Genshin Impact: I'm Convinced I Know Who Mavuika's Pyro Hero Is (& It May Surprise You)

I think I may have uncovered who will be Mavuika’s Pyro hero in ’s story arc in Natlan, and it may seem surprising from an initial standpoint. At the moment, the narrative presented in Version 5.0 introduces players to the Nation of Pyro and some of the first troubles Mavuika and her compatriots are facing, considering both the Fatui presence and the Abyssal incursion that is bound to overtake the entire region if not stopped. Natlan’s characters in are uniting to help face these threats, and Mavuika is assembling heroes to represent the Nation of Pyro’s efforts.

This article contains spoilers for the Natlan story arc and speculation about the possible outcome of some plot points.

Near the end of the Archon Quests in Version 5.0, Mavuika showed some of the designated heroes deemed worthy to fight the Abyss alongside her. These heroes are representatives of the different playable elements and their respective tribes across Natlan. So far, the story quests have shown that Xilonen is the Geo hero from the Children of the Echoes, Kinich is the Dendro hero from the Scions of the Canopy, Iansan is the Electro hero from the Collective of Plenty, and Mualani is the Hydro hero from the People of the Springs. That leaves two heroes remaining in the game.

Based on tribe leaks so far, the Pyro and Anemo tribes are the next ones to be introduced, with Cryo or Electro being the remaining ones. With Iansan already appointed as an Electro hero for the Collective of the Plenty, there is a chance that Cryo will be left out of the equation, meaning that the two remaining champions in Mavuika’s plans will be from the Anemo and Pyro tribes. While unconfirmed, it seems like Chasca is building up to become the Anemo hero of Natlan once she unlocks her powers and is acknowledged by her Ancient Name.

That would leave Pyro as the remaining element needing representation. So far, the upcoming revealed Natlan characters do not include another Pyro unit other than Mavuika, but it is uncertain
