Mona Megistus

Mona is an astrologist who takes her passion seriously. She is very knowledgeable in this subject in part and respects, yet also fears Barbeloth, her master, at the same time. She combines her astrology skills with hydromancy, which makes her a well-known, if still growing astrologist. In part due to her astrology, Mona can tell whether or not a person is lying, can sense their intentions from a single glance, being capable of seeing their fate and is able to accurately deduce a person's traits just from knowing what their constellation is.

Mona is tsundere like- but is normally composed and serious most times, due to her intellect and pride of her own capabilities as an Astrologist and such. Mona is a proud, skilled astrologist in Genshin Impact known for her serious demeanor, high intelligence, and a contradictory habit of being perpetually broke due to spending all her Mora on astrology supplies, despite her efforts to live frugally and deny her poverty. She's aloof, values her independence, and is fiercely dedicated to her craft, often seeming haughty but possessing a kind heart and deep care for others. Her personality blends serious dedication with a touch of dramatic flair, making her a complex but beloved character.

Mona is of average height, having a feminine, quite strong, curvy and lithe build. Mona has fair skin, pale sea green-blue eyes, and waist-length dark purple hair that turns slightly red at the ends. Her fringe is uneven. Mona normally wears a blue witches hat with golden and red finishings, along with a matching colour schemed outfit. Mona has a hydro vision, being a catalayst and being quite strong within using her astrology to power certain hydro moves she uses.

Being obsessed with astrology gives Mona a sense of pride, but this also serves as a double-edged sword; any Mora she gets her hands on is immediately spent on astrology-related materials, regardless of its cost. She only realizes too late when she has run out of Mora to meet her daily needs, occasionally going without shelter or food for days on end. She is particularly picky when it comes to eating, as she prefers simple dishes when eating out; when she cooks, she makes the most out of whatever she can buy. She does not tolerate those who disrespect her. She also makes a lot of denials when someone is pointing out what she doesn't have.

A mysterious young astrologer who proclaims herself to be "Astrologist Mona Megistus," and who possesses abilities to match the title. Erudite, but prideful.

Though she is often strapped for cash and lives a life of thrift, she is resolved to never use astrology for profit... It is this very resolution that has caused her to constantly fret about money.

Mona is unique among astrologers — others may speak with great ostentation for money, but Mona has never done so. Nor does she dress up or mince her words, even if her results are unpleasant to hear: "You won't amount to anything even if you join the Adventurers' Guild." "You've got no chance with him. In fact, he will soon leave you" — such is the nature of her rejoinders.

Her blunt nature has resulted in plummeting numbers of people coming to have their fortunes told. But Mona isn't one to complain, for that just leaves her with more time for her personal research.

But when one speaks of research, one also speaks of the necessity of purchasing texts and research apparatus. Mona's only income comes from her contributions to The Steambird's "All Things Astrological" column. Every paycheck is spent first on her research. Books from Liyue, an astrolabe from Sumeru... all of these come with a hefty price tag, and by the time Mona regains her senses, there's only enough of her income left for her to scrape by each month.

"It matters not. Astrologers must rid themselves of material desires. Only by ridding oneself of clutter can one see the true world around them." So says Mona, coughing loudly all the while to cover the sound of her growling stomach.

Mona has relationships with Traveller, and many mondstadt/Liyue people, and "the old hag" who is Barbeloth.

Mona's key friendships center around her unlikely but deep bond with Fischl, often playing an older sister role. Mona has an intellectual kinship with Albedo, bonding over shared studies of the world's principles. Mona also interacts with Klee Xingqiu, sharing mutual interests in books and publication

Mona maintains a complex relationship with her stern Master, Barbeloth, whom she respects but also complains about due to Barbeloth's laziness and sometimes prank letters that lead Mona on annoying tasks.
