Who is Rhinedottir

Khaenri'ahn Alchemist

Rhinedottir hails from the fallen nation of Khaenri'ah and is a renowned Alchemist from the nation. She's also otherwise known as "Gold" because of reaching the peak of Alchemical sciences.

Master of the Art of Khemia

Among the types of Alchemy, Rhinedottir masterfully practices the Art of Khemia, the alchemical science practiced althroughout Khaenri'ah. It's the same kind of alchemy she's imparted to her creation, Albedo, which he now practices perhaps with the same fervor and mastery as his teacher.

The Art of Khemia focuses on creating and birthing life, apt to the existential condition of lacking natural flora and fauna, long before Khaenri'ah fell.

Creator of Synthetic Life

It's through the Art of Khemia that Rhinedottir successfully created the Kreideprinz, Albedo, as well as the befallen dragon Durin. Aside from these masterful creations, Gold has also created a number of monsters which contributed, albeitly fatally, on the fall of Khaenri'ah and the invasion of Teyvat.

Durin of Humus

Described as a skeleton dragon with glowing red eyes, Durin is one of the monsters that Rhinedottir successfully created. From Durin's earliest recollections of her mother, Gold, he was told to display his beauty towards the sun with pride.

While it can be assumed that Durin may have misremembered this recounting, it's clear that he was determined to go the land of song and freedom, Mondstadt, where he had met his death on the hands of Dvalin and Barbatos.

Hunting Hounds of Alfisol

Another creation of Rhinedottir are the Riftwolves, monsters of the Abyss who acted as the vanguard during the Invasion of Teyvat, around the same time as the Cataclysm, 500 years ago.

Because they're created by Rhine, the involvement of Riftwolves were presumed to be on the account of her command.

Albedo the Cretaceous

The current Albedo of the Knights of Favonius, is the second and the most successful version of Rhinedottir's Primordial Human Project.

He received the title of Kreideprinz from Rhine shortly after disappearing, and is deemed the "Cretaceous", the greatest work of them all. The first Albedo prototype ended up in Durin's belly, after deeming as a failure.

After decades of lying dormant within the befallen dragon's belly, the Albedo prototype planned to usurp Albedo's place among humans during the Shadows Amidst Sandstorms event.

One of the Five Sinners of Khaenri'ah

As revealed by Dainsleif, Rhinedottir is one of the Five Sinners of Khaenri'ah, alongside Vedrfolnir, Hroptatyr, Rhinedottir, Surtalogi, and Rerir. Although it wasn't detailed what exactly is the Sin of Gold, it's safe to assume that it's closely related to Art of Khemia, the pinnacle of Alchemy practiced in Khaenri'ah.
