  • I. New Character
    • 5-Star Character "Vigilant Yaksha" Xiao (Anemo)
    • Vision: Anemo
    • Weapon: Polearm
    • A yaksha Adeptus who defends Liyue. Also heralded as the "Conqueror of Demons" and "Vigilant Yaksha."
    • Elemental Skill "Lemniscatic Wing Cycling": Xiao instantly lunges forward, dealing DMG to enemies in his path. This maneuver can also be executed in mid-air.
    • Elemental Burst "Bane of All Evil": Xiao dons the Yaksha's Mask, giving him enhanced abilities at the cost of draining his health: He deals increased DMG, attacks are converted to Anemo DMG, and his jumping ability is greatly increased.
    • During the event wish "Invitation to Mundane Life," from after the Version 1.3 update to 2021/02/17 15:59:59, the event-exclusive 5-star character "Vigilant Yaksha" Xiao (Anemo) and the 4-star characters "Kätzlein Cocktail" Diona (Cryo), "Uncrowned Lord of the Ocean" Beidou (Electro), and "Blazing Riff" Xinyan (Pyro) will have their Wish drop rates greatly increased!

    • Vision: Electro

      • Lithic Blade (4-Star Claymore)
