Genshin Impact Dehya
In Genshin Impact, Dehya is the Avidya Forest Watcher, and according to the game’s lore, he is the Dawson Rainforest’s Lead Ranger. He takes great satisfaction in keeping the forest lush and ensuring everyone’s safety while traveling through it. Dehya may very well be a real-life fennec fox, an invasive species of fox found in the deserts of North Africa, and is a Dendro user.
It was claimed by the leaker that players will get to see Dehya in the future 3.5 update, and it seems like they were on point. The official Genshin Impact Dehya artwork was shared by the devs on January 16 which shows her with brown and black hair as revealed by the model leaks.
A song sung by the members of “Blazing Beasts” around the campfire about Dehya says, “Sing a song, sing along, take your sitar, let’s sing all day long. Sing my sword, sing my bow, sing my tattered ban-dan-oh. Fear no one, fear no lad, only fear if Dehya is mad. We love Dehya, she’s beautiful and strong. Oh, our precious Dehya, we’ll never do you wrong.”
The in-game data on Dehya’s introduction reads: “Hello! My name’s Dehya. I’m the merc you hired. So what you got for me? A commission? A fight? Armed escort? Whatever it is – you know where to find me.”
“The Eremites,” a loosely-organized mercenary organization, is Sumeru’s most powerful armed force. They consist of many mercenaries and bands of warriors-for-hire who carry out assignments independently.
One such brigade is the “Blazing Beasts,” whose most renowned member is Dehya, also known as the “Flame-Mane.”
A highly regarded warrior among the mercenary circles, Dehya is brave without being impulsive, and strong without being arrogant. Life in the harsh desert environment has allowed Dehya to accumulate much combat wisdom through various battles, and she is by no means your typical insolent and ignorant martial artist.
As long as the pay is good and the commission reasonable, Dehya is more than willing to take up her sword to defend those who hire her.
However, there is one thing these employers should be aware of. That is, the agreement they establish with Dehya is only temporary and purely transactional. The reins to tame this lioness is never, and will never be in their hands.
Although mercenaries sell their strength to make a living, their dignity and lives belong only to themselves.
The desert lioness is no one’s slave, and her sword only follows her heart.
Previously, Dehya’s model of all four different profiles was leaked, and Dehya looked as charming as possible. Gamers can see Dehya in the artwork wearing a particular clothing style and clearly favoring a variety of accessories. Her design aesthetic is given a special touch by the belt around her waist, and other small elements. Dehya stands out from the rest because of her Sumeru-based character design, which incorporates many colors of black.

Genshin Impact Dehya Banner Release Date
As the character of Dehya has been formally unveiled, and HoYoverse has already confirmed who will appear in the 3.5 update, it is quite certain that the official Dehya banner release date will be March 1st, 2023.
If leaks are to be considered, the Genshin Impact Dehya banner will have Bennett, Collei, and Barbara as the 4-star characters.
The duo which together mark the first phase of Genshin Impact banners for phase 1 of 3.5, will also include a Cyno banner rerun. Additionally, it was confirmed that Dehya will join the standard “Wanderlust Invocation” banner following the version 3.5 upgrade during the Genshin Impact 3.5 preview program.
This implies that after Genshin Impact 3.5 is released, you will still be able to obtain the Pyro user from the usual wish pool if you want to preserve your wishes for later.

