Genshin Impact Lauma’s Leaked Abilities and Kit Overview
Genshin Impact has revealed a new character named Lauma, who appears briefly in the latest Nod-Krai teaser titled Through the Silent Frostbound Night. What makes this reveal extraordinary is her unique transformation ability that caught every player’s attention.
Furthermore, she has a Dendro vision in this teaser. Lauma also likely has a special traversal skill, as she transformed into a Centaur-like creature in the teaser. This groundbreaking mechanic suggests HoYoverse is introducing entirely new gameplay possibilities.

Revolutionary Transformation Mechanics
The most exciting aspect of Lauma’s leaked kit is her transformation ability. The video suggests one of her abilities might allow her to transform into a deer to run through environments. This mechanic could potentially function as either:
Elemental Skill Integration: Her ability to transform might be part of her kit, either in her Elemental Skill or Elemental Burst. This would make combat more dynamic and strategic.
Alternative Sprint Mechanism: Lauma’s transformation might also be an Alternate Sprint for the character. So far, Mona and Kamisato Ayaka are the only playable characters that have Alternate Sprints in the game. Adding a third character with unique traversal would expand exploration possibilities significantly.
Lore and Design Inspiration
Lauma (Latvian: Lauma; Lithuanian: Laumė) refers to fairy-like woodland spirits and guardian spirit of orphans in Baltic mythology. This mythological foundation explains her nature-based abilities and protective role within the Frostmoon Scions.
Her design reflects this inspiration with an outfit with shades of blue and has horns on her head, perfectly capturing the mystical woodland spirit aesthetic.
Potential Dendro-Cryo Synergies
Early speculation suggests Lauma might introduce new elemental reactions. However, it can be assumed that she will use a new reaction that has previously appeared in Imaginarium Theater. The effect was combination of Dendro and Cryo: If the enemy has Frost and Creeping Spikes, Ice Spike is activated, dealing damage over time.
This potential Dendro-Cryo synergy could revolutionize team compositions, especially for players exploring our Dendro team building guides and elemental reaction strategies.
Release Timeline and Expectations
Since she has a vision, fans are expecting her to be released as a playable character sometime during the Nod-Krai updates. With Genshin Impact 6.0 on the horizon, Lauma represents the new generation of characters designed for next-gen exploration and combat mechanics.

FAQs
Q: Will Lauma’s transformation ability work in combat or just for exploration?
A: While official details aren’t confirmed, the leaked information suggests her transformation could serve multiple purposes. Based on the teaser footage, it appears to function as a traversal mechanic similar to Mona’s sprint, but given the combat-focused nature of Elemental Skills and Bursts, there’s potential for battle applications as well. HoYoverse typically designs character abilities to serve both exploration and combat functions.
Q: Is Lauma definitely a Dendro character, and will she synergize well with existing Dendro teams?
A: Yes, Lauma’s Dendro Vision is visually confirmed in the official Nod-Krai teaser. Early speculation about potential Dendro-Cryo reaction combinations suggests she might bring unique team synergies, especially with Cryo characters. However, her exact role (DPS, Support, or Sub-DPS) and specific Dendro application patterns remain unknown until official kit details are revealed.
