Profile[]

So this Nathan fellow disguised himself as a fellow "freedom fighter," armed with slogans that were easy to identify with... and with an ice-cold heart, with which he pushed our most radical groups onto a path from which there was no returning...

—Shizuru, Clean House

Nathan was an agent of the Fatui sent by the First Lord Harbinger^[1] to infiltrate the Watatsumi Army to dash their hopes for a quick victory, and thus drag out the war between them and the Shogunate.^[2] Claiming that his Mondstadt heritage instilled him with the ideal of freedom, and thus did not agree with the Shogunate's oppressive regime, he ingratiated himself with certain Orobashi fanatics in the Resistance.

Seeing that these fanatics sought to restore the "glory" of their slain god, Nathan devised a way to break the Raiden Shogun's wards on Yashiori Island and convinced them that this would restore Orobashi's "dignity." This plan was neither devised nor approved by the Resistance leader, Sangonomiya Kokomi, and those in on the plan did not want her to be implicated in their scheme in the event that they were caught.^[3] While they succeeded in breaking the wards, this instead unleashed the Tatarigami, causing people on the island to fall ill or go mad. The war came to a stalemate as the effects of Tatarigami proved to be dangerous to both sides of the war.

After discovering the Fatui's involvement with the Resistance, the Traveler raids a Fatui Delusion factory and can find some papers revealing Nathan's culpability. While the Traveler is unconscious from Scaramouche's trap, the Resistance raided the factory and came upon the same documents. Nathan attempted to flee Inazuma, but was captured and is now in prison, awaiting trial.^[1]

Appearance[]

Nathan wears the Watatsumi Army's standard uniform, modeled from the ashigaru (Japanese: 足軽) of feudal Japan. His clothing consists of a light red-white gradient shitagi with a red-violet colored left sleeve, gray kobakama, and waraji sandals without the socks. Although not visible, the Sangonomiya Clan's crest is imprinted on the back of the shitagi, below the neck. Additional features on the uniform's design such as breastplates and helmets are not present, compared to Shogun's Army uniforms, but were still equipped with sode (shoulder armor), han-kote (half-armored sleeves), haidate (thigh guards), and sune-ate (greaves) armor, whose colors were red and black with gold accents. The right shoulder guard has the Sangonomiya Clan's crest imprinted on it. Nathan is equipped with a juumonji yari, whose shaft is colored with a red-white gradient and has the Sangonomiya Clan's crest under the spearhead.
