"The Captain"“Still, it's a shame we never faced off five hundred years ago. You could have seen what I was truly capable of.”
Mavuika“I agree. Had we fought then, I'd also have been more motivated to go all out.”

Mavuitano is the het ship between Mavuika and Capitano from the Genshin Impact fandom.

Canon[]

Archon Quests[]

Act II - A Decision[]

A person enters the stadium to warn the Archon (Mavuika) that the Fatui were present. Two Fatui Skirmishers arrive, before another person does, revealed to be Capitano — the first of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers. Capitano accuses Mavuika of failing to fulfill the oath made 500 years ago and proclaims that he will usher in a new era and rules for Natlan, but first by eliminating the old. Mavuika and Capitano clash, the former managing to land a searing wound on his chest before someone from the Masters of the Night-Wind emits a fog that allows Capitano to escape.

Act III - The Flickering Light Splits in Twain[]

Capitano heads to the stadium to confront Mavuika, ordering two subordinates with him and the others to stay behind and retreat if the plan fails.

Act IV - The Rainbow Destined to Burn[]

Heading to the Speaker's Chamber, Mavuika informs the three that she had located Capitano.

Mavuika intends to fight the Captain again, stating that if they could destroy the Source Mechanism, his plan would be stopped. Kinich and Xilonen advise against fighting him again, since she had lost her powers to fuel the Sacred Flame. Mavuika tells Kinich that Capitano would be guarding the device.

The group manages to reach Capitano and Ororon, who activates the device. A voice then echoes through the cavern, revealing itself to be Yohualtecuhtin, the Lord of the Night that Citlali had mentioned earlier. When the device was activated, Capitano asks why the Source Mechanism only awoke her rather than repair the lines, and she tells him that it was the source of the nation's Ley Lines. Mavuika explains that when the Descender and the dragons fought, it caused immense damage, especially to Natlan's Ley Lines. To stabilize them, Yohualtecuhtin used fragments of the old Ley Lines to reconstruct a similar network, creating the Night Kingdom.

Yohualtecuhtin states that due to Capitano and Ororon's plan, she could fulfill its promise to rebuild the Ley Lines at Mavuika's command, though Mavuika refuses; it would be no different than using the Gnosis. Capitano states that they don't have a choice, but Mavuika states that if the Abyss were to invade again, it would be worse for future generations.

Capitano insists on ignoring false hope and maximizing the chances of survival, while Mavuika continues to reject his reasoning as it would make their life meaningless. As the two continue arguing, Ororon interjects, stating that with his life rekindled, he wishes to have a life with meaning. Xilonen agrees with him, and Yohualtecuhtin states that she is ready to perform the deed if they need to in the foreseeable future. Captiano begrudgingly agrees to Mavuika's plan, as it had the potential to create the best outcome and he grants her his subordinates to use. With a new plan in tow, they leave to have the group outside stop fighting each other.

As One We Watch the Setting Sun[]

Returning to the Speaker's Chamber, Mavuika formally welcomes the Fatui into the alliance against the Abyss. She then asks Capitano how he knew about the Source Mechanism — he reveals that since they weren't getting to the Gnosis, he decided to look for alternate means with Ororon's help. They had tracked down three scholars; Aberewaa, Bosomtwe and Cuxtal, combining their research to locate it. Paimon then asks him how he knew about the Gnosis' power, and he reveals that after the situation in Khaenri'ah had become unsalvageable, he fled with the rest of his platoon to Natlan, which was suffering the same fate. He met with the Masters' chief, Ayizu, who treated him with respect even though many people blamed Khaenri'ah for the disaster. Thus, he resolved to protect Natlan and fought many battles with him, though when he died, he revealed the secret of the Gnosis to him. Mavuika is surprised that he had told Capitano of it, though she had refused all of his suggestions to use it even before the cataclysm. However, she fails to recognize Capitano and assumes the mask must be why.

Capitano states that despite his curse, his flesh still rotted and thus he would not be recognizable to her. He also laments that apart from his physical appearance, his strength had also waned, though Mavuika states that he was still incredibly strong. Capitano states that if they had fought 500 years ago, the outcome could have been much more different. Regardless, he acknowledges that he failed to acquire the Gnosis, as he intended to use it to save Natlan and then give it to the Tsaritsa.

A Fuel Named "Fate"[]

With the battle over, the group assembles at the Weary Inn, where a celebratory feast is being held. Mavuika states that their efforts have forced the Abyss deep into the depths of the Night Kingdom, and she will go there alone to stamp out the remaining traces of Abyss, as the energy was far too lethal for normal people to go to. She promises to grant the fallen a worthy funeral, while Xilonen suggests giving a moment of silence for them. Mavuika then thanks Capitano for his efforts.

Elsewhere, Capitano returns to Yohualtecuhtin, aware that Mavuika used Ronova's powers and thus will have to die for using them. Yohualtecuhtin wonders how he was aware of it before realizing that the Ruler of Death had also sent him on a long journey. He has his own final foe to face, and asks for her help for the sake of the lost souls and Natlan's future.

Quotes[]

Mavuika“Lastly, there is more person I must thank for his extraordinary support in our time of need, and that is The Captain.”
"The Captain"“Speaking in personal capacity, I should like to offer my sincere congratulations on your victory.”

Fanon[]

Pre-Version 5.0[]

Before Mavuika's official debut, some fans joked about Il Capitano could defeat the Pyro Archon, given his reputation as the 1st of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers. This fueled excitement and speculation about their potential clash once Natlan was released. The hype around Capitano’s status and potential strength especially after seeing how powerful the previous two harbingers added to this anticipation, though it did catch some fuel among the fans of the two characters due to speculation debates back then. However, after Mavuika's reveal and the interactions between her and Capitano in the Ignition Teaser, fans began to see the potential for an enemies to lovers trope between the two.

Trivia[]

  • The ship name "Caprisun" is based on a drink "Capri-Sun", it is a pun created by fans that combines parts of Capitano's name and Mavuika's symbolism. "Capri" is similar to "Capi", while "Sun" represents Mavuika, the Pyro Archon of Natlan. This is further emphasized by the 6-pointed sun shape in Mavuika’s pupils, as well as the sun motifs present in parts of her clothing.
