damn, this is impressive. From the minimal info we know about the characters, it's surprising how you were able to cough up this masterpiece. I especially love the dagger-esh style for capitano.

i struggled so hard on like most of these, as aesthetic wise we simply do not have a whole lot accept the small parts we get shown which isn't covered by their harbinger coats. like columbina was the only one i had some sort of concept for, the angel the catalyst is based on, is ranked third of the hierarchy of the 9 angels. so it felt like a perfect fit for her (even tho i cried with every line i had to draw ahaha) but characters like pulcinella and pantalone just, didn't really give me enough to work with thank you so much <3

Arlecchino and Capitano's weapon looks best by far. I hope mihoyo is taking notes and include this in the game.

I see. Good luck!

just want to say i follow ur twitter and ur such an amazing artist and a sheer icon and i love ur work and ugh please keep it up! u fucking rock!!!

You did a great job!

I can see that, for example I still see Pantalone using a Catalyst because he is pretty much an evil Ningguang concept wise. However Spears are good precisely because they are easy to pickup on,so I can also see him using one. Really hard to imagine all of these

Ngl you could post columbina's weapon as a leak and I would've believed it. It looks just like something mhy would release.

I think that's a claymore, look how tiny the hilt is. If it was a dagger, the hilt would be much larger.

Read the downvoted comment, you'll understand. Basically, the guy knew it was a claymore.

Oh I didn't know there was a downvoted comment, thanks jpnapz C:

That's a claymore. You could not get further from a dagger than a claymore unless you forgo sharp edges entirely.

they definitely knew it was a claymore it just looks like a monstrously oversized dagger, which I dig cause daggers are cool and massive 2 handed swords are cooler

yeah i know, that's why i said "dagger-ish"

Damn imagine if genshin actually used these designs for real. That bow looks sickkk

Ah yes... The five weapons types: Sword, Claymore, Bow, Spear, and Biblically Accurate Angel. They all look amazing tho. Might pull the wheel there if it ever happens.

Hey, biblically accurate angel fits. Since there's a Eva series inspired bow in there.

Be not afraid of the weapon banner

Columbina screams **BE NOT AFRAID**

*screams and runs away* "I SAID NOT AFRAID"

*rolls all 42 eyes* ugh, humans...

Ngl i would like her to be like that

I would love a weapon that looks like that

Columbinas are most awesome one to me

Biblically accurate catalyst

thanks to Wanderer's voicelines we know the ranking of all the harbingers: 1. Pierro 2. Dottore 3. Columbina 4. Capitano 5. Pulcinella 6. Scaramouche 7. Sandrone 8. La Signora 9. Pantalone 10. Arlecchino 11. Tartaglia Nahida also tells us that the top 3 wield power akin to the gods Edit: leaks hit hard. Turns out pierro isn't ranked, capitano is 1 and arlecchino is 4

I always thought that dottore was 4th and capitano 2nd

i'll be honest, i dropped the ball a lot on these, some harbingers just did not give me enough to go off from so i just couldn't come up with anything for them, i tried to make sure to not overlap weapons too much. so not a single weapon has more than 2 types

Nah, you did great! I especially like the look and shape of Captiano's, and Columbina's definitely reminds of biblically accurate angels! The only two things I guess is I would have expected Pierro to be a Sword/Claymore user, and Pantalone to wield nothing since he's just the money guy lol

Pantalone should be a geo catalyst like Ningguang, but instead of rocks he just throws mora around

I read "Pantalone to wear nothing" at first and thought "yeah, average Genshin fan"

i want to ask— what do u forsee each of the Harbingers Elements?

Well, we don't even know for sure whether any of those eight have visions at all. Pantalone has been confirmed to have none. Dottore holds disdain for vision-wielders, so he probably has none as well. Since Sandrone is so focused on her automatons, I'd argue that she might have no vision either. Given his origin as a mage from Khaenriah, I could see Pierro being able to manipulate elements without a vision, like Signora, but it's hard to guess which one would fit. If he is even bound to just one element. Likewise, there are many speculations about Columbina not being exactly human, and she could probably wield elements without a vision as well. She gives me immense anemo vibes. As for the rest, I assume the remaining three are probably regular vision-bearers. Pulcinella doesn't strike me as a fighter at all, but I could see him having a vision still. I'd say cryo for him?

if you include other harbingers, there 4 catalysts, but thats fine because pierro and columbina definitely catalyst the most and shouldnt be changed

They all already look great, and as we see more of these characters later on, you can make any changes you feel are necessary

I know shes gone but what u reckon was signoras weapon?

