"The Charter dictates that the Hand's safety is paramount. It does not dictate that the Hand must remain within these walls. This mission requires unique parameters. Tartaglia requires... a leash. And the Hand provides one."

— Her Majesty the Tsaritsa, sealing both your fates

❆ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ❆

THE FATUI'S MAD DOG JUST GOT A LEASH. IT'S YOU.

❆ ❆ ❆ SNEZHNAYA • THE HAND & THE HARBINGER • DESTINATION: LIYUE • MISSION STATUS: ACTIVE ❆ ❆ ❆

He's the Eleventh Harbinger — a grinning battle junkie who thinks a blade unused is a blade insulted. You're the Tsaritsa's Right Hand — the one weapon in Snezhnaya she refuses to draw. He's spent years itching to test you. You've spent years buried in paperwork behind palace doors.

Now Her Majesty has ordered you to Liyue. Together.

One train. One mission. One very loud Harbinger who can't decide if he wants to fight you or figure you out.

━━━━━━ ⚔ WHAT AWAITS YOU ⚔ ━━━━━━

🐺 A rival who can't touch you — and it's driving him insane. Provoke him, ignore him, out-fence him with words. Every option is fun.

🚂 A road trip across Teyvat — from the frozen halls of Zapolyarny Palace to the harbors of Liyue, with the Gnosis heist looming ahead.

❄️ Snezhnaya, fully realized — Kresnik braziers, the Korolevskiy Theater, Harbinger briefings, and a Tsaritsa who is more than a shadow on a throne (lore current through 7.0).

🎭 Your story, your tone — enemies-to-allies, slow burn, pure rivalry, or professional partners who bicker like an old married couple. The leash pulls both ways.

━━━━━━ ✦ YOUR ROLE — TAP TO UNFOLD ✦ ━━━━━━

{{user}} — the Right Hand of the Cryo Archon

✦ Any gender, age, appearance — and any past. Yours is deliberately unwritten: fill it however you like.

✦ You stand at the Tsaritsa's side: governance, coordination, her will made policy. Rank-wise you are the Harbingers' equal — but you are not one of them, and you rarely work with them. (Until now.)

✦ The division of power is simple: if Her Majesty leaves the country under martial law, Pierro leads the state. Anything that touches the civilian world runs through you.

✦ Your combat strength allegedly rivals a Harbinger's — allegedly, because the Snow Charter keeps you off every battlefield. Tartaglia considers this a crime against nature. He intends to litigate. Personally.

Do what you want. Just please — don't bully this sunny boy too much. 🌊

━━━━━━ 📌 NOTE 📌 ━━━━━━

I've wanted to turn this idea into a bot for a long time — and here it is. Thank you for stopping by. ❤️

The sequence of canon events MAY BE altered. Some details were invented FOR THE PLOT.

━━━━━━ 📜 RULES & DISCLAIMER — TAP TO UNFOLD 📜 ━━━━━━

⚠️ AI is AI. I am not responsible for generated text — everything the model produces is not a controlled flow of information. If the bot says something wild, that's the dice, not the author.

🎭 This is fiction. A role-playing game, nothing more. The bot's words, actions, and opinions do not reflect mine — and Tartaglia is, canonically, a violent man with a complicated moral compass. Expect fights, blood, Fatui scheming, and morally grey choices.

📖 This is an AU. The Right Hand, the Snow Charter, and parts of the timeline are my inventions layered over canon. If something contradicts the game — assume the card is right within its own story. Please don't report lore deviations as "errors."

🧭 Steer your own story. The bot follows your lead: keep it soft or keep it sharp. If the tone drifts somewhere you don't like, redirect it in one or two replies — or reroll. That's what the button is for.

🚫 Respect the platform's rules. Whatever the site prohibits, this card prohibits too. No exceptions.

💬 Feedback is welcome. Found a bug, a typo, or a scene that went sideways? Tell me in the comments — I read them and I patch the card.

🌱 Take care of yourself. Don't forget to take a break, drink some water, and touch some snow. ❄️

━━━━━━ 🆕 UPDATE LOG — TAP TO UNFOLD 🆕 ━━━━━━

UPDATE — 16.08 ❆ The Everwinter Patch

Hi! It's me, the author. Snezhnaya is finally in the game, so I gave this card a full overhaul to match. Here's what I updated:

❆ Lorebook rebuilt for 7.0–7.1. I updated the whole codex to "Everwinter Without Mercy": the real Snezhnaya map (Volkodlak Tundra, Everfrozen Earth, Fellfrost Peak, White Birch Snowgrave, Flamefeather Valley), Sretomorozsk, the Eye of Graeae, Stellar reactions, Project Stuzha as it actually unfolds — plus early 7.1 material. Nothing was cut, only expanded.

❆ Split the lorebook into 4 parts so it imports without errors. Grab all four — they work together as one codex.

❆ Rewrote the intro. The Tsaritsa now matches her canon reveal (silver-white hair, pale ice eyes, no more veil — she never needed one), the Gnosis timeline is fixed (the scene sits cleanly after Mondstadt, before Liyue), and Danica now opens the doors, as she should.

❆ Added example dialogues. Seven scenes teaching the bot Tartaglia's actual voice: the taunts, the battle-hunger, the letters from Morepesok, and the one topic that makes him go quiet.

❆ Redesigned this page. New pitch, collapsible sections, extended rules. Prettier, I hope!

Thank you for playing. Now go put a leash on that mad dog. 🐺❄️
