My version of hum! Gray from Impostor V4

I don't know. I feel like he's still a kid, a very traumatized and brainwashed kid. My personal hc for his age is around 15-17

My actual predictions for the 5.6 archon quest, just because it will be fun to look back and see if I was right. This contains open discussion of material in the trailer; spoilers based on leaks will be rot13'ed.

As I've said before about the 2.3 Shadows Amidst Snowstorm event, the main takeaway was probably supposed to be the dead things on the mountain are coming back to life. This process has likely continued in the years since that event.

There's at least one impostor Albedo that hung around after the event ended. It may have been specifically Subject 2, but it's also possible that Durin was fed multiple failed prototypes that have since come back.

Genshin Impact has steadfastly refused to let any of its playable characters be truly morally gray -- just look at how hard it went on trying to portray Arlecchino as a good person -- so there is no way Albedo actually killed another human. One caveat: the game, like many other video games, seems perfectly happy to declare certain groups of humanoids to be ontollogically acceptable to kill (e.g. hilichurls), and I wouldn't be surprised if the impostors end up falling into that category. It's also possible that there are more whopperflowers and/or other monsters that have been given human shape, and Albedo killed one of these.

If the murderer wasn't Albedo, it was one of the impostors.

The improper disposal of human remains was definitely Albedo, but again these will turn out to not actually be "human", at least as the game defines it.

The monsters invading Mondstadt and synthetic beings becoming corrupted by the Abyss? A red herring, mostly. It will be the work of one of the impostors and/or something else raised from the dead on Dragonspine.

(A particularly vexing but very real possibility: this is still as close as we'll ever get to the "Albedo destroys Mondstadt" storyline teased in 1.2.)

Now for speculation based on leaks (again, rot13'ed):

Gur vzcebcreyl qvfcbfrq bs erznvaf jrer rvgure cebgbglcrf sbe Qheva'f arj obql be jvyy or hfrq gb perngr gung obql.

Gur crbcyr ubcvat sbe na Nyorqb naq/be Qheva jrrxyl obff ng fbzr cbvag jvyy yvxryl or qvfnccbvagrq. Ubjrire, onfrq ba bar yrnxrq yvar, V jbhyqa'g or fhecevfrq vs jr trg Euvarqbggve nf n jrrxyl obff riraghnyyl (qrsvavgryl abg va 5.6, gubhtu).

To sum up, I expect the quest to have a number of twists and turns that nonetheless don't upset the status quo too much or introduce much in the way of moral ambiguity, at least for its playable characters.

There's currently a silly poll going on for the VS Impostor characters going on, and I honestly couldn't resist making a drawing for the semi finals!

Personally... as much as I love Gray, I'm on Team Dave!

"Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin, Psychologist and Fencing Parent, on Impostor Syndrome and Upping a Fencer’s Mental Game"

"EPISODE SUMMARY

Today we're diving into the mental side of the sport, focusing on a common yet often overlooked struggle: impostor syndrome. We're thrilled to welcome Dr. Lisa Orbe-Austin, a licensed psychologist and renowned executive coach, who's made tremendous strides in tackling impostor syndrome, diversity, equity and inclusion, and effective communication within various organizations and educational institutions.

EPISODE NOTES

Today we're diving into the mental side of the sport, focusing on a common yet often overlooked struggle: impostor syndrome.

We're thrilled to welcome Dr. Lisa Orbe-Austin, a licensed psychologist and renowned executive coach, who's made tremendous strides in tackling impostor syndrome, diversity, equity and inclusion, and effective communication within various organizations and educational institutions.

The author of two insightful books, 'Own Your Greatness' and 'Your Unstoppable Greatness,' she’s an expert in overcoming impostor syndrome and navigating toxic or unsupportive work cultures.

In addition to her professional accomplishments, Dr. Orbe-Austin also brings a unique perspective to our discussion today - she's a parent to two budding fencers. Let's delve into her rich professional insights and her firsthand experiences from the fencing world. 

Visit Dr. Orbe-Austin's site 

Read a transcript for this episode"

"In each episode, we’ll talk to someone interesting within the fencing world, including young fencers just learning the sport, coaches, experts from outside of fencing, fencing parents, referees, Olympians and Paralympians, and many more. Ready? Set? Fence!"

So while this podcast is obviously geared directly towards olympic fencers the fact is that there's plenty of folks in historical fencing that deal with imposter syndrome, parenting and similar related issues and that pretty much every fencer out there can keep working on their mental game.
