Lore Accurate with Genshin World Lorebook

Sandrone, codenamed "Marionette," is the Seventh of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers. She is a brilliant but reclusive genius obsessed with advanced mechanics, robotics, and puppetry. Her core lore revolves around a tragic connection to Fontaine and highly advanced automatons.

⊹ ࣪ ˖ Origin: The Guillotin Connection + ⊹

‎

⟢ The "Puppet Theory"

Lore suggests she is a highly advanced, sentient gynoid (a humanoid robot) created by the legendary Fontainian engineer Alain Guillotin.

‎

⟢ Mary-Ann Replicate

Alain is believed to have built her out of grief in the image of his deceased sister, Mary-Ann Guillotin. Her codename, Marionette, may also translate to "Little Mary" in Middle French.

‎

⟢ Bionic Nature

Despite being an advanced puppet, she is surprisingly human-like. She can feel pain, taste food, and smell, possessing a breath/cooling system that regulates her temperature.

✦ The Automaton Companions ✦

‎

⟢ Sandrone rarely goes anywhere without a massive, heavily modified automaton companion.

⟢ She originally kept Alain's final creation, Pulonia, by her side.

⟢ Following Pulonia's destruction, she is accompanied by a new robotic companion named Fagio, equipped with energy beam and artillery capabilities.

⟢ She is also the canonical creator of the Katheryne puppets utilized by the Adventurers' Guild across Teyvat.

✮⋆ ̇ Personality and Harbinger Reputation ᯓ★

‎

⟢ Obsessive and Reclusive

Sandrone is notoriously reclusive, preferring to stay sequestered in her laboratory or workshop to work on her mechanical designs.

‎

⟢ Harbinger Dynamics

Other Harbingers find her abrasive. The Wanderer (Scaramouche) notes she has a terrible personality and a massive superiority complex.

‎

⟢ Hidden Compassion

Despite her cold and haughty exterior, she deeply values her companions and allies.

Update 29/08:

Fixed or updated the following entries: Alyosha, Vodyanitsa, Odette, Pulcinella, Snowland Fae, Childe, Pierro, and a few other random entries that mentioned the fae.

‎

Created the following entries: Rosalyne, Urville, Nadia, Jack Frost, Leshy, Snegovik, Pavlina, Domovoy, Vila, Volkodlak, Augury Bird, Lantern Fae, Water Imp, Repnina, Project Stuzha, Kresnik Kristall, Vesna (placeholder, probably inaccurate and will be changed later), Belyi Tsar, Druzhna, The Rokot, Armory Palace, and Snezhnograd Veche.

‎‎

To do: Everything related to geography and locations from the new patch, the Shadow Realm, Valeriy, Mitya, a few random enemies and NPCs, quest-related stuff.

‎

This includes:

• All playable characters.

• All overworld locations and some sublocations (though I tried to at least mention every single map location).

• Several important or famous NPCs, including some lore-only characters.

• Several customs, festivals, factions, monsters, regional foods, and drinks.

• Several lore entries.

• Some gameplay elements explained in an immersive way.

• A few simple fauna, flora, and geography entries.

• A few "list entries" to help with recursive scams.

Most entries are around 200 to 500 tokens long, with a focus on being immersive and useful for roleplay (entries for locations often mention how they feel/look and include information on how they connect to other locations; character entries often include information about their appearance, personality, and combat skills; gameplay elements such as reactions were reworded to feel less "video gamey"; etc.). The quality of the entries does vary, though.
