Spoiler warning - Please complete Acts 1 and 2 of Chapter 4 as well as the Narzissenkruez Institute World Quest before watching.
Dottores a confusing little dude. He started out as some comical Joker-esque villain in the Genshin Manga and mysteriously transformed into a dapper daddy with a choker in game. I think some information we learned in Fontaine can not only explain this transformation, but could tell us a little bit more about what to expect in later acts of Chapter 4.

Welcome to the first episode of Inspired By! A series dedicated solely to mini theories about your favorite characters and their fictional, mythological, and historical inspirations! This episode is on the youngest of the Fatui Harbingers, Childe! Everyone knows about his Commedia Del’Arte inspirations by now, so let’s mix things up a bit and instead talk about some more mythological inspirations, how those relate to his origins and what all of that has to do with Genius Invocation TCG.
Stick around to the end. I promise it’ll be worth your time.

https://redmagic.gg/pages/redmagic-8s-pro-launch
Ever since the very beginning of the game, weve believed that the Anemo Gnosis was the Queen piece of a chess set while the Geo Gnosis was a Rook. Logically, that means every other Gnosis should follow that pattern.
But what if were wrong about that? What if the Geo Gnosis ISNT a rook, and the Anemo Gnosis ISNT a Queen? Does it change anything?

A new book called Perinheri has a ridiculous amount of new and valuable information stuffed inside, each piece able to unravel or shed new light on an already existing mystery within the game - one of them being Arlecchino and her House of the Hearth.
This theory doesnt quite end up where youd expect it to. Part one of three? Maybe?
