I was suppose to draw this much earlier, but motivation be a fickle thing. I didn’t want to do a background…
Additional thoughts and stuff below
Fun fact about Silent Answer! I didn’t unlock it immediately bc I was stupid. After finishing Final Verdict, I went and played a light song in World Mode with Hikari which didn’t work, then I played Testify which I guess doesn’t count either, then I may have just played Primeval Texture? Idk, I think I have a severe lacking in reading comprehension.
Pros of Arcaea x Phigros collab: Literal W collab. Wanted and waited for this ever since I started playing Phigros (~ 2 years ago) and it’s a great one! Even if it’s a small one it opens up to many new possibilities! (*cough* D321 in Arcaea and Defection in Phigros please-)
Cons of Arcaea x Phigros collab: Good god what the fuck is this (/pos)

Impulse designing got the better of me again… anyways here’s my interpretation of Akivili from Honkai Star Rail
Based on Pom-pom (beta + current) and Stelle and Caelus's design. More under cut, since my brainrot was pretty bad I’ll put it under there.
Weapon, thanks to @/skyward-current for the idea of making smth based on a telescope. So 8 ish hours struggling later we got this thing, which is supposed to be a telescope that doubles as a blaster. This doesn't give telescope vibes but this will do for now. Yeah I suck at weapon designing man, never got used to these mfs after all these years :V
Battle poses/concept. If Akivili were to be playable, I wanna bet them to be Fire/Trailblaze, or at least Fire/Destruction if Hoyo wants to stick to the main 7 playable paths (although I HOPE they'll make them an exception) I tried to make something that fits the telescope blaster thing I tried to design, but then I still wanna keep my original idea for their battle somehow (chucking the Astral Express at the enemy) so bam that's their ult now :/
Anyways babbling time-
I highly doubt that Akivili is even dead, lost after some event sure, but something tells me they're not dead. For all we know this mf could be vibing in the Sea of Quanta or smth. I'm sure at some point in HSR plot we'll meet/become the Trailblaze at some point in the future. Definitely really later on like.. say 5.0 ish or later.
As for personality, I wanna say they're the most... Humane/moral of all Aeons due to being the one that surrounds themself with mortals the most often. Cause let's be real here: there are literal documents in HSR stating that Akivili is known to live alongside humans. This is also why my design is very human, with some small details that try to differentiate them from mortals.
Well back to personality, I feel like Akivili is very outgoing to everyone, Nameless and strangers alike, but also very reckless. Like they give off doing it despite knowing it's dangerous vibes to me, but I think that's just me associating Stelle and Caelus to the Trailblaze too often, but I digress.
... Oh now that I think abt it, should I give them more bird features? I read on the wiki that Akivili could represent a word meaning "eagle" or smth ...
