Venti

==Summary==
Venti, also known as Barbatos, is the Anemo Archon that rules over the nation of Mondstadt.
Known publically as Venti, one of the many bards that have arrived in Mondstadt, he spends his time singing songs and poems to earn his keep before indulging in Mondstadt's famous wines. As he reveals to the Traveler early into the Mondstadt Chapter, he is the Anemo Archon Barbatos and recruits their help in finding a way to appease Stormterror Dvalin.

|-|Venti=
Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Inorganic Physiology (Venti is a wind spirit, and thus is comprised entirely of Anemo energy, making him immune to effects that rely on a normal human biology, such as Barbara's healing magic, or getting bloated or drunk from an endless supply of wine from the Dawn Winery), Self-Sustenance (Type 2), Immortality (Type 1), Master Archer, Magic, Air Manipulation, Summoning and Limited Telekinesis (like all Allogenes, Venti can freely summon and telekinetically move his primary weapon), Transformation, Speed Amplification, Elemental Intangibility and Flight (can transform into Anemo energy for greater mobility, increased speed and flight), Forcefield Creation (like all Allogenes, Venti can erect an elemental shield to defend against attacks from far stronger opponents), Duplication (with Splitting Gales, which triples the amount of arrows he fires per aimed shot), Limited Resistance Negation and Durability Negation (with Breeze of Reminiscence, which reduces opponents' resistance to physical and wind-based attacks when struck by Skyward Sonnet; also with Storm of Defiance, which decreases opponents' resistance to wind-based attacks even further when struck by Wind's Grand Ode), Statistics Amplification (with Hurricane of Freedom), Illusion Creation (used magic to disguise the Holy Lyre as repaired in order to temporarily appease Barbara), Disease Manipulation and Empathic Manipulation (As the Anemo Archon, Venti can release concentrated elemental energy which can cause effects similar if not worse than Smaragdus Jadeite's concentrated elemental energy which vary from illnesses at best to changes in personality at worstGenshin Impact; Mission A Teapot to Call Home; Part I), Soul Manipulation (his winds carry the souls of the fallen back to Mondstadt), Resistance to Disease Manipulation and Empathic Manipulation (Visions or Gnosis users can resist the effects of Smaragdus Jadeite), Immunity to Poison Manipulation (Venti is entirely comprised of Anemo energy, and thus is unaffected by standard poisons, as shown when he was incapable of getting drunk off of a ludicrous amount of Diluc's wine)
|-|Barbatos=
All previous abilities to a far greater extent. Shapeshifting (took on the form of his deceased friend upon obtaining his Gnosis), Power Bestowal (Barbatos granted his power to the Four Winds of Mondstadt, and later again to Dvalin), True Flight (Barbatos can freely fly through the air using "the power of a thousand winds"), Energy Manipulation (Barbatos can freely control Anemo energy, allowing him to rapid fire magical bolts at his targets), Purification and improved Empathic Manipulation (with the Holy Lyre der Himmel, which he attempted to use to pacify the maddened Dvalin)
</tabber>
Attack Potency: Mountain level (The weakest of the Archons, fought Dvalin while amping Traveler, Jean, and Diluc- implying superiority to them, despite this, should not be inferior to the Liyue cast) | Island level+ (Lifted and threw the largest mountain in Teyvat)
Speed: SupersonicMach 1.97 (Should be comparable, if not superior, to Jean and Diluc, as he was the main defense in the fight against DvalinGenshin Impact: Prologue Act III: Song of the Dragon and Freedom) | Supersonic+Mach 3.14 (As the Anemo Archon he should be immensely superior to mortals such as Clorinde and Yelan)
Lifting Strength: Unknown | Class P with winds (Moved Pilos Peak, the largest mountain known to have existed in Teyvat, over Mondstadt, and into the deep oceans)
Striking Strength: Mountain level | Island level+
Durability: Mountain level (Should be comparable to Decarabian) | Island level+ (Comparable to his Attack Power)
Stamina: Superhuman (As a wind spirit by nature, Venti is composed entirely out of Anemo Energy and so won't run out of stamina until his Anemo Energy is exhausted) | Unknown 
Range: Hundreds of Meters with his Bow and Magic | At least Tens of Kilometers with his Gnosis (Flattened the mountains that once comprised the regions around Mondstadt with his winds）
Standard Equipment: Skyward Harp | The Holy Lyre der Himmel
Intelligence: At least Gifted (Despite his antics, Barbatos has many displays of intelligence when he takes his job as Archon seriously, such as when he deduced the truth behind Stanley the Adventurer and when he tricked the old Mondstadt aristocracy into losing their power during the time of Vennessa's rebellion. He also used his winds to guide the fall of Durin to the mountain that would become Dragonspine to eternally freeze the deadly poison that leaked from its corpse)
Weaknesses: None notable
Notable Attacks and Techniques:
Anemo Gnosis: The Gnosis is a divine tool used by The Seven Archons to resonate with and directly channel elemental energy from Celestia, granting control over the elements far surpassing that of any number of Visions. It gives each Archon their status as divine protectors of their respective lands and grants them far greater elemental power than they would've had before. In the case of the Anemo Archon's Gnosis, its power is also what allowed Venti to change his shape and granted him enough strength to dispel Decarabian's storm walls, shatter the icy landscapes of Andrius and reshape the whole geography of Mondstadt. After losing his Gnosis, Venti uses his natural abilities as a wind spirit to channel Anemo Energy instead. 
*Skyward Sonnet: Summons a wind domain around Venti which deals Anemo damage and launches enemies into the air, falling down slowly thanks to the winds keeping them airborne.
*Wind's Grand Ode: Fires an arrow made of countless coalesced winds, forming a massive Stormeye that forcefully pulls in objects and enemies, cutting them to ribbons in the winds. These winds can absorb elements to increase the damage dealt by 50%.
*Splitting Gales: Clones Venti's arrows, firing three with each aimed shot.
*Breeze of Reminiscence: Skyward Sonnet decreases opponents' Anemo RES and Physical RES by 12%. Opponents launched by Skyward Sonnet suffer an additional 12% Anemo RES, and Physical RES decrease while airborne.
*Hurricane of Freedom: When Venti picks up an Elemental Orb or Particle, he receives a 25% Anemo DMG Bonus.
*Storm of Defiance: Targets who take damage from Wind's Grand Ode have their Anemo RES decreased by 20%. If an Elemental Absorption occurred, their RES towards the corresponding Element is also reduced by 20%.
