According to the Honkai Star Rail leak from HomDGCat, the 5-star Herta variant will be a completely new character that players will be able to pull from the event banner, similar to Dan Heng’s Imbibitor Lunae variant.

It is also being speculated that the unit's new form will be a Ice Erudition character, same as her 4-star version.

Additionally, some parts of the 5-star Herta variant's kit have been leaked, including her Skill, Ultimate, passive Talent, Technique, and Traces.

Ultimate

Upon activation, the Ultimate deals a significant amount of damage to all enemies on the battlefield and gains a certain amount of stacks of a unique buff.

When the 5-star Herta variant uses her skill, she consumes one stack of this unique buff to deal additional damage.

Skill

Upon activating her Skill, the 5-star Herta variant will deal damage to all targets by performing the following steps:

1. She will inflict a mark on the targeted enemy and detonate it.
2. Upon detonation, the mark will spread to the adjacent units, and Herta will detonate them again.
3. When the mark detonates, it will spread to all adjacent enemies for a third time, and they will take damage from it again.

The mark will disappear when the process ends.

Passive Talent

When the 5-star Herta variant’s allies use their Ultimate, the character will replenish some of her own Energy and receive an ATK boost that can be stacked.

Technique

The 5-star Herta variant’s ATK will get boosted upon entering a battle. This ATK boost lasts for a couple of turns.