Genshin Impact Dehya Voice Actor
The 3.5 Livestream also revealed a tonne of info on the Sumeru character voice actors. And the official Genshin Impact Dehya voice actors are:
- English VA – Amber May
- Japanese VA – FUKUHARA Ayaka
Dehya’s Japanese voice actor has a wealth of experience portraying characters in the video game industry through performances in titles like Sakura Wars, Nier Replication, and Granblue Fantasy. If you are familiar with Japanese animation, you might recognize her from the anime shows Captain Tsubasa and Extreme Hearts, where she played Taro Misaki and Yukino Tachibana, respectively.
Dehya’s English voice actor in Genshin Impact is Amber May, who has previously performed Xiza and Camille as well as other characters in the game. May has appeared in a number of films and TV episodes in addition to Genshin Impact, such as Barbie Big City, Big Dream, and Joe in Lupin the Third: Part VI.
About Genshin Impact Dehya
The official page revealed the following about Genshin Impact Dehya.
Genshin Impact Dehya: The Eremites
‘The Eremites’ is just a title — any mercenary in Sumeru can call themselves a member. Sadly, you get some mercs throwing the term around to take advantage of outlanders who don’t know any better… Hmph. We’ve got those jerks to thank for the increasingly abysmal reputation we have these days.”
Genshin Impact Dehya’s Hobbies
“I looove my make-up box. Sometimes I take it out and re-organize it when I have the time. I keep all my powders and brushes in here – paid top Mora for all of it. Just look at this texture! Isn’t it just perfectly smooth? And even if you sweat or get caught in the rain, it doesn’t run. Hehehe, you get what you pay for.”
Genshin Impact Dehya’s Least Favorite Food
Dehya who likes Candied Ajilenakh Nuts, really dislikes food that is bitter.
“Anything bitter. Nope. Keep it away from me. Can’t stand it.” “Ah, sun’s out, guns out, hehe… Just sucks that I got so much work to do.”
Genshin Impact Dehya’s Behaviour
I’ve lived around Eremites my whole life. As a little girl, I had a wooden sword for a toy. Everyone I knew growing up was either a merc or on their way to becoming one, and even the bowls we ate our meals from were carved by mercenary blades… After an upbringing like that, it’d be more surprising if I didn’t become a merc when I grew up, right?

Genshin Impact Dehya Gameplay
There’s already a lot of beta Dehya gameplay footage floating around the internet and adding this, now miHoYo has also shared some in-game videos of Dehya in action.
Genshin Impact Dehya abilities
When Genshin 3.4 update was dropped, the leakers were able to dig up the game files and details about Dehya’s in-game role and skills were shared. However, with the Genshin Impact 3.5 beta, the developers have made several changes to Dehya’s kit and we have detailed all her abilities below.
Genshin Impact Dehya Normal attack – Khanda Barrier-Buster
- Normal Attack – Performs up to 4 consecutive strikes using her Claymore and her martial arts.
- Charged Attack – Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to perform continuous slashes. At the end of the sequence, performs a more powerful slash.
- Plunging Attack – Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Genshin Impact Dehya Elemental Skill – Molten Inferno
Dehya’s Elemental Skill is the art of Dehya’s own invention that changes its method of use depending on the combat situation.
Indomitable Flame – This skill will be unleashed should there be no Fiery Sanctum created by Dehya herself present at the time. Deals AoE Pyro DMG, and creates a field known as Fiery Sanctum.
Ranging Flame
This skill will be unleashed should a Fiery Sanctum field created by Dehya herself already exist. Dehya will perform a leaping attack, dealing AoE Pyro DMG before recreating a Fiery Sanctum field at her new position. A Fiery Sanctum field created this way will inherit the original duration of the previous field. Only 1 Ranging Flame can be used throughout a single Fiery Sanctum field’s duration.
Fiery Sanctum
When an opponent within a Fiery Sanctum field takes DMG, the field will unleash a coordinated attack, dealing AoE Pyro DMG to them based on Dehya’s ATK and Max DMG. This effect can be triggered once every 2.5s. Active characters within this field have their resistance to interruption increased, and when such characters take DMG, a portion of that damage will be mitigated and flow into Redmane’s Blood.
Dehya will then take this DMG over 10s. When the mitigated DMG stored by Redmane’s Blood reaches or goes over a certain percentage of Dehya’s Max HP, she will stop mitigating DMG in this way. Only 1 Fiery Sanctum created by Dehya herself can exist at the same time.
Walk this fiery ordeal with me, purging all impurity, just as a beast of flame must descend ablaze.
Genshin Impact Dehya Elemental Burst – Lionine Bite
Dehya’s elemental burst unleashes her burning anger and casts her blade aside like an inconvenience, and Dehya enters the Blazing Lioness state and gains resistance to interruption. In this state, Dehya will automatically and continuously unleash the Flame-Mane’s Fists, dealing Pyro DMG based on her ATK and Max DMG, and when its duration ends, she will unleash an Incineration Drive, dealing AoE Pyro DMG based on her ATK and Max DMG.
If a Fiery Sanctum field created by Dehya’s own Elemental Skill, Molten Inferno, exists when this ability is unleashed, Dehya will retrieve it, and then create another field once Blazing Lioness’ duration expires. This field will then take on the retrieved field’s duration at the moment of its retrieval.
Roaring Barrage
Unleashing Roaring Barrage within 0.4 after each Flame-Mane’s Fist strike will increase the speed of the next Flame-Mane’s Fist strike will be triggered.
Even the flowing flames must obey her rage and at her command become her fangs and claws.
