Basic Information about Citlali
• Rarity: 5-star • Vision: Cyro • Weapon: Catalyst • Progression Bonus: Elemental Mastery +115.2
Signature Weapon: Starcaller's Watch
Starcaller's Watch
542 / +264.6 Elemental Mastery
Elemental Mastery is increased by 100 / 125 / 150 / 175 / 200 . The equipping character will trigger the Scrutiny effect for 10s when creating a Shield. During this time, the DMG dealt by the active character to opponents within a relatively close range is increased by 24% / 30% / 36% / 42% / 48% . The Scrutiny effect can only be triggered once every 15s.
Normal Attack: Shadow-Stealing Spirit Vessel
• Normal Attack
Calls upon secret arts passed down through the Masters of the Night-Wind from generation to generation, performing up to three strikes that deal Cryo DMG.
• Charged Attack
Enters Aiming Mode, and after Holding, consumes a certain amount of Stamina to call forth a Frost Star that deals Cryo DMG to opponents in its path.
• Plunging Attack
Plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Deals Aoe Cryo DMG upon impact with the ground.
Elemental Skill: Dawnfrost Darkstar
Invoking secret pacts passed down by her tribe over the millennia, Citlali deploys an Opal Shield and calls forth "Obsidian Tzitzimitl: Itzpapa," a creature that is (reputedly) terrifying beyond compare, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Cryo DMG.
The Opal Shield's DMG absorption scales based on Citlali's Elemental Mastery, and absorbs Cryo DMG with 250% efficiency.
After using this skill, Citlali gains 24 Nightsoul points and enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state.
• Nightsoul's Blessing: Citlali
When Itzpapa leaves the field, Citlali exits the Nightsoul's Blessing state.
• Itzpapa
· Itzpapa will follow the character.
· If Citlali has at least 50 Nightsoul points, Itzpapa enters the Opal Fire state and continuously consumes Nightsoul points to whip up a Frostfall Storm that attacks opponents within its AoE, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Cryo DMG.
· When Citlali's Nightsoul points are fully depleted, Itzpapa's Opal Fire state also ends.
Usually, the wills that symbolize different stars cannot coexist, for how can purest black be reflected in purest white?
Be that as it may, Citlali has never harbored a particular preference for colors themselves, and that is just how things played out in the end.
Elemental Burst: Edict of Entwined Splendor
Summons forth "allies" from the starry skies and the vast earth, hurling an icy storm to bombard the area in front that deals Nightsoul-aligned AoE Cryo DMG, restores a fixed amount of Nightsoul points to Citlali, and also summons 1 Spiritvessel Skull near a maximum of 3 opponents within the AoE. Spiritvessel Skulls explode after a period of time, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Cryo DMG and restoring a fixed amount of Nightsoul points to Citlali.
"Ugh, enough of this 'dark star, opal star' stuff! Citlalin, Itzpapa, get 'em!"
Passive Talents
1 Five Days of Frigid Rain
When Citlali is in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, after nearby party members trigger the Frozen or Melt reactions, the Pyro and Hydro RES of opponents affected by that reaction decreases by 20% for 12s. Additionally, Citlali will regain 16 Nightsoul points. Nightsoul points can be restored this way once every 8s.
2 White Butterfly's Star Garments
During the Elemental Skill Dawnfrost Darkstar, Itzpapa's Frostfall Storm DMG is increased by 90% of Citlali's Elemental Mastery. During the Elemental Burst Edict of Entwined Splendor, Ice Storm DMG is increased by 2400% of Citlali's Elemental Mastery.

3 Night Realm's Gift: Smoke, Mirrors, and the Flowing Winds
While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, can use Nightsoul Transmission: Citlali. When the active character is currently high enough in the air, the following will trigger when switching to Citlali: Citlali will leap up high, and will deploy "White Obsidian Tzitzimitl: Citlalin" to float in the air. Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10s by your party.
Holding Aiming Mode will cause Citlali to enter the "Spiritspeaker" state, which will allow her to interact with "Nightspirit Graffiti" and "Nightspirit Sigils," extracting information and power from them. The rules for interacting with these objects follow the same rules as those governing Iktomisaurus interactions.
Additionally, holding the jump button will cause Citlali to consume 75 Stamina and leap. In areas within Natlan where Phlogiston mechanics are present, Citlali will prioritize consuming 5 Phlogiston to leap to a height higher still.
When in the air, Citlali can Hold her Normal Attack to consume Phlogiston or Stamina and enter Aiming Mode and trigger Charged Attacks: When initiating Charged Attacks in mid-air, Citlali will prioritize consuming 20 Phlogiston.
4 Life Talent
When Nightsoul Burst is triggered, restore 20 Phlogiston to the party. This cannot take effect in Domains, Trounce Domains, or the Spiral Abyss.
Constellations
1 Bladed Light of Four Hundred Stars
When she uses the Elemental Skill Dawnfrost Darkstar, Citlali gains the "Opalstar Vestments" effect until her Nightsoul's Blessing state ends. During this time, she will obtain 10 Stellar Blades. When a nearby active character other than Citlali deals DMG, consume 1 Blade to increase the DMG dealt by 200% of Citlali's Elemental Mastery.
After nearby party members trigger Frozen or Melt, Citlali will gain another 3 Stellar Blades. This effect can trigger once every 8s.
Using the Elemental Skill Dawnfrost Darkstar will reset Stellar Blade stacks.
Additionally, when Citlali is using her leap, or is Aiming or using her Charged Attack in mid-air, her Phlogiston consumption is decreased by 45%.
2 Death Defier's Spirit Skull
Citlali gains 125 Elemental Mastery, and other characters shielded by her Opal Shield gain 250 Elemental Mastery.
Additionally, when the Elemental Skill Dawnfrost Darkstar is used, nearby active characters will also be granted an Opal Shield.
Also, the Passive Talent "Five Days of Frigid Rain" has its effects enhanced:
When Citlali is in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, after nearby party members trigger Frozen or Melt, the opponent(s) affected by this reaction will have their Pyro and Hydro RES additionally decreased by 20% for 12s.

4 Heart Devourer's Travail
While the Elemental Skill Dawnfrost Darkstar is active, when Itzpapa's Frostfall Storm hits opponents, an additional Obsidian Spiritvessel Skull is summoned. When a Spiritvessel Skull summoned this way explodes, it deals 1200% of Citlali's Elemental Mastery as Nightsoul-aligned Cryo DMG and restores 16 Nightsoul points to Citlali. This effect can trigger once every 8s. This DMG is not considered Elemental Burst DMG.
