Vipua

Vipua is a term that can refer to several different things, primarily a Finnish word and a fictional concept. In the Finnish language, "vipua" is the partitive singular form of the word "vipuvarsi," which translates to "lever" or "lever arm" in English. This word is used in contexts related to mechanics, engineering, and physics, describing the principle of leverage.

Beyond its literal translation, "Vipua" is also known as a fictional entity within the world of the video game "Genshin Impact." In this context, Vipua is a character, specifically an Anemo Slime. Anemo Slimes are common enemies encountered in the game, often appearing in groups and utilizing wind-based attacks. They are characterized by their round, bouncy bodies and their affiliation with the element of Anemo, which governs wind. These slimes are typically found in open areas and are part of the environmental challenges players face during exploration and combat. Their behavior is usually simple, focused on approaching and attacking the player with their elemental abilities. The name "Vipua" as applied to this in-game entity is likely a creative choice by the game developers.
