  "textContent": "**Quick answer:** Lohen is an upcoming character in _Genshin Impact_ who serves as the Vice Captain of the Knights of Favonius Fifth Company. He appears as a **Cryo** element user and wields a **Polearm**. Following his appearance in Version 6.4 promotional materials, he is expected to become a playable character in the **Luna VI** update around April 2026.\n\nImage credit: __miHoYo (via Genshin Impact wiki)__\n\n* * *\n\nLohen has transitioned from a character mentioned only in dialogue to a visible participant in the game's main storyline. As a high-ranking member of the Knights of Favonius, he played a key role in Varka's expedition to Nod-Krai before returning to Mondstadt. Below are the specific details regarding his combat profile, lore, and voice cast.\n\n### Identity and Lore\n\nLohen holds the rank of Vice Captain within the Fifth Company of the Knights of Favonius. The Fifth Company specializes in ranged weaponry and utilizes unique combat tactics; rather than fighting as a single large unit, they often split into smaller squads to support other companies and secure tactical advantages against long-range enemies.\n\nWithin the game's narrative, Lohen was a member of Grand Master Varka's expedition team, serving in the mobile contingent. Following the resolution of events involving Rerir in Nod-Krai, Lohen and other personnel from the Fifth Company received orders to return to Mondstadt. He works closely with the surveyor Mika, helping the junior knight adjust to new duties and find optimal positions for his work.\n\nCharacter dialogue establishes Lohen as a battle-hardened figure. Varka has described Lohen as being even tougher than himself. Mika notes that Lohen possesses a distinct charisma that motivates his companions to execute brave and sometimes reckless tactics in battle.\n\nLohen holds the rank of Vice Captain within the Fifth Company of the Knights of Favonius | Image credit: __miHoYo (via YouTube/@Yakuza Impact)__\n\n### Element and Weapon\n\nPromotional videos and in-game cutscenes for the Luna updates have revealed Lohen's combat design:\n\n  * **Element:** Cryo (A Cryo Vision is visible on his back).\n  * **Weapon:** Polearm (He has been depicted wielding a Favonius Lance).\n\n\n\nWhile characters in development can undergo changes before their final release, his current model and cutscene appearances consistently depict him as a Cryo polearm user.\n\n### Release Window\n\nLohen was fully revealed in the _Genshin Impact_ Version 6.4 (Luna V) livestream. Based on the standard update schedule, he is slated to become a playable character in a subsequent patch, likely **Version 6.5** or **Luna VI**. If the six-week update cycle remains consistent, his banner would arrive in **April 2026**.\n\nLohen is expected to become playable in April 2026 | Image credit: __miHoYo (via YouTube/@Yakuza Impact)__\n\n### Voice Actors\n\nLohen is portrayed by the following voice actors across the game's different language settings:\n\n  * **English:** Nick Wolfhard\n  * **Japanese:** Amasaki Kōhei\n  * **Chinese:** Ling Jingnan\n  * **Korean:** Lee Sang-ho\n\n\n\nSome early credits in English promotional material listed \"Rowan,\" but later official programs and Japanese announcements confirmed his name as Lohen.",
