Kaeya fanart

I'm thinking of doing some fanart of genshin characters you guys would like to see as pirates. So, excluding the pirates we already have, such as beidou and kaeya, tell me who you guys would want to see become a pirate. I recommend some Sumeru characters. pls :D

tried not to give in to the fomo but alas.. been watching my online friends play the game for the past two years and i kinda kept thinking about playing it.. and the urge got worse few days ago so yeahh
i basically wanted to play for the pretty characters and watching their fanarts made me want to draw them too. and then the lores. people making references of the characters made me feel left out.
the game isn't so easy it's time consuming obviously (addicting i mean) but the ui and everything is so simple i love playing it. characters are so pretty i love every one of them so much (kaeya, diluc and xiangling especially look gorgeous)
the amount of catching up i got to do makes me feel overwhelmed but please let me know things i should remember while playing so i don't lag even behind tia

Since Kaeya's birthday is coming up in a few days, I've prepared a giveaway! I will be choosing 3 people at random to win a Welkin! Comment a birthday wish below and/or share a fanart (SFW of course) with us. Winners will be picked and announced on the 30th :)
edit: Sorry for the delay - lost power so the drawing will be delayed until Dec 1 :)
edit 2: welp, the outage messed up my internet, so the announcement will be delayed another day, but we're going ahead and locking the post now :)

Saw a crossover fanart on RWBY and Genshin. Got me thinking what team would most likely be formed based on characters history and interaction. Most semblance are reflection of thier element skills.

1. Bennett Adventure Team: BRMA; Bennett, Razor, Mona, and Amy(Fishel).

To Start the fanart is based on if Bennett was related to ruby and yang. https://br.pinterest.com/pin/712553972299024946/
Slight twist for that picture, Qrow found Bennett after his parents die so Bennett ends up getting adopt in the Long-Rose family. His semblance is similar to Qrow of creating bad luck, but it draws all of it to him.
Razor semblance always him to speak to wolves and create his elemental burst.
Fishel can create illusions based on her imagination, thus includes oz.
Would Mona's future sight be possible as a semblance or would that break the rules of that world. If not possible than her semblance would allow her to turn to water for a short time.

1. Archon Team: REVZ; rukkhadevata, Ei, Venti, and Zhongli.

Note this is based on if this four are normal humans in remnant so they are not as powerful as thier genshin counterpart. Thier semblance is pretty much the same as thier game play.
Nahida still exist in this AU except she is the daughter of Rukkhadevata. Zhongli is a komodo dragon faunos.

1. Knights of Favonious: JDLK: Jean, Diluc, Lisa, Kaeya. Could replace with any of the other Knights, or make a whole new team.
   
2. Liyue Qixing: NKGY: Ningguang, Keqing, Ganyu, and Yelan.
   

Was thinking of including Beidou but probably still be a pirate that would work along Huntersman.
Additional Headcannon: Ningguang, Ganyu and Xiao were all raise by Zhongli and Guizhong.

1. Inazuma: AYIK: Ayaka, Yoimiya, Itto, and Kuki. Probably the weakest justification but couldn't think of 4 people in one group from Inazuma.
   
2. Sumura: TCCD: Tighnari, Cyno, Candace, and Dehya. Mayba replace one with Nilou or Collie.
   
3. Traveler: APLD: Aether, Paimon, Lumine, and Dainslief. Not sure how to translate Paimon into a character that fits into RWBY.
   
4. Joke: Aether, Keqing, Ayaka, and Nilou. If you know, you know.
   

So I used to ship Dulic with Jean and lately I’ve gone down the KaeLuc rabbit hole…. Now that’s the only ship that I will ship Dulic with now…. I know they’re brothers…. Like they’re not related right? Since Kaeya was adopted right? So technically they can have relationship right? Now I need to know if my brain has gotten worse or better… I just kinda liked BL but never got into it. It’s okay to ship them right? Sorry for rabbling… soon I will come out with Kaeluc fanart based on the song called suki da kara/ Because I love you! I will try to make a PV out of it.

Okay so I am a huge kaeya simp. By huge I mean I main him have hopes of getting all his constellations look up fanfics, theories, and fanarts of him all day. So yeah I am a huge simp so of course I am aware of his lore. While simping over him one day I stumbled upon a charecter analysis video and in that video it basically shut down the kaeya is a prince theory and the kaeya hidden eye thing. It shut down the prince theory cause apparently more lore was revealed and the Alberich clan was not the of royal family but they took the royals place and apparently diluc injured kaeyas eye (but kaeya wore an eye patch before the incident so that doesn't make sense) So anyway I didn't agree with everything this video said but it made me come up with some theories of my own and here they are. The first one has the do with the prince theory. Basically I have a theory that kaeya is actual a mix blood between Alberich and the of royal family (or something if this sort) the reason I think this is because of kaeyas lore. In the lore kaeyas dad referred to him as 'khaneriahs last hope'. While watching that charecter analysis video I realized something. How tf is kaeya 'khaneriahs last hope' simply by spying on a nation with a god barely present. That makes no sense, cause I'm sure they have more spies and agents then kaeya so 'khaneriahs last hope' is interesting wording. How can he be the last hope when he doesn't even look like he's reported anything back. I say this because it said kaeya was struggling with who to side with and it troubled him everyday until crepus death. I think that insunates that he hasn't really been in contact with khaneriah at all after his father left him. So why was he referred to as khaneriahs last hope. Plus even if he was a spy what information that is so useful is he going to get from mondstat...the god is barely even active. So my theory is he is the last remainder of the if khaneriah royal family....maybe his mother was one as well but died or something or maybe pierro who I believe is his dad is one but he's going to die soon. I think that kaeyas dad left him in mondstat to protect him from the things he knew was going to happen. Maybe he felt that kaeya was too important and he feared kaeya would get injured if he didn't separate from him. I think he plans on revealing kaeya to everyone as the last royal and he plans to do something with that. Anyway on to the eye theory So it does appear that Diluc may have scared kaeyas eye but the thing is kaeya wore his eye patch before all of that so...yeah. bi have a theory that the royal family has a special power or something. Also I think that kaeya took off his eye patch to prove to diluc that he was telling the truth about being a trader and that's how diluc was able to scar his eye Anyways that's my theory what are your guys thoughts please do share does it sound like shit or does it have some credibility
