Durin is an overarching antagonist in Genshin Impact and the main antagonist of Interlude Chapter IV: Paralogism.
He was a shadow dragon created by the alchemist Rhinedottir who had attacked Mondstadt during the Cataclysm. His actions would prompt Barbatos and Dvalin to come to the nation's aid to fight the dragon.
He was eventually killed by Dvalin and his corpse would fall over the mountain Vindagnyr, earning it the name, Dragonspine. Even after his death, his poisonous blood would continue to infect the mountain.
Biography[]
Durin was a dragon created by the Khaenri'an alchemist, Rhinedottir, also known as Gold. He was considered to be one of the miraculous creations of the alchemist. At some point, he ate Primordial Albedo after Gold had deemed him a failure.
During the cataclysm against Khaenri'ah, Durin went to Mondstadt and began to attack and destroy the nation. Due to the absence of the Knights of Favonius, who had been sent to Khaenri'ah, the nation was left undefended. Hearing the cries and prayers of his people, Barbatos awoke from his slumber and summoned Dvalin to fight Durin.
Barbatos and Dvalin fought a brutal battle against Durin. Dvalin eventually killed Durin by piercing through his neck with his fangs, accidentally ingesting some of Durin's poisonous blood in the process. Durin's remains were left in Vindagnyr, which would lead it to earn the name "Dragonspine". His poisonous blood continues to infect the mountain to this day.

Appearance[]
Durin was a gigantic black dragon with a monstrous and deformed form. He had red glowing eyes and wings covered in veins. Most of his body appeared in a decaying state with parts of his skeleton being almost completely exposed.
Personality[]
From the exterior, Durin seems like a cold-blooded and murderous dragon seeking nothing but destruction. However, this murderous attitude was the consequence of the brainwashing influenced by Gold.
In truth, Durin was a gentle soul who dreamed of befriending Dvalin and Barbatos, and was completely unaware of the damage he was causing to the people of Mondstadt. He didn't hold any kind of resentment towards Dvalin even after being killed by him, but rather he only wished that they could have met under better circumstances.
Trivia[]
- Durin's skull faces towards the west-northwest, where Celestia floats above.
- Durin is likely named after Durinn
