SomeGenshin Impactplayers on the game’s Reddit page have noticed that there is an eye on Neuvillette’s palm, and his horns glow while performing charged attacks. These interesting details could be related to the character’s true identity, which many think is the Hydro dragon. He has obviously glowing body parts likeGenshin Impact’s Archons, such as Barbatos, Raiden Shogun, and Nahida. As for the blue eye on his palm, some players claimed that it could be a tattoo or other body modification.

In the comments section, fellowGenshin Impactplayers said that the character couldn’t be an Archon, considering it’s Neuvillette’s horns that glow, not his hair. Also, some speculated that he will be the first elemental dragon character with a powerful skill set. Players will have to wait until the release of version 4.1 to learn his true identity.

Genshin Impact’s Neuvillettehas been one of the most anticipated characters since his first reveal. Some previous leaks have given players a glimpse into his skill set, revealing that the character’s charged attack will deal AoE damage with a rupturing ring of water. His elemental skill, on the other hand, will summon a waterfall and deal Hydro damage to multiple enemies. Neuvillette’s signature weapon is called Tome of the Eternal Flow, which enhances his survivability by boosting HP. This five-star Catalyst also buffs charged attack damage by 12% when the character’s HP increases or decreases.
