Background / History

A childhood fairy tale about birds learning to fly inspired Amber to become an Outrider and Mondstadt’s flying champion. Its lesson—that courage matters more than strong winds—remains her personal guide to flight. She accidentally gives this book to Lumine instead of the official Flight Guide, explaining that it was the book that truly taught her to fly 37.

Appearance

• Red outfit, including long red stockings and tall white boots 6.
• Rabbit-ear-like headband ribbons, which bounce as she runs 6 37.
• Red Vision worn at her waist, which she shows the travelers while explaining elemental power 7.
• Shorter than Gabrielina, whose height and unusual appearance initially unsettle her 6.

Personality

Amber balances vigilance with practical kindness. She questions unfamiliar travelers and initially escorts Gabrielina partly to observe her, but offers to help Lumine post missing-person notices once she learns about her missing brother. She also stops Gabrielina from attacking the bridge pigeons and reassures the gate guards that the newcomers are guests 6 7.

Her faith in the Anemo Archon does not replace her sense of responsibility. Although she misses Barbatos, she insists that the Knights must handle Mondstadt’s crisis rather than depend on a powerful visiting stranger 8.

Flight brings out her enthusiastic, competitive, and rule-bending side. She envies Gabrielina’s natural wings, eagerly discusses Slime-assisted takeoffs, and admits that her own gliding license has repeatedly been revoked. Her daring is nevertheless supported by observation: during the Strange Bird pursuit, she identifies the available wind current before crossing a dangerous chasm 9 37 41.

Abilities & Skills

Pyro Archery

• Fires flaming arrows with enough precision to strike a Hilichurl between the eyes 6.
• Eliminates elevated crossbowmen while Lumine fights enemies below 6.
• Provides covering fire during aerial combat and ignites explosive barrels to trigger chain explosions 40.
• Uses rapid flaming shots against Treasure Hoarders during the pursuit through the ruins 40.

Gliding

• Demonstrates Wind Glider use and coaches Lumine through her first flight 8 9.
• Supervises a three-part gliding-license examination, beginning with a course of glowing rings at Windrise 37.
• Crosses the broken bridge in Strange Bird’s hideout by riding a hidden updraft 40.
• Has retaken her license examination fifteen times, passing every retest on the first attempt 41.
• Uses a Wind Glider rather than natural wings; ordinary gliding leaves her tired, unlike Gabrielina’s sustained flight 9.

Scouting and Pursuit

• Moves quietly into elevated firing positions, including climbing a tree without making a sound 6.
• Questions witnesses and follows elemental residue to reconstruct Strange Bird’s escape route 39.
• Recognizes the Treasure Hoarder ambush as a diversion intended to delay pursuit until the elemental trail disappears 39.
• Adapts Lumine’s final gliding test into an aerial assault when monsters obstruct the route through the ruins 40.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Bow — Her preferred weapon; she declines Gabrielina’s offered sword because she is an archer 6 10.
• Pyro Vision — The red gemstone at her waist enables elemental use and serves as her example when explaining Visions to the travelers 7.
• Wind Glider — Her demonstrated glider has blue-patterned wings. She also gives Lumine a glider as thanks for helping clear the Hilichurl camp 8.
• Baron Bunnies — Specially made explosive dolls that she supplies to Lumine for attacks from the air 40.
• Childhood fairy-tale book — Mistakenly distributed as the Flight Guide; contains the lesson that inspired her flying career 37.

Relationships

• Lumine — Traveling ally and gliding student. Amber offers help finding her brother, teaches her to glide, and fights beside her during Strange Bird’s capture 6 8 37 40.
• Gabrielina — Initially a suspicious stranger, later a trusted ally. Amber admires her natural flight, relies on her to hold off pursuing bandits, and becomes a prospective gliding rival after Lumine proposes a competition 6 9 39 41.
• Paimon — Welcomes her alongside the travelers and promises sticky honey roast when the Wind Glider gift proves unsuitable for her 8.
• Jean — Acting Grand Master and superior. Jean permits Amber’s promised dinner outing and later gives her a morning off 12 37.
• Kaeya — Fellow knight and cavalry captain. Amber introduces him to Lumine, Gabrielina, and Paimon after Stormterror’s attack 10.
• Barbatos — The absent Archon she misses, while remaining determined that the Knights should act without waiting for his return 8.
• Strange Bird — Flying thief she pursues through Springvale and an ancient ruin; she helps secure his capture and imprison the defeated Treasure Hoarders 38 39 40 41.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Arrival in Mondstadt

Amber intercepts Lumine, Paimon, and Gabrielina near the Whispering Woods. After questioning them, she offers an escort and recruits their assistance against a six-Hilichurl camp. She then guides them into Mondstadt and explains how Stormterror’s attacks have disrupted trade and exhausted the Knights 6 7.

At the Anemo God Plaza, Gabrielina’s resemblance to Barbatos briefly raises Amber’s hopes. After accepting that Gabrielina is not the Archon, she thanks the group with a Wind Glider and a dinner invitation 8.

Stormterror Crisis

When Stormterror attacks during the gliding lesson’s aftermath, Amber tries to prevent Lumine from following Gabrielina into a tornado. After the travelers return, she immediately checks their safety and introduces them to Kaeya 9 10.

Amber later leaves Mondstadt with Lumine and Paimon for the temple investigation. She also supplies information about Stormterror’s former place among the Four Winds, which Lumine recounts to Lisa 19 22.

Gliding Examination and Strange Bird Pursuit

Amber’s examination is interrupted when Otto mistakes Lumine for Strange Bird’s accomplice. She confirms that Lumine is taking the test, then takes up the pursuit after learning that the thief has stolen a church artifact 37 38.

The chase leads through a caravan attack, a Treasure Hoarder diversion, and monster-filled ruins. Amber turns the aerial combat into Lumine’s final test, crosses a chasm on an updraft, and continues fighting until Gabrielina blocks Strange Bird’s escape with black spears 39 40.

Afterward, Amber finishes locking up the defeated Treasure Hoarders. Lumine receives her gliding license, and the group arranges a celebratory dinner at Good Hunter 41.
