Version 5.3 Release Date and Details

Citlali Kit and How to Use

Cryo Shield Support

Citlali is able to generate a Cryo Shield, and her whole kit is centered around this core mechanic, being able to sustain and keep her teammates alive while shredding enemy resistance.

With that in mind, Citlali seems to be best suited as a Shielder Support in Freeze and Melt teams that brings comfort and enemy debuffs with her Shield and presence.

Elemental Skill Summons a Cryo Shield

Citlali's Elemental Skill places her into Nightsoul's Blessing and generates a Cryo Shield that protects On-Field characters from damage.

After a certain Nightsoul Point threshold is met, the Shield begins to fire Cryo particles at nearby opponents, dealing Cryo DMG to them.

Passive Lowers Enemy Hydro and Pyro RES

When Citlali enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state, she lowers the Hydro and Pyro RES of nearby opponents when they are affected by Frozen and Melt reactions.

This allows a Hydro or a Pyro DPS to deal more damage in Freeze and Melt teams, further leaning Citlali into her supportive role by giving her not only a shield, but also a RES shred.

Elemental Burst Deals AoE Cryo DMG

Citlali's Elemental Burst has her using both of her plushies to deal AoE Cryo DMG in an area.

This seems to be a way for Citlali to aid the team with on-demand Cryo application and DMG.

Recovers Nightsoul Points When Used

Upon using her Elemental Burst, it also has the added benefit of restoring Nightsoul Points back to Citlali, allowing her Shield to persist longer before having to go on cooldown.

Can Shoot Up Into The Air

As a member of the Masters of the Night Wind, Citlali can jump and glide, as well as enter the Spiritspeaker state to interact with Nightspirit Graffiti as a clan-exclusive strength.

Natlan Release Date and Map Guide

A Genius Priestess

Aside from being an elder of her Tribe, Citlali is a well-renonwed priestess who can do divinations, fortune-telling, and a lot more. Her craft of divination, however, seems to be different from Mona and her master's Hydromancy.

This talent and brilliance, however, is a double-edged sword for Citlali, as people are terrified of her stroke of genius, rendering her feeling lonely for the longest time.

Citlali Voice Actor

Citlali is voiced by Skyler Davenport in English, and Tano Asami (田野アサミ) in Japanese!

Thoughts About Citlali

Character	In-Game Thoughts
Chasca	My dad told me that when I was little, they gathered all of the most learned elders in Natlan and asked them to come up with a plan for managing my Abyss condition. They all disagreed on the best approach, and it turned into a drawn-out debate. At some point, Citlali quietly left the room, but they were all too busy arguing to notice. When she got back, she put some food and wine down in front of her, ignored everyone, and just started eating... the table suddenly went very quiet. Just by looking at her, you'd never know how much seniority and experience she has.
Kachina	Mualani told me that you were only able to save me thanks to her invention, so I have to accept my share of the responsibility for the destruction of the Spiritspeaker Stone. I worked up the courage to apologize to her in person, and asked her to pick a few rocks from my collection as repayment. She scratched her head and said, "Well, it'll become an issue if I don't pick one, won't it? Then... We'll be even as long as I pick something reasonably similar, right?" In the end, she waved me off after taking the most unremarkable piece of obsidian I had. What do you think? Should I try to get her something else? Do you know the kind of thing she likes?
Kinich	As you can probably guess, I've taken jobs from her before. I helped her purchase a heavy stack of paper-based reading material from an Inazuman merchant. Not to pry into my clients' private affairs, but... don't the Masters of the Night-Wind use woven fabric instead of paper?
Mualani	Granny Citlali is without a doubt the most experience priestess I've ever seen. She's more than just an elder, she's like the coolest elder ever! Her predictions are always super accurate. A long time ago, she said the lucky colors for my business were pink and blue. Sure enough, pink and blue floaters are now my top sellers! While I was bugging her...uh, I mean, visiting her recently, she mentioned there was an outlander who could bring me good fortune... Ah, wait a sec! Aren't you an outlander!?
Ororon	Granny is actually a very straightforward person. She wears her emotions on her sleeve, you know? It's hard for her to hide what she's feeling. You're the same age as her, right? Or... are you even older? Sorry, I shouldn't ask. That was probably rude... But, if I'm right, maybe you could spend more time together. Granny's been surrounded by people younger than her for a long time, and she's probably had enough. I know she'll be happy to see you.
Xilonen	Citlali would occasionally come to my workshop to buy some ore. According to her, some ores can be crushed into powder and taken as medicine to help her with divinations and ceremonies. Hm? Have I ever asked her to read my fortune? No, I'm not interested in knowing the future. I already have enough to worry about with all my present work. Besides, I always get sleepy during divination rituals...
