Nihilux — “Origin: Aha”

Expected Warp Schedule

Based on current leaks, Nihilux is highly likely to arrive in Version 4.1 of the Planarcadia update!

Wondering why we think so? Check out our 4.1 Banners for the full breakdown.

Character Profile

"Known as the strictest mother of the Aeons!"

"As long as she turns in her manuscripts on time (yeah, right)"

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Path: Elation | Attribute: ?

The name Nihilux is likely derived from the Latin words nihil, meaning "nothing" or "nothingness," and lux, meaning "light."

Nihilux is a brand-new character, a "Scrivener" — an artist who paints with her brush. She wears a beret, sports silvery-white hair, and rocks a pair of semi-rimless glasses. With those striking violet eyes, her elegant, intellectual vibe practically leaps off the screen!

Her combat attribute is still up in the air — it could be Quantum or Ice. Her title prefix is "Origin: Aha," and her lore hints she's "the strictest mother of the Aeons." Sounds like she's shaping up to be a powerhouse in the game's lore, possibly even one of the key faces of the 4.x era!

As for her role? LDShop speculates she'll lean toward a sub-DPS or higher position. Considering her banner might drop right before the anniversary, it's less likely she'll be a pure main DPS — so sub-DPS seems like a solid bet for now.

Conclusion

All the details and rumors about Nihilux above are still subject to change. For the final say on her kit, stats, and release timing, keep an eye on official announcements from Honkai: Star Rail!
