Iansan, Varesa's mentor, offers a glimpse into her personality, describing her as:

"Varesa, my most peculiar student… No one matches her easygoing, carefree nature. No matter where she travels, she’s like a child on an adventure—always searching for delicious treats or a cozy spot to rest... But beware! If you ever fight Abyss monsters with her, the moment she gets into the zone, she turns into an unstoppable force!"

Joining Varesa in update 5.5 is Iansan, who transitions from a non-playable character (NPC) to a playable 4-star Electro user wielding a Polearm. Her transformation into a playable character has fans buzzing with anticipation.

Varesa shares her admiration for Iansan, saying:

"Iansan is Natlan’s top trainer and the person I admire the most! People say I’m talented, but without her training, that talent would have gone to waste. Don’t worry if you’re not used to working out—Coach Iansan knows how to train anyone! Oh, by the way, wanna check out this flyer? She’s recruiting new students!"

With these two electrifying additions to the Genshin Impact roster, players are eagerly awaiting the release of update 5.5 to experience the unique abilities and stories of Varesa and Iansan firsthand.
