ScaraZan

Scarafaru is the het ship between Scaramouche and Faruzan from the Genshin Impact fandom.

Canon
Scaramouche and Faruzan have yet to interact in game, although they were both announced for and released in version 3.3. They do, however, have quite a few similarities. They both possess Anemo visions and have color palettes made largely of shades of blue and white. The two are both from Sumeru, although Scaramouche was originally from Inazuma. Both characters are over 100 years old. Another similarity they share is that they wield ranged weapons, with Scaramouche using a Catalyst and Faruzan using a Bow. Faruzan is the second Anemo bow user, and Scaramouche is the second male Catalyst user, making them both the second of their respective weapon (and other factors’) types.

Their general appearances also have some similarities, and in some cases contrasts. Scaramouche’s hair is dark purple, whereas Faruzan’s is a light teal. They both have some sort of object that rests on their chests. Both have shirt collars that go part way up their necks, and also have short sleeves, although Scaramouche has longer black sleeves underneath. White is a big component in each of their outfits, and they both have eyes that are shades of blue.

Although they have not yet interacted in-game, it’s likely their personalities would clash at first. Scaramouche has a very sharp tongue, whereas Faruzan is kinder, although both can have some sass sometimes. Both Scaramouche and Faruzan have less close relationships with the Traveler, and both saying rude things, though Scaramouche does this far more often. Scaramouche does this because of his history with the Traveler, namely their encounter in Inazuma and their fight after he became an artificial god. Faruzan does this because she’s a teacher and prefers to be treated with the respect of one. In addition, since they are both very old, they’ve each lived through a lot of the history in their respective nations.

Gameplay-wise, they work together very well. Faruzan decreases enemies’ Anemo resistance and gives Anemo damage bonuses to the active character, allowing Scaramouche to increase his damage.

Fanon
Scarafaru is definitely a rarepair and barely any work is out there of the two. Despite this, there are some fans of it, and as Faruzan is a new character there will likely be more fans in the future. Fans of the ship believe that because of Scaramouche's puppet nature, Faruzan would take an interest in him, given her fascination with mechanisms and puzzles. Also, since Faruzan’s personality is much kinder than many of the people Scaramouche knew, she would help him learn how to trust people and be a nicer person in general. They are also a very aesthetically pleasing duo, what with the shades of blue and white, which may help with the ship’s popularity.

Scarafaru is rival by ScaraMona, Dottoscara, KazuScara for Scaramouche and Faruyla and Kavezan for Faruzan.

They currently only have 3 works on AO3.
