Columbina - The Most Mysterious Harbinger (Genshin Theory and Speculation)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 чер 2024
- Columbina is the Third of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers, and she is by far the most mysterious of any of the Harbingers that we have seen so far. In this video, I decided to go over what we know about her, as well as speculate on her role in the future stories of the game.

![The Lost 10th Harbinger [Genshin Impact Lore and Theory]](/img/n.gif)
Im so obsessed with her she HAS to be a playable character SHE HAS TO BE
Edit: it’s been a month and I’m sure she’s gonna be playable. Will start saving for her C6R1 after I get Furina’s c2 😌
Same
Yas yas yas!!!!!!!!! She better be going to be one!!!!!!!!!!!
if we're going with the pattern of the Harbinger wheel, she'll be the next Harbinger boss fight as a minimum since it went from Childe to Signora to Scaramouche to Arlecchino and the next is Columbina's symbol.
If she gon be playable she gon a weekly boss and im not ready to pick beef with her yet not even sure if we can beat arlecchino
She has to be. I already am saving for her, haven’t pulled anything since 4.2 and planning to skip everything for her. (well, except the pyro Archon, as an Archon collector.)
Imagine saving for over a year, only for her be hit by: ‘Primordial Fire first form: Cremation Slash.’
Everyone gangsta until Columbina becomes a Biblically Accurate Angel in her Boss Fight
Everyone gangsta until capitano take off his mask
@@johnnyjoestar1249 He looks more scary when we see red eyes glittering from his black mask
One of my headcannons of columbina is that looking in her eyes will literally vaporise you, which is why she wears the eye net thingy
Arlecchino voice lines will be the Fatui lore bomb we've all been waiting for.
Doubtfull. We got Wanderer who should have given us plenty of information about EVERYTHING fatui and Tsaritsa related since he in in debt to Nahida who is eternally gratefull to the MC and on top of that , he is not in the situation of Childe who is a friend to the MC but can't give all that much information because he is loyal to the Tsaritsa, nor is he even remembered as an ex-Harbinger so if information from his is leaked nobody would even know.
Wanderer is the single greatest source of information we could have gotten about the Fatui and we got very very little.
@@shadowpriest2574............even a little at this point is a lot
@@alexreid5001 Its not . We are 5 nations and soon to be 3 harbingers in ,we should have gotten way more for a long time .
@@shadowpriest2574 maybe your right just need to wait and see
Highly doubt it, maybe she will be the one to put an end officially to all theorized symbol/constellation affiliations, and ranking amongst the harbinger.
I can't wait to hear Arlecchino's voiceline about Columbina.
That's the only reason I am waiting for arlechino, her lines
That’s her wife isn’t she
I'm from the future. We lost boys.
She said nothing
DAMSELLETE HAS TO BE PLAYABLE PLEASE 🙏 SHES MY FAVORITE HARBINGER
I belive Columbina is a Seraphim, they are angels but in a higher rank, seraphims have 3 pairs of wing and we saw she has 3 pairs her self but in little form and on the back of her head. She may be the only angel we will see in Genshin (by angel I mean the most known angel form seen in media) plus if we go into more seraphims idea she may have the most connection to Celestia outside the Archons
i aint dying till she releases. mark my words.
That's what I'm saying 😅 she's my most hyped for character and recently we've had word she'll appear in natlan so 5.0/5.3ish till then stay safe
Im very exciting for her since shes definitely my favorite Harbinger. I have a speculation that she is an Ace up the Fatui's sleeve hence her 3rd rank. I also think she could be a seelie queen or something special as a very powerful angelic deity for sure. Her eyes could also weld her power or show her power, like a crying angel of sorts. She doesn't have a vision that I can see so I can see her welding power naturally with her eyes.
_"Here, she sing next to Signora's coffin, appearing kind and innocent"_
Objection you honor.
She terrifies and fascinates me, it weird feeling. 😅🧐🤔
I have wild guess, but I think Columbina will have the same power as Eida from Boruto series. She can enchant you if you look her directly in the eyes, making you not wanting to hurt her. That's why she has mask covering only her eyes.
This explain Childe's voice-over about him wanting to spar with other harbingers, except her.
For Wanderer, since he's a puppet he cannot be enchanted, but still give waring to the Traveler to stay away from her, for Traveler is a human and can get enchanted by her.
