Iansan, a familiar NPC, describes Varesa with affection:
"Varesa, my most peculiar student… No one matches her easygoing, carefree nature. No matter where she travels, she’s like a child on an adventure—always searching for delicious treats or a cozy spot to rest... But beware! If you ever fight Abyss monsters with her, the moment she gets into the zone, she turns into an unstoppable force!"
Alongside Varesa, another character is making the leap from NPC to playable hero in update 5.5: Iansan. She will be a 4-star Electro user, wielding a Polearm. Varesa shares her admiration for Iansan:

"Iansan is Natlan’s top trainer and the person I admire the most! People say I’m talented, but without her training, that talent would have gone to waste. Don’t worry if you’re not used to working out—Coach Iansan knows how to train anyone! Oh, by the way, wanna check out this flyer? She’s recruiting new students!"
These new additions promise to bring fresh dynamics and strategies to the gameplay of Genshin Impact, keeping the community engaged and eager for the next update.
