What is an Emanator in Honkai Star Rail, and which characters fall into this category?
What is an Emanator in Honkai Star Rail?
The official description of an Emanator by HoYoverse reads:
If mortals receiving the grace of Aeons and grasping the power of Paths are viewed as a singular shattered foam, then the mighty feats of Aeons driving their Paths onwards can be likened to a towering tsunami that engulfs mountains.
In this empty stellar vastness, a small number of favored mortals can also draw upon the power of the Paths with the permission of the Aeons, creating huge waves that erode the coast.
They are referred to as “Emanators.”
While not completely subservient to the Aeons, Emanators are as good as emissaries of the Aeons’ wills in everyone else’s eyes.
In simpler terms, Emanators are people picked by Aeons and given abilities. These individuals typically carry out the Aeons’ desires.
The process of becoming an Emanator differs depending on the Aeon involved, so the way they grant powers and the scope of those powers can vary.
Certain Aeons see these beings as direct representations of themselves, while others are not interested in creating Emanators.
