==Appearance==
The Raiden Shogun is an adult woman with long braided violet hair behind her back and a hairpin, which belonged to Beelzebul's twin sister, Raiden Makoto, on her right side. Her eyes are purple and she has a beauty mark underneath her right eye. She wears a small crimson ribbon on her neck as a choker and a dark-coloured bodysuit underneath her kimono. The sleeves of her bodysuit completely cover her arms and are looped over her middle fingers with golden rings to partly cover her palms and the top of her hands, and her nails are painted purple. Her kimono has an assortment of patterns in different shades of purple and crimson, along with a badge bearing the emblem of Inazuma tied to the front of her clothing below her right breast and a more elaborate emblem on a pauldron on her left shoulder. On the back of her outfit, she wears a crimson bow with tassels. She wears dark purple thigh-high stockings with small diamond openings at the top and high-heeled sandals; the one on the right is adorned with two pale violet flowers.
Unlike the other known Archons, she does not appear to wear a 'fake' vision, as none of the electro gems on her clothing appear in the shape of a typical Inazuman vision. Instead, all three of these emblems (one tied to her lower chest, another on the 'fan' on her back and another on her pauldron) all glow faintly when her elemental burst is charged, somewhat similar to how the Traveler's clothing glows.

==Biography==
Ei and her twin sister Makoto, known by their divine aliases Beelzebul and Baal respectively, ruled jointly over the nation Inazuma. Ei acted as the body double of her sister, assuming the role of Baal when it was needed but otherwise remaining in the shadows. As far as Inazuma's people were aware, there was only one God watching over them.
After Makoto died during the cataclysm that destroyed Khaenri'ah, Ei assumed the mantle of Baal and became the sole ruler of Inazuma. As the God of Eternity, Beelzebul sought to attain eternity for herself and Inazuma. In order to preserve her own mind, Ei created a puppet called the Raiden Shogun that would take her place in the real world while she retreated into her Plane of Euthymia where she could meditate for the rest of time.
Five hundred years after Makoto's death, the Raiden Shogun came under scrutiny after she introduced the Vision Hunt Decree that would demand all Vision bearers to hand over their Visions. Although Beelzebul initially supported the Shogun's decision, she was eventually convinced otherwise by her old friend Yae Miko and a Traveler who used the collective will of the people to defeat her.
==Powers and Abilities==
According to Kaedehara Kazuha, the Shogun herself has the ability to control the nature itself much like the other Archons such as Venti and Zhongli who can reshape the land to their own bidding. Her ability to control the nature comes from the part when she is able to control the weather into becoming nothing but storms and rains just with the power of her mind. In addition to all of this, Beelzebul also mastered a sword technique known as "Musou no Hitotachi", which is a symbol of ultimate power and the pinnacle of her skill as she uses it towards the people that lost to a duel against her. In the trailer for Inazuma, it is shown that Beelzebul can extract a sword from her own chest.
*Nigh-omnipotence: As a member of the Seven Archons, Beelzebul has near-limitless power. She possesses a wide array of near-omnipotent powers. During her boss fight, she is capable of disabling the player characters' elemental powers (except for the Traveler) due to her Vision Hunt Decree. Her godly physiology also attributes these powers. 
**Superhuman Strength: Beelzebul's strength exceeds greater than that of an average human. According to the stories, her vast powers has cut the serpent Orobashi into pieces, resulting in a rift that cleaved Yashiori Island into two known as the Musoujin Gorge, the concentrated Electro energy around the waters of the gorge was also a result from her finishing move.
**Superhuman Durability: Due to her godly physiology, Beelzebul is superhumanly durable. She was never truly defeated until the Traveler uses the omamori given to her by Yae Miko which allows them to tap into the confiscated visions and effectively abolishing the Vision Hunt Decree, causing her to be defeated in the final duel at the Plane of Euthymia.
**Superhuman Agility: Beelzebul is superhumanly agile, as attributed by her Electro abilities. She can swiftly dash through her enemies at insane speed as well as blink through them at will.
**Umbrakinesis: She can manipulate the darkness and transport the Traveler through the Plane of Euthymia at will, her meditating place.
**Electrokinesis: As the Electro Archon of Inazuma, Beelzebul can manipulate the power of electricity, posssessing a wide array of electric-related abilities. Her infamous yet peculiar ability is manifesting an Electro sword from her chest.
**Weather Manipulation: Beelzebul can summon raging storms around the waters of Inazuma after establishing the Sakoku Decree.
*Engineering Skills: Beelzebul has created a puppet clone of herself known as the "Raiden Shogun" who has a cold, stern personality. This puppet possessed a lot of her abilities. She has also created a prototype of the puppet prior who would later become known as "Scaramouche".
*Swordsmanship / Master hand-to-hand combat: Beelzebul is a master hand-to-hand combatant especially in using katana. She uses her Musou no Hitotachi to deal the finishing blow against both Kazuha's friend and La Signora. She was also seen defeating Kujou Kamaji easily in a one-on-one duel as well the Traveler at the first confrontation.
*Immortality: Upholding the ideal of Eternity, Beelzebul has also lived around thousands of years, and while she can die, she cannot age inside the Plane of Euthymia, where she resides. If she does leave for a prolonged length of time, she is vulnerable to Erosion, which affects all long lived beings, such as Azhdaha, The Weekly Geo dragon boss that resides in Liyue.
