A Genshin Impact fan has posted an interesting image that points out many similarities between Bennett and a character from Natlan who was featured in one of the game’s earliest story teasers. Natlan is one of the seven major regions in the world of Teyvat, and it’s also known as the home of the Pyro Archon Murata.

At the moment, there is not a lot of information about Natlan, even though it’s expected to be the next major region to arrive in Genshin Impact once the Fontaine arc wraps up. When it comes to Natlan’s location, it’s expected to be placed west of the Sumeru deserts and below the recently introduced Hydro nation.

A popular Genshin Impact Twitter account named Teyvat Tabloid has posted an interesting image that might hint at Bennett’s origin. The image created by a Genshin Impact fan who goes by the name Lâm O-o Sung, reveals many notable similarities between the famous Pyro user Bennett and one of the Pyro characters who was revealed back in the “Teyvat Chapter Storyline Preview: Travail” video. The image points to three key similarities, which include the same hair and eye colors, as well as the popular nose patch. Even though the designs of Genshin Impact‘s characters are diverse, having this eye and hair color combination is fairly rare. Many fans in the comment section claim that they cannot believe how this similarity went unnoticed for such a long time.

Is Bennett Originally from Natlan?

Another detail lending credibility to the theory that Bennett has ties to Natlan is that he wears a Pyro Vision. The official storyline has confirmed that Bennett is an orphan discovered by the Adventurer’s Guild in the Mare Jivari temple, which is rumored to be located near Natlan. Some fans have pointed out that this Pyro user could be the one to introduce the Traveler to the Pyro nation after Fontaine’s main story line ends.

Despite being known for his extraordinary bad luck, Bennett is one of the bravest adventurers in all of Teyvat which often leads him in various kinds of trouble. However, when it comes to his power on the battlefield, he is widely regarded as the best four-star character in Genshin Impact.

Even though he has a lower rarity, Bennett often finds himself at the top of the Spiral Abyss usage charts. His Elemental Burst, Fantastic Voyage, creates a large AoE effect that provides tons of healing as well as a powerful damage buff.