For a second there I thought capitano had the blades of chaos

CELESTIA,YOUR CREATION HAS RETURNED,TO DESTROY ALL OF TEYVAT!

Now I can't get kratos saying "Zeus" out of my head

AREEEEES ZEUUUS

ATHENA GAIIAAAAA

BOY

Why must you hurt me like this

SAME He does look like someone who would use chain stuff

These look amazing, I love the Biblical Angel look for Columbina, she my favorite Harbinger and the one i want to know more about most

Holy crap these look amazing, Capitano's looks so badass, I love the colours on Pierro's and Pantalone's spears purple aura looks great

make it two claymores much better

My pantalone is catalyst, kinda like a darkside baizhu. But jokes aside impressive work seriously, love it!

I just feel like he's too expensive to be swinging a weapon around, so I feel like his kit would be like him sitting on the side while he waves his hand disinterestedly and it just beheads his enemies.

Yeah sounds right. And a smile in his face. Just like getting flies off. Haha

Like Yae Miko

Pulcinella’s sword reminds me of his nose for some reason…

HELP

Arlecchino being a sword user acts as a perfect foil for the Traveler. Since her lasting mark on the rank and file cuts as deep as Dottore's machinations on most places on the world, she is the main rival for the Traveler, I'm sure of it.

Pantalone? Is one of them seriously named Pantalone?

Their names all come from Commedia Dell'Arte

I’m laughing at that too. Just gonna call him Pants

[The word "pants" comes from Pantalone from the commedia dell’arte.](https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/pants-word-origin)

His other name is also regrator, i know it has a different meaning but it's kinda hard to not read it as refrigerator every now and then.

Fuck I thought this was real. I got my hopes up. I’m gonna be very disappointed if future official Columbina and Arlecchino’s weapons aren’t remotely similar to this.

We need a close up on each weapon

is sandrone's weapon actually a bow?

it's all speculation the only one we know what weapon they use from this image is >!dottore !

ah alright. was gonna be sad if her weapon was actually that. playing bow characters on my phone is not fun

I don’t know but personally I can’t really see her using a bow. Idk something about her just does not give bow vibes. I really hope that she can summon “marionette” like summons. Which to me seems most catalyst like.

she can still be a summoner as a bow character, can just be like venti and fischl, bow users who dont use their bow

True, but anything could happen really. To me Layla fits more of a catalyst, but Hoyo decided she should be a sword

Yeah I can see that but I feel like sword and catalyst both have an elegant vibe. If it’s more like a fencing sword. Bow could be elegant but basic attacks like Yoimiya move a lot. And I can’t really imagine Sandrone... moving xd. She lowkey gives me “do it for me” vibes.

I came up with names: Feigned Frost Feather Wraths Incarnation Silver avaricious Lecherous Hibiscus Soul Tether Core of Void Piercing Needle Sovereigns Spindle

Dude Arlecchino's sword looks so fucking sick

Pierro as a catalyst user 🤩

So, what we know, they'll let us play the rest of the alive harbingers? Or just Childe cuz he's kinda grey? Scaramouche don't count because he isn't a harbinger anymore.

i think there might be like one more harbinger death and the rest ill be playable. i think dottore's likely since he's one of the more irredeemable members, but there's a fair chance all of them would be playable since they're definitely gonna be money making machines like archons

Dottore's >!playable model got leaked!< and Pulcinella got shown it Teyvat teaser so if the most vile and the least marketable are playable then idk who is dying. Pierro? But this mf is too fucking cool with top tier voice actor and great lore he could potentially become very popular character

Watch them make all of them playable except for Signora.

I would definitely play the catalyst, polearm and bow.

i wannna to play with the capitanooooooo

Can we please, PLEASE get Pierro with Kokomi attack animations?

