HoYoVerse shared a trailer for Genshin Impact that revealed Ruler of Time Istaroth, one of the Four Shades of the Heavenly Principles, shares the same voice actors as existing character Venti in every language. While the company didn’t officially announce that, it did share the character’s performer in the Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean trailers, which confirmed it.
Editor’s Note: If you haven’t been keeping up with Genshin Impact, the Teyvat Chapter Interlude Teaser trailer will include spoilers for the story.
Here’s the English version of the “Teyvat Chapter Interlude Teaser: The Gods’ Limits” Genshin Impact video, which features Venti voice actress Erika Harlacher also acting as the actor for Ruler of Time Istaroth.
To compare, here’s the English “Venti: A Bard’s Business” trailer that also shows Harlacher as his voice actor in Genshin Impact.
Here’s the full list of voice actors who act as the performer for Venti and the voice actress for Istaroth in Genshin Impact.
- Chinese: Miaojiang

Venti is the Anemo Archon in Genshin Impact and the first Archon we meet in the game. However, when we do, he’s actually disguised himself as a bard, so nobody in the country knows he’s really their Archon Barbatos. He makes his home in Mondstadt, and the first Archon Quests deal with helping him save the dragon Dvalin. However, we also know that even before he became the Barbatos or Venti, he was an elemental spirit.
As for Istaroth, we don’t know much about her in Genshin Impact yet. She’s a Heavenly Principles Four Shades who also goes by lots of names. The video referred to her as Ruler of Time, but in-game she’s also been referred to as Undying Wind.
Genshin Impact is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, PC, and mobile devices, and the next update will arrive on July 30, 2025.
