Paimon Across Mythology And Media

Genshin Impact

Paimon, 派蒙 Pàiméng


In Genshin Impact, Paimon is the Traveler's companion and guide, playing a central role in the game's story. She is a mysterious floating being who was rescued by the Traveler after being fished out of the sea. Despite her cheerful and bubbly personality, Paimon's origins remain unknown, and she has hinted that she may not be from Teyvat. Paimon serves as the game's mascot, appearing in official artwork, promotional materials, and even as the icon for the game itself. She is known for her enthusiasm for food, her loyalty to the Traveler, and her occasional bluntness when interacting with other characters. Some players speculate that Paimon may have a deeper connection to the game's overarching lore, possibly tied to Celestia or the Unknown God who separated the Traveler from their sibling.