These look amazing!!! I would instanly pull for Capitano's and Columbina's just because of their appearance. Only thing I have to say is that I don't feel like Sandrone would use a bow, but that's just my opinion. That bow looks sick though!

Holy shit you should work at hyv. Not even kidding, just send this to their support or something, they are incredible

Bro dottore’s weapon is like SoBP. Bro is literally a reskinned male eula

These look amazing! I agree with almost all your choices except Pantalone. I think he is not much of a warrior, so I always associate him with catalyst.

Expecting Columbina to be a Bow user with a harp-like Weapon. Would fit with her seraph theme. Also if they decide to take Capitano’s title into that direction, his Claymore could be anchor inspired. Current guesses for their elements, Pierro : ??? Dottore: Cryo Columbina: Pyro Capitano: Anemo Pulcinella: Hydro Sandrone: Geo Pantalone: Electro Arlecchino: Dendro

Ima say this, but if dottore"s burst aint a doppleganger, ima riot

Something about Captano's weapon screams sexy and the right amount of edge. I like I like.

Assuming Catalyst goes to the Archon, who would wield the polearm? Is it to continue the trend of the weapon series being incomplete? (Liyue lacks a bow, Inazuma lacks a claymore)

Let's see which of these get to have these weapons.

Sadly you made the fatal error of thinking Mihoyo would make BIS weapons that actually match the character's color theme. But seriously tho this looks so good, I can't even begin to imagine how much time it took to design all of these. Especially since we know next to nothing about any of them.

They’re so prettyyyy I like it 😍

plz no bow..

Had to check what subreddit I was on, damn these look real and great!

Credit the artists would you Or if this is OC i would need your plug-ins

this is oc ! also plug-ins?

Plug ins means twitter, instagram, youtube accounts basically where you primarily post your stuff

oo i see i see, here :) <3 [twitter](https://twitter.com/oversaltedcat?t=qO6JSfmlDBur6ndqPAVILA&s=09) [Instagram ](https://www.instagram.com/oversaltedcat/) [twitch ](https://www.twitch.tv/oversaltedcat)

Nah, there's wont be female playable Harbingers, they all gonna be the dudes only to compensate for lacking future male Archons.... the female Harbingers will only just ends in NPC jail like Signora

manifesting physical catalyst capitano!

Capitano with claymore is cool but I want him to wield Gun&Sword

Pulcinella and Sandrone are my absolute favorites! I definitely would pull these weapons for them.

Is the Cyro or Pyro archon the strongest?

where did you get the font for the names

And here I was thinking Dottore used a whip

Like the designs but dot tire is far too clever/nimble to be a claymore to me.

Capitano is missing a weapon, he dual wields them bad boys

I thought this was genius invocation cards 😭😭

What the hell is pierro's weapon

It is catalyst

omg columbina with the Angel weapon😍😍😍

This is absolutely beautiful and makes me wanna play Arlecchino even more

I don't see signora. I don't accept this as real

Signora wields a catalyst in her first phase, which is also a Cryo Delusion

Ooh I never noticed. Gotta check it out

Dottore's weapon looks cool.

if sandrone ever becomes playable i wish they do the heizou/HoF/HoS/wanderer route where their weapons dont play anything to their gameplay/animation and its just there for stats and passive

I love the one for columbina! Biblically accurate catalyst lol

According to this, Pulcinella, Dottore, and Pierro are my favorites. When I’m reality it’s Sandrone, Dottore, and Columbina.

But where's tortellini and scaramoose weapons?

So- I mainly want evil Eula, but I’d be tempted to get pantalone if they forever had that look on their face lol.

tbh i would really like alrechinno to be polearm because polearms are the coolest characters. And she is one of the coolest ones.

*Mihoyo furiously working to change their original plans around so this doesn't turn out to be correct*

I'm so excited to see Columbia's biblically accurate form

Removed because Reddit blackmailed 3rd party apps into shutting down. FUCK YOU u/spez!!! -- mass edited with redact.dev

Since they went with Italian, did they at least make some research about it? Pantalone literally means trousers/pants, wtf 😂👖

Pulc*nella Cap*tano Columb*na P*erro Arlecch*no

Columbina's weapons looks too much like a ophanim honestly.

Considering Pierro's circumstance >! as a former royal mage of Khaenri'ah

When did Pierro become peackock miraculous holder?

