Tales of Teyvat, a Genshin Lore Podcast

Episode 111: The Daydream Club

SEASON SIX

Our team provides travelers with visual and video aids every episode to help them better understand comparisons, learn more about topics, and follow what we’re discussing. While we strive to include links to official Genshin Impact resources, some may also be to third-party channels.

Below are some resources surrounding this episode about The Daydream Club that may be helpful to understand the talking points and lore better:

Fontaine's island of Petrichor. It looks like an old town with clay built homes and a dirt part lined by statues that leads to the small town.

The home base for The Daydream Club is over on Petrichor, an island off the mainland of Fontaine. This Italian-esque villa is also the entryway to Remuria and the Sea of Bygone Eras.

The castle in the Sea of Bygone Eras. It is tall with a triangular main build with gold glowing from it and a red carpet leading up to the front door.

If you’d like to know more about Remuria and the stone golems that stand guard over Remus’ Phobos, check out our dedicated Remuria episode from last season (S5 E91).

Lady Grobel, a cat and President of the Daydream Club. She is a black and white cat with a white belly and front legs and more white up into her face. Black covers her back and eyes and ears.

Some people, ahem…Bee, may tell you that Lady Grobel is just a cat. But would a mere cat be the President and Director of The Daydream Club? I think not.

Daydream Club, filmmaker and big hat wearer, Xavier. He has blonde side bangs that come out of a black bowl hat. He stands with his arms crossed wearing a red button up and black vest with white bowtie.

The most well-known member of The Daydream Club is Xavier. We’ve met him before, and we’re sure we’ll meet him again. He is the inventor of the film kamera and the most well-known filmmaker in Teyvat. Oh, and he might be a segment of Dottore if Bee’s theory is right.

Daydream Club and inventor of the Numbering Machine Garcia. He has longer blonde hair and glasses and wears a red button up, black vest and white bowtie.  Superimposed on top of him are his friends Lutong and Kaia. Lutong (left) has dark purple hair that is cut short and wears a blue short sleeve shirt with a brown vest open on top of it. He wears dark blue fingerless gloves, white pants and a large chunky belt. Kaia (right) had red/brown hair that is up in a bun with curly pieces falling loose. She has a red long halter dress on and wears a yellow bell sleeved sweater on top of it.

Garcia is the inventor of the Numbering Machine and needs a whole lot of help over in Sumeru. On the plus side, you get to hang out with his hottie friend Lutong and Kaia. Not to be confused with the other Kaeya.

Daydream Club and Evermotion Mechanical Painting inventor Felix Yogue. Felix has very short strawberry blonde hair, rectangular glasses and wears a red button down, black vest and white bowtie.

Our next daydreamer is Felix Yogue. He is the inventor of the Evermotion Mechanical Painting. You may remember this from a couple of past events. Did you enjoy it as much as Tif did?

Daydream Club brothers Mecantre and Babisse. Mecantre (left) has short brown hair that seems to be gelled back. He wears rectangular glasses, a black button up and a red coat that buttons up to right under his chest. His brother Babisse (right) wears the same outfit but has brown hair tied back with a side swoop of bangs and more rounded rectangular glasses.

The brothers Mecantre & Babisse are inventors working on a super-sized cannon. Other than having difficult names for the ToTs to pronounce, they’re not the most prolific duo in the group.

Este of the Daydream Club and ancestor of Remuria. He has medium brown hair with a swooping side bang. He wears white glasses, a dark blue turtle neck with a lighter blue scarf and a green vest that is buttoned up half way.

Este, the only non-red wearing dreamer, on the other hand, is pretty well known to us. He is a descendant of the Remuria Golem Este, aka ‘Este the Quick-Witted’, and the caretaker of Osse after the Remuria quest.

Daydream Club and phlogiton researcher Grispan. He has short and messy blonde hair, a matching blonde mustache and circular glasses. He wears a red button up, black vest and white bowtie.

Grispan is currently researching phlogiston and can be found with Lady Grobel at the Stadium of the Sacred Flame during a Natlan daily commission. He’s super bummed about missing out on all the hypnosis happening on Petrichor.

The Mikage Furnace from Inazuma. It is shown from above and is a circular purple item that is large and floating in hole in a mountain. Here it emits a golden light that shoots through it and glows around it.

Two other episodes we mentioned during our chat are Orobashi (S4 E73) and Scaramouche (S1 E19). Check out those episodes for more on the Mikage Furnace and our other encounter with Xavier.

Dottore as seen at the end of the Winter Night's Lazzo interlude chapter. He is shown in a warm coloring smiling under his long mask.

We hear a little bit about Dottore’s segments during the chapter interlude, A Winter Night’s Lazzo.

Zozimos from Bottleland and perhaps a daydreamer. He has blue long hair that is slightly slicked back and has a side bang. He has a blue mustache and wears the traditional daydream club outfit of red button up, black vest and white bowtie.

Feens tells us about Zozimos, a fella we met during the summer Bottleland event. That outfit sure is familiar.

Genshin Impact's Paimon and a movie kamera. In front of her on the table is a blank postcard and a brown Kamera her hands. Her eyes are closed and she is laughing. In front of her on the table is a blank postcard and a brown Kamera.

Here are some helpful links if you’re unfamiliar with the pop culture references we mentioned during the episode. Tif talked about the creepy signature of Xavier Roberts on her Cabbage Patch Kid. Feens mentioned Perry the Platypus‘ hat disguise, and she got us singing High School Musical 2 and P!nk.
