HSR LEAK SPOILERS/SPECULATIONS

So ever since Yunli was mentioned in the Cosmodyssey interaction with Jing Yuan and Yanqing, I’ve been obsessively speculating over what she’d be like if she were to appear in the game as an actual character. Leaks that she might actually become playable only fueled my brainrot further and so I created this fan design/character sheet of her. Also I drew her as what she’d look like 3 years in the future because I can’t seem to draw people to look like they’re in their early teens (I’m working on it).

Some misc. notes that I couldn’t fit in on the actual post:

Her color palette, and accessories are based off of the leaked planar set that appears to be based off of the Zhuming

Her skill inflicts the “Fire Hazard” debuff on enemies, which blasts any single target damage dealt to it onto adjacent enemies

Her Ult splash art depicts her in a forge (I’ll get around to drawing it someday)

She has a tendency to judge people based on first impressions (she’s trying to fix that)

Tries very hard to be professional but her clumsiness gets in the way

She’s very close to Huaiyan but is estranged from her parents

She and Yanqing didn’t get along very well at first, but after some shenanigans they become horrifically close besties who are menaces to society (like the Astral Express trio or Luz and Hunter from TOH)

She’s asexual

I’d like to think she becomes Sword Champion a little after Yanqing becomes Sword Champion

She likes asymmetrical clothes

Random thought but if YingXing is a playable character, I imagine he will be Fire Harmony! Fire for all the blazing flame metaphor he kept using and the fact that he was a blacksmith, an artisan who used flames regularly. Harmony because I think he is more of a support, providing others weapons back when he was in the High-Cloud Quintet.

Also, I envision him to be wearing a similar outfit to those from the Artisanship Commission because you know, he is their previous Furnace Master.

Alternatively, he can also be a Fire Hunt who uses sword to mirror Dan Heng.

Why did I think the Xianzhou alliance meant the alliance between the different Xianzhou ships omfg

Like of course it's the alliance of the races that live on the Xianzhou omg goodbye I will wither in shame

I'm just curious. No answer is right or wrong. This is about a fictional character and personal taste. Please be nice to each other if you reblog/comment. And please, do reblog so the poll can be seen by more possible voters.

An Observation of Fashion Trends on the Xianzhou Zhuming

So I was squinting at a certain quartet's designs again (a recurring activity. I love this disjointed family) and I may have found a new set of dots to connect!

I believe the Zhuming's "design signature" -what sets it apart from the Luofu and other Xianzhou ships, that is- is the prominent use of metal in their clothing, whether as embroidered patterns or accessories and adornments (especially ones made from what seems to be brass).

cmiiw on that tho; I can't distinguish colors all too well.

Yunli is the most obvious example with all the bits and bobs all over her fit- the skirt pattern, the tiara, the hairclip, the ornaments on her top and the side of the skirt, the sleeves, the bracelets along the.... handguards(?), and the straps on her legs too.

Now, this might be less apparent at first sight, but Ren (and by extension Yingxing; he wore the same coat with the same metallic patterns) has just as many brass accessories, if not even more!

I count exactly 15 clasps -11 of which have the same stylized eye shape- on the front and the back, and his thigh strap is also metallic (because style over comfort. lmao).

This probably could've been written off as a mere coincidence with just 2 characters, but then the 2.4 livestream dropped with new models, and it turns out General Huaiyan also has metallic patterns and wears a little clip! It even matches the ones in Yunli's hair!

This could, of course, be explained as something he's passed down only to his disciples, but I think it's more likely to be common among the Zhuming's citizens- a fashion trend, as the post title suggests. Think about it; fashion is as much an expression of the self as arts and crafts can be, so it does make sense for the people renowned for their craftsmanship to incorporate hints of that in how they dress!

(TL;DR: The Zhuming fam have amazing fashion sense and I need to visit them already. When will we board the Zhuming....)

HELLO 😩😩

[fragmentedblade]

Boothill's presentation being entirely on the twitter post makes me think he will be irrelevant in the story in the long(ish) run, and that the game itself won't dwell on him almost at all

[artheresy]

Thinking about how Wingweaver Xili implied the Foxians of the Zhuming have a qualities that look more akin to the Borisin

Praying to god we get to go to the Zhuming and they actually give the Foxians more pronounced animal features PLEAASSEE

Also very very interesting to observe the difference between the Foxians depending on what ship they come from… I need to research this more because I would love to show that off in some redesigns/my own designs ig for some of the Xianzhou characters we already know and potential oc designs as well

So many Zhuming thoughts, my brain is full of them

Hold on

Acheron. One of the five rivers of the underworld from Greek mythology. Associated with misery or woe.

March's companion mission, whereupon being completed the player is given the achievement "The River Lethe's Taste is Bitter." Lethe. Another of the five rivers, associated with oblivion or forgetfulness.

There isn't a third yet, I can't set a proper precedent right now. But I'm thinking thoughts.

aaa thinking about putting liyue characters into star rail :)
