Fugue, originally known as Tingyun, is a 5-star character who used to be the Ambassador of the Whistling Flames merchant guild.

During the Xianzhou Luofu Trailblaze Missions, a shocking twist revealed that Tingyun was actually an imposter possessed by Lord Ravager Phantylia. Phantylia ultimately betrayed her host, leading to Tingyun’s apparent death.

In a surprising turn of events during the Trailblaze Continuance Mission “Finest Duel Under the Pristine Blue (II),” the real Tingyun is revealed to be alive. She is discovered by Ruan Mei, a member of the Genius Society.

Now reborn as Fugue, Tingyun makes a triumphant return in Honkai Star Rail.

When will the Fugue banner end in Honkai Star Rail?

The limited-time character and light cone Fugue banners conclude on December 25, 2024, three weeks after their release.

If you hope to add Fugue to your team, now’s the time to stock up on Stellar Jades and Star Rail Special Passes. You can find these Warp items in various places, including limited-time events, the Treasures Lightward series, Trailblaze Missions, and more.

Even if you don’t get lucky in the 50-50 pull, remember that the Fugue banners likely return in the future. So, if you miss out this time, you’ll have another chance to pull for this character and her light cone later.
