Rerir represents one of the Five Sinners originating from Khaenri’ah’s golden age while commanding The Wild Hunt as its primary leader. Known alternatively as Rächer of Solnari, he appears positioned as the central antagonist throughout Nod-Krai’s Archon narrative arc. Rerir debuted during Genshin Impact’s Luna I Archon questline, identified by his provocative designation Blasphemy Against Death.

Players naturally question why this ancient Sinner surfaces now and exhibits such diminished capabilities. Columbina disclosed Rerir’s longstanding lunar obsession during their encounter. She further revealed his disappearance shortly following the Cataclysm, with legends describing how “he plunged into the moon’s reflection from which escape proves impossible.” The Wild Hunt’s escalating threat in Nod-Krai directly correlates with Rerir’s vanishing.

Evidence suggests Rerir confronted mortality sometime after the Cataclysm’s devastation. Presently, his fragmented “image” directs The Wild Hunt rather than his complete essence. This spectral manifestation demonstrates heightened lethality and ferocity compared to his original form. Given his supposed immortality from Ronova’s curse, how could death claim him? We explore this paradox in the subsequent analysis.

Rerir has not experienced true death despite appearances. According to his authentic self that materialized during the Luna I Archon Quest, his physical form was shredded into innumerable fragments and cast into time’s turbulent chaos, yet his life force persisted undiminished.

This confirms Rerir’s corporeal existence continues functioning, represented by the “image” confronting the Traveler. However, his consciousness or soul shattered from temporal chaos exposure, developing an entirely new identity. When the Traveler disrupted The Wild Hunt’s scheme for Rerir’s full restoration, revelations emerged that he currently wields merely ten percent of his former might.

Understanding Rerir’s current state requires recognizing the distinction between physical survival and psychological continuity. His body’s fragments remain animated across temporal dimensions while his original personality dissolved, replaced by this more aggressive manifestation. This explains both his continued threat and his unexpectedly reduced combat effectiveness during current encounters.

The five Sinners constituted Khaenri’ah’s most exceptional individuals during its zenith. These elite figures conducted extensive Abyss research, harnessing its energies under Vinster King’s authority. They ultimately failed to contain the Abyss’s corruption and distributed an apocalyptic force capable of “annihilating the world” among themselves. Additionally, speculation suggests this destructive power originated from extraction from sibling entities.

This circumstance contributed significantly to Ronova cursing pure-blooded Khaenri’ahns with eternal life throughout the Cataclysm. Ironically, despite causing the disaster, the five sinners abandoned Khaenri’ah during its most desperate hour.

The confirmed Sinners currently known include:

  • “The Wise” Hroptatyr
  • “The Visionary” Vedrfolnir
  • “Gold” Rhinedottir
  • “Foul” Surtalogi
  • “Racher of Solnari” Rerir

Furthermore, each Sinner maintains domain affiliation with Genshin Impact’s cosmic Rulers. For instance, Rhinedottir partners with Naberius governing life, Rerir collaborates with Ronova overseeing death, Vedrfolnir works alongside Istaroth controlling time, and Surtalogi associates with Asmoday commanding void. This configuration excludes Hroptatyr, who apparently shares domain alignment with the Primordial entity.

This comprehensive analysis covers current understanding regarding Rerir within Genshin Impact’s expanding narrative.
