Elements and Archons

Archons grant some of their elemental power to mortals in the form of Visions. Similar in appearance to crystal orbs, they allow bearers to focus their mental energy to use the elemental powers of the archon who blessed them. Once this power is given, the bearers are called "Allogens".

There are seven powers that exist in Teyvat, each with its respective archon and its own region or city that worships said archon.

Element	Region	Archon	Theme
Anemo (Wind)	Mondstadt	Barbatos (Venti)	Germany
Geo (Earth)	Liyue	Morax (Zhongli)	China
Electro (Lightning)	Inazuma	Beelzebul (Shogun Raiden)	Japan
Dendro (Nature)	Sumeru	God of Wisdom	Middle East / India
Hydro (Water)	Fontaine	Goddess of justice	France
Pyro (Fire)	Natlan	Goddess of War (Murata?)	?
Cryo (Ice)	Snezhnaya	The Zarina	Russia

Status Effects

Just coming into contact with the elements will cause the character, enemy or object to be afflicted by an elemental status effect.

Element	Effect
	Slows the target's movement speed.
	Water bodies afflicted with Electro will spread the state to nearby targets in the water and will normally cause the Electro Charged reaction when wet.
	Causes the target to become wet, used for elemental reactions.
	Deals damage over time through small burns (~ 3 damage per second).

Inside the Abyss Spiral and some Domains, monsters or objects may have an aura that causes a damaging effect on characters in its area of effect.

The effect can be temporarily undone by intentionally causing elemental reactions in the character. The aura will affect only characters currently on the field.

Element	Name	Effect

	Flaming fire	When affected by Blazing Fire, the character will receive Continuous Pyro Damage. You can free yourself from this state if you remove the Pyro element on the affected character using a Elemental Reaction.
	Condensed ice	When affected by Condensed Ice, Increases Stamina Cost of the character. You can free yourself from this state if you remove the Cryo element on the affected character using a Elemental Reaction.
