The Eleven Fatui Harbingers

House of the Hearth Head

Genshin Impact - The Very Special Fortune Slip Quest Guide
Arlecchino was briefly mentioned by Lyudochka Snezhevna in the Very Special Fortune Slip quest. Lyudochka lived in an orphanage, which is the House of the Hearth itself.

“Father” of Lyney and Lynette

Genshin - Arlecchino, Lyney, and Lynette

In the Prelude of Blancheur and Noirceur, it was revealed that Lyney, Lynette, and Freminet are under the House of the Hearth. They refer to Arlecchino as their "Father".

Lyney mentioned that one day, Arlecchino will pass down her role as "Father" to him.

Mentioned in the Her Foes Rage Like Great Waters Quest Chain

During the Make Bright the Arrows, Gather the Shields Quest, Oreste Snezhevich mentioned he joined the Fatui so her sister will not get sent to the House of Hearth, although he also explicitly mentioned that the place is by no means bad.

In the English dialogue, Arlecchino was referred to as a "he," but this is most likely a mistake.

Arlecchino Lore and All Known Info

Originally From Fontaine

It was revealed in Chapter 4: Act 3 - To the Stars Shining in the Depths Archon Quest that Arlecchino was born in Fontaine.

All people from Fontaine are born with ''sin'' that can only be washed away once they dissipate in water, according to Chapter 4: Act 1 Archon Quest.

As a person born in Fontaine, if all dissolves into water, she'll be included in it. It's likely one of the reasons why she's working to solve this particular issue.

Chapter 4: Act 3 Archon Quest Guide

Seems to Have a Twisted Nature

Genshin - Seems to Have a Twisted Nature
At the start of the Fontaine Archon Quests until Act 4, Arlecchino seems to be working on something good. From adopting Lyney and Lynette to finding a way to counter the prophecy.

However, Scaramouche and Tartaglia in their voicelines, think she has a twisted nature who only puts up a polite and kind front but will betray even the Tsaritsa if it benefited her.

Adopted Lyney and Lynette

Genshin - Adopted Lyney and Lynette
It was revealed in Chapter 4: Act 2 Archon Quest that Lyney, Lynette, and Freminet are part of the House of the Hearth. From Lyney and Lynette's character stories, it seems like an organization that adopts orphans to train them to undergo Fatui-related missions.

When Lyney and Lynette were under different foster care, they would perform small magic tricks for Nobles. One noble in particular took interest in Lynette and their then-foster father forcibly gave her away.

She was later saved by Arlecchino who adopted her and Lyney. Their new home is called, Hotel Bouffes d'ete, where other orphans serving under Arlecchino lived. As they do their missions, eventually the twins receive their visions.

Trying to Solve the Fontaine Crisis

Throughout Act 1, Act 2, Act 3, and Act 4 Archon Quests, Arlecchino seems to be taking steps to stop the prophecy.

She sent Lyney and Lynette to investigate the Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale and to investigate the Forbidden Zones in the Fortress of Meropide in hopes of finding clues.

Used Childe's Arrest to Investigate

Genshin - Used Childe
Using Childe's arrest when he was judged guilty by the Oratrice, she requested to have ''tea'' with Furina to investigate her. This later turned into questioning what Furina was doing to stop the prophecy and if she had any contingency plans for it.

Attempted to Assassinate Furina

In Chapter 4: Act 4 Archon Quest, Arlecchino attempted to assassinate Furina and take the Gnosis, but she stopped mid-way. She sensed that Furina wasn't like a god at all and that she seemed to be ''under some kind of curse''. The Gnosis was also not in her possession.

Helped in the Disaster in Fontaine

In Chapter 4 Act 5 Archon Quest, Arlecchino helped in Poisson when it flooded and took the lives of some of the people there. Eventually, when the ''prophecy'' in Fontaine happened. She sent Fatui members to help the people recover from the nationwide flood.

Afterward, we meet her in Romaritime Harbor where we give her Childe's vision so she can pass it to him when she goes to Snezhnaya. She even said that she'd want to work with the Traveler once again in the future.

Obtained the Hydro Gnosis

Genshin - Obtained the Hydro Gnosis
Arlecchino received the Gnosis from Neuvillette as a sort of reward or compensationfor helping Fontaine when it was in dire straits. However, Neuvillette then clarified to the Traveler that he did that because Skirk mentioned that keeping the Gnosis will only attract misfortune.

According to Skirk, the Gnoses are from the remains of the Third Descender. Since Neuvillette is officially the one governing Fontaine, he thought it was better to give it to Arlecchino instead. It remains to be seen whether Arlecchino knows about this.

Character Thoughts on Arlecchino (The Knave)

All Available Lines on Arlecchino (The Knave)

Character In-Game Thoughts
Genshin Impact - Freminet ImageFreminet About “Father”
Tears: “Father” doesn't like it when children cry. “Father” says tears are the product of emotion and weakness. So when “Father” scolds me, I hold it in until I'm underwater, where no one can hear me cry. At least I have the Romaritime Flowers to keep me company.
Teaching: When I was little, I was taught that we should be ready to give our lives for our family. But when "Father" took control, this philosophy changed. "Father" said that every one of us is important, and we have to value our own lives, be our strongest selves, and stand on our own two feet in this world... But actually, all of that's much harder than just following orders.
Genshin Impact - Furina ImageFurina About The Knave
The Knave? Wh-Who's that? Oh... Uh, I'd already forgotten about her... Keeping such a terrible figure like her in your mind will only give you nightmares.
Genshin Impact - Lynette ImageLynette About “Father”
Oh, how ''Father'' expresses love... well, not everyone can accept it. But it is only because of "Father" that home... can be called home.
Genshin Impact - Lyney ImageLyney About “Father”
Family: "Father" gave us a family, raised us, and told each of us what we should work towards. In turn, what I can do is very simple... Remain loyal, and protect our home.
King: To be updated soon!
Genshin Impact - Navia ImageNavia She is a formidable but caring leader, and definitely comes across like a master of the house. But she's still a Fatui Harbinger, and that means she must have a more ruthless side. So don't worry - while I'll still always appreciate what she did for Poisson, I'm not about to let my guard down around her completely.
Genshin Impact - Tartaglia ImageTartaglia About The Knave: Look, I've got nothing against people who have their own agendas — I myself joined the Fatui to get more experience in combat. But I don't like her at all. If she stood to benefit from betraying others, she'd turn against the Tsaritsa in a heartbeat. There isn't a sane bone in her body.
Genshin Impact - Wanderer ImageWanderer About The Knave: A wolf in sheep's clothing. To exert a higher level of control over people, she puts on a graceful and cordial front. Most of those who have seen her true, crazy self... have gone poof.
