Who is Honkai: Star Rail’s Robin?
Rumored Abilities
Robin is a Halovian singer born in Penacony, and the sister of Sunday, one of the leaders of The Family. She rose to fame with her angelic voice, which was further amplified by the power of The Harmony, so she could broadcast her music wherever she performed. InHonkai: Star Rail’s main story, Robin is invited back home to Penacony to perform in the Charmony Festival. The Astral Express Crew meets her and Sunday upon arriving at the Planet of Festivities, and they also accompany the Trailblazer on their first journey to the Dreamscape.
As a playable 5-star character, Robin is a 5-star Physical unit following the Path of Harmony, which means that she’s a support character that can buff her allies' stats. SomeHonkai: Star Railleaks on Robin’s ability kitreveal that she can allegedly increase her allies' ATK and CRIT stats. The character truly shines when her Ultimate is triggered, because not only does she significantly increase her team’s stats and get additional ATK DMG, but she also performs a song while the ability’s in effect.
