Character Teaser - "Wriothesley: Indispensable Protocols" | Genshin Impact 

This guy definitely holds the true meaning of justice when it comes to family

We all knew where this was going, and it still hit hard in the feels.

Even when he says “ I hope you become a better father” with such conviction, you can still hear a slight pain in his voice for the realization the daughter will later have. That’s true character depth! Awesome!

I was taken away from my mother when I was a child. Police came. I was in panic. I had no answers. I cried so much. Wrio is a legend for what he did. He is what I needed.

Not gonna lie, I think the introduction with Wriothesley is pretty awesome, they nailed the choices with his voice in English and Japanese.

He may look scary, cold and intimidating outside but he's really gentle, kind and soft deep inside. I love how his teaser highlighted that fact on him.

Honestly I love Wriothesley because, out of the whole Genshin cast, he feels the most "real" His fighting style isnt very high-fantasy, he's kind but also strict, he's a little witty, he has a penchant for tea, he doesnt speak in eloquencies or slang... like if you just disregard the world of Genshin for a second, he totally feels like he could be a real person

He always prioritizes justice. Even though he arrested the girl's father for committing a crime, he still cares about his daughter. Hoyoverse really made this character as perfect as possible and in great detail. I hope I get him 🛐🛐🛐

Spoilers below : The fact that he protects the children with so much care because he himself is an orphan and wants to assure the kids that their parents love them before he takes them away...

Finally after all those years, Kaeya has a friend now.

So, no story or voiceline spoilers, but this hits so much harder when you know what he went through. The humility and grace he handles sensitive situations with is amazing.

"Love should be warm . But come to you , it is become a form of punishment "

Wriothesley is such a great character, I love his personality and design, I really hope I get him. Good Luck to Everyone in their Pulls!

our first cryo catalyst! good luck everyone!

I already knew he'd definitely be one of the more "angsty" characters in the game but it's interesting to see the direction hoyoverse decided to turn to for his personality. He didn't have a "good" past, he wasn't raised by two loving parents in a loving household, he's lived in the streets and has been sentence for a crime he admitted guilty to yet he's a fully functioning human being with good morals. Not to mention he's working as a prison warden to put other people in line. I haven't played his story quest or have him as one of my characters but when I do, I'm sure I'll be saving his quest for a good day so I can focus in analyzing his personality, past, and what path he has chosen for himself.

At the beginning I wasn't sure if I wanted to pull for him, but when we met him in the 4.1 AQ all doubts faded. I thought he'd be the typical cold character and nothing more. But he ended up being very talkative, has a great sense of humor and he's very kind and also badass. I love his play style and everything, so I had to skip Neuvillete (still hurts) to make sure I had the guaranteed for him. I still don't know whether to pull for his weapon or not, but he's coming home! Good luck, everyone!

I’ve been waiting for this teaser and I’m so excited for him!! He’s so considerate of children, it’s heartwarming and yet the chills felt from his words at the end.. Manifesting Wriothesley to come early!!

Joe Zieja does not miss with his voice acting! Been a fan of his since FE3H hay days when he voiced Claude von Riegan

This hits SO much harder after his story quest.

that last line "next time you see your daughter, I hope you'll have become a better father" it really hit me. thought my daddy issues were behind me but apparently not. The voice acting was amazing, the animations were amazing, and overall I think Rizzly's character is amazing. Good luck to everyone pulling on his banner :)

WRIOTHESLEY IS COMING HOME BBG DONT WORRY

i’m so addicted to his character design i’m never getting over him.

Hoyo released in a single patch 2 characters that quickly became my favourites. It's not even fair. Everything about them is amazing and aaaaaaah this teaser is incredibleeee. May all Wrio wanters be Wrio havers!

Joe really nailed Wrothesley's personality! Wriothesley has quickly become a favorite character. I'm looking forward to getting him and learning more about him in his story quest!

Empatia por la niña que sabe que no tiene nada que ver con lo que hizo el padre, me gusta este personaje

I’m late to this teaser but omg did I almost shed tears watching this. I have a deadbeat and hurtful biological father, he doesn’t pay child support, owing up over 7,000 right now and it continues to pile as he doesn’t pay and quits job to avoid being found to pay, nor treat me like his child. Makes me put out his cigarettes and cook for him, have to pick up lot cigarettes he drops while at his house to prevent fires. He texts me..once a month, on the dot, so that he can “prove” he hasn’t abandoned me if brought to court. He allowed so much trauma and hurt to be inflicted on me, by his adult friends, my brother and his animals he kept. I would be left in the car without ac on hot days, and without heating on colds days..I don’t even have my own room at his house (its more of like a storage closet with 2 WHOLE LAWNMOWERS in it). Wriothesley reminds me so much of my amazing step-father, every month he racks up the money total of my biological dads child support he owes, and grabbing evidence and stuff for if a court case happens. He’s always confronted my biological dad about how he needs to straighten himself out and pay up or else he would adopt me and pay it off himself. I never understood all that as a child in my early years, my step-dad just told me I would be fine. the way “I hope you become a better father” is said by Wriothesley, that was like my step-dad speaking there. It’s the fact that Wriothesley is a orphan, JUST LIKE MY STEPDAD, they both share the same motive of making sure these kids in issues with custody are safe and won’t be orphans themselves. I always ask my step dad, “why did you decide to be my step-father?” he told me “I knew what I was getting into, all that family drama, but I did it because I saw you as my daughter ever since I first met you and your mother” he wanted to help me and give me a father figure that my bio dad refused to be. That and the little girl, who reminds me SO much of my younger self, had me in tears over this teaser. I never expect a Genshin teaser to be so sentimental to me for being a source of relatedness to me, but this one will forever be in my heart.

