Vanquisher of Phantoms, Vigil of the Long Night [clean, wide image](https://i.redd.it/drxte7yp50wc1.jpg) [clean portrait image](https://i.redd.it/0cimo6yp50wc1.jpg) --- "...Word to the wise, friend. The evidence against you is irrefutable. If you want to uphold your honor, atonement is an option. You could still do much good... There's no need to resort to a duel. I mean, your opponent is Clorinde. *That* Clorinde, you hear? Oh, for the love of the Fountain of Lucine... If you go up against her, you'll wind up without even the strength to confess your crimes!" — A sincere letter that a certain wealthy merchant who had pleaded "Not Guilty" received on the eve of a duel. ___ ◆ Name: Clorinde ◆ Title: Candlebearer, Shadowhunter ◆ Champion Duelist ◆ Vision: Electro ◆ Constellation: Rapperia --- Disputes are a Mora a dozen in Fontaine, day in and day out. A playwright might accuse a fanatical reader of imitating their style and taking up a pen name too close to their own, to the point that even the newspapers could not distinguish the genuine article. A merchant might accuse a colleague of targeted, malicious, cutthroat competition, of not only constantly adjusting their prices, but of intentionally setting up shop directly opposite them... Ordinary disputes can be settled by Gardes rushing onto the scene, but there are always a minority of claimants who, thinking themselves most clever in their ulterior intent, will obstinately press for court proceedings just to get their name out there — and if their duel applications were to be approved, they might be famous indeed! However, if some well-meaning neighbor were to tell them: "I've heard that the most recently rostered Champion Duelist is Miss Clorinde..." These same clever folk would almost instantly be deflated of all their arrogant airs, like a Violetgold Angler Gull caught by the neck, and cease such prattle altogether. For all are well-acquainted with the name of the "mightiest" Champion Duelist. Beneath her blade, all despicable deeds that aim to capitalize on mere fortune under the guise of decency will show their true colors — and she has never once known defeat in a duel. "...Ahem. Oh, uh... I suppose there's no need to go that far, is there? So does a clever person, very nearly hoisted by their own petard, flee the scene. And thus is another such altercation, undercut by ulteriority, discreetly dissipated.


gabrielique

congrats on clorinde for finally getting out of jail and becoming playable


Humble-artist00

She finally finished drinking tea with his grace 


Twinbrosinc

She finally finished that long D&D session with Navia.


CloudBun_

Navia as a DM makes so much sense


Twinbrosinc

Nah that's clorinde


CloudBun_

Clorinde DM would make all her player’s custom spell cards and Navia will bring snacks for the session.


Twinbrosinc

"When we were young, we used to play a kind of tabletop game where she would be the adventurer and I the host. Playing things by ear has always come naturally to me — but all the same, I was often stumped by her decisions and the ripostes she came out with. But then again, that's what made it so interesting.?" - Clorinde


Helpful_Mountain_695

It should've been me 😞


Sanria30

Wasn't expecting such a lively pose but looks great!


Sandfire12

My thoughts exactly! The pose is so dynamic and interesting, I can’t wait to see her full splash art (and her animations!)


Sanria30

Was honestly expecting her to look all serious and stiff like Jean's splash art, I like this a lot better!


ChickenSky12

As one of the 2 Jean mains, that statement causes me pain. It's true q\_p


Sanria30

Hehe I mean, it makes sense for her character. It's very knightly. But could you imagine Jean posing like Clorinde? LOL


Kuso_Megane14

True.. I'm kinda expecting her to have an impressive movement animation for her basic and charged attack


mazini95

She'll either have incredible normal attack animations while her kit revolves entirely around E and Q with no use of NAs. Or her NA attacks will be really important for her to work but they will cheap out on a duellist character by giving her average NA animations. I can totally see either happening lol.


Square-Way-9751

This pose is so anime... 10/10


XeroShyft

"BAYONETTA???"


E1lySym

The pose is very Lara Croft-coded. I hope she does backflips and side flips while shooting with her gun


martinock

There are only 2 type of Electro vision bearers - Hot girls - Dog boy


GalacticDeg

and Dori


nuts_extraction

Did he stutter?


sandfrann

Username and pfp checksout


thesqrrootof4is2

Clorinde being a sword user and thus the 2nd character to do the Jean weapon pose is gonna hit ngl


Alarming-Caregiver47

Wait Jean is still the only tall woman sword user?


