WELCOME TO THE TRIBE
BIO
HilichurlsΒ are a goblin-like family ofΒ monstersΒ inΒ Genshin Impact, and are one of the first enemy family types the player will encounter early in the game.
Regardless of what stage of growth they are currently at, all Hilichurls are bare-chested and bare-footed, and have a large mane covering most of their head. They appear to have two elongated ears sticking out of their mane. The only clothing they wear is a loincloth, while their arms and legs are loosely wrapped in bandages. Every Hilichurl wears a mask, as to prevent themselves from seeing their own hideous faces in reflections. While elementally-affiliated Hilichurls, such as Samachurls, Hilichurl Rogues and Lawachurls take on the color of their element, their skin is naturally of a grayish-black hue.
Elementally affiliated hilichurls, such asΒ SamachurlsΒ andΒ Lawachurls, also take on the element's appropriate color for both their skin and masks. Despite their general hostility towards outsiders or humans and a less than optimal lifestyle, Hilichurls are also intelligent for their standards, as a few use tools andΒ Slimes, scavenge and even engage in agriculture, albeit limited to raising livestock due to the race's general dislike of vegetables. They have a fairly impressive, albeit archaic architectural style, the construction or purpose of them unknown.
As a hilichurl grows and survives, they eventually turn intoΒ Mitachurls, who are larger and bulkier. Mitachurls that continue to grow and survive eventually accumulate an excess of the elemental energy in their area, turning them intoΒ Lawachurls. It is not known how long it takes for this growth to occur.
Some hilichurls may instead go rogue; unlike other hilichurls, these rogues are not part of a tribe, instead wandering around Teyvat for an unknown reason. However, they may occasionally help other hilichurl tribes for a short time before leaving. These hilichurls are larger, being of a similar height to a mitachurl, and are also said to be intelligent for hilichurl standards.
MEMBERS OF THE TRIBE
Hilichurl
These are the smaller and the lowest ranking Hilichurls of the tribe. They are present in large number compared to the Elite Hilichurls. These are the ones that encounter and bring in women for the tribe. They are fairly strong against normal citizens, but a trained military or a vision holder may prove fatal to them
Hilichurl Berserker
Hilichurl BerserkersΒ areΒ Common EnemiesΒ that are part of theΒ HilichurlsΒ family. These hilichurls wield flaming clubs and charge with reckless abandon to chase intruding adventurers off. Most wildfires in the grasslands or forests are not actually caused by aΒ certain special Knight, but due to the actions of these hilichurls.
Axe Mitachurl
Axe MitachurlsΒ areΒ Elite EnemiesΒ that are part of theΒ MitachurlsΒ enemy group and theΒ HilichurlsΒ Tribe. They are significantly bigger and stronger compared to the Hilichurls. Usually a group of Hilichurls have atleast one or 2 Mitachurl as their leader in the group. Muscular hilichurls who wield large, two-handled axes.
Shieldwall Mitachurl
Wooden Shieldwall MitachurlsΒ areΒ Elite EnemiesΒ that are part of theΒ MitachurlsΒ enemy group and theΒ Hilichurls tribe. A muscular hilichurl who has been forged in countless fights. With their powerful muscles, glossy fur, and sturdy, reliable silhouettes, they help the hilichurls withstand the pitiless assaults of adventurers, and they hold a rather exalted rank amongst the tribes.
Hilichurl Rogue
Hilichurl wanderers who do not belong to any hilichurl tribe. It almost seems as if they are searching for the fated genesis of their kind, seeking to uncover some bygone splendor that once belonged to their people. If these monsters capable of only crude language and bereft of missing history could record their own epics and legends, the hilichurl wanderers would be the heroes in said tales. These are usually not temporary members of the tribe but they do help out in the tribe from time to time.
Frostarm Lawachurl
A mysterious "lord" of hilichurls that stalks the snow and fog. This huge hilichurl is referred to as a "lawa" by its brethren. Its body, honed to the very limit, almost seems to blend into its Cryo-filled environment, and its stoic nobility is like that of the frozen northland rivers. He is one of the Tribe heads.
Thunderhelm Lawachurl
Its giant body is saturated with Electro energy, while the Elemental Energy seeps through the cracks in its body in the form of Electro Crystal growths. Second Head of the Tribe.
Stonehide Lawachurl
The abundant Geo energies in the environment have become part of their flesh, blood, and skin, which look as if they were chiseled out of mountain rock. Third head of the tribe.
Unusual Hilichurl
Two Unusual Hilichurls spawn every 12 hours, in 14 different possible locations, 6 inΒ MondstadtΒ and 8 inΒ Liyue, outside of special areas such asΒ Dragonspine,Β The Chasm, andΒ Chenyu Vale. Unlike most enemies, the Unusual Hilichurl is passive and will not react to players unless attacked.
