PLAYER

Name: Luminitrium
Preferred pronoun(s): They/Them & She/Her
Contact:
discord = seraphkingdhaos#8538, plurk = leyfi

CHARACTER

Name: Dainsleif
Canon: Genshin Impact
Canon point: Post-Archon Quest Chapter 2: Act 4 “Requiem of the Echoing Depths”.
Nothing notable other than being cursed to hell and back.
Age: At least +500 years old.

Summary: Note: Contains spoilers for Dainsleif's backstory:

Dainsleif is a man who has been wandering the world of Teyvat for 500 or so years ever since he had been saddled with a curse that has enabled him to live on past the tragedy of the once-bolstering nation of Khaenri'ah. In the past, he was a knight captain of the royal guard. He is also a man who reportedly met with the Traveler's sibling (Lumine) many years ago and spent time journeying before their separation, as well as inevitable result of them being on opposite sides. While the Traveler's sibling sided with Dainsleif's mortal enemy, the Abyss, he of course was and is still against the faction.

He later befriends the Traveler, though he is a quiet man who mostly stays away from the hustle and bustle of most people in society. He's also an evidently loyal man, though outspoken about his disdain of the gods and the Abyss, but it is clear he still cares about his people, no matter the lengthy passage of time. This includes people he once previously knew (like Halfdan.)

Dainsleif is a stubborn individual, unafraid to fight and persist even in the face of a dangerous curse that causes him pain in each day of his life. He's perceptive, and always seeking knowledge or to better his position, holding a curious nature as well as unafraid to ask questions on things he lacks insight or particulars on. That being said, Dainsleif is not above giving praise or remarking on others who are unrelated to his goals, not exactly the type to resist giving his opinion when he sees fit to do so.

Powers/abilities: Immortality: Strictly of the non-aging variety; Dainsleif has received a curse that allows him to be frozen at his current age, no matter how many years have gone by. Though it grants him longevity, it also is implied/reference to be debilitating, causing pain at various, constant intervals. As a side note, if this 'curse' is removed from him, he will sustain irreparable damage to his body and eventually die (in what is implied to be a rather painful manner.)

Teleportation: Dainsleif has the ability to travel through teleportation portals that others cannot access (though he cannot control where he lands in those.)

Inhuman Speed: He is able to enhance his own speed with the power of a strange, unidentified energy/element that appears to take on an odd blue, whispy appearance whenever he utilizes it, trailing behind him a bit.

Telekinesis: Dainsleif is able to manipulate objects or things with a strange element from afar, which appears to be not too unlike a form of telekinesis as he can use this to throw people aside, increase pressure on their person, or keep them in place (restrain.)

Combat Skill: Dainsleif used to be a former knight captain and knows how to fight in battle, presumably with a blade as well as unarmed combat.

Inventory: Nada.

OTHER

Sentimental item: Inteyvat Flowers; specifically ones Lumine had laid out for hilichurls.
Gemstone: Red (primary), blue (secondary); appears traditionally "diamond-shaped" with a thin crack towards the back of the gemstone.

Lost memory #1: The first time he met Lumine; self-explanatory in that he doesn't his first 'meeting' of the blond female. The effect is notable in that it allows him to place further distance between himself and her; he already has resolved to face her consistently (and has), but first impressions are valuable, after all. It is one less golden memory he has of someone he once called a companion.
Lost memory #2: He no longer recalls the name of the Kingdom he hails from. This one doesn't affect him much because he is a devoted man to his mission regardless of the fact he is missing a piece of the puzzle. Though it might make him a bit uncertain of his current state, as if he's standing on shaky ground, and wondering if the curse afflicting him is the cause by this point compared to the other lost memory. It could make him more cold towards others, not wanting them to get any closer due to it...
Altered memory: Dainsleif now recalls Traveler/"Aether" as someone he has spent time with on more than a couple occasions, and having encountered him more often when he was supposedly alone in his original memory. In contrast, this does not alter his outside persona much, and simply changes how he views Aether as someone he's come to know a bit better.