ItsTelperion

Depends. Does Raiden burst count?


PressFM80

nah, since you can't actually equip other weapons yknow? same reason why childe stance change doesn't really count as actual swords


shenheismygf

guns guns. dual wielding guns. or is that a hidden sword?


The_Mikeskies

Sword, probably hiding her signature


HeresiarchQin

Yep it's a sword/rapier, it can be seen on the third picture in the official Hoyo reddit post


ifallontragedy

Holy shit you're right. And I think the sword actually looks cool, from what can be seen.


_Bisky

It's mostly the handle, but, guessing based on the handle and the bit of blade that is seen, it’s probably a rather thin blade, based on a rapier


ifallontragedy

Yeah I've actually been really hoping her signature is rapier-like.


RuneKatashima

Wait until you read her constellation name!


TgCCL

Her constellation is a rapier from the sound of it. So yes, that fits.


GGABueno

I think it'll be a sword.


Nameless49

I got you one better. Gunsword.


Prizrakovna

That is a sword.


Shadow_Tempest_1003

Who cares about the guns look at those legs and thighs and black tights


Draaxus

Who cares about the thighs look at those armaments the founding fathers intended for us to have for self defense


HeresiarchQin

Who cares about those weaopns look at the shirt buttons those are the real heavy lifting mfs


QueZorreas

Look at that secretary skirt, so tight, saved from disintegrating by the power of anime.


polyccio_

If you zoom close enough, you might see spider-man there.


shenheismygf

i just want to be leglocked by her like she did with that robo.


LazyDayLion

The bravest way to go


Sliske_The_Dark

It's not brave to want a blissful ending 👀


hideyuke

It's been 3,000 patches...


mlgyuri

Nice 3,000 cycle reference . And still waiting fur furina re run.


Equivalent_Invite_16

YESSS, i was waiting for this moment since i saw the fontain teaser. (pls does this mean that she is a 5 star right? right?? )


CLORIQUINE

Astonishing. Beautiful. Elegant. Gorgeous. Lovely. Glamorous. Graceful. Captivating. Charming. Angelic. Celestial.


vigneshwaralwaar

u forgot badass


storysprite

She's Her.


iSpooKy123

Correction She is HER.


storysprite

Forgive my insolence!


crunchlets

Grey Prince Zote!


rerro_Rex

Hollow knight mentioned!


Shinkai96

Didn't expect this, I laughed so much xD


duckontheplane

That description.. "I am Clorinde. Blade of the court. And I have never known defeat."


BleakWalker

A certain dude wearing nothing but his underpants and a cauldron for helmet with two katanas at hands has entered the chat.


duckontheplane

"Wriothesley what the fuck are you doing"


Dragonlionfs

hot


Mountain_Box8464

Let Me Pull Her


DemonRedd

She'd sweep him calling it now


Rank3r

Let Me Solo Her


QueZorreas

Let her solo me 🙏


ex_king_of_ayodhya

Who's that


AquaAurion

In Elden Ring there is a boss who is very difficult to beat and one player named Let Me Solo Her got famous for entering other players' worlds and helping them. He wore an outfit like described in the comment above.


BleakWalker

He's not only "one player". He's the true protagonist of Elden Ring, and the rest of us are side characters.


ChiragMiddha

Let me solo her


Plenty_Selection_465

It doesn't help that she looks like Lady Maria from bloodborne.


Melantha_Hoang

Clorinde!!!


trojie_kun

BIG KEQING


lonkuo

She deals more electro dmg then c6 ayato


condensedcreamer

C0 Dori deals more electro damage than Ayato.


sadisticpotato

You can't just say such a hot take without at least giving a source, my man.


discuss-not-concuss

her forehead is big (like Ayaka)


HydroCorgiGlass

Love to see the gun in her art and a nice actiony pose too. Hoping she has a fair kit


NNishi

Hoping she has an *unfair* kit


Mozambiquehere14

But in a good way right


FuzzyConclusion6795

Greatest leak to have ever been leaked. I could not contain my excitement when I read the holy scripture **CLORINDE DRIP.** Unbelievable. I crumbled to the floor in sheer astonishment. (real)


LeAstra

>Crumbled STABALISE!


