Al talked about the changes in the wardrobe from Scaramouche in red to The Wanderer in blue and some of the symbolism shown. The biggest change is from the red of the Kubuki look to the serene blue he now wears.

To the left is the neck of the Raiden Shogun, from Genshin Impact. She has an electro symbol on her neck. On the right is Wanderer. Through black mesh on his neck we can see he also has the same electro symbol on his neck. This image is showcased on the website for Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast.

Ei and The Wanderer share a mark on the back of their necks that are almost the reverse of one another. Ei’s is called a Mitsudomoe – a three-fold Tomoe representing the threefold division of man, earth and sky.
