The Herta is a genius researcher who will finally make her playable debut in the upcoming 3.0 patch. Similar to her currently playable 4-star puppet form, the #83 Member of the Genius Society will also debut as an Erudition Ice character.
The official announcement post had a small excerpt from her.
"The writers from the Intelligentsia Guild wanted to give me an extra title. Something like "Herta Prime" to separate me from my puppets. How banal. Are the puppets not "me" as well? So, I gave them a suggestion — if they dared to write that, then I would call myself THE Herta. It's short, simple, straight to the point, and elegant."
