Genshin Impact is a free-to-play, open-world, action RPG, gacha game released in September 2020 on PC, PS4, Android, and iOS. The game takes place in the rich world of Teyvat, home to seven different nations that are all tied to a specific element. Even though the player follows the story of the Traveler, the protagonist, they can play as many other intriguing heroes.
Meet Qiqi, referred to as the “Icy Resurrection.” She controls the element of Cryo and attacks with a Sword. Qiqi, a five-star character, is dead…well, undead… she is a literal zombie. Resurrected by magical beings and gods called the adepti, Qiqi now works at the Bubu Pharmacy in Liyue Harbor under the care of a strange man named Baizhu.
10 Qiqi According To The Official Website
“An apprentice and herb gatherer at Bubu Pharmacy. “Blessed” by the adepti with a body that cannot die, this petite zombie cannot do anything without first giving herself orders to do it. Qiqi’s memory is like a sieve. Out of necessity, she always carries around a notebook in which she writes anything important that she is sure to forget later. But on her worst days, she even forgets to look at her notebook…”
This is the description of Qiqi according to the game’s official website. She has to constantly remind herself of people she meets and befriends because of how poor her memory is (since her brain is rotten and all). Qiqi must also order herself around whenever she wants or needs to do something, anything for that matter. Fortunately, unlike other zombies, she is her own master.
In addition to little rituals when it comes to trying to remember things, Qiqi carries around a notebook in which she writes all her responsibilities in. Qiqi tries her best to improve her memory, even though she forgets to check her notebook from time to time.
9 Qiqi According To The Game
“An apprentice and herb-picker Bubu Pharmacy. An undead with a bone-white complexion, she seldom has much in the way of words or emotion.”
This is what the in-game character attributes says of Qiqi in the game. She does not talk much, only when necessary, yet acts polite with her customers at the pharmacy. However, Qiqi’s friendly personality changes when Hu Tao, the director of the Wangshend Funeral Parlor, is around. Hu Tao told her that she has a “punchable face” and even mentioned wanting to lock her in a fridge or bury her underground. Qiqi does not keep it cool when it comes to Hu Tao.
8 Qiqi Does Not Look Like Your Typical Zombie
Picture a zombie, with its rotten flesh, torn-off skin, and patches of dried blood everywhere.
Qiqi, on the other hand, has flawless (albeit pale) skin. She has purple medium-length hair, pink eyes, and black-painted fingernails. Qiqi is also in fantastic shape; apparently, she does calisthenics every day to fight off the rigor mortis (because she is literally undead).
When it comes to dressing, Qiqi does not even dress like a zombie. (Do zombies put on clothes even?) She wears a purple frock, a purple beret with a pink tassel, white stockings (that look like bandages), and black heels (with pink pom poms). Qiqi is accessorized with a handful of talismans pinned all over her body and has her Vision (the crystal orb) attached to her side.
7 Qiqi Has Chilling, Creepy Talents
Sometimes Qiqi has the day off from working at the pharmacy, so she adventures around bashing in some Hilichurl skulls. Through the power of her talisman, Qiqi encases her enemies in ice using her Cryo element and then stabs them in the face with her trusty Sword.
Her normal attack is called Ancient Sword Art; Qiqi’s elemental skill is Adeptus Art: Herald of Frost; her elemental burst is Adeptus Art: Preserver of Fortune; Qiqi’s first Ascension passive talent is Life-Prolonging Methods; her fourth Ascension passive is A Glimpse Into Arcanum; Qiqi’s utility passive talent is Former Life Memories.
6 Qiqi Is Quite The Bookworm/Scrollworm
To level up a character’s talents, the player needs to acquire numerous materials. When it comes to Qiqi, she likes Teachings of Prosperity, Guide to Prosperity, and Philosophies of Prosperity; Qiqi also prefers Divining Scroll, Sealed Scroll, and Forbidden Curse Scroll; and she is a fan of the Tail of Boreas.
When it comes to Ascension, Sucrose wants lots of Shivada Jade (Sliver, Fragment, Chunk, Gemstone), Hoarfrost Core, Violetgross, and…more Scrolls (Divining, Sealed, Forbidden Curse). These scrolls are magical, old, ominous, and ancient. It is rumored that those who read them (that is if they can actually decipher them) go mad.
5 Qiqi Uses Pristina Nola
Pristina Nola is the name of Sucrose’s constellation, the character progression system. Each constellation is unlocked with a Stella Fortuna (which is only obtainable through pulling duplicates via Wishes). Pristina Nola is Latin for “The Ancient Bell.”
If the player decides to invest in her, Qiqi can suck even more life out of her frozen opponents and actually revive her fallen allies. From levels one to six, they are Ascetics of Frost, Frozen to the Bone, Ascendant Praise, Divine Suppression, Crimson Lotus Bloom, and Rite of Resurrection.
4 Qiqi Is Actually A Jiangshi
In Chinese legends and folklore, a jiangshi is a hopping zombie (or vampire). These kinds of reanimated corpses are usually depicted as stiff in movement and dressed in clothes from the Qing Dynasty. They get around by hopping and have their arms outstretched (classic zombie). Also, jiangshi kill living creatures and absorb their life force (or their “qi”).
Clearly, Qiqi very much so resembles a jiangshi, except for the hopping around part. That’s why she works out every single day, to continue being able to walk and run around.
3 Qiqi Cannot Taste Her Own Food
No Tomorrow is a special food item that the player has a chance to cook up by making Come and Get It with Qiqi. It is her favorite dish and specialty, made with raw meat, fish, rice, and tofu.
According to the game, “The neat rows of ingredients seem at once exotic and delicious, and Baizhu says that Qiqi has spent a long time creating this dish. Still, once one considers that Qiqi has no sense of taste, just putting chopsticks to the food is going to take some courage.”
2 Qiqi Died A Very Tragic Death
While out picking herbs, Qiqi (just a young girl) got lost and wound up accidentally trespassing in the realm of the adepti. She injured her leg in a nasty fall and limped over to a cavern to rest and bandage up her wound. Then, Qiqi heard strange sounds that did not seem human and, suddenly, she was caught in the middle of a crossfire between the adepti and demons.
Seen as innocent, the adepti put their energy into her and saved her life. Unfortunately, Qiqi went on a rampage upon being revived and was sealed in amber by the Moutain Shaper (a bird god) to stop her.
She awakened for real hundreds of years later after humans discovered her. They tried bringing her to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor for burial (which is how she knows Hu Tao) but she broke free of her amber prison and escaped. Eventually, Qiqi met Baizhu and the rest is history.
1 Qiqi Was Born On March 3
On March 3, Qiqi was born, which would make her a Pisces.
If the player interacts with her on her birthday, she will say, “Today is my birthday. I have it written down, so I can remember.” Or, “Birthday cake? No need. I don’t know how many candles I’d need, anyway. Gifts… nevermind.” Or, “Birthday… I want to spend mine with you. With you by my side, it’s the best birthday. No need for anything else.”
Qiqi also shares her birthday with singer Camila Cabello, actor Jessica Biel, and Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the telephone.
