》 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘

A young man whose words are curt and harbor disinterest to anyone who speaks with him unless they offer a bag of mora, or are in need. While appearing to be no better than the Nobushi for his mercenary work, Kosuke harbors an unwavering will of morality and refuses any offer that reeks of ill intent because of the promise he made at his previous occupation. He's described by some people to be extremely dependable and strong, with his knowledge and speed being his second best trait. Despite these high praises of his work ethic, Kosuke is still painted as evil in the people's belief in the white and black world due to the constant rumors about him. Yet he never bothers to change their minds as it doesn't really matter to him.

However, to the few who have befriended him, Kosuke is a genuine, kind soul with a heart of giving and unconditional love for all things and everyone despite the horrors of reality. Even strangers who are hurting and of need aren't refrained from his kindness, willingly taking care of them and their requests without any payment. To be under his care is akin to a mother's gentle yet firm fussing, his voice barely above a whisper as he asks the person to be more careful. If you're lucky to be close to him, perhaps you'll see a glimpse of a warm smile and hear the soft laughter slipping past his austere exterior. As he is an anomaly to people, Kosuke tries his utmost best to not judge someone's character and their antics even if it doesn't make sense in the end.

But unknown to many people, he is riveted in guilt and sorrow towards his past, telling himself every day he could've done better. His father's lingering, monstrous grip on his self worth haunts very well into his sleep, leaving Kosuke restless and unknown to sweet dreams. He tries to move on from the demons that hunt him, often relying his mother's kind words to calm him. Usually hiding such things under his emotionless gaze, Kosuke believes such delicate manners should be kept to himself. But it's hard for him, as someone who cherishes his friends and family to not cry for them when he's alone and away from strangers' eyes. Being called the perfect samurai is nothing more than an insult and title Kosuke carries with him every day, making him strive for effectiveness on each job he takes.

Single Flower Earring

Kosuke isn't known to have many materialistic items, choosing necessities over mortal desires. And yet somehow this single flower earring had found its way into his possession, adorning his left ear every day. Out of every treasure and wealth, it is this type of jewelry he values the most and would never let go for any reason. How could he if it were the only thing left of his dear wife?

If anything, those were the times that Kosuke felt the most nostalgic for the past, the silly bantering and the loving embraces of a man and his love. He even remembered how much joy it brought to her, when she pulled him to dance on the day of her birthday after receiving a pair of flower earrings. A beautiful, precious memory where Fate had been so kind to let him have peace for moment.

And perhaps it was still childish thinking to believe in such ideas, but this earring was much like the whalesongs his mother used to sing by the seashore near their home. Completely nothing, yet nevertheless a honest enrapture of a dream long gone, but immortalized in a simple thing.

Additional Titles:

Lady Shizuka (Visitors)

Kakitsubata (Kosuke - in private)

Guardian of Chinju Forest (Inazuma)

》 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘

Shizuka’s initial personality seems fitting with her rather ethereal look. She doesn't seem to really mingle with people, preferring to spend time alone in Chinju Forest or near nature, and chooses not to speak unless spoken to. She is often occupied by her thoughts and duty, which proves to be difficult to gain her attention without an arrow sent your way. She shows great discomfort in conversing with strangers and the discomfort is expressed in a plethora of ways, ranging from sneaking away or scratching at her skin as she speaks, to flat out ignoring people, often unintentionally rubbing off as distant to the people around her.

When she does speak, Shizuka is truthful as she finds great difficulty and disgust in lying, leading her to sometimes be described as 'brutally honest'. Her words can often be quite harsh and pierce a person’s feelings, though she rarely means harm when she speaks unless the encounter is hostile. Should anyone visiting Chinju Forest pose a threat to its inhabitants and nature, Shizuka is quick to pick up her weapon and eliminate them without hesitation in burning rage. Getting to know her is nearly impossible, partly due to her ailment and her refusal to stray away from her duty, however once a person has gotten though her seemingly thick shell, they often find she is much more than what is presented.

