Honkai Star Rail Leaks: Rappa May Become Your Favorite New DPS Character
The rumored character known as Rappa in is bound to become every player’s favorite DPS if the leaked information about her kit is proven to be true.

There, I was one of the few who got to attend a closed-door presentation of the upcoming action RPG's then-current build, watching a developer navigate a bustling city. The hero, Kliff, a warrior from a combat-hardened outfit, explored the city and unraveled a complex quest chain simply by donating a coin to a beggar and listening to his story. There wasn't a major prompt — it just happened naturally after the player decided to engage.
