After some shocking events of the latest archon quest in Genshin, it is now a wonder whether or not we will get Skirk as a playable character.

So far, Genshin has been consistent in one thing whenever there are playable characters involved, and that is, that the characters with an obviously unique design would undoubtedly become a playable character.
However, there were three exceptions to that consistency. First was Signora.

Signora was introduced in the very early stages of the game and has been appearing in almost every region until Inazuma where she perished.
It is undeniable that she has a unique design to her which makes her supposedly playable. Unfortunately, after she was killed by the Raiden Shogun in Inazuma, that did not seem possible anymore.
However, there are also rumours about Signora being resurrected in the future. If this claim were to be true, then, there is no doubt that she will become a playable character.
Next character is Scaramouche.

For players who have been playing since 1.1 would know that Scaramouche made his first appearance in a time-limited event, Unreconciled Stars. The next time we saw him was in Inazuma and subsequently in Sumeru.
Scaramouche then was definitely a uniquely designed character but Hoyoverse was not bringing out a banner for him for us to pull. Instead, it was just purely meeting him during the various archon quests and hearing of his stories in several other events and world quests.
There was a question mark whether or not he would become playable and whether he was going to meet the same fate as Signora. Eventually, we managed to get him but as Wanderer instead.
Finally, the third exception is none other than Dainsleif.

Again, like the other two characters mentioned previously, he has a unique design. We have met him for four times throughout our course of the gameplay and yet he has no banner allowing us to pull for him.
He is the real question mark whether he will become playable. He could probably the one exception Hoyoverse is making since he is not dead and possibly won't be turning over a new leaf like Wanderer did.
Again, like Signora, there rumours about him being allegedly playable but it is matter of when. It is obvious that we will meet him in Fontaine for the next upcoming Abyss Order story quest, but will he have a banner then?
So far, Genshin has been meeting its consistency of playable characters. Now that they have introduced Skirk, it is now a question of whether or not she would become a playable character.

Skirk is way too powerful that it is unlikely she would meet her demise before we see her again (and possibly in the future). So, the thought of her not becoming playable seems to be thrown out of the window.
Also, I highly doubt she will experience the same situation as Scaramouche unless she experience some sort of harsh betrayal (probably from her master?) but yet at the same time, she seemed to not care about anything as long as she complete her task.
Another possibility for her is that she becomes another uniquely designed non-playable character like Dainsleif. Maybe she would become like another Dainsleif where we occasionally bump into her in this "out-of-the-world" space and do some story quests there.
So far, everything seems to be pointing at Skirk being playable but there is no confirmation on such speculation. Dainsleif is a prime example of this case.

Aether: welcome to the fuck Venti club where we talk about how down bad for Venti we are.
Signora:
Diluc: wait isn't this the point where you realize you went to the wrong club or-
Signora: I know where I walked into, peasant.

In this post, there’s gonna be a lot of videos posted because who on earth have the time to screenshot while battling.
From the previous post, we followed Sara and managed to catch up to her. However, she was unconscious by the feet of Signora. We confronted her of her doings in Inazuma, and of course, she feigned ignorance.
Well, I can only imagine Lumine thinking about Teppei because Signora’s warning was actually very kind.
It’s not like I can out run the Shogun.
The one time I regretted not recording because no one, I repeat, NO ONE expected the traveler to have a voice in this dialogue.
They said that the battles in the story version are much easier than the post-story ones... I can’t remember how many times my characters were on life support.
But naturally, the story forbids us to be killed so we actually won.
I just realised I didn’t get the recording of Signora’s defeat...
Anyway, best to find that in Youtube if you want to watch it. So, after the duel, the Shogun allowed us to walk out of Tenshakkaku alive as winners of the duel. But we all know that deep down, once we step outside, the Shogun will come for us.
And that was what really happened...
Before you hit the play button, be warn that there’s flash lightning!
We entered Ei’s consciousness and started debating about the Vision Hunt Decree. Alas, Ei was too stubborn of her ways and we had to battle.
Don’t mind me bringing Zhongli, totally not my intention to ignite a second archon war.
It seemed like we were unable to best Ei in our duel and just when all hope is lost... Guess who appeared.
Gosh, I always have goosebumps whenever I watch this part. Also, doesn’t it remind you one of those animes when all hopes are lost and the power of friendship just suddenly helps to boost your power? 😂
So with the new power surging through the traveler, I was able to defeat Ei. Ei then shared about her reasons for invoking the decree.
If you are confused with whatever Ei was saying in here, I suggest doing her second character story quest, things will be clearer.
So, yes, we finally brought Ei out of her shell and managed to abolish the Vision Hunt Decree. Once everything settled, we went to speak with Yae about how she managed to rescue us from Scaramouche.
And of course, everyone was dying to know the identity of the prototype doll.
As for the rest...
