| “ | The good thing about "ordinary" is that everything is an object of reference, and everyone understands you. People are the same, they can understand, empathize, encourage and support one another. When you're sick, a doctor can diagnose you because they are you. When something goes wrong, you can ask people who've made the same mistake for their experience, because you are them. But a peculiar person... They don't have much recourse for the things we take for granted. The essence of their life is fundamentally different. |

Sucrose further says that Albedo attracts many Teyvat academics to study under him. Albedo is so outstanding that he came to understand life and physic laws from a different world in less than a day of study. Additionally, an alchemical formula that the combined efforts of Sucrose and Timaeus could not decipher was immediately grasped by Albedo. Furthermore, Albedo, followed by Diluc, are the only persons who recognize Alice's pranks in Midsummer Island Adventure)
Weaknesses: None notable
Notable Attacks and Techniques:
Alchemy: Alchemy is an ancient art in Teyvat that typically revolves around life and elemental reactions, generally using Mora as a catalyst in combination with specific materials to cause physical transformation. Alchemists go a step further, gathering, storing, and controlling pure elemental energy, such as with Timaeus; creating potions and mechanisms with various effects, such as with Lisa; and even permanently altering the genetic makeup of all forms of life, such as with Sucrose.
- Art of Khemia: The Art of Khemia is a form of alchemy that focuses on creating life due to originating from the underground nation of Khaenri'ah, where natural life was scarce. This style of alchemy is vastly different from the alchemical arts practiced in Teyvat. Rhinedottir used this alchemy to create Black Dragon Durin, a monstrous being, and artificial humans such as Albedo.
Geo Vision: A Vision is a gift from the gods of Teyvat that allows humans to wield elemental powers, turning them into Allogenes. Albedo's Vision is Geo-attributed, thus granting him the ability to freely manipulate all forms of earth and providing him access to as much soil as he needs to create life with the Art of Khemia.
- Abiogenesis - Solar Isotoma: Albedo creates a solar isotoma with alchemy, inflicting Geo damage on all nearby opponents. The solar isotoma generates Transient Blossoms at an enemy's location whenever they take damage anywhere within range of the isotoma.
- Rite of Progeniture - Tectonic Tide: Albedo commands massive Geo crystals to burst out of the ground and deal damage. When performed within the solar isotoma's range, Fatal Blossoms will spawn everywhere within said range.
- Calcite Might: Transient Blossoms deal 25% more damage to enemies below 50% HP.
- Flower of Eden: Transient Blossoms regenerate elemental energy for Albedo.
- Opening of Phanerozoic: Transient Blossoms grant Albedo stacks of Fatal Reckoning, with each stack increasing the damage of Transient Blossoms and Tectonic Tide significantly.
- Dust of Purification: All allies within range of the solar isotoma have their damage increased by 17%.
