Castorice revealed as new unit for Honkai Star Rail 3.2 update

Trailblazers who’ve played through version 3.0’s story quest should have met Castorice by now. The unit, who was confirmed as one of the Amphoreus characters in Honkai Star Rail, is now officially set to debut in version 3.2 via the drip marketing campaign.

Castorice is from Aidonia, which is considered to be the land that admires death. Aidonia has been described as a place where snow falls endlessly and has eventually drifted into a sweet slumber.

On this very land, Castorice was born as the daughter of the River of Souls, Chrysos Heir. Being the Servant of Death, she has long set forth in search of "Death" Coreflame, embracing the solitude of destiny.

Here's how she introduced herself in the official drip marketing campaign:

"Welcome to Okhema. I am Castorice. Apologies, it is my habit to keep my distance from others... I can get closer if you wish, however."
