This video explains Adepti and illuminated beasts in Genshin Impact. This video also took 12 hours to make due to insane software and hardware issues that required me to reseat my CPU and took multiple failed renders that took hours, so I do hope you enjoy this video that probably was not worth trying to fix for 12 hours straight. But nonetheless I hope to see you in the next video and thank you for watching!

Probably based on chinese daoist mythology where they have animal gods and half gods, like Sun Wukong is probably an illuminated beast.

@@Tomy_Lightning Monkey King is an integral part of chinese culture, since Genshin is a chinese game, why can't they put a monkey into the game? Why are whales, dragons not a problem, but monkeys are? Even DragonballZ is based on the monkey king and that was a huge succes!

Great video! Also I think another thing worthy of note is that in the Chinese and Japanese version the Adepti are referred to as 仙人(Xiānrén/Sennin; “Fairy Immortals”), which makes them synonymous to the Xian (仙 “Taoist Immortals”). In Journey to the West, Sun Wukong, a monkey, is treated as equal to human beings in that he is able to achieve immortality through means of Taoist cultivation (thus becoming a Taoist Immortal) , which I guess is part of the reason why many Adepti have animal forms.

@DeathClassic
@DeathClassic 2 жыл бұрын
Great question. Long story short, Diona is apart of a race of people that happen to have some cat-like features. Sucrose isn't 100% sure why she has similar features, but has scientifically proven she's not the same as Diona. You could argue they are technically illuminated beasts, because there is some discrepancy on whether or not ALL "illuminated" beasts must have a vision because of some dialogue lines Madame Ping says, but you can think of them as something similar to Yanfei. They have beast-features because of their lineage, and though maybe they could be considered illuminated beasts especially because they have visions, they definitely aren't Adepti. I wish I included them in my video!

@@DeathClassic I also noticed that all the adpetus were all in liyue. Would that mean that if any other region had “magical” illuminated beasts would they be called something else or would they still be called adepti?🤔

@@iamnumber4ization Well Adepti have to serve morax. So if you were from Mondstadt, were an illuminated beast and served morax, technically you would be an adepti too. The region is merely coincidental considering Adepti defend Liyue, so naturally they'd be from Liyue. Also, most of the Adepti existed since before Liyue existed, so we think of them as being from there, when in reality they existed far before its creation

Adepti is a title given by Morax for illuminated beasts who have sworn contracts to protect Liyue. Now, if for some reason Morax granted a contract to an illuminated beast who perhaps was to protect something else or whatever other stipulation, and he still gave them the title of "Adepti", then they wouldn't necessarily be exclusive to Liyue.

That would be "yaoguai" (妖怪/strange demon), adepti (仙人/xianren/immortal) are a bit different. While I think some yao can also be xian (like the fox spirit hulijing), for the most part, xian are more of a celestial being or lesser god.

Can you please make a video that’s kinda like a TL;DR on present day Teyvet? Like from the moment the Traveler was separated from their sibling to whatever the recent update is? I’m so lost. All the other videos go into depth about Genshin’s history rather than what is presently going on in the story. 🥲
