# Faceless Ayato Faceless Ayato is a Genshin Impact creepypasta that started on TikTok in November 2022, following a player who downloads the game from a shady site and encounters a blank-faced version of the character Kamisato Ayato. The story expanded into a multi-video mystery about Faceless Itto and Faceless Baal, driving fan art and theories across TikTok and Twitter. ## Overview Faceless Ayato is a creepypasta rooted in Genshin Impact, centered on a player who downloads the game from an "unknown website" and encounters an eyeless, mouthless version of the character Kamisato Ayato in their single-player session[1]. Later installments introduce Faceless Itto and Faceless Baal, connected through cryptic in-game notes and item descriptions[2]. The story blends jump-scare bait with a murder-mystery frame. Diona's character description hides riddles pointing to specific in-world locations, medical reports describe a boy named Itto undergoing amnesia therapy, and journal pages accuse Ayato of being dangerous to "universe 2"[2]. Fans eventually built theories painting Ayato as a real person killed by his mentally ill friend Itto rather than the monster he first appears to be[3]. ## How It Spread @bububimi_'s translated debut hit over 1.6 million views in two days, well past the Russian original's roughly 790,000 views across a week (translated from Russian)[2]. A November 17th video showing Faceless Itto holding Ayato prisoner pulled more than 134,000 views in a day on the English channel[3]. On November 11th, the Russian creator posted a clip where Ayato appeared to murder another character, deepening the story's horror angle[1]. Fan artists picked up the character within days of the translations landing. On November 17, 2022, Twitter user @Islaboo_art posted Faceless Ayato fan art that pulled over 40,000 likes in a day[4]. Artist @Softeas_ followed with a separate piece that hit roughly 34,000 likes[5]. By November 18, @bububimi_ uploaded a summary video pitching Ayato as a real person killed by a delusional Itto, and that reading spread through the fandom as the default plot theory[2]. ## How to Use The format inspired fan art of Kamisato Ayato with a blank, featureless face, often paired with Faceless Itto or Faceless Baal versions of other Genshin Impact characters[4]. Video edits typically recreate the original setup, showing a character standing with their back turned before rotating to reveal no face[1]. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Faceless Ayato?
