After 2 hours from premiere it become No.7 on Bilibili and got 400k views on Youtube, and only growing.
New Nod-Krai characters:
Nicole Reeyn of the Hexenzirkel, codename "N"
In the past, Nicole was a messenger of Celestia.
But later, due to the betrayal of the First Angel, all her sisters were cast out of the heavens and cursed, causing them to begin losing their forms and sanity.
However, Nicole managed not to degrade into a fairy. It was all thanks to her transformation into a human.
Still, the witch had to sacrifice something — her voice. She is mute and can only speak through telepathy in people’s minds.
Nevertheless, as seen in the trailer, she still kept her little wings.
Interesting and meme-worthy facts about Nicole:
Nicole is mute (but can speak in people’s minds through telepathy)
The Witch has terrible, messy handwriting
In one of her tales, Andersdotter called her a sow (boar-woman)
Nicole’s majestic and mysterious manner of speaking is fake. It was Alice who advised her to speak that way to maintain a noble image. In reality, Nicole is very simple and talkative
Alice gets a headache when Nicole gets into her mind and chatters
The Angel is into sculpture
When Skirk first found herself in Teyvat, she had the urge to ask Nicole a few questions. But she changed her mind, thinking:
“God forbid, with her personality, she’ll never leave me alone…”
Aino
Varka
Why does Varka have the Wolf's Gravestone sword?
When Andrius first came to Mondstadt, he was accompanied by a companion. A nameless knight who came to be known as the "Knight of Boreas."
He is the original wieler of the Wolf’s Gravestone, and the one who performed many good and heroic deeds in Mondstadt.
When Andrius died, the Knight made a grave for him and thrust his sword into the stone at that place.
From that moment on, the Knight left the city, once again wandering with the wind like a lone wolf, nurturing a longing for freedom in his heart. Wolf’s Gravestone
After his departure, the title of “Knight of Boreas” was preserved in Mondstadt and began to be passed on to the worthiest.
Varka is its current bearer in this generation.
The first Knight of Boreas and Varka are very similar: same weapon, same outfit (the Knight of Boreas also wore a cloak and armor), both are knights, both are freedom-loving, and both are connected to wolves (the name Varka means “wolf”).