Imagine if she become playable! When she uses ult, enemies will not be able to attack you for a period of time, including bosses. How about that? (RIP Beidou mains)
Yo when you were talking about her opening her eyes in her kit, I imagined her burst animation of her opening her eyes with an evil smile and one shotting all the enemies in front of her and it looked so cool!😊
I think Columbina is an anemo character. There are too many references with angels, wings, sky, air, heaven, etc… for her not to be anemo. However, I think there’s more to her than that, and that she is able to use demonic dark/abyssal powers as well - which is why she is so dangerous/powerful. I think that she’s like Furina in a sense that she summons familiars, in the form of cherubs, that do damage like the little oceanid buddies. Maybe they temporarily seal enemies’ abilities (heavenly subjugation). Like Furina, she’ll able to switch back and forth between two forms of her power. One is which the light half of her powers attacks enemies for a limited time, while the other manifests the dark side of her powers and she drops a demonic totem or eye that drains the life of her enemies to increase her own. Kind of like the corrosion that the Rift Hounds use. They’ll counteract this OP factor by making the cooldowns for the skills stupidly long and her kit is gonna be all energy recharge and elemental mastery based. The lower her HP the stronger she is. She'll be Genshin's first Glass Cannon character.
She likely cyro due to cyro has something to do with wanting love or lose love
“I want all the harbingers it be playable at some point”
Signorashes: nope
Burst idea she just slightly opens her eyes and moves her mask out of the way, and then like yknow big damage. Like a ‘only 10%’ moment
I feel the same
I am TERRIFIED. of her. I have since I saw her. And yes ik that sounds wild but.... she's smiling and she's one of them. I scared as shit
something that i think would be a really cool mechanic for Columbina would be the ability to trigger the freeze reaction on enemies without any hydro! for balancing purposes perhaps she could have a Nilou/Chevreuse-like where she needs to be in a mono-cryo team to trigger this special kind of freeze? or alternatively maybe the special freeze could be exclusive to her burst similar to the special “petrification” effect that Zhongli’s burst applies to enemies 🤔 like in her burst animation she could open her eyes and it just instantly “freezes” the enemies out of fear!
Since Arlecchino also has a stance change, all Harbingers so far with Childe, Wanderer, Signora and now Arlecchino all have a stance change maybe all Harbingers will have a stance change which would be cool as hell
I hope there's a cutscene of Columbina and Arlecchino dancing waltz or something like that
good fatui speculation video. My speculation weapon of columbina would be sword, catalyst or bow
Please keep making videos man, the way you structure your content is so good and easy to follow.
I'm afraid that if she turns out to be totally different from all these fantasized form, people will go crazy mad by their own expectations 🤦♀🤦♀🤦♂🤦♂
I have no idea what columbina is supposed to be or what she’s been through, but I can speculate a bit on her personality. Personally, from what we’re given, she kinda feels like a baby.
The wanderer gives us a description of the damselette, or a kind of metaphor for her: a “damsel” who is oblivious and innocent at any given time, and unconcerned and unfeeling in any given situation. I don’t believe these statements are contradictory; they may just hold true at the same time.
The damselette is a baby, not because she’s a big bawling mess, but as in someone innocent, naive, and neutral: without a sense of right or wrong. Babies don’t know if a face is scary or not, or not to put forks into plugs, or not to squash a butterfly. They just sort of do their own thing unless the parent discourages them from doing it. Her “parents” would be the tsaritsa and the fatui, and she seems to be on their side, for now, anyway.
The wanderer also says given the traveller’s conscience, they would probably not be willing to fight her, or have the heart to do it. Humans have an instinct to protect babies, something that helps with enabling the survival of our species. With columbina, she might be able to make you feel something similar, like she’s a baby or a damsel, one who should be protected and not harmed.
This also ties in with arlecchino’s opinion on columbina: pose her a question, and the answer you receive will be entirely unpredictable, if she sees fit to give a proper answer at all. Babies or children tend to have unique and whimsical perceptions of the world and can say things that don’t make sense. This perspective can also be important what with the new world they’re creating.
A similar character would be O5-3 in the SCP-001 proposal “the way it ends”. In this story, he’s a baby who was experimented on to use a machine that can spy on everything. The reason the person had to be a baby was because only a mind as pure can handle all the information. Although, he’s probably a bit colder than the damselette.
So basically, we have an intelligent, pure and neutral soul with tremendous amounts of power on our hands. It wouldn’t hurt if we can befriend her, but fighting her would probably feel like going against a force of nature. We’ll definitely need more than a few bandaids afterwards
They say those who see her eyes open are dead. Even childe does not want to mess with Columbina
Edit: Columbina is a fallen, teyvat is hell. Archons are demons and have demon names. The abyss is strairway to heaven
I loved the idea of her abilities you suggested, when you said she opens her eyes during her burst it gave me chills ngl
There is also a bit more proof that she might be in Natlan because her symbol is the dove and it is the next one after Alerrechinos symbol because alerrechinos in Fontaine and capitano is after her but they could both be in natlan, because tartaglia was first then signora ( rip) and the scara and then alerrechino this is al based on the symbol circle of the fatui so then she has to be In natlan, at least that’s my theory 😊
Well venti is istarorth son... One of the thousands
Whatever her energy is, I want it. Expeditiously. She's the Harbinger I want most. So much that I'm willing to break my promise on never C6'ing a limited character again (if she's playable later).
