Profile

Undisputed ruler of all Inazuma Bearing the name "His Excellency, the almighty Narukami", he promised the people of Inazuma unchanging eternity. He has destroyed love with a flash of lightning, forging a pure land from a lonely heart. During these long years, the path to eternity has been dark and distant, but His Highness Shogun has not hesitated for a moment. Only in silence does unchanging eternity reveal its serene nature.

Appearance

Shogun Raiden is an adult woman with long braided violet hair that goes behind her back and a hairpin on her right side. She wears a small crimson ribbon around her neck as a choker. Her kimono has a variety of patterns in different shades of purple and crimson, along with an Inazuma emblem badge tied to the front of her clothing below her right breast. She wears dark purple stockings above knee level, with small diamond slits at the top. On the back of her outfit she wears a crimson bow with tassels. She also wears sandals; the one to her right is adorned with two pale violet flowers. It is unknown if the fan pin on her back is a false Vision or simply a mark. Her hair does glow when she performs elemental skills, they have the Electro mark inscribed on them.

Personality

Shogun Raiden is a firm believer in what she believes to be eternity, a place where everything stays the same, regardless of what actually happens. She is honorable in her conduct and is revered by the people of Inazuma. The Shogun exists in two forms: Ei, her true identity, and the Shogun, a puppet created by Ei to act as ruler of Inazuma in her place while she meditates on the Plane of Euthymia. This puppet follows a set of directives programmed into it, which are extremely difficult to modify even by Ei herself. The Shogun has a cold and severe personality, even callous at times; she is limited in emotional expression, has no likes or dislikes, and has no need for recreation. The Shogun considers herself Ei's assistant, and she does exactly what she wants, no more, no less; She cannot act without Ei's direction, and if her usual functions are disabled, the Shogun becomes unable to do anything. Due to her limited range of protocols and Ei's apathy toward anything outside of the eternity she seeks, the Shogun can be easily manipulated by outside forces, such as when the Kujou Clan and the Fatui manipulated her into initiating and perpetuating the Decree of Capture of Visions.

Personality part 2

While Ei remains relatively stoic compared to most people, she is noticeably more emotional and friendly than the Shogun. Unlike the Shogun, Ei has things she likes and dislikes, such as a sweet tooth. Due to her dedication to eternity, Ei is wary of the idea of ​​change, although she shows more curiosity than disdain when it comes to new things, such as the appearance of the Traveler and the customs of the modern world. Because she has lost many of her loved ones over the centuries, Ei is driven by fear of further loss and wishes to preserve Inazuma for all eternity. To this end, she sealed herself in the Plane of Euthymia in an effort to preserve herself from the effects of erosion, while she created the Shogun to be immune to the decay of the physical body. While on the Plane of Euthymia, Ei was apathetic towards anything that did not affect her quest for eternity, and had a low opinion of human ambition due to ambition leading to loss and suffering, which made her incompatible with eternity. Even on the Plane of Euthymia, however, she could not truly escape the loneliness, as she was happy to see her friend Yae Miko again. Ei has a great weakness against desserts, as her opinion is that desserts cannot represent any serious obstacle to her quest for Eternity; This is also mentioned by Yae Miko and Venti, with the latter suggesting to the Traveler that she bring him desserts to exploit said weakness.

History

Since the dawn of mankind, people have always had a great longing and curiosity for things in the world. This is the basis of cognition and the foundation on which reason is based. For the people of Inazuma, the world is like that too. In this nation, storms and lightning have existed for a long time, just as there is light, the ocean, and... Shogun Raiden. When children go to sleep, mothers often tell them the legend of how the Shogun defeated other gods and conquered other peoples. When the children of Inazuma visit other islands, they see canyons created by cutting lightning and the pale, imposing bones of a snake. When soldiers go to war, they all shout "glory to the Shogun and his eternal empire!" People with quiet jobs and lives are grateful to the Shogun and the services of the faithful Triumvirate. Shogun Raiden's reputation transcended the bounds of the mortal long ago, and became an eternal faith that has been passed down in Inazuma for generations. Due to the prestige and power of their Archon, the people of Inazuma have reason to believe that their descendants will also see the same landscapes and build their world around this faith, which they will continue to pass on to the next generations. This is precisely the eternal utopia that the Shogun promised her people.

Story part 2

Shogun Raiden's real name is "Raiden Ei". He has seen with his own eyes everything that Inazuma has had to sacrifice over thousands of years in order to progress. His happiest years are now behind him, and his old friends have become his enemies, so in the end he has no reason to continue wielding his sword. "With every advance comes a loss." He thinks that this is the immutable law of time that can be applied to anything in this world. The most glorious and prosperous nation of humanity crumbled overnight; Liyue, the longest-lived city of all, had to bid farewell to Archon Geo; and the winds of farewell came whistling from the outer edge of time. Shogun Raiden's reputation has yet to be heard, but there will come a day, hundreds or thousands of years from now, when Inazuma will also no longer be protected by its goddess. As a warrior, she always remained alert to the enemy, and even if they presented a threat as empty as time itself, she was quick to find a weapon with which to counterattack. His answer is eternity. Only eternity will allow everything to stop and Inazuma to never be destroyed. "While things are going well, let's stop for a moment. Let's head towards eternity."

