Introduction Scaramouche
Scaramouche is one of the Fatui Harbingers, a group of powerful individuals who serve the Tsaritsa, ruler of Snezhnaya. Scaramouche is also known by his code name, “The Balladeer.”
Scaramouche was created by Raiden Ei as a test subject for an indestructible puppet bearing a Gnosis. After completing his creation, Ei left Scaramouche in a slumbering state, free from her control. When he eventually awakened, Scaramouche was convinced that Ei had deemed him a failure and abandoned him, leading to his embitterment towards both gods and humanity.
