Her character description from the official Wuthering Waves website reads: “Being a Congenital Resonator, Yinlin was once a remarkable Patroller. Following the loss of her identity in a case, Yinlin now resides in the shadows, delving into the depths of crime alone."
As per the ever-helpful WutheringWaves.gg, we know what Yinlin’s Skills are:
Her Skills involve using Zapstring to attack enemies in Basic, Heavy and Mid-Air attacks. Her Resonance Skill Magnetic Roar in which “Zapstring deals Electro DMG (damage) to the target and puts Yinlin into the Execution Mode.”
While in Execution Mode, Yinlin will fire an Electromagnetic Blast while hitting an enemy with a Basic attack or Dodge Counter. Her Electromagnetic Blast attacks “all targets marked with Resonance Circuit Sinner’s Mark, dealing Electro DMG”.
She can also attack enemies with Lightning Execution, which is a powerful Electro attack.
Finally, her Resonance Liberation is 'Thundering Wrath', which makes Zapstring deal a powerful thunder attack over "a large range".
