I'm Phainon of Aedes Elysiae. Greetings. As fellow outlanders in Okhema, our meeting is surely fate's design. Come. Maybe we'll even have a chance to fight alongside each other in the future.
Phainon has been officially announced as an upcoming 5-star playable character in Honkai: Star Rail, revealed through the game's official social media accounts. He follows the Path of Destruction and wields the Physical element.
▍Origins: Aedes Elysiae
Aedes Elysiae, once a remote and isolated frontier settlement, now exists only in cryptic legends. From this forgotten land emerges Phainon, a mysterious figure shaped by prophecy.
Nameless hero █████, the Chrysos Heir carrying the Coreflame of “Worldbearing,”
You must remember the ideals of all worlds, carry the fate of multitudes,
And bring the first light of dawn to the new world.
— “But should dawn have never existed,
Let the fires of rage burn this body to ashes,
And transform into the blazing sun of tomorrow.”
▍Phainon's Combat Mechanism Preview
Ultimate: Solo Domain
Phainon’s ultimate ability establishes a personal domain, forcing all allies to retreat and allowing him to enter a solo combat phase.
Unique Resource System
Unlike conventional characters who accumulate energy, Phainon relies on stacking a special resource to activate his ultimate. These stacks can be gained through multiple in-game triggers.
Strategic Team Composition
Teams built around Phainon typically support him in the early stages of battle. Once his transformation conditions are met, allies are withdrawn, and Phainon takes full control of the battlefield.
▍Recharge Bonus Available for Honkai: Star Rail
Players can enjoy a 25% better value on top-ups through TOPUPlive compared to in-game purchases. Additionally, receive up to 25% extra Ancient Dream Fragments.
With Phainon’s banner approaching, this is the perfect opportunity to prepare for his arrival.
