The notorious faction known as The Stellaron Hunters is a dangerous group of criminals in Honkai. They’re always involved in the main story. While they’re not exactly the main antagonists of Honkai, they are portrayed as anti-heroes with a purpose of collecting Stellarons. One of these Stellaron Hunters was also responsible for putting a powerful Stellaron in the Trailblazer at the start of the Honkai story.

They are a mysterious organization founded and led by Elio, and all members have bounties issued by the Interrastral Peace Corporation, also known as the IPC. Although their intentions of collecting Stellarons are unknown, they always work against the IPC, which is responsible for the economy and order of the entire universe.

  • Bounty: Unknown

Elio is the founder and leader of Stellaron Hunters and is the only unplayable character from this group in Honkai. This mysterious individual is also known as Destiny’s Slave because he possesses the ability to see the future. He’s the one who recruited Kafka and advised her to put the Stellaron in the Trailblazer.

While his motives are unclear, thanks to his ability to see the future he uses scripts to guide his Stellaron Hunters. Although he’s constantly mentioned in major story quests, Elio is yet to make his first appearance and clarify his goal.

She’s a playable five-star Lightning DPS who follows the path of Nihility, and as an individual with the highest bounty, she holds the record on the IPC list as the most wanted criminal.

Although she views the entire universe as a giant game, Silver Wolf is very reliable to her friends and organization. As another playable five-star Nihility unit, Silver Wolf is a great Quantum support to have.

Although he seems straightforward and reckless, that’s because Blade’s cursed with immortality and can never die. He’s another playable five-star Stellaron Hunter who follows the path of Destruction and uses Wind to destroy his opponents.
