the tsaritsa's ultimate goal is. I would assume that most of the harbingers would want to achieve godhood. In the end i would say that the tsaritsa supports humanity with machiavellian ideals. Whats left to discuss is their dealings with the abyss but i dont see it too farfetched for pierro to betray the tsaritsa for the sake of the abyss since pierro was once a khanreian sage. I do have a hunch though, that Varka's expedition is in fact about the study of khanreia and he is doing this with the support of the tsaritsa. And with all the recent archons having doubles to hide their main goals from celestia, i would say thats the case with the tsaritsa as well. One thing to keep in mind is that, at Venti's archon quest, when Paimon was maligning the fatui's action, Venti somewhat hinted that "people" are misunderstanding the tsaritsa. And barbatos and the cryo archon was once best friends. Then again, raiden must have been more ruthless of an archon than the tsaritsa.

if she really is the selee that the adventurer fell in love i don't blame him, i too fell in love with her the moment i saw her n heard her voice. Im getting all the harbingers n archons but if i miss some i miss some of the grand scheme of things BUT columbina is a must! She is so mysterious, i wanna know more about her, that angelic vibe, and that sweet voice that idk why ppl find her singing creepy tho. But if there is another harbinger i want after Columbina it gotta be the Captain. Reminds me kind of of dark souls lmao. Also who tf is the 10th missing harbinger???

Could Columbina be the other twins guide like piamon is to the traveler

read the role of the name of the character in the italian theatrics ull see there is a fuck load of similarities with theyr character in genshin, tartaglia and dotore can be explaind just with that.

4:39 close? Close fight? Where

I like that joke about Signora's death. I like that he's joking about "peacefully" getting Venti's Gnosis. I like that he called Pulcinella a "Hobbit". I like that he tells all the story known so far about each Harbinger. Also, why is the 10th skipped? I'm surprised that Capitano is the first Harbinger 11:47.

Which Fatui harbinger is older than Morax? Edit, if Columbina is one of the original seelies, then sure she is older, but is he older than Neuvillette?

I still like the theory capitano was a surviving geo adeptud child who we thought died alongside xiaos other siblings

I think sneeshnaya will be base on Columbia since her name is Colombian 😅

the only character is Isee not as foe is knave

13:04 is so funny.

Either way they're gonna lose against po or heavenly principles 💁

I think Nuvilet can make capitano to eat his own s*** I don't think any human not including celestia or the abyss can win in a fight with noveletteeeeee

What about the tenth place? Who occupies it? I thought Capitano, and the first is Pierro. That would be logical. There are supposed to be only three main Harbringers who have the power "equal to the archons." Pierro seems to me to fit in perfectly, while Capitano - not so much. If what you say were true then Pierro, as indicated by Wonderer's statement - would be even stronger, and he is the strongest of the Harbringers. In that case he would possess a power greater than the archon? Would he be stronger than Tsarica itself? All Harbringers praising the cryo archon, including Pierro, place themselves lower than her. If only three of this group have "power equal to the gods," and Pierro would be above them.... Or are they just covering up for Tsarica? Maybe the cryo archon is long dead, and the actual ruler of Shneznaya is Pierro and the rest?