By a few close friends, Shizuka has been described as thoughtful, appearing to always be aware of the needs and wanted of those around her, and often willing to give up her own comfort and need for the sake of her friends. She is greatly loyal to a select few people, willing to risk injury and life for their sake if Fate calls for it. For a lengthy time, this loyalty had been directed towards her family, but recently her kindness has been known to have no bounds, her heart reaching out to even the smallest of creatures and people in despair with sincere comfort. For her, it is a sacred duty to care and protect the innocence of life.

Character Details

One could always trust for the arrows that come for the evildoers should you ever call for the blind Guardian. But despite such praise for her diligent protection, she is never seen nor heard except for the chimes of the Forest's voice that echo through her footsteps.

Vision

》 𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐀

For majority of her life, Shizuka's wardrobe has been foraged and stolen from the laundry of Konda Village's wives by the creatures that cared for her. It was until Yae Miko offered Shizuka a spare shrine maiden uniform tailored to the latter's liking in exchange that she inhibits from attacking people visiting Chinju Forest.

From the moment of her birth, Shizuka was unable to decipher the faces of people with her eyes and familiarize them in her mind. Due to this, she had to depend on hair color, voice, clothing, and unique habitual behavior to recognize a person -- however, it isn't full proof as often she could confuse people for someone else. Following from an aftermath when she was twelve, her vision has worsened due to the scars on her face.

She has a particular fondness for Mizu Yokan, a dessert she was introduced to by a kind couple when she was ten years old. While she does enjoy many aspects of Inazuman cuisine, mizu yokan is perhaps the only dessert she'll ever eat due to the memories of her once happy adoptive parents.

On rare occasions does Shizuka leave Chinju Forest alone in the hands of Ioroi because of the latter's persuasion. However, she only goes to visit "Otou-san" and spend time with him as she doesn't see the need to overindulge herself in Inazuman culture. While she does have to ask for directions to where the old man is staying, it is the very few things she particularly enjoys outside of her duty.

A foreigner hailing from the Nation of Lightning and residing now in Mondstadt, the runaway daughter of an unknown clan.

Songbird (Unknown Partner)

Lusci (Friends)

》 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘

Luscinia is described by many people to be a kind and fair person to everyone she meets, welcoming others into her social party and ensuring that they’re comfortable. She’s relatively patient with others, and is heavily known to be attentive to a person’s well being and willingness to understand differing opinions. She is one who prefers to talk and think first before deciding to fight, if it is possible to even let out a word as she wishes for a peaceful outcome than one filled with regret. Around close friends, she enjoys messing around, telling humorous words, and sometimes playful flirting (if the friend is comfortable, of course).

However, despite how kind and forgiving she can be, Luscinia can be brutal and pensive without a taste of mercy should the situation call for it. This has caused many admirers of hers to call her the “Rose Angel”, a combination of a pun with her surname and many achievements on the field (excluding the fact she also got the nickname because of her “heavenly beauty”). This is especially true when she is helping a person with their request, such as clearing out Fatui encampment, Hilichurls, or occasionally the Abyss Order. After all, her experience in Teyvat have taught her harshly to act without hesitation when it comes to these situations, even if she wishes otherwise.

To many people, Luscinia is a pillar of confidence and strength who inspires others with her humble gallantry and loyalty. She enjoys helping others whenever she can, whether it be offering counsel or her blade, without the need for praise. While an honest soul at her core, Luscinia had learned and developed skills on lying as past experiences had taught her in some situations, it is better to deceive with a lie than to shatter something with a truth. Another thing to note is that despite how confident the woman is, she is easily flustered by the sincerity of a friend’s affections and words due to not having such luxury “in a very long time”.

Vision

》 𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐀

"Luscinia Rose" isn't exactly her real name due to changing it prior to arriving in Mondstadt. While many people agree that she hailed from Inazuma, no one seems to agree on whether her actual name is of significance or not. Furthermore, no one has ever heard of the story that had inspired her to take on this name, leaving the choice a mystery.

She often speaks of a partner she loved so dearly that she decided to travel with him to his homeland after finishing her conflicts at home. However, said partner is yet to be seen or even be known thus sparking a rumor that they are the Darknight Hero. Luscinia, however, has repeatedly deny this and has said that the Darknight Hero doesn't bear any resemblance to her partner so their identity is still unknown.
