RecentGenshin Impactleaks give the first information about the Hydro Archon which is supposed to watch over Fontaine, one of the seven major regions in the world of Teyvat. So far the game has introduced only four of these nations: Mondstadt, Liyue, Inazuma, and the recently added land of Sumeru.
Each of these regions has an Archon who serves as its main protector and the main storyline usually revolves around them.Genshin Impact’s Archons are often considered the strongest characters within the playable roster as they have the potential to fill almost every team composition in the game.

A new post on theGenshin ImpactLeaks subreddit has apparently given more details aboutthe upcoming Fontaine regionand its Archon. In fact, according to the leak, Fontaine will have two Archons who are referred to as the “current Archon” and the “late Archon.” The late Archon will apparently have a teen female body type with white/navy blue hair, an appearance based on Seele, which is a character from Honkai Impact 3rd, HoYoverse’s second most popular title. The leaker also describes her as sly, cunning, and mischievous.
The current Archon will have an adult female body model with gold hair and a gradient toward blue while also described as solemn and righteous. She will apparently be based on Honkai’s Durandal, a high-ranking officer within the Schicksal organization. She is also the captain of the Immortal Blades and one of the S-Rank Valkyrja. There is currently not a lot of information about the Fontaine region which is confirmed by many leakers to be thenext major region to arrive inGenshin Impact.
Recent leaks haverevealed the first Fontaine modelwhich was taken from the game’s original beta. According to the model, Fontaine’s main city could be attached to a vertical platform, leading many players to believe that it could be sticking out of a waterfall which could make sense since it’s known as the Hydro region.
Fontaine is expected to be placed north ofthe recently released Sumeru region, and it will probably be connected to Liyue.Genshin Impact’s official story has confirmed that the people of Fontaine value justice overall, and they are also known for their devotion to technology. Every region in the game is based on a real-life location and the home of the Hydro Archon is inspired by France.
