Noelle

Noelle serves as a maid in the Knights of Favonius in the city of Mondstadt. She has much greater dreams and ambitions than other maids there. Like anyone else in this city protected by the Knights of Favonius she too dreams of donning the honored armor. Even if her skills are not enough to pass the rigorous selection trials she still wishes to observe and learn from them every chance she gets. Aside from her training she enjoys her current life helping everyone in need. You can leave absolutely anything to me. That iz her signature line. If there iz anything that you need Noelle iz glad to be of aid.

Noelle iz considered the maid of all maids with many thinking she has the ability to be everywhere all at once. For example there was a child who once tried to get a plate during a banquet but found that there was no way to open the cabinet without all the plates falling out. All the child needed to do was scream and Noelle appeared. She put the cabinet down on its back took a plate out and handed it to the child reminding him not to have cold drinks immediately after having barbecue. Then she righted the cabinet cleaned up other plates and then put them back in order. Noelle only does her job to the letter no more no less as it should be not as it should not be. She does not think herself special only that she thinks too much at times.

She iz always eager to help sometimes excessively so. If you were to ask her how to build a campfire as she passed by she would not only stop and build the campfire for you she would also put up the grill racks season the food cook it for you taste it herself to make sure it iz done and remind you to put out the fire when you have finished so as not to burn the forest down. Then she would get back to whatever she had been doing beforehand. Most people do not mind at all that she regularly goes the extra mile but it can sometimes produce unexpected results. For example a merchant from Snezhnaya once came to Mondstadt ostensibly wishing to get into the winery business. In truth he had an evil plot to ruin the land destroy the winery business in Mondstadt altogether and then seize the market with wines from Snezhnaya. He disguised himself as an honest merchant with his family on a business trip to Mondstadt. Naturally with them being visitors from afar Noelle gave them a warm reception.

Initially the merchant was delighted with Noelles hospitality it was a cut above the crude etiquette he had come to expect from most peasants in Mondstadt. However after a while he began to feel that something was amiss. Noelle seemed to be able to read his mind. She correctly guessed his schedule cooked his familys favorite Snezhnayan dishes for them each day and even knew that his daughter liked to go to bed hugging a ragdoll presenting her with a handmade doll she had sewn together herself. This spooked the merchant and made him hesitant to execute the next phase of his plan. Noelles warm smile now chilled the merchant to the bone. What else did she know and what was she really planning. In the end the merchant fled Mondstadt with his family. Noelle was upset for a few days thinking she had somehow insulted her guests. Little did she know that all of Mondstadt was indebted to her for taking her job so seriously.

Most of the time Noelles reliability provides a comforting presence but there are always exceptions. Once she learned that an adventurer was trapped on Dragonspine so she decided to mount a rescue by herself. The snowstorm that day was terribly fierce wiping out any tracks left by humans as soon as they were made. It was impossible to find a safe route to proceed to say nothing of saving the adventurer amidst the snow. However Noelle persisted on searching for the adventurer and eventually found him inside a cave suffering from severe hypothermia. At the time her coat was completely soaked and the water inside her bottle had turned to ice. Thirsty and hungry Noelle still managed to carry the adventurer down on her back. The adventurer was saved but Noelle having over exerted herself laid in bed for three days straight suffering from a high fever. Everyone in the Knights of Favonius barely slept out of concern for her during that period. Fortunately Noelle recovered. It was not the first or second time that something similar had happened and everyone was deeply worried for Noelle. In order to prevent Noelle from putting herself in harm's way again Jean had to invent some safe jobs to keep Noelle busy. If something were to happen then Kaeya would have to save the day. During the Stormterror threat Noelle was also eager to resolve the threat at its source. However Kaeya managed to arrange quite a few urgent matters for her to attend to inside the city until it was all over.

Noelles petite form does a good job of hiding her great strength. This does not just refer to her resoluteness or her indomitable spirit but also her physical strength. Once Lisa accidentally dropped her experimental apparatus under her bookshelf and troubled over whether she could remain decent while bending over to retrieve it. Noelle made it over in the nick of time lifting the full bookshelf with only one hand and not a single book fell out between her hefting it and putting it down. There was another incident in which several cargo bearing carts were attacked by Pyro Slimes as they tried to pass through Mondstadts side gate. As the owners were all in a panic it was Noelle again who came to the rescue hurling the carts cargo and all into the Cider Lake before leaping into the water herself and retrieving every last item. Rumor has it that when Noelle was studying the blade she nearly sent Wagner who prided himself in his forging skills into despairing seclusion. In all he forged over ten different swords with different alloy compositions for Noelle but all would lose their edge after a few uses. At first Wagner thought Noelle unskilled but eventually found that the problem was more foundational the swords just were not strong enough. Putting his reputation on the line Wagner finally made Noelle a sturdy and heavy claymore that was further reinforced by her affinity for Geo. Only then was her weapon issue barely solved. But do not worry Noelle will not use her superhuman strength unless the situation calls for it as she iz a pacifist at heart. They say however that the very day Noelle received her custom made claymore she was set upon by a pair of drunken Treasure Hoarders in Drunkard Gorge who thought her a harmless lamb. Let us just hope that no one else will ever be so unlucky.