Story part 3

Even if a being who is limited by a body decides to pursue eternity, he will never be able to avoid his own life expectancy. The limited time available to us was something that worried Ei. That was until, one day, fate would have it that a mysterious technology appeared before his eyes. With it, puppets capable of coming to life could be made. In theory, if these puppets could be the perfect copy of Ei, they would not have a limited lifespan and could live forever in order to protect Inazuma eternally. However, making a replica of a divine being was not that simple. To do this, Ei carried out countless experiments and had to discard many that failed, consuming an unimaginable amount of time and resources. With his obsession and his warrior will, he created a perfect puppet. The new Shogun Raiden stood still before Ei as she listened attentively to everything she told her about herself, her other self, and even about both of them. This was how the future of Inazuma was written in wonderful blueprints of technology. He only had one question for Ei: "If you leave your body, there will be no turning back. Are you sure you won't regret it?" "The fact that you exist is my answer to that question." So, Ei became a consciousness that was stored in a sword. And that is how the "plane of euthymia" originated.

Story part 4

Before becoming the Shogun, Raiden Ei was a samurai in charge of overseeing the fulfillment of the orders of the Shogun of that time. The former Electro Archon, named Raiden Makoto, was weak and always burdened Ei with the most bloodthirsty tasks. But, besides fighting, Ei also enjoyed her moments of relaxation under the cherry trees while playing cards with her friends. However, she was always the slowest when it came to playing, so she never managed to win, nor did she get to taste the prizes that the Kitsune Priestess prepared for those who won at cards. So, in order to learn how to play well, she began to put in the same concentration as when she was practicing swordplay. In addition, she would often challenge Makoto or Mikoshi Chiyo to card duels, or she would recite by herself under the moonlight the poems that she had inscribed on the cards. Finally, the day came when, under the cherry trees, Ei defeated her opponents one after another. Even the tengu was defeated by her after a hard battle, so she was crowned the champion. She was very happy to have won, which caused her friends to laugh. Then, she realized that she had completely lost her manners and immediately lowered her hands and regained her cold countenance. Her friends didn't mean to laugh at her, as they knew her very well and knew that she had worked very hard to win. However, the Kitsune Priestess, laughing, placed some pastries in front of her. "Technically, they're your reward, but in reality, they're just homemade sweets. I didn't think they'd make you so pensive. In any case, try them, they're your reward for winning."

Story part 5

Ei did not covet these cakes at all. As a samurai, he firmly believed that every defeat should be recovered with a victory, so the cakes were a gift of appreciation for his great ambition. So, as she tasted the delicious pastries, she unconsciously smiled again. That was the taste of victory. However, the face she made when she held back her smile was something her friends found very... interesting. Even today, Ei still occasionally thinks of those cherry trees. Even though she hasn't visited them for a long time, even though there is no one under their branches anymore, she still hopes that time will stop forever.

Story part 6

Ei still remembers that Makoto loved the landscapes, gastronomy, culture and stories of Inazuma so much that sometimes he couldn't stop talking to her about it. Although they were perfectly aware of the erosion caused by the passage of time, compared to Ei, who worried so much about the future, Makoto preferred to put all his concentration on the present. 'I enjoy everything to the fullest precisely because I understand how ephemeral things are.' At that response, Ei could only force a smile and reflect on how unyielding she was as a kagemusha compared to Shogun Raiden. She also thought that she wished she could be as relaxed as Makoto. But the most unexpected day came sooner than anyone anticipated, and it took Ei with no way to defend herself. Before she knew it, she had the dying Raiden Makoto's sword in her hands. That day, Ei fully understood what true pain from erosion felt like. If he continued to advance with time, even that sword, those cherry trees, and the living beings of Inazuma would one day disappear before his eyes. To her, those were the foundations of Inazuma, as well as what Shogun Raiden was meant to protect. 'If you look at it that way, thinking about the future is not meaningless, nor is it a form of arrogance.' With total determination, he surpassed the limits of the body and eternity descended upon the mortal plane.

Story part 7

One night, Raiden Ei entered a beautiful dream place while meditating. It was a plane between heaven and earth, where only she and the image of her "self" existed. Then, she heard the puppet's voice whispering to her: "Your 'eternity' is destabilized by the ambition of your people. Thus, you have become my enemy." Ei had already taken into account the possible dangers that could arise from the puppet she made. She knew that anything could happen, so in the worst case, even she herself could become a threat for eternity. However, he had to keep moving forward to reach her, which demonstrated his unstoppable willpower. What the puppet told her came from the past, from a question the Shogun asked herself: "You now believe more firmly in your convictions than in the past, so your current self is the correct one, right?" "Does your present self have a new way of thinking, or have you been unable to resist the erosion of time?" Two different wills were reflected in the same face, and both his self and his past would return sooner or later. But that day would not come yet, and Ei knew she was not ready for it yet. Her heart was calm and she had reached the plane of her self, but to hear the cries of her people, she had to stop. Then, that great light faded away, and in the palace of his "non-being" the croaking of crows resounded. Dawn was breaking and, as a samurai, he had to grab his sword. That dream was so real, but at the same time, as fleeting as the passing of a shadow...

Dream Mind

"Dream Mind" is a sword passed down from generation to generation, and has accompanied Ei to this day. This sword has had two owners and has seen the passage of time and eternity. Born from the divine power of Raiden Makoto, it never needed sharpening. The blade followed its owner: if she didn't know how to fight, neither would he. That's why it was nothing more than a symbol of true peace. When Makoto passed away, the sword came into Ei's possession. The weapon thirsted for blood, and when she tasted it, the strong winds and thunder blew it aside. Makoto named her "Dream Mind" because he wished she could see the dreamlike beauty of Inazuma and the noble minds and hearts of this world. Ei decided not to change her name because she too had seen that same beauty and had a pure heart and a strong mind. And to capture the beauty of lightning, you need a mind capable of understanding the beauty of the ephemeral and illusory aspects of the mortal world.