"Love should be warm" -Wriothesley Couldn't said it any better myself.

This guy is seriously so cool, I can't wait for the day I hear him say ORA on every punch he make

“Love should be warm…but to you it has become a punishment” that hit me-

I love his character. It's like a balance between being harsh and sympathetic. I think as an emissary of solitary inquity makes him appear ruthless, but wishing the man to be a better father once he's free, hints to Wriothesley's empathetic side too. Hope I'll be able to pull this guy 😀 ❄️ 🩵 ❄️

Many leaks pointed to him having a vampy/emo persona and look, and I'm so glad they developed his character and wrote him so well. A strong sense of justice, honor, integrity, and family... TT breaking our hearts out here (and stolen mine since the 4.1 trailer)

Everything about Wriothesley is well done . Love his personality, he has a cool design and unique fighting style.

Theres something really hard hitting about this, it feels so personal especially with how these things are also happening in real life. I dont know it just feels so real, vulnerable and heartbreaking

1:45 sir I will make u a father

I wonder if the little girl is Lauren, from the one letter in Wriothsleys Story Quest...

To me, he’s one of the most interesting characters as of yet. He’s kind but strict, showing himself to be tough on the outside to hide the pain of his past. I can’t wait for more of him in the future!! Good luck to everyone pulling for Wriothesley, I’ll definitely be getting him 🤍

Wriothesley telling him to become a better father is so real He really does consider Sigewinne as his daughter (it's not that deep man it's just a joke)

"Next time you see your daughter, I hope you'll have become a better father..." "Sir... I just ate some Ketchup on its own."

“ I hope you become a better father” with such conviction ahhhh. Wriothesley my man, i will get you on your rerun! pls wait for me :(

Good luck to all Wriothesley wanters! He's out there being father to half of Teyvat with Baizhu and Zhongli.

Loving the whole 'upholding justice' trope of all the fontainians. Good luck to everyone pulling for Your Grace!

Wriothesley teaser before :) Wriothesley teaser after story quest :(

I uh.. I find it *interesting* we're getting this subplot in a trailer like this.. like Wrio-boy is an Orphan, Arlecchino is called "Father" by her children.. Idk maybe I'm stretching but with Fontaine's rule of 3 (3 Fatui Siblings, 3 Thrones at the Opera House Courtyard, 3 gods of Hydro, Erinneyes being a reference to the 3 Fates of Greek myth.) I can't help but trudge on the crumbs of possibly a parental related literary metaphor/device afoot.

Tapped as soon as I saw this notification! So excited for him got 200 wishes for him and Furina >:)

He's very professional, maintaining a friendly face in front of the girl but dropping it once she's gone.

I think this is super sad cause I think this is the guy who died is the beret society prison cells 😢 who wrote about saying sorry and goodbye to his daughter Lauren

0:10 so hes the duke, deals with underground kinda shady stuff, hot, he's basically a manhwa guy...

As someone that didn't have my Dad there 100% as a Kid due to reasons This trailer resonates and is so well done. Properly showcases all sides. Something I wish more medias did. Wait: Just to be clear Dads is fantastic and is the goat.

1:08 Can we just talk about THE MUSIC ? AS ALWAYS, HOYO KNOWS WHEN IT'S TIME TO GET EMOTIONAL

From the moment I heard “Your Grace”, I knew it …. This is gonna be one the best character❤

I was not expecting this to be so sad 😭 but I love how they show Wriothesley's compassionate side (can't wait for his demo 🙈❤️)

Oh this hit right in the feels, my heart Wriosthesley is such a good character, the subtlety here of his backstory ❤❤❤❤

IM PULLING FOR HIM GOOD LUCK GUYS(the video is amazing, I can really see him being like this, the attentive and strict person who hopes better for such a prisoner, or that they'll become a better person.)

- “Cryo Alhaitham does not exist, he cannot harm you.” - Cryo Alhaitham:

This hit really hard.. although it was expected and all. This man truly understands the meaning of family more than that father in question.

