Way back in December 2023 and January 2024, HoYoVerse teased Honkai: Star Rail Annihilation Gang Ever-Flame Mansion members like Constance, aka The Dahlia. They even got their own trailer! Then the 2.0 update kicked off and Penacony’s storyline happened, making the members’ appearances a little uncertain. But now the company confirmed on social media the 3.8 update will include The Dahlia as a playable character.

Even though The Dahlia is a former member of a group that followed the Path of Destruction, that isn’t the Path Constance will “walk” in Honkai: Star Rail. Instead, she’s a five-star Nihility character. This means she’ll focus on inflicting status effects and damage over time. As her element is Fire, that means we’ll likely see her inflicting Burn on foes. 

The description of her suggests she could even be a part of the current Trailblaze Mission storyline on Amphoreus. This is because she referenced how the person she’s speaking to’s memories are “thorny” and mentioned, “you will learn how the past is being cremated and how the future is being buried.” 

This means there is still the potential for three other Annihilation Gang Ever-Flame Mansion characters to show up in Honkai: Star Rail. These are Akash the Tuner, Caterina the Shacklebound, and Dubra the Scribe. 

Honkai: Star Rail is available on the PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and Constance the Dahlia will debut after the 3.8 update.
