Diluc Ragnvindr.

character introduction

Born into the wealthy Ragnvindr Clan, he is the current owner of Dawn Vineyard and a highly regarded noble in Mondstadt society. While a past incident caused him to split from the Knights of Favonius, he continues to protect Mondstadt in his own fashion as the rumored "Dark Hero".

personality

Once a confident and passionate young man, dedicated to his work with the Knights of Favonius. But after his father's untimely death, Diluc became distant and bitter. He doesn't like wasting time on idle chatter and gets impatient easily. Diluc holds a particular grudge towards the Knights of Favonius, whom he calls "inefficient" and looks down on at every turn. This grudge stems from Inspector Eroch's handling of his father's death, and Diluc hasn't reduced his grudge even after Eroch has been fired from the Knights for being a traitor. Despite his complicated emotions towards the Knights, Diluc believes both Lisa and Jean to be some of their best members. He still respects them for all the work they do for the people. He has bitter words but is kind and considerate in nature. Diluc dislikes alcohol, stating that he doesn't like the taste of it and prefers grape juice. However, this doesn't seem to be well known to many, probably as a result of him being the current owner of the largest wine producer in Mondstadt. He is even surprised when he learns that Diona also detests alcohol, as she initially believed that he was the only bartender in Mondstadt who didn't like alcohol. And since she tends to part with her possessions, she sold her father's private residence.

This means that you also have control over the flow of information, rumors and money. In a way, Diluc is the uncrowned king of Mondstadt.

character history part 1

The air in Mondstadt is always filled with the smell of wine. If one were to follow that scent, it would lead them to Diluc's Dawn Vineyard. Under the name of the vineyard, proudly inscribed on a wooden plaque, there is a sign that reads: "Don't forget your roots." Most believe it means that the wines remain true to their original flavor. For their part, the more pragmatic Knights are reminded of the long history of mutual support between the vineyard and the city. Occasionally, parties are held there, during which there are always enthusiastic parents who wish for the young, single Master of the Vineyard to be their son-in-law, introducing him to their eager daughters. Comments from others usually come in the form of mockery: "Thanks to The Seven, Mr. Diluc is married to the vineyard and is dedicated to making our stomachs happy." No matter who or what comes along, his responses are always impeccable. Diluc is an extraordinary gentleman who never leaves any loose ends.

character history part 2

It was something that happened a long time ago. Diluc's father was Mr. Crepus, the former owner of the Dawn Vineyard. Young Diluc lived up to his father's expectations and passed the knightly trials, becoming a member of the esteemed Knights of Favonius thanks to the training and discipline he received as a son of the Ragnvindr family. Diluc was also promoted to the rank of Cavalry Captain in a relatively short period of time. Little by little, the inhabitants of Mondstadt got to know the passionate young Captain through countless missions and patrols. Whatever his missions required of him, he always maintained his composure and passion. Whatever the challenge, his sword always carried him forward. The praise he received from his comrades and citizens encouraged him. But the greatest praise of all was: "Good job. I'm proud of you, son." His father's words fueled the fire within his heart and served as his greatest motivation. This faith burned strong and bright within him.

character history part 3

That day, a horrible monster attacked the caravan that he and his father were escorting. However, the young Cavalry Captain had no time to call for reinforcements. The monster was stronger than any enemy he had ever faced, so Diluc was between a rock and a hard place. The outcome of this battle was beyond what Diluc could have foreseen. Crepus, who had been denied entry to the Knights and was disfavored by the gods, defeated the monster with a previously unknown evil power that eventually consumed him. Crepus died shortly after in his son's arms. With a heavy heart, Diluc returned to the Knights' headquarters, where the commander ordered him to do the unthinkable: hide the truth. He was told that in his public statements he should say that what happened was an unfortunate accident in order to maintain the reputation of the Knights of Favonius. Diluc was so outraged by this request that he didn't think it was worth trying to argue. Crepus once said that the world would never turn its back on a loyal man. However, the Knights of Favonius trampled on his faith as if it was nothing important. So, he couldn't help but wonder: what was his father's concept of "loyalty" in his last moments of life? Diluc resigned from the Knights and left everything behind, including his Vision. He swore to avenge his father and discover the source of the evil power that caused his death.