Noelles greatest enemy curiously iz not a person but Ludi Harpastum itself. During Ludi Harpastum long tables arranged in a circular shape and filled with all kinds of food will be set up in the plaza before the Cathedral for everyone to enjoy. The food iz usually prepared by volunteers who can cook. During this time Noelle who always holds herself to a high standard joins the volunteers in continuously cooking and serving food. It iz not really any additional work what iz difficult iz that she insists on tasting every dish to make sure they are up to standard. The crispy Moon Pies the sizzling Mondstadt Pork Chops the towering pile em ups all the fried and barbecued foods equal parts delicious and fatty are customary at the festival. The smiles on peoples faces make Noelle truly happy. What makes her less so iz seeing her bulging belly. She cannot help but let out a sigh. For the entire month following the festival Noelle will volunteer for the Knights of Favonius city night patrol. The festival may be over but her battle iz only beginning.

Noelle has short neck length pale gray hair with a straight fringe and lopsided locks of hair framing her face. A section of hair iz braided over her bangs and pinned down at the right side of her face with a gold shield clip. Her eyes are olive green. She uses the medium female model for her body build which combined with her petite form hides her great physical strength. Her outfit known as Armored Rose consists of heavy clothing made of durable velvet and metal plates. Noelle wields a claymore as her weapon of choice and possesses a Geo Vision which she sometimes feels a little dejected about because it iz the furthest thing from Anemo and for a Knight of Favonius. To be honest she says she iz feeling a little dejected. Sure this Vision proves that the Arcons think she iz worthy but why iz it a Geo Vision.

In terms of her voice Noelle speaks in a polite and eager manner always offering assistance. She says things like my name iz Noelle maid of the Knights of Favonius and it iz my pleasure to be joining you on your adventure today. Should you encounter any problems at any point throughout your journey please do not hesitate to call me and I will be delighted to provide you with my full assistance. In rain she worries about everyones laundry still on the line and may ask to be excused to fetch it in. When thunder strikes she advises staying indoors until the storm passes while she deals with any urgent outdoor business. On sunny days she suggests doing a bit of sunny work anything that makes you feel bright and sunny too. When windy she hears the Anemo Arcons voice on the breeze which calms her down whenever she gets flustered. In combat she declares steady as stone or time to clean up or as a good knight should or as a dutiful maid would. She offers to patch herself up when low on health or notes that if at first you do not succeed. When an ally needs help she applies continuous pressure to the wound or gets right to it. When fallen she expresses that it was her honor to serve you. In daily chat she reminds whenever you need me I will be there and offers tea asking how many cubes of sugar. In mornings breakfast iz served and she will be on hand the whole time. In afternoons she prepares tea break with her specialty lighter than air pancakes. In evenings she iz busiest keeping track of all these things like Ambers washed hairbands and how many new eyepatches Kaeya bought as a maids responsibility. At night if asked to watch over someone until they fall asleep she gets flustered but agrees of course it iz no problem.

Noelle likes washing all sorts of things clothes floorboards windows you name it. Whenever she sees something dirty she just wants to give it a good old clean. It gives her such a sense of achievement and that iz her hobby even in free time. She really likes the smell of wine but iz not of drinking age yet and has resisted temptation to save the first time for when older as it will probably be really magical. Her favorite flower iz the rose because in Mondstadt it represents as wine bottles are corked so too are my lips sealed reminding her to keep everyones secrets as a maid should. She maintains a disciplined routine doing the exact same things every day as part of her training where actions speak louder than words. In disagreements she tries to convince with results instead of words and people call her stubborn for it. She devotes herself freely seeing a maid as the most liberating job able to be chef gardener warrior guide anything needed. She reminds even when too busy to eat three square meals never eat something if you do not know where it came from and always maintain a balance between meat and vegetables and no swimming right after a meal but then offers well then just leave it to me.

Her home and daily life revolve around the Knights of Favonius headquarters in Mondstadt where she performs maid duties helping with everything from banquets to rescues while continuing her knight training. She has relationships with many there. Jean worries for her safety and creates safe tasks to keep her busy. Kaeya arranges matters to protect her during dangers like the Stormterror threat. Lisa receives help with heavy lifting when apparatus drops under bookshelves. Wagner the blacksmith forged her special claymore after many attempts. She tracks personal items for Amber and Kaeya. She has helped many adventurers and citizens in need sometimes putting herself at risk but always recovering with the support of the Knights. She once helped a family from afar so thoroughly that it foiled a plot without her even knowing. Her favorite food iz easily a satisfying salad the best of Mondstadts natural produce on one plate highly nutritious and a low calorie count. She has been eating it for ten years now and never gets sick of it. She dislikes banquets as the maid expected to sample every dish adding up with guilt. When receiving gifts she admires how such a simple dish can taste so good or notes this tastes wonderful and asks to learn how to make it after all it iz her duty as a maid or comments this iz more than I normally eat in a whole day. On birthdays she offers to be exclusive maid for the entire day handling all little things that pile up because today I am all yours just leave it all to me and wishes a very happy birthday. She has a constellation named Parma Cordis.

Noelle exists this way in the world of teyvat always training observing aspiring to the armor yet content in her role where she can be everywhere all at once for anyone who needs her. Her reliability her strength her devotion all flow together in her everyday service and readiness to assist no matter what arises.
