Scaramouche was the sixth Fatui Harbinger before becoming the Wanderer in Genshin Impact version 3.3. He first appeared before the Traveler and Paimon during their quest in Liyue, wearing dark Inazuman attire that would appear foreign to any new adventurer. During the Inazuma storyline, Scaramouche made his intentions known about plunging the nation into chaos for the many betrayals he had faced in his life as a discarded puppet of the Raiden Shogun. The Traveler stopped the Fatui’s efforts in Inazuma, and Scaramouche attempted to become a god in Sumeru. Once more, the Traveler would stop his efforts, and Scaramouche would find an opportunity to discover truth and redemption for the first time.

Scaramouche’s iconic voice was heard in a past Domino’s Pizza commercial promoting a 2 for $15 pizza deal following the Super Bowl according to a Reddit post by user u/Scion-7-Dawn. Patrick Pedraza, the English voice actor for Scaramouche in Genshin Impact, encourages customers to “drown their sorrows in pepperoni and cheese” while the Domino’s Pizza promotion lasted. u/Scion-7-Dawn’s video uploaded to Reddit depicts an edited Domino’s Pizza cut of The Wanderer’s Anemo awakening as the character remembers his life as Scaramouche.
The voice is rather uncanny for Genshin Impact players that recently encountered the Wanderer in Sumeru. Although Patrick Pedraza is speaking in a more natural voice during the commercial, his performance sounds similar to the Scaramouche’s current portrayal as the Wanderer. Following u/Scion-7-Dawn’s Reddit post, Genshin Impact players have begun to research more voice actors that lent their talents to commercials. For instance, fans discovered that Griffin Burns, Childe’s voice actor, worked in Discovery Kids shows.
HoYoverse’s decision to cast Pedraza as Scaramouche and the Wanderer is well-received to the point where players inquire about his past work. Scaramouche is one of the most impactful characters in Genshin Impact, and Patrick Pedraza’s performance as a voice actor fits the role quite nicely. The Domino’s Pizza commercial should remind players that voice actors adapt to many different roles in and out of gaming.
The Wanderer pledges to assist Nahida and the Traveler from the shadows going forward, but his role may prove to be even more vital in the future. For now, players should look forward to Genshin Impact version 3.4, which will introduce playable characters such as Alhaitham and Yaoyao. Adventures within Sumeru will continue until the next region, Fontaine, is finally introduced in 2023.
Genshin Impact is available now for Android, iOS, PC, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. A Nintendo Switch version is in development with no confirmed release date.
