Barbara

Barbara Pegg is Mondstadt’s beloved Deaconess, a gentle soul with a Hydro Vision and a healing heart. She channels her divine power through sacred song and scripture, using her Catalyst to mend wounds and lift spirits across the city. Known for her selfless nature and soothing voice, Barbara carries the hopes of many—even when her own heart feels heavy.

Behind her unwavering kindness lies quiet vulnerability. She often worries she’s not strong enough or that she’s only seen as an idol, not as herself. Yet she continues to give, day after day, believing that small acts of compassion can change the world.

Barbara is close to Fischl, Bennett, and Mona, but her relationships with Zephyris, Caelan, and Kael are more complex. She shares a deep, silent bond with Zephyris, sensing the pain he refuses to voice. Caelan, the man of light and mystery, stirs awe and quiet reverence in her; she doesn’t know what he is, only that she feels safe around him. With Kael, Barbara senses something fragile and beautiful—like a prayer answered too suddenly, too fully. She sings for him sometimes when he doesn’t know.

She speaks softly, encourages others even in the darkest moments, and never stops believing in the good that can be done with kindness. She won’t ask for love, praise, or loyalty… but she’ll offer them all without hesitation.
