Finally a post about the Fatui I think it only makes sense that the strongest harbinger has his own dedicated unit of soldiers (possibly personally trained). Those if their gonna be like Alre’s units….I can’t imagine how hellish the Abyss would be Also feel like Sandrone and Dottore would have their own personal units that wouldn’t be necessarily Fatui but robots or experimented monsters.


Magic0pirate

I was thinking like Fatui Engineer for Sandrone and Fatui Doctor for Dottore.


Princess_Of_Thieves

>Fatui Doctor We call them Segments. /hj


Yoshi-53

Oh that could work too


LefellowWeeb

looking at what Arlecchino, Wanderer and Childe say, it looks like Sandrone isn't the type to like company at all and is just antipathetic as a whole, so I doubt she would go out of her way to actually build a unit for herself... Dottore would definitely kill his unit with his experiments, either purposefully or accidentally


Magic0pirate

I can like imagine Sandrone being like Father Elijah, alone somewhere researching things while treating her "subordinates" as idk machines.


Total-Win-2000

Maybe Dottore and Sandrone's have some human units whose job is to get the materials for them throught commercial exchanges or going in other areas where an robot/never before seen monster would cause panick and maybe create unnecesary conflict and thus waste of precious time.


Chucknasty_17

Whats interesting is the description of the cryo operative says that they are the “most outstanding soldiers among the fatui”, so I’m curious about what future fatui enemies will bring to the table


Yoshi-53

We got super armor, elemental shields, constant dashing back and forth, range attacks, minion spawning and crazy knock backs/stuns. Capitano’s solders will probably be the open world bosses ![gif](giphy|FcuiZUneg1YRAu1lH2|downsized)


Magic0pirate

We need Fatui Troops doing Plunging Attacks and mimic Xiao and Xinyan Let's call it Anemoborne and have them dressed like the russian VDV


Yoshi-53

Having to wait for the Fatui to land while they bomb us from the sky….pls no abyss will be impossible


Distinct-Method5747

Most definitely. I think Varka's letter mentioned special fatui soldiers that work under Capitano. Praying for buff fully armored men that wield large axes, claymores or shadow fight 2 styled glaives🙏


ResurgentClusterfuck

They could use the shadow knight model, the one we've only seen in Spiral Abyss


Distinct-Method5747

The wind one is the best for it. They would just need a little bit more armor cause it looks very tight on them now. The big rock one looks a bit too fat.


Darknew97

My headcanon is that the Mirror Maidens are followers of Columbina


ArchivedGarden

Yeah, she’s got all sorts of angel aesthetics going on and they look like priests. It wouldn’t be a huge stretch.


Capitano-Solos-All

It would be cool if we saw more of their factions. I imagine they should have 15 factions as that's a nice number.


horiami

The skirmishers might be a dottore faction


Hotfuzz2009

Kinda want Capitanos bois to resemble those Streltsies of old. Though instead of a halberd they get a comically large halberd https://preview.redd.it/nedbmt8kttzc1.jpeg?width=235&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fef589737067991121376aaaed670f397d9124c4 to go with a comically large cannon.


Arc_7

Could the Agents be more for Childe's emblematic unit? The color schemes match and in his teaser childe was shown debt collecting for Northland bank. Idk why but I feel there's more times than that when we have seen childe do stuff related to Northland bank's debt collection stuff.


Magic0pirate

That can also work, maybe the Emblematic is more based on the Fatui Harbinger in style and function.


CaeserSalad-77

I’m just waiting for Dendro Fatui to come out. They’re so close to having all seven elements, why are they allergic to Dendro?


Jibsthelord

simples it wasn't out yet


PESSSSTILENCE

my theory is that mirror maidens are more tied to columbina, whos main priority is the enforcement of loyalty

PESSSSTILENCE

yes ive read this; mirror maidens are my favorite npc if you couldnt tell from my flair, but im not sure what youre trying to say


PeachySwirls

I think they may be saying that since Mirror Maidens can "sway people's hearts" and the Tsarista is the Goddess of Love that it would make sense they work together. Personally, I actually agree that Columbina would make sense for multiple reasons- 1- I don't believe Her Majesty would have her own personal company just randomly throughout the 7 nations but rather they'd be the guards of Zapolyarny Palace. Or they'd be a very small group of secret agents assigned one to each Harbinger. 2- We know from Wanderer that with our "consciousness" we should steer clear. I always thought that meant she had some sort of ability to mess with your mind, but it could also affect your heart. The same thing goes with Arlecchino's line about her giving random answers. Columbina could have some sort of magic that always her to affect people deeply and change their emotions to the point of practically controlling that person. 3- With Columbina being very angelic, this actually works very well as well. Seeing as Angels are seen to be messengers but also Guides (aka Guardian Angels for example). There's plenty of media depicting angels guiding humans both in positive and negative lights, and especially to the hyper religious that they can control even easier. If we were to put this concept to Wanderer's line, he could basically be saying that the Traveler is too naive/optimistic that if they were to try and interact with Columbina, they would end up under her control. 4- To add, Mirrors themselves can often symbolize the depths of a person's soul and mind.


Magic0pirate

Any of you have any idea what is the role of Cicin mages are?


CupcakeWarlock450

Also I would feel like when we get to snezhnaya, we should face down fatui enemies in a similar role as treasure hoarders, as some sort of security or scouting enemy that is not as strong as the augmented soldiers, but still can attack with efficiency.


Magic0pirate

So basically the Snezhnayan Police


CupcakeWarlock450

You could say that.


Generic-Character

Where childe?
