What is Aether’s origin story in Genshin Impact?

Aether is a choice between siblings called The Traveller. You can choose between Aether and Luminato to be the game’s protagonist. They were both worlds travelers until their encounter in Teyvat with the Unknown Goddess. After the destruction of Khaenri’ah, they arrive at Teyvat. Here, Aether lost all his powers and lost his sister in the process.

The Unknown Goddess traps them in stasis, and when one of the siblings awakes, the other finds that their other half is nowhere to be found. The protagonist Aether’s main plot is to find his lost lister, Lumine. With this motive, Aether sets out to find his other twin and starts his mission to uncover The Seven.

Aether is accompanied by Paimon, whom he saves from drowning in a lake in Teyvat. He teaches Aether how to speak in the Teyvat language, and Paimon tells Aether of The Seven and sets out on a journey starting at Moon City.

Aether is the more calm and collected twin among the two, and at the same time, he is more outspoken and carefree. When it comes to his sister Lumine, he becomes very emotional and has a very soft spot in his heart. Since Aether is older than Lumine, he sends up being the one to decide any major dilemmas that the twins may face ultimately.

With his sister’s loss to the Unknown Godfdness, Aether becomes a more dismal character, expressing sadness and loss with the character’s personality.

How to cosplay as Aether from Genshin Impact?

Both characters of The Traveller have blonde hair, but Aether’s hair is more vibrant than his sister Lumine’s. You can get a similar wig at Cosplay Hero, made of premium quality materials, so it looks like the real deal. Aether is fair-skinned, with a slender frame and yellowish-golden eyes.

Both the siblings/characters do not have a vision, but they can still use the Archons, elemental powers. The player’s clothing glows with different colors based on whichever element they draw their power from. For example, when Aether uses the elemental power of Geo, the clothes become yellow. When the power is borrowed from Anemo, the clothes become real, and when Aether uses Electro elements, his clothes will become purple. So you have many options when it comes to cosplaying as Aether, The Traveller.

The outfit:

The siblings have contrasting color schemes when it comes to their outfits. Aether has a white, black and golden type of theme which perfectly matches his personality in the game. Whereas for Lumine, the color scheme followed is blue, white and gold.

It is also easy to spot him on the battlefield. Similarly, you can also stand out from the crowd wearing our Aether cosplay costume from our website. For Aether’s outfit, you can start with the dark brown colored breastplate, which is accented with black and gold colors. Ensure that the armor bars your midriff and add a white-colored scarf underneath.

The scarf is kept in place with a gold ring that gets clamped around the scarf. Along with this, you should remember to add a two-tailed cape in a similar white shade. The details of this cape are done with gold colors, and these golden yellow details on the cape is embroidered.

Your left shoulder is covered with gold plating that acts as armor. You can look at the reference pictures we have on our website, where you can also purchase the complete set of Aether’s outfits in the game. Another detail to remember is the white gold earring with tassels worn on Aether’s left ear. The bottoms on this costume are dark hakama-type pants with black boots, and the boots also have some gold detailing around them that ties the whole costume together.

The wig you get for Aether’s character is of a medium length with long bangs, very similar to the one we have on our web page. The back part of the wig is braided just like the video game and tied together with a white and golden colored band with tassels.

The Travelers’ characters have significant pieces on their outfit that are different for both. For Aether’s character, you will find it on his chest and his earring. You can also find this minute detail on different parts of the armpit, such as the gloves, decals on the cap and gloves.

The color of these pieces changes according to whichever element the character is currently using in-game. When the episode starts with the Traveller’s introduction, both siblings, Aether and Lumine, wear white and gold caps. When the battle with the Unknown God progresses, Aether’s whole outfit turns black. This version of the outfit can also be made similar to the Aether costume set in black. In the game, when your character interacts with the first statue, the clothing changes colors and reverse to brighter colors. After this incident, the now black outfit becomes a light teal color.

The color scheme of the Traveller’s outfit changes based on whichever element they are boring at the moment. Hence, you have more choices to choose from.

The outfit that Aether wears in the game is called Rising Star. The outfit is designed so that it is comfortable for long journeys. This convenient clothing option comes as no surprise since the character’s name is The Traveller, implying that the character often moves from place to place. This is the main benefit of cosplaying as Aether, and the clothing will be comfortable for long hours of wear movement.