Aghhh I’m so glad they did him so well!! Also love the choice for English VA! It fits him perfectly. Honestly love me some Zhongli and Alhaitham BUT I have never been so excited to pull for a character! I’m eager to see where his story goes and learn more about him! Best of luck to all my fellow Wriothesley wanters!!! 😤💪🏼❤️ Here’s some tea to help with your summons! 🫖☕️

The voice acting and animation is incredible. Wriothesley is such a good character. 🥺😊

And now that I finished his story quest, I understand this in a different way...

1:34 is it bad that I'm jealous of this guy

Just noticed You can see that little girl running around near katheryns... And she talks about his father being a snezhnayan👀

Dude has a big heart for sure

I thought this was the dad that wrote the final letter to his daughter from the cell in wriothesley's story quest guess not, he had greyish hair in the quest so that's all in my head now lol

He looks sooo cool!!!!! 🤩🤩

Did anyone else feel like there was some really dark undertones to this story the father getting arrested I cant spell his name but Wriestholy saying that he is using his love as a form of punishment and he hopes he becomes a better father like ooooof

Literally have been saving ever since his first appearance, and the more that they show his character I love how he is written even more! Good luck to everyone while pulling for him!!!!

I was today years old when I realized that the little girl here is Veta, the one always running around by the guild kiosk and crafting table in the Court of Fontaine. Damn. I'll never be annoyed by her ever again. She has my utmost sympathy.

Wriothesley is really a very cool person in terms of personality, appearance and strength, not only despite being a martial artist but he is a very nice guy as he always Help and protect your ideals, wrio deserves to be the character you choose

i hope everyone gets him at one pity double five stars 😻😻😻

The fact he’s voiced by Joe Zieja makes me so happy. Gavin number 2

what an amazing scene! Genshin is rich on story, not only cute & fancy tale, but it also have dilemma & sad tale.

I swear he's so wholesome, I'm defintely pulling for him, please come home to me wriothesly, good luck to everyone else too:DD

It's interesting how he's actually an outlaw. Yep, it was mentioned in a story quest. Anyway, looking sharp, first Cryo Catalyst!

He seems like a fascinating guy, and I like his look and love his voice.

Can we just appreciate how amazing the animation is

So excited for Wrio. Darn that ending had me in the feels.

This is the first character I plan to pull solely because of his looks (and personality). I just hope I love his plagstyle as well! I have about 110 wishes and abt 30 pity :3

So much to unpack in such a short teaser

0:38 they nerfed the bakery 😢

Don’t we all think hoyo needs a raise on these amazing videos? And good luck to all if you want Venti or Wirothesley!

I'VE BEEN WAITIN FOR THIS

this trailer really shows the side of wriothesley that we only got to see for a few moments. as chill as he can be, there are times where he will not tolerate the guilty.

Ladies and Gentlemman, our first Cryo Catalyst. Truly the wait will be long worth it from personality alone. Been looking forward to a prison warden as well coming from the Nation of Justice. For all of you fighting 50-50 I hope he finds you favorably. As for those garanteed, I wish you an Early 5-star and plenty of primos in your travels for all.

i really love Wriothesley's personality and Design I'm definitely pull for him and become my favorite after Childe ❤❤

This video makes me wanna pull him so badly, i swear his character is just so good. Fontaine is spittin out great personalities !!

Lost Neuvillette to Keqing and decided to start saving and use my guarantee for Wriothesley.. A hard decision but I don't think I'm gonna regret it. Wriothesley is sooo cool!

I feel like he's gonna be one of my favorite characters because this was a nice introduction.

0:29 excuse me but where is the cake?

That's one of the reasons I love that Character sm He seems to have a soft spot for children despite of looking intimidating ❤

Can't wait!!! Good luck to everyone pulling~~

Good luck to everyone for pulling wriothesley👍

The feels 😭

I'm excited for a new story quest, I've finished all of them and I love them so much.

He’s so fine, I’m skipping Neuvillete for him (gonna get him in his rerun I guess)

I-.... Wriothesley, he is really an amazing character in every aspect!!! warm... soft... cool... and strong, he is the perfection itself!!♥ I REALLY LOVE YOU!!

There are so many layers in this.

this trailer… hit me the feels. i can’t wait to pull for him

good luck to everyone pulling for him

Wriothesley was so kind and considerate so as not to traumatise the little kid even though he was there to collect her daddy, the ending line tho somethnig for the new inmate to contemplate.

You know hoyo needs to make the boots they design I love wriothesley boots

I feel like Wriothesley must be the one person in Fontaine who truly understands the delicate balance there is between morals and righteousness, that is, what Justice actually should be. Not even Neuvillette seems to have it figured out nor does he follow this sense of justice like Wriothesley does. Hoyo really did hit the nail with Wriothesley's introduction in the story and this trailer as well, his VA both in English and Japanese are amazing as well. I. Can't. Wait. 🙏 He's coming home. Good luck to everyone pulling for him!