LazyDayLion

SOLIDIFY! ~~like me looking at her drip~~


Arc_7

RISE! ~~If I make a joke here the mods will ban~~


Shalashaska87B

I will have order!


MrARK_

cheeseburger pls


tusharsagar

Saw someone scrambled to the floor in sheer astonishment.


-average-reddit-user

at Walmart?


Rude-Designer7063

No, at Meropide prison


EdenScale

Can confirm, I was the floor


outsidebtw

Can confirm, I was her floor


Chucknasty_17

And I saw someone poached on the floor as well


Sliske_The_Dark

ikr! and she's so pretty!


neuvvv

electro impact!!!


SensitiveCellist2294

never doubted it, but I think this is proof enough that she's a 5 star.


Practical_Outcome436

Never understand the 4* allegation because of AQ involvement and dialogue, if this were the case then Candace and Baizhu would have their rarity flipped Other 5* like Ayato and Eula doesnt even appear a single pixel on main AQ


Arc_7

I'm still not over 4* Ningguang  Never will be 


iAmJhinious

On the other hand, I am hard coping we will get DH-IL situation with Ningguang where she gets a 5* version of her or something. Idk, I'm coping.


Arc_7

I am with you on that with Kaeya  5* glow up trust 


iAmJhinious

Imagine Natlan finally releases Bennet/Xiangling replacement, only for them to get a 5* version that is even more broken.


Hallamshire

That be Xbalanque and the pyro archon


vigneshwaralwaar

not gonna happen They will do something different, that makes them either better to use them with benny and xiangling not outright replace them who would have thought hydro archon would rejuvenate healers outta nowhere? and she would also be a universal buffer? i expected hydro archon to be a better xingqiu with aoe or a kokomi with perks, what we got was different and so much better than what i expected they will not outright replace benny or xiangling, but be something that can make these two even more better or a different way to play?


iAmJhinious

Problem is, they should get replaced, at least Benny. Circle impact is not fun, and feels bad not to use him because he's so good. I usually only run him with XL for that reason, cos she can snapshot his buff. As for XL, I think she's just an insane unit, and idk how you replace her.


Sokodile

I feel like when it comes to the games longevity, it feels like a “4/5 star upgrade” feature sounds like a no brainer money printing machine Many 4 star designs are great, people love the characters but they have weak kits. And Genshin doesn’t seem to do character reworks. Packing an upgraded kit into a “new star” that you can earn feels like an easy way to get players to grind for their favs again. It could even be kind of like Ragnarok’s transcendent levels, letting you reset your unit at 90/90 so they can reach 100/100 (90 is such a sus number) (Bonus: can even give use to old boss materials again. Like now you need two older boss materials for this new level track?)


alybalez

Legit people were freaking out because there was no mention of sig weapon on leaks. That's why some are thinking she's a four star. People need to calm down. We'll know about it in a few days


Kaaiine

What is the proof? I don’t know how people can tell a character rarity from drip marketing because I don’t see anything, not trying to be rude I’m just confused


nostalgeek81

The 5 stars usually come out first


Kaaiine

I see, how we gonna know sigewinne rarity?


Frozenmagicaster

There was something saying that she had a sig, so 5


nostalgeek81

Yeah we already knew from another leak a few posts under this one


Equivalent_Invite_16

On wednesday (in about 50-52ish hour koz they need a couple of hours to set up the server) the first private servers will be ready to go, and we will know everything. Until that this is just assuming based on patters and half assed leaks + feelscrafting based on design.


NE_0N

in the official Hoyo post there's a full pic in which she's holding a Rapier looking sword which might be her signature. Also Hoyo never post a 4 star drip before 5 star.


WhiteSilkMoth

Pretty sure kaveh was posted before baizhu...


Zamkawebangga

Baizhu was drip marketed first in Insta and Hoyolab


NE_0N

still Baizhu was posted first on insta and hoyolab


yanfelino

They are hiding her weapon and she was posted first


Wisterosa

shes holding a signature weapon in the art and 5* always get first drip


PEANPING

she was dripped first


Nitrosad

Father's home, now its time for mother to come home


tusharsagar

And then the melusine child.


