"Devil" ever bathed in purifying flames: Galbrena

Element：Fusion | Weapon：Pistols

Galberna has striking hairs silver-white gradient undercut with blue highlights, rivaling Zani in sheer coolness. Her design embodies a classic gunslinger aesthetic—black thigh-high stockings paired with bullet bandoliers strapped across her legs—exuding edgy, combat-ready vibes. Yet, her icy demeanor starkly contrasts her title "Devil" ever bathed in purifying flames, hinting at a complex backstory beneath the surface.

According to reliable sources, Galberna is a Fusion-attribute character wielding Pistols. While it remains unconfirmed whether she will be a 5-star character, current speculation suggests she may become the new Fusion main DPS (carry), especially since Lupa's role leans more toward sub-DPS.

Additionally, LDShop predicts that Galberna is likely to debut in the first banner of Version 2.7. This speculation stems from Qiuyuan's artwork style being distinctly incompatible with the new region, Septimont's aesthetic, coupled with the fact that Galberna's character art background features a quarter-circle motif similar to that of Augusta and Youno in Version 2.6.

 

The lone wayfaring swordsman: Qiuyuan

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐｜Element: Havoc｜Weapon：Sword

The reveal of Qiuyuan's character artwork has caused a sensation! As the new male character in Wuthering Waves after several versions, this classic-style handsome swordsman has instantly become a fan favorite. His overall design exudes a strong wuxia (martial arts hero) aesthetic. Interestingly, the artwork shows Qiuyuan carrying a bamboo camera? This modern element might hint at future storylines involving cross-dimensional connections to Chisa's narrative.

Leaks indicate that Qiuyuan is an Havoc-attribute character wielding a Sword, perfectly matching his "The lone wayfaring swordsman" designation - any other weapon would clash with his traditional Chinese aesthetic. Speculation suggests he may serve as either a main DPS or sub-DPS.

LDShop also predicts Qiuyuan might serve dual narrative purposes: as the final character in the Septimont‘s storyline and the first character in a new story arc. His design, like Chisa's, doesn't quite match the Septimont regional aesthetic. With rumors suggesting Version 2.7 will introduce a male character, Qiuyuan seems all but confirmed for this release.
