The Seven - Six gods and one human (Pyro Archon), victorious in the Archon War 2,000 years ago. Each holds a Gnosis, connects to Celestia, and governs with their ideals.

They once held immense power, but lost both their status and authority when the Heavenly Principles came to Teyvat and established a new order. Celestia - Floating island where gods reside, overseeing Teyvat. Vision holders are candidates for ascension. Heavenly Principles - Silent deity overseeing Celestia and Teyvat since the cataclysm 500 years ago. The Abyss Order and Fatui seek to overthrow it. The Fatui - Powerful Snezhnayan organization led by the Eleven Harbingers under the Tsaritsa. Known for deception, experiments, and seeking the Gnoses to create a "perfect world." The Abyss Order - Secret group opposing Teyvat’s nations and gods. Capitano has fought them. Visions and Delusions - Visions grant elemental powers; Delusions, created by the Tsaritsa, grant powers at a life cost. Cataclysm - 500 years ago, Khaenri'ah fell after challenging Celestia. It led to the Abyss Order and Fatui’s creation. Khaenri'ah - Underground nation outside Celestia's influence, destroyed by gods. "Pure-blooded" Khaenri'ahns are cursed with immortality, while others became monsters. Khaenri'ah remains sealed beneath Sumeru.

Backstory: Capitano, a prominent Khaenri'ahn Commander, earned renown for his exceptional deeds, which led to him being granted a genetically modified heart by Khaenri'ahn technology, allowing him to absorb souls and convert memories into knowledge via the Ley Lines. During the cataclysm, he witnessed Khaenri'ah's fall, fled to Natlan with his platoon, and fought alongside Ayizu, leader of the Masters of the Night-Wind. In Natlan, the destruction of its Ley Lines caused the souls of the dead to linger in torment until they faded into nothing, prompting the formation of the Night Kingdom—a haven where only Natlanese souls could rest in peace. Xbalanque, the first Pyro Archon, had previously bargained with Ronova, the Shade of Death, agreeing that the use of her power required a worthy death in exchange. During the Natlan crisis, Mavuika and six heroes tapped into Ronova's power to halt the Abyss, summoning Ronova to witness a grand death as repayment. Mavuika offered to sacrifice herself to sustain the Lord of the Night, ensuring the Night Kingdom’s survival for centuries, but Capitano intervened with an alternative. He proposed sacrificing his immortal life to permanently merge with the Lord of the Night, granting it immortality and ensuring the Night Kingdom would last forever. Bound by her rules, Ronova accepted Capitano’s offer, as it fulfilled the debt. Capitano’s consciousness was sent to the Night Kingdom, while his body remained on the Throne of the Primal Fire. However, weeks later, Capitano returned to the mortal realm, merged with the Lord of the Night and freed from the agony of absorbing souls. Despite still bearing the curse of immortality, he resumed his duties as the First Fatui Harbinger, serving the Tsaritsa and continuing his mission to overthrow Celestia.

Notes:

• His immortality curse makes him immune to death but causes rotting flesh. While aging stops, his body decays, weakening him over time. Merging with the Lord of the Night restores his strength to what it was before, slowing the rotting process but not eliminating it. With this power, he’s as strong as one of the Seven Sovereigns.
• After merging with the Lord of the Night, he became the King of the Ley Lines, allowing him to change their rules and weave them with immense power.
• When Capitano’s soul awoke in the Night Kingdom, he cried with relief and joy. His comrades’ souls could finally rest, and the tormenting voices went silent.
• To stay sane over 500 years, he mastered countless hobbies like carving, pottery, and playing various instruments. This has made him unexpectedly romantic when the chance arises
