Summary
Genshin Impactfans have noticed an interesting detail about one of the game’s most important characters, the fan-favorite Paimon. SinceGenshin Impactlaunched in 2020, Paimon has been part of each of the Traveler’s adventures.
At the moment, Paimon is an open-world NPC who also serves as the Traveler’s main guide. The two met when the Traveler fished her out of the sea, after which Paimon mentioned that she would have probably drowned if not for the heroic rescue. Even though Aether and Lumine are the two main characters inGenshin Impact, Paimon is widely regarded as the game’s primary mascot.
An interesting post shared by Reddit user ThrowawayPersonAMA has highlighted a unique detail about Paimon and food vendors. The post, which has gathered over 2.3k upvotes, claims thatfood vendors inGenshin Impactalways sell meal items in pairs because one is for the Traveler and the other is for their most loyal companion, Paimon. Many replies in the comment section suggest that players never noticed this small detail and often wondered why they couldn’t buy just one meal. A few fans claim thatGenshin Impactis one of the best live-service games when it comes to implementing such subtle details.
Genshin Impact: Paimon’s Moon Sister Theory Explained
Even though Paimon has been part of the game since the very beginning, not much is known about this mysterious character. The main storyline also suggests that even Paimon does not remember much about her life before meetingGenshin Impact’s Traveler. There is also not much information about Paimon’s true intentions, but she always stays by the Traveler’s side and feels anxious when separated, as demonstrated in the recent Natlan Archon Quest.
Since there is little official information about Paimon, many intriguing fan-made theories about her existence have emerged over the years. The most popular theory suggests that Paimon could be one of the threeMoon Sisters inGenshin Impact, a possibility hinted at by certain characters. For example, when Kazuha first appeared, he mentioned that the Traveler and Paimon have the “essence of the stars,” possibly alluding to their connection to the cosmos.
DuringGenshin Impact’s famous Aranyaka World Quest, an NPC named Arama also refers to Paimon as a silver being, just like the moon in the sky. Whether these theories are true or not, one thing is certain, Paimon’s identity remains one ofGenshin Impact’s greatest mysteries. Players will likely have to wait until all seven major regions are revealed to get more credible information.
