Who Is Flins?

Flins is a limited 5-star Electro Polearm character from Nod-Krai (Snezhnaya). He is a Lightkeeper — a lone guardian of a lighthouse and cemetery on a northern island. His full name is Kyryll Chudomirovich Flins, and he is a centuries-old aristocratic fairy of Snezhnaya who awakened from self-imposed slumber to join the Lightkeepers. His constellation is the Night Lantern, and his in-game birthday is October 31.

Flins is an on-field Electro DPS built around the Lunar Electro-Charged reaction — a special variant of Electro-Charged exclusive to Nod-Krai characters. He enters Ghostflame Reveal mode via his Elemental Skill, converting all attacks to Electro DMG, and his primary nuke is a special low-cost Elemental Burst (30 energy) that deals Lunar Electro-Charged damage. His full name in the original lore is Kyryll Chudomirovich Flins.
