Sometimes it distracts with a feint, others it pretends to slip up and reveal a flaw... When things get serious, sleight of hand dazzles more than the magic itself. Can you guess what it is?

Overview
The Celebrated Magician of the Court of Fontaine. With the possible exception of the trials held at the Opera Epiclese, Lyney and Lynette's magic show is without a doubt the best live performance in the Court of Fontaine.
In contrast to Lynette, who is expressionless and curt towards everyone, he is a sociable person who is always cheerful, high-spirited, and overflowing with an entertainer's spirit.
A rare magician and good brother, he not only makes people happy with every gesture and word, but even after becoming famous, he does not settle for his current famous and always seeks freshness, and continues to develop his own magician style.
The audience speculates that this desire to improve is due to a hungry spirit that stems from his upbringing as a poor man, but in reality, it stems from his sincerity as a performer who always wants to fully burn out. For this reason, he never repeats the same magic trick on stage, and the audience sighs at his amazing skill and at the regret of not being able to see it again.
Talents
- Normal Attack: Card Force Translocation
- Normal Attack: Shoot up to 4 times in a row with a bow.
- Plunging Attack: Fires off a shower of arrows into the air that, upon hitting the ground, deals AoE Damage.
- Charged Attack:
Charge Level 1: Fires off a Pyro arrow, dealing Pyro Damage.
Charge Level 2: Fires off a Prop Pyro Arrow, dealing Pyro Damage, and also summoning a Grin-Malkin Hat.
When firing the Prop Arrow, and when Lyney has more than 60% HP, he will consume a portion of his HP to obtain 1 Prop Surplus stack. Max 5 stacks. The effect will be removed after the character spends 30 seconds out of combat.
The lowest Lyney can drop to through this method is 60% of his Max HP.
Grin-Malkin Hat : The Hat can attract enemies. Each opponent can only be attracted to the Hat once in 5 seconds. The Hat will inherit a portion of Lyney's max HP. If the helmet is destroyed or its duration expires, it will deal Fireworks Damage to nearby enemies. Only 1 Grin-Malkin Hat can exist at any given time.
Arkhe: Pneuma
At certain intervals, the Prop Arrow will cause a Spiritbreath Thorn to descend upon its hit location, dealing Pneuma-aligned Pyro Damage.
- Elemental Skill: Bewildering Lights
Step right up!
And... voila!
Now, disappear!
Lyney creates fireworks and deals AoE Pyro Damage to nearby enemies, and clears all current Prop Surplus stacks. Damage increases according to the stacks cleared, and restores Lyney's HP.
When the Grin-Malkin Hat previously created by Lyney appears on the field, fireworks will cause it to explode, dealing AoE Pyro Damage.
The Damage dealt through the Grin-Malkin Hat in this way is considered Charged Attack Damage.
- Elemental Burst: Wondrous Trick: Miracle Parade
Here comes the finale!
Let's get this show on the road!
A round of applause!
Lyney transforms into a Grin-Malkin Cat and moves around enemies, any enemies within Lyney's movement range take Pyro Damage. At the end of the performance, Lyney will return to his original form and create fireworks, dealing AoE Pyro Damage to enemies around the fireworks and summons 1 Grin-Malkin Hat, and grant himself 1 Prop Surplus stack (Grin-Malkin Cat can be actively canceled).
- 1st Ascension Passive: Perilous Performance
If Lyney consumes HP while firing off a Prop Arrow, the "Grin-Malkin Hat" summoned by the arrow will restore 3 Energy to Lyney (when hitting the enemy) and increase the Damage dealt by 80 % of his ATK.
- 4th Ascension Passive: Conclusive Ovation

About Other Characters
This part is about what Lyney thinks about the other characters in Genshin Impact.
You think my sister doesn't talk much? Oh, she's probably just not in the right mode. Next time, start by saying "Activate Chat Mode" to her. If you're lucky, she might have a great deal of things to say to you. Hmm, and if you're not lucky...? Well, she'll just stare for a while, but hey, at least you'll get to see a different side of her!
My sister and I have always been inseparable. There's no hardship we can't overcome as long as we're together, and similarly, we share all our joys with each other. There's nothing in the world I treasure more than my family, so I know what it must be like for you... And if I find out anything at all that might help you, I'll be sure to let you know.
My naive little brother still believes in fairy tales. I envy him, really. Uh, just to be clear though, he didn't actually tell me that. I just happened to see what he keeps in his secret drawer once... Really, it was an accident! So please don't tell him, or he'll get mad at me for sure.
"Father" gave us a family, raised us, and told each of us what we should work towards. In turn, what I can do is very simple... Remain loyal, and protect our home.
Ours is a kingdom consisting only of children, and "Father" is our king. No king rules forever, of course, and I know that one day I will be chosen as "Father's" successor... But that also terrifies me... Please don't mention this to anyone, especially my sister and Freminet.
Monsieur Neuvillette rarely appears in public, almost as if he's intentionally trying to put some distance between himself and the people. At first, I thought it might be just me, but my ever-observant sister noticed it too, so I suppose that must really be the case.
The Hydro Archon, Lady Furina, is very unpredictable, and her manner of speech can be quite provocative, almost as if she sees talking itself like some sort of performance. The people of Fontaine have a particular soft spot for excitement and drama, which is why many hold her in high esteem.
I didn't think that she'd be willing to help strangers like us. If it hadn't been for all of you, Lynette and I wouldn't have been acquitted... Thank you so much. I'll have to wait for a lovely, sunny day to invite everyone to Café Lutece for the most wonderful afternoon tea!
Charlotte has been trying to get me to agree to an interview ever since we met... Ugh, it feels like she's already asked twenty times now. She has a good nose for finding news, and she's the persistent type, too. But to be honest, I have no desire to find myself in the spotlight of one of her breaking news stories, and so I've found all sorts of reasons to decline each time.
Clorinde's quite famous as a Champion Duelist. But from what I've read in the papers, she seems to have gotten into a bit of a pickle. The media's been all over her story, and she's... Well, she's the type that definitely doesn't enjoy that kind of attention.
Have you ever gotten a whiff of the perfumes she makes? I quite liked them and was thinking to buy myself a bottle... But Lynette's tail indicated that she didn't share my opinion, so that was the end of that!
Flattery won't get you anywhere with her. She'll only give those who can truly appreciate her art a second look. How does she see me, you ask? Come on now, that hurts! Not only am I a connoisseur of the arts, but honest about it too, as I am in all my dealings!
