Tartaglia "Childe" is a 5-star Hydro character in Genshin Impact. He was released on Genshin Impact 1.1 update, along with the 5-star Geo Archon, Zhongli, the 4-star Cryo bow-user, Diona, and the 4-star Pyro claymore-user, Xinyan.

Childe is a bow-user that's unique for his swap between ranged and melee-stance. Despite being a bow character, his skill allows him to fight at close range, unleashing weaponry made of pure water effectively. With Sucrose and Bennett's assist, he is commonly used to creating big numbers using his burst.