I just looked through the whole characters' list and the only ones with distinguishable hair color changes are Venti, Zhongli, Furina, Nahida, Kokomi and you guessed it Columbia. Venti from black to teal, Zhongli is black to orange, Furina is white to blue, Nahida is white to green, Kokomi is pink to blue and Columbia is black to pink. And I don't think this is a coincidence.
This is not because it's related to the archon's position either as we can see Ei's hair. Then to what? This is my theory: The hair change color indicates that they have at least some sort of connection to the world's power. Not Celestia's power but the world's power. I think that after the primorial ones won the war, they gained some sort of power that allowed them to intervene and change the world to their desires, that to include the power of creation. Because as we can see, the traveler is a descender BUT we don't know if they had the power to create just yet, despite that, they have the power of purification. Back to what we know about Egiria, she was created by the SHADE OF LIFE and she created the race that is the Fotainians, including Fosalor. Fosalor, and Furina are one soul that got separated to deceive the heavenly principle, but then why don't the people of Fontain do? I suspect that Egiria already made up her mind about her successor the moment she decided to create them.
Venti is a wind whisper that departed from ISAROTH and became Barbatos, according to his story. And he is older than 2600+, remember that one line in his trailer "The witness to the divine " or something like that? He absolutely knew a lot of things even before descending to help Mond... and that suspicious line in his character desc, how he had met the traveler before and told us to let his company anyways after realizing that we don't remember him?? Very suspicious. ANYWAY, Zhongli is over +6000 years old, he have information that we needed but was unable to help because of a contract with Celestia, you know about the Sun God theories for him? I don't think that it is 100% false, Zhongli might be from the Sovereign's time.. we don't know a lot about him, But his taking the form of a Dragon as Red Lapiz is also something to consider. But I do think he is connected to the World's power.
Nahida as we know is a branch from the world tree, that's all I need to say, she was born from the tree that holds information about the world. Kokomi however, we had suspected her to be the God of Flower's incarnation, and we don't know where the God of Flower came to but only know that she's from the First Descender's rule and was cast out of heaven. She is also suspected to be Seelie, and I don't know if Seelie is connected to any of the World's powers, I don't have enough knowledge but I suspect it is. And this may be a stretch but Kokomi and Furina both have the same fading color..
And we don't know about Columbia yet. But I suspect her to be connected to the world's power or one of the Shade. Do we know which one? no. But from Ashikai's theory video, "Isaroth is NOT a god of time one", we can expect Isaroth to be the Shade of the End and/or Memories. Only when we die then our memories conclude, that is what I believe, and I think that is how Venti delivered the memories of the Wind to his people, I think it's from the deaths and the wind carried them, and you remember how Columbia is the one who sings at the funeral of Signora? I don't think that it is just a choice or a coincidence, and that reminds me of the fact that they are both connected to music too. Music is one of the ways to preserve one's memories after all.
But remember this is just a theory! I have my speculations and I don't even play Genshin lol, I do listen to my friends and read a lot of book records from their accounts, and I love watching the play through of each events if that saying something. Anyway Rox's out! Thank you for reading!
Edit: So I searched up the meaning of Columbia, its meaning is "Dove". You know how Venti is "Winds" and how he is the god of Freedom? I don't think it is so far off from that. After all Dove is a symbol of Freedom, Love and Peace! Just more connections between the two! :DD
The symbols of Wind and Dove is also very interesting in the Bible:
"A dove in the Bible represents new beginnings, new possibilities, new creation, the presence of God"
While "Wind is a Biblical symbol of the Holy Spirit. Like the wind, the Holy Spirit comes in suddenly and from seemingly nowhere - He whirls about the atmosphere and changes everything. The Spirit, like the wind, moves wherever He wants and is, at times, unpredictable. "
This is the something about the '4 winds' in the bible btw:
"The Pulpit Commentary suggests that translation as "the four winds" is "doubtless correct": "the winds are supposed to be God's servants, waiting his pleasure to be sent forth on his errands"."
"It should be noted, when the phrase “four winds” is mentioned in the Bible, it’s usually in reference to some remarkable, unusual, or devastating event."
Very interesting, isn's it?
Just wanted to mention that a lot more characters have hair color/grandient changes apart from the ones you mentioned.
Some have similar gradient color changes, some have streaks.
Yelan, Layla, Mona, Heizou, Sara, Gorou, Alhaitham, Kaveh, Wanderer, Xinyan, Xianyun, Xiao, Tighnari, Dehya have clear distinctive hair color changes as well
Now coming to other characteristics that archons have with their hair is the glowing effect when they use their burst.
Furina not being an archon doesnt have this glowing effect in her hair. She has a part of her dress that has the gradient glowing look, but its probably to fool others of her archonhood.
