Anaxa

Last updated 2026-03-03

"My name is Anaxagoras, one of the Seven Sages of the Grove of Epiphany, founder of the Nousporists. Now, don't make me repeat the following again. Rule number one: Do not call me Anaxa. Rule number two: Never interrupt me — silence is golden. Remember that."[12]

Anaxa, full name Anaxagoras, is a playable character in Honkai: Star Rail.

The Grove of Epiphany, where knowledge flourishes and philosophers are born. Yet here stands Anaxagoras the blasphemer, the Chrysos Heir who challenges the Coreflame of Reason: Would you truly embrace infamy and defy prophecy, driving the thorns of doubt into the Sacred Tree of wisdom?

— "Ridiculous. In a world full of lies, I am the only truth."[12]

Each time Anaxa lands 1 hit on enemy targets, inflicts 1 Weakness of a random Type to the targets, lasting for 3 turn(s), with priority to the Weakness Type that the target doesn't already possess.
While Anaxa is on the field, inflicts the "Qualitative Disclosure" state on enemy targets that have at least 5 different Types of Weaknesses. Anaxa deals 18%—32.4% increased DMG to targets afflicted with the "Qualitative Disclosure" state. In addition, after using Basic ATK or Skill on them, unleashes 1 additional instance of Skill on the targets. This additional Skill does not consume any Skill Points and cannot trigger this effect again. If the target has been defeated before the additional Skill is used, it will be cast on one random enemy instead.

  • Anaxa's additional instance of Skill is an automatic Extra Turn, as shown by the four-pointed star icon on the left of this turn in the Action Order.
    • This Extra Turn is generated the moment Anaxa casts his regular or .
    • Ultimates cast during this Extra Turn are queued behind to it, after the last item in the queue.
    • Therefore, it is not possible to insert an Ultimate between Anaxa's regular Basic ATK or Skill and the Extra Turn.
  • Anaxa's first Bonus Ability, Roaming Signifier, regenerates 30 Energy if there are no enemy targets in the "Qualitative Disclosure" state at the start of the turn.
  • Anaxa's second Eidolon, Soul, True to History, triggers 1 instance of the Talent's Weakness Implant effect on enemy targets when they enter the battlefield and reduces their All-Type RES by 20%.