character history part 4

After resigning from the Knights and giving up the Vision, Diluc entrusted the management of the Dawn Vineyard to the house's head maid and left Mondstadt. On his journey through the Seven Nations, he found clues to the secret he vowed to uncover, all pointing to a monstrous and gigantic organization: the Fatui. The Fatui made false Visions in secret and called them "Deceptions." Deceptions could amplify the power of their bearer, but they also had the risk of backfiring. That was what caused the death of Crepus, his father. Did his father obtain such a sacrilegious object to do good? Diluc never knew. However, he refused to turn back before he knew the whole truth. Like an eagle soaring through the desert, he set out on his quest for the truth. Determination burned like fire in his heart. No unfathomable mystery or endless battle could divert him from his path. Thus, what didn't kill him made him stronger, however, he encountered The Eleven, the Fatui's greatest force, when he drew too much attention after razing numerous of their strongholds, luckily, he was saved from the brink of death by an "observer" from the north who was part of a vast underground information network. He claimed that he had been watching Diluc for a while, and that he agreed with his methods, after this close encounter with death, Diluc reflected on himself and his actions, which were the cause of his anger accumulated over the years. After much thought, he decided to join this information network, just as when he first joined the Knights, Diluc was fully committed to the job and progressively rose to the top of the information network thanks to his talents and skills, there were no few who willingly gave up their reputation, status, and even name to join the network. Could he restore the faith he once clung to by working with them?

character history part 5

Afterwards, Diluc had returned to Mondstadt and taken over as head of the family winery, now a young adult. In the space of these four years, Eroch had been expelled from the Knights of Favonius after being proven to be a traitor, while Grandmaster Varka had left on an expedition, leaving Master Jean to take over as Grandmaster Steward. The return of the master of the Dawn Vineyard should have been a momentous event for Mondstadt, but it strangely went completely unnoticed. The reason? The citizens of Mondstadt were too busy pondering the mysterious case of an unknown “Protector of Mondstadt”, all that was known about the unnamed guardian was that he left a burning smell behind him, and that a flash of red flames would reveal his silhouette for a moment in the darkness of the night, before disappearing in an instant, the bodies of the monsters that had plagued Mondstadt for an eternity now lay dead in the wasteland… Mondstadt’s most wanted thieves suddenly appeared bound and gagged, hanging by their feet in the statue plaza… All of the Knights of Favonius were sent to once and for all face off against the Mage of the Abyss who was behind countless crimes in the city, only to discover that he had long since been wiped out… With the help of wine-fueled conversations, news of the mysterious guardian spread quickly, and he eventually became known as the “Dark Hero”, in public, Diluc seemed to despise this hero. His face twisted in disgust every time they said his name.

continuation of character story 5

Elzer of the Mondstadt Wine Producers Guild was one of the few who knew, and once asked Diluc: Is his disapproval of the Dark Hero just a facade, intended to make the Knights lose track of him and thus protect his anonymity? But Diluc simply frowned once more and replied curtly, "It's a stupid name," Diluc had to keep up his facade in order to continue keeping his "identity" of being the "dark hero" a secret.

vision

Crepus had two regrets in life: the first was never becoming a knight, and the second was never receiving a Vision. For this reason, the moment Diluc received his Vision, he took it as an acknowledgement from the gods of the ambition shared by him and his father. It could finally fill him with pride. Only a few years later, his father died on a dark and gloomy day. The hopes and dreams that burned bright in Diluc's Vision were extinguished in the torrential rain that fell that night. No matter how upright and good-hearted a person is, death can come without warning. Is this where this story of justice ends? Just like that? It seemed that his Vision and his status as a knight were equally ineffective in protecting the things he treasured most. So he decided to get rid of both. Recognizing his own powerlessness, his Vision became a burden, not unlike a Delusion. Empty titles did not interest him. What he sought was an unbreakable resolve, like a flame that burns everything. Only a firm resolve allows the seeker of truth to move forward, and only burning flames can overcome the ice that freezes the hand of justice. The day Diluc returned to Mondstadt, he resumed his Vision. The events of his years away had shaken him out of his childish immaturity and shaped him into a hero ready to take up his father’s will once more. Every night, from the shadows, he fought for Mondstadt. He did not discuss the past, but he did not deny it either. For those who have lost everything, perhaps a Vision is a beacon of light given by the gods to help them find their way forward. But for those with conviction, a Vision is simply an extension of their strength, a means to channel their will, a tribute to the experiences that have shaped them, and a testament to the story of their life thus far.
