Iansan, who has been closely associated with Varesa, offers a unique perspective on her:
"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!"
Alongside Varesa, another character is making her debut in update 5.5: Iansan. Previously an NPC, Iansan is now stepping into the limelight as a playable character. As a 4-star Electro user, she wields a Polearm with precision and power.

Varesa shares her admiration for Iansan, shedding light on her role and influence:
"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 the introduction of these dynamic characters, update 5.5 promises to add fresh excitement and strategic depth to the Genshin Impact universe. Stay tuned for more details as the release date approaches!
