Developer HoYoverse shared the overview collected miscellany video for the latest Cryo 4-star character Layla, currently available on the rerun banners of Yae Miko and Tartaglia. After the wishing event ends on December 6th, Layla will be available in the standard wish Wanderlust Invocation in the next Version.
“Dear Mighty God of Wisdom, please bestow your blessings upon this young lady’s sweet dreams.
May she chart out a shimmering sea of stars in her slumber.”
Layla is a student from the Rtawahist Darshan, dedicated to the study of Illuminationism. It is centered around astrology and astronomy, learning of the cosmos and more. Layla herself specializes in Theoretical Astrology. As per her collected miscellany video, in battle she can provide shields for the party and deal damage even when she’s off the field.
Using her Elemental Skill, she casts a shield that absorbs damage for the party and deals Cryo damage to enemies through Shooting Stars while the shield is active. The skill’s damage absorption is based on Layla’s Max HP and absorbs Cryo damage with 250% effectiveness. Her Burst releases a Celestial Dreamsphere that constantly deals Cryo damage to opponents within its AoE.
Additionally, the team shared a new EP – Silhouette of a Wandering Kitsune – starring the enigmatic Guuji Yae Miko. Previously she also made her appearance in Inazuma EP – A Scenery of Skylight and Serenity, you can find both videos below.
“It is difficult for mortals to perceive the many facets of the kitsune, just as it is difficult for kitsune to predict the changes in the human world. The breeze at the top of the mountain is a constant companion, while the only constant in this world is change.”