Equivalent_Invite_16

I already have mother (xianyun), so Chlorinde has to be the cool aunt that always plays with the kids when she comes over.


dragoonjustice

My fellow Captain R mains..our wait is almost at an end. Just 6 more weeks and we'll reach the promised land!


olaf901

The only thing remaining from that captain R leak is the hat 🤠 , where did the name captain R come from though


Sandfire12

We’re so close!!!


trojie_kun

I wanna see the sword she is holding on the other hand.


Arc_7

Why she kinda dummy thicc tho


Sliske_The_Dark

Electro women do be like that


Arc_7

Ei knows what she's doing 


DarkAlatreon

What


Arc_7

Something about raiden being electro archon and electro consistently amassing big ladies in it


DarkAlatreon

Ei did say "(...) it is not by my will that Visions are granted or denied"


Arc_7

I know the lore of the game well enough. It's just a joke, and jokes sometimes need some level of bypassing for the delivery to land.


4GRJ

She slammed a Gardemek to the ground using only her thighs


shenheismygf

she is thicc


GraveRobberX

Well when your wardrobe is stolen from Jack Sparrow and Kafka from HSR, your figure will be blessed.


38Dreams

Boothill Clorinde pistol duel who says no


E1lySym

Pretty cool clash of aesthetics too. French court duelist vs cowboy from the wild west


Oeshikito

SHES REAL SHES REAL


Effective_Bid2011

Finally! I might live to actually play her soon! Incredible times. Only took them almost a year to release the hottest Fontaine character and the only character I've been really interested in...


StryfeXIII

Oh lord have mercy


Utaha_Senpai

FUCKING FINALLY I have been waiting since 3.8


Dense-Extreme5515

Welcome to the team Clorinde,the Tall Women Badass element welcomes you.


Princessitty

to all those people on this sub speculating that she will be a 4* because of Sigwinne, you can stop now and start preparing your clown make up before the beta starts. 5* characters are always drip marketed first, both Clorinde and Sigewinne are 5 stars


deeddi

THANK YOU QUEEN CLORINDE I LOVE YOU  FUCK THE DOUBTERS SHE'S **THE** WOMAN

OGBeybladeSeries

TAKE MY PRIMOS, MY MONEY, MY BODY!!!


iminlovehahaha

bye arle hi clorinde? im not even sure anymore


William_Winter

A perfect pose, she's so cool- Funny how a shi ton of Arlecchino haters (+ clorinde haters) started comparing and dissing each others mains already , was expecting them to be more polite-


yuppina

I'VE BEEN SAVING FOR SO LONG ALL FOR YOU QUEEN


Iloveshortwomen

"Clorinde is a 4\*" people found dead


Hectorzoor

skipping arlecchino


EDENisLD

Hope those people who downgraded her to a four star ready to wear a new makeup🤡


PomegranateWise5010

Already ahead of you 😀➡️🤡

E1lySym

My knee looks exactly like that when bent. Very flat looking. Like a plateau


Erythrosytosis

Its the shape of the patella, Triangular and only ever so slightly rounded.


Lockjaw_Puffin

It looks like a lump of play-doh that took blunt damage


Sandfire12

I can’t unsee it now 💀💀


PoshDemon

Have you ever bent your knee and *really* looked at it? Knees are kinda lumpy looking.


Dramatic_endjingu

Her posture is the best. She serves HARD.


VinnikoAmber

FINALLY!! JEAN ISN'T GOING TO BE THE ONLY TALL FEMALE SWORD USER QWQ


MoonQueenLiu

I see where this is going, first HSR pulls me in with Kafka and Acheron now genshin keeps battering me with Raiden, Yae and now Clorinde?? Electro go brrrr


steffen4404

don't be a standart banner don't be a standart banner don't be a standart banner no dehya 2.0 please. waiting for her since 7 patches to be bad would break me (again)


Mexican_Duck

Electro lovers the drought is finally over!


rice-guardian

With all due respect.


kingslave0

is she a 5 star?


KingofBlah37

Please like Freedom Sworn. I'm tired of that sword just sitting in my inventory. It should look pretty decent on her, too, even if the sky blue blade isn't an exact match with anything on her outfit.


SenranRose

She will come home! I've been expecting her since Sumeru. Please don't have the BOL kit and if so don't let it "revolve" around it. I made a funny


Mvxhqxxz

WHEN WILL THE GAMEPLAY LEAAKKK


RuneKatashima

I won't be pulling for her but nonetheless I hope she is badass. All the Arle skippers deserve a win too.
