Heizou’s Backstory

Affiliated with the Tenryou Commission, Heizou’s commitment to the clan appears questionable. His unconventional actions, as revealed in Kokomi’s voice lines, suggest a lack of interest in military, government, or commercial affairs. Despite being a “self-proclaimed detective,” Heizou’s investigative skills are debatable, and his methods often involve violence, causing distress to those around him.

Heizou’s Abilities

Normal Attack – Fudou Style Martial Arts

• Normal Attack: Performs up to five fisticuffs empowered by a mighty wind, dealing Anemo damage.
• Charged Attack: Consumes stamina and performs a sweeping kick that deals Anemo damage.
• Plunging Attack: Calls a surging wind as he plunges towards the ground, dealing AoE Anemo damage upon impact.

Elemental Skill – Heartstopper Strike

• Tap: Wields a swift wind and deals Anemo damage.
• Hold: Charges energy to unleash a strong blow, increasing the power of Heartstopper Strike. The released strike deals with Anemo damage.
• Declension: Accumulates stacks to enhance the power of Heartstopper Strike. At four stacks, the conviction effect produces a stronger Heartstopper Strike attack in a larger AoE.

Elemental Burst – Windmuster Kick

Heizou leaps into the air, using the Fudou-style Style Vacuum Slugger to create an Arresting Windtunnel. This pulls in nearby objects and opponents, dealing AoE Anemo damage. Opponents affected by Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro receive Windmuster Iris, exploding after a moment and dealing additional AoE damage.

Heizou’s Passive Talents

1. Pre-existing guilt: Decreases sprinting stamina consumption for party members.
2. Paradoxical Practice: Gains a declension stack for Heartstopper Strike upon activating a swirl reaction.
3. Penetrative Reasoning: Increases all party members’ elemental mastery after Heartstopper Strike hits an opponent.

Heizou Constellations

1. Named Juvenile Casebook: Increases normal attack speed and grants a Heartstopper Strike stack upon entering the field.
2. Investigative Collection: Enhances the pull effect of Arresting Windtunnel created by Windmuster Kick.
3. Esoteric Puzzle Book: Increases the level of Heartstopper Strike.
4. Tome of Lies: Regenerates elemental energy for Heizou with each Windmuster Iris explosion.
5. Secret Archive: Increases the level of Windmuster Kick.
6. Curious Casefiles: Boosts crit rate and crit damage for Heartstopper Strike based on the number of declension stacks.
