One character in particular who has been met with criticism is Dori, a 4-star Electro character in Genshin Impact hailing from Sumeru. Dori, a traveling merchant, appears to be inspired by the story of Aladdin, accompanied by a genie in a magic lamp. Various adaptations of Aladdin have been set in Middle Eastern countries like Jordan and Iraq, with Disney's fictional setting of Agrabah described as bordering the River Jordan. Dori's pants resemble shalwar, loose pants cuffed at the ankles that are commonly worn throughout South and Central Asia. The character's full name, Dori Sangemah Bay, takes words from Urdu and Hindi. Despite the obvious influences that went into Dori's character,

All but one of Sumeru's leaked playable characters are light-skinned, including the Dendro nation's Archon, Kusanali, whose fairy-like appearance bears an uncanny resemblance to the Traveler's companion in Genshin Impact , Paimon .

Back in July 2021 Version 2.0 introduced the tropical archipelago Inazuma, for example, which came along with the Electro element and a host of new playable characters.

Rumors also suggest that Sumeru will be bigger in size than any past Genshin Impact regions, surpassing even Inaz

Completing these quests will grant the player with Primogems, Hero's Wits, Mystic Enhancement Ores, and Iridescent Flotsams. Iridescent Flotsams can be used to purchase Fischl from the Event S
The hodgepodge of cultures used in Dori's character model demonstrates how Sumeru deviates from Genshin Impact 's previous approach of each region being inspired by a single country. Despite drawing abundant inspiration from numerous South Asian, Central Asian, and Middle Eastern cultures, Genshin Impact opted to give the majority of its Sumeru playable characters pale skin. Though several darker-skinned Sumeru NPCs exist, this can't make up for the majority of Sumeru's playable characters having light skin, nor Genshin Impact 's track record of whitewashing controversies . Hopefully,