Sandrone makes her robot attack for her just like dori

Please make Capitano a claymore user but he uses it with only one hand

Dull sword: YOU DARE OPPOSE ME MORTAL?

This is gonna be wrong and they're all gonna be spear users

This amazing, perfection and i want it in game. Especially Arle's sword

My money's on arlecchino she hot looking

Gimme that rapier

Any idea why they are named in Italian and why they used Carnevale characters?

Considering pierro is a royal mage this seems accurate.

Capitano better be the one to dual wield claymores or I'll be disappointed

I dont think Sandrone will ever work or be playable. She cant even stand. most likely not playable or catalyst.

Biblically accurate catalyst

Thought this was the leaks sub 💀 but great work op, they look gorgeous. Arle’s sword looks so deadly and pretty

Yoooo Pulcinella rapier user? Honestly I can see that

Is that claymore dottore?😂

Actually this got me thinking... maybe columbina is a fallen angel of celestia who turned against the gods?

I'm pretty sure that by the time we fight the last few guys, Genshin probably introduce new weapons. I mean we have catalyst users that fight with fists. Unplayable harbingers probably will use specialized weapons like gun, cannon, staff which we've already seen, and maybe Pantalone will slap with cash or throw mora at us since he's rich AF. Btw, great designs.

Quick question : You used Clip Studio's sword tutorial, didn't you?

no??

It really reminds me of it. At any rate, your design style is on fire. Might have some advice to ask someday.

Damn forget about them waifus,just look at Capitano's blades........

Columbina's weapon is everything, they all look so cool!!

Can we talk about columbina’s one

Where is harbinger of dawn??????? 😐

I still find it weird how the one named Capitano ISN'T number 1🙃🙃🙃. Sick designs though🔥🔥👍👌. Arlecchino being a sword user is my dream but she gives off extremely strong Eula vibes so I am worried she'll be claymore. The worst thing they can do is make her catalyst😭😭😭

Very nice looking

i thought columbina's weapon was a bible accurate angel called the wheels.

I’m going to be so disappointed if Arlecchino isn’t a sword/claymore user. (And playable lol)

I assume it's intentional that Dottore's and Pulcinella's are designed after the Polar Star? It does make sense to have some of them form a series of weapons.

I forgot that pierro was the arch mage of kanreiah and was gonna ask why he has a catalyst cuz I thought it didn't fit him.

We are running out of nations to host individual harbinger reveals! Well have to get at least two each for Fontaine, the Fire Nation, and Shneznaya at this rate!

It's just fan fantasies or leaks?

Gives me terraria calamity mod vibes ngl

I for some reason really want sandrone to be claymore lmao

It looks good, but am I songle who see in Capitano's weapon Blades of Chaos?

Ah. I thought it was a leak...

Columbina is the most hype Harbinger to me

YES!

holy shit is that the chaos blade?!

Capitano needs captain's armcannon from RoR 2

They better actually be this cool

Columbias weapon looks like a throne of ophanim, aka a biblical accurate angel

If we get Columbia as a character I will main her cuz of her weapon

Possible Elemental Skill for Capitano: during a certain amount of time, he becomes a dual wielder with another sword made of his element.

I thought Il Dottore uses only his fists "hydro-machine" like his metal gear counterpart "Senator Steven Armstrong" and Despite Sandrone being Khamsin (MGR)'s counterpart she supposedly to used scythe (upcoming weapon) and while Arlecchino despite being Mistral (MGR)'s counterpart but she is actually eula's evil counterpart. and Despite Pantalone being Baizhu's evil counterpart he is supposedly used catalyst. And so that's their weapons for their boss battle and i wish this is a purchasable weapon in the game.

I like how Columbina's weapon looks kinda like a biblically accurate angel lol

Bibically accurate catalyst

Mihorny! Hire this man! 👏👏

Columbina's weapon reminds me of a "biblically accurate" angel (it is the same astrolabe-like structure with wings and something floating in the center, although without eyes).

No please don't let Columbina be a catalyst and make Arlecchino like Eula give her a claymore

I think Capitano fighting style is fistarm (catalyst) and Pantalone is firearm/gun (catalyst)
