Not OP, but Paimon being something else other than le wacky guide is probably the most telegraphed plot twist of all time (this doesn't necessarily mean she will be evil)
-First of all the elephant in her room: her name
Paimon is named after an Ars Goetia demon, just like every other Archon in the game (Barbatos, Morax, Beelzebul, Buer, Focalor)
-She's clearly an anomaly in the world visually, yet no one really comments on it. All the time it's just "oh hey its the Traveler and their funny little floating companion!". No one freaks out over seeing something they have NEVER SEEN BEFORE. No one mentions "holy shit what the frick is that?". Everyone just accepts "yep, Traveler got a lil fairy". Likely it's the Heavenly Principles fricking with everyone's mind/perception to ignore the irregularity of Paimon's existence.
-Her sleeves and boots share the design of the Archon statues made by Celestia.
-In an unrelated quest, Paimon randomly completely the inscription of the sundial about the previous God of Time. Despite the usually ditzy Paimon being unable to remember anything other than Mora and food.
-And this is just metagame stuff but Paimon is the only living being that keeps on moving when you pause your game
TL;DR: Paimon is the God of Time/reincarnation of the God of Time (like Nahida)/a singular fragment of the broken God of Time
Despite being one of the first theories on who Paimon is, this one seems to make most sense still
Which also mean that probably other 3 shades are/were the rulers of Celestia, the one we meet at start of game is one of Paimons 3 sisters
My prediction is that Celestia is in ruin and its where Paimon was killed, cowardly Archons are just too afraid to confront it or too young to have been there during archon war, Cryo archon is the last one to oppose it and will not be one not villain but an ally by the end, so Harbingers will be more of forced allies from now on against who ever survived the Celestia clash and the Abyss faction wanting its vengeance
So far with how Fontaine quest is going my prediction seems to hold, though i wonder if the other alien arrivals will play a role in the story or will be left as an ancient curiosity and reason for all the fighting
It's obvious she was supposed to be evil in the original script however they have now gone hard on the chinese teletubbies vibe so no one will ever be truly evil and no one important will die.
I dunno, they made Nahida act weird when she read Paimon's mind
I think they are in that weird spot of being too commercial or go full suffering alas Honkai
I hope not. I could swear scaramouche popularity dropped hard when they made him le poor misunderstood guy instead of the traveler who called the sky fake and knew Teyvat was a simulation like in the first event
Hell if you remove the music in the english version you can hear Katherine talking like a robot and glitching
I'm not irrationally hating on Genshin because it's the "hip" thing to do, but I have been consistently disappointed by the way everything unfolds in this game, and I mean everything, from character lore to global story. It always sets up mysterious / ominous stuff, has cool environmental story-telling that really makes u think, you have crazy conspiracy theories popping left and right, but then it's like they pussy out at the last moment, everything was just a quiproquo and they sanitize all the cool stuff they were letting us having a glimpse at to turn it into a lame and boring shit stuck between marvel and modern anime.
Not judging anon, I'm one lf those who found Scarahat interesting and I still can't get over his lame backstory and redemption.
I think we need to wait after ice and fire archons to see where the story goes after them.
This is more a culture thing and fans these days unable to accept a favorite character being evil, everything needs to be commercial and "otakus" became too fricking sensitive and cringe, and this is coming from a very weeb guy, but internet made people too autistic and sensitive so we will never get cool plot twists anymore
>fans these days unable to accept a favorite character being evil
It's fricking weird
Used to be, the "evil" factions / characters were the cool thing, everybody wanted to play the "bad guys", like I'm pretty sure more people wanted to play Helghasts in Killzone than the boring not-US Marines we had, even fricking harry potter tumblrinas couldn't STOP gushing over Slytherin chads
I do not understand the world anymore, I think I am old

They think they are bad for liking an evil character, its pretty moronic
Beginning of genshin was darker, the comics were also darker, hell remember Dottore raping (implied) and torturing a little girl? That was glossed over
it wouldn't surprise me if scara was never meant to be playable, or any of harbingers with the exception of tartaglia.
but because of his popularity they had to make him playable and the writers had to work around that, i expect something similar will happen with arlecchino.
yeah, also iconology shows shes loyal to you, obviously Traveler = Lucifer, and Paimon is his most loyal servant
the demon names werent chosen at random, Genshin writers really like to make side lore and reference other media or books
no shes not, lorelets think she looks kinda simillar to another character, but dont bother to fallow the over arching plot
It's obvious she was supposed to be evil in the original script however they have now gone hard on the chinese teletubbies vibe so no one will ever be truly evil and no one important will die.
moronic take, from version 1.0 celestia is in the sky, it shows up in the comic and there is a island in corner of the map dedicated to one of the 4 first gods that phanes created
while it wasnt until fontaine where dragons and phanes are directly mentioned in an archon quest, it was always part of the lore
Paimon is evil?

I hate that it’s going to take years for us to get any more info on her if at all.
All of that is incorrect. Paimon is not a God of Time, Paimon is a flying onahole destined for impregnation by me.

No.
Only during sex
She might be evil but she'll not turn on (you), for (you) are the Lucifer of Teyvat.
NYOOOOOOO
yeah, also iconology shows shes loyal to you, obviously Traveler = Lucifer, and Paimon is his most loyal servant
the demon names werent chosen at random, Genshin writers really like to make side lore and reference other media or books
So is Teyvat some sort of Hell dimension?
Is Teyvat in some weird loop like in Devilman Crybaby?
no shes not, lorelets think she looks kinda simillar to another character, but dont bother to fallow the over arching plot
moronic take, from version 1.0 celestia is in the sky, it shows up in the comic and there is a island in corner of the map dedicated to one of the 4 first gods that phanes created

Yes in Hereditary
Emergency onahole
Will they ever give her a backstory or will she forever just be my travel companion?
My wife!
Paimonahole
EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD EMERGENCY FOOD
That's it! Open your mouth anon...
Holy puffy
Paimon would be so fun to lick all over
I would fill her up every night
with good food
and a good dicking
Her canon weapon.
>the title changes
The only lewdable e-girl in Genshin is Nahida, and maybe Yaoyao.
So the twins are not siblings, but one of them is just like Raiden and Scaramouche?
