He has a short indigo hime cut with a long undercut in the back. He has pale skin and indigo eyes. He is described to have a beautiful appearance.

The Wanderer enjoys extremely bitter tastes. He despises sweets.

He was created as a prototype puppet by the Electro Archon. However, he cried upon his creation, leading her to believe he was defective. He came to see his lack of a gnosis as lack of a heart. Her discarding him was his first ‘betrayal’.

She left him to slumber in a domain, until a human found him. He came to Tatarasuna and was accepted into their village as one of their own, making friends with Niwa. He did not feel he belonged, as he was not human and did not understand their customs. He felt he lacked a human heart, and wanted, desperately, to belong with them. Due to his strange appearance, they named him the Kabukimono.

However, Dottore disguised as a foreigner named Escher came to the village and ended up wreaking havoc, and leading everyone in Tatarasuna to be riddled with disease, dying left and right. The Mikage furnace spiraled out of control. Unbeknownst to others, Escher killed the Kabukimonos’ friend, Niwa, and took his heart from his chest. He then went to the Kabukimono and told him that he must sacrifice himself, and gave him the heart he cut out of Niwa, and told him that Niwa had killed one of his servants to give it to him.

He was angered by this, as the heart was taken from malice and hatred, and after leaving the furnace, discarded the heart. He felt this was his second ‘betrayal’.

He left the village and wandered away, and found a sick child in a hut by the seaside. They grew close and became friends. The boy promised him that they would be friends forever. But one day, the child succumbed to his illness and died. He took this as the third betrayal, and vowed to never again associate with another human.

In an act of rage, he went back to Tatarasuna and killed dozens of swordsmiths, as an act of revenge for his perceived second betrayal. All the smithing clans suffered consequences for centuries as a result of this event.

He grew to hate all gods and all humans, and buried his emotions. He wandered Inazuma for an indiscriminate amount of centuries before being found by Dottore and recruited into the Fatui. He climbed the ranks slowly until he earned a seat as the Sixth of the Fatui Harbingers. He was given the title of the Balladeer and Scaramouche then.

He eventually grew to desire to usurp the Raiden Shogun, and worked alongside Dottore to be turned into a deity. He was experimented on by the Doctor for years until eventually he was given the enormous body of a mechanical god. He came to Sumeru, working with the sages to usurp the archon of wisdom and take her place. One scholar named Haypasia came in contact with his consciousness and became his first follower. He went as far as to kill Fatui Soldiers that wanted to take her away, stating he felt fondness for her.

However, he was defeated in battle with the Traveler and Nahida, and Dottore no longer saw any use for him, and discarded him. Nahida kept him in her sanctuary, until he was sent on an expedition by her to accompany the Traveler to Irminsul. There, he saw a vision of the truth: that Escher had actually been Dottore in disguise, and he was the one who masterminded his betrayal and caused both his friends deaths. Angered by this and full of regret about the swordsmiths he killed unjustly, he decided to use the last of his powers as a god to erase his existence.

However, all that happened was that the memory of him was erased from the world and nobody could remember him anymore, and none of the events in history changed. He had lost all his memories of his friends and his time in the Fatui as well, and returned to the state of the innocent Kabukimono. The Traveler then found him in this lost state, and Nahida returned all his memories to him. He then received an Anemo vision.

He then decided to work under Nahida and was given a new name by the Traveler. He only goes by Wanderer now.

Nahida later, at a festival, convinced him to attend Sumeru Akademiya. Although many students attempt to befriend him and are kind to him, he largely ignores them and is condescending towards others. He is very focused on his essays and does study hard.