Similar glowing effect is seen with neuvillette's blue tentacle like horns when he uses charged attack.
I can't wait for the Capitano video, he's my favorite !
What if in Natlan they reversed the Signora case. Instead of a Harbinger dying to a archon, An archon died to Columbina
Going by her supposed constellation of the crying dove, I feel that Columbina might be a tragic character. Yes, she is still terrifying but most likely misunderstood than pure evil.
Not that I am justifying her possible motives but I feel like there is more to her than simply being 'creepy'.
An idea for columbina's burst she'll just use (Za Warudo)
i love her!! my theorys are is that she is close to a biblical fallen angel just like urs , her fatui constellation etc is a crying dove (assuming) so maybe that could link back to ur theory about her being a fallen angel from clestia , as that symbol is very close to columbinas look and view! if shes a fallen angel from clestia , this could give us lore about paimon having fallen into the water , maybe also her being a fallen person from clestia as her clothes , links etc are very close.
Amazing video👍✨️
8:02 YOOO I JUST THOUGHT ABOUT IT TOO
She’s going to be in natlan
She could be the Angelica mentioned in the Perinheri book. A nobel from liyue who did not submit to Zhongli after her god was defeated in the Archon war.
shes my favourite
The moment Columbina is released, I’m C6 R5 her. Main Columbina before she’s even released. She can rule all of Teyvat with fire and blood if she wants, I’ll root for her. Go Angel Queen, slay, literally
Ok, now being for real, all of the Harbingers spoke something, while Columbina just sang. I’m almost 100% that Columbina is wrongly ranked, and not even Pierre knows her true strength. She’s the typical character that is extremely goofy and crazy, but always was behind everything, and it’s a total caos machine. Imagine Columbina being a Celestia spy, or something even crazier
@@JulesVanteWell, sadly. It's not true. She's confirmed to be a special species from natlan, so boring.
I wanna see her and venti square up so bad. Give me an angel fight I need it
You should make education videos as well. Bc I play Genshin. Im doing the Fontaine archon quest right now. So I’m pretty far into the game, but I either don’t remember or don’t pay close enough attention bc half the time I’m not exactly sure who and what you’re talking about 😅
Columbina might be the only harbinger I will pull
I want to see what Arlecchino tell about her.
Goddess of Flowers & Columbina = Seelie
these videos have been cooking
I have a Theory now. Paimon is either Istaroth or a child of Istaroth. She can control the Time in Game and in Lantern Rite 2023 Traveller said she has no feeling for Time. She was so Insulted that she didn’t speak to the Traveller for some Time (5Minutes 😂) But with Columbinas eyes…. Sorry but I just think her eyes were closed because she was relaxing and singing on the Coffin. And when they were gathered around the Coffin EVERYONE closed their eyes. Or You’re Right 🤷♀️.
6:32 signora is dead.
As a mobile HSR player, if columbina or before columbina is realeased. I will download GENSHIN IMPACT, i know alot of GENSHIN Impact. And know ALOT of characters and became obsessed. Even with Columbina.
Good news, Columbina will be playable.
Imagine if she is Goddess of Flower herself 🔥🔥🔥
Cyno past incarnation lover?
@@johnnyjoestar1249 king deshret's lover
What if her weapon is catalyst but she foght using her wings
isnt her race is the seelie race? the one that was punished by the gods
if i remember, the seelie race lost their vision, hearing, and beauty or something like that.. but what if she survived that?
If she’s playable then I’m saving all my primos for her😭
Good news, she's playable
I don't take Childe voiceliness seriously he doesn't know anything , but we should consider Scaramouche serious. Also Columbina is a species like Yae Miko blessed by Archon thats all Spoiler.
The leaks regarding her being a blessed race is cannot be trusted. just a matter of time until we will get to know her more. Seems like hoyo hide her identity on purpose
YESSSSSSS!! A COLUMBINA VIDEO!!!!!! (also, f i r s t? ! )
Congrats, not congrats, no one cares that you're first.

10th comment!
I don't believe columbina to be an angel to me she is more like a high priest or a disciple of an angel cuz so far only venti and twins have Wong's that of an angel and seraphs alike
(Traveler in starting has 6 golden wings that are similar to seraphs and seraphs are also closest to god's)
yes i am saying twins are next in line to primordial one the real God which is why they are the one said to be ascending at the end and decide the fate of everything
Also Chaos is the theme of twins both have golden and darkness power's you can also call it heavenly and Abyssal when mixed it produces the power that brings destruction and birth of new and in some mixed tales chaos is also the power needed to kill the God
The comparison of venti and Columbina doesn't make any sense. All archons have two tones hair. That gem in her Fatui jacket is most like just a design choice and is not related to venti at all.
The most mysterious harbinger is the missing no. 10
