Possesses the ability/curse to foresee future possibilities.
Elio, also known as Destiny's Slave, is the leader of the Stellaron Hunters. Possessing the ability to foresee future possibilities, he uses "scripts" to guide his hunters in their missions. According to Constance, Elio possesses a "special existence" and only the Stellaron Hunters know his true identity.[3]
Profile
Elio is the founder and leader of the Stellaron Hunters. He is first mentioned in-game in Trailblaze Mission Chaos In the Deep, as well as in Kafka's character description under her title and name.
History
Little is known about Elio's past. At some point in time, he put out a wanted order to recruit Kafka on Pteruges-V through a meticulous plan involving a canned drink.[4] She accepted his offer after promising to give her the ability to feel fear.[5] Kafka would later recruit Firefly after finding her drifting in space after battling The Swarm.[6] Some time passed before he sent her and Firefly (going by SAM) to find and return with Blade.[5] He promised to bring Blade an eternal end to his life and to everything he had ever hated, earning his loyalty.[7] He took notice of Silver Wolf after her clash with Screwllum,[8] and was present for her recruitment.[9]
At an unknown point in the past, Elio handed the Trailblazer to Kafka after seeing a future possibility where they would eventually change each other.[5] He also told Blade that his script requires Dan Heng alive, despite his desire to kill him.[10]
In the present time, Elio has predicted that the Trailblazer will eventually come to face Nanook, the Aeon of Destruction. They concocted the plan to bring the Astral Express crew to the Xianzhou Luofu, as they believe the Trailblazer will need allies when this future comes to fruition.[11] The Trailblazer's existence also changed Elio's scripts for the Stellarons, as he would often revolve and expand around ones of particular importance, which Firefly noted he no longer followed after the Trailblazer's existence.[12]
Elio is again mentioned in Penacony by Acheron in her conversation with SAM, also calling him "Destiny's Slave." In the script he gave her, Firefly would obtain "unforgettable rewards" in her journey, but she would experience "death" three times, of which the third would not come true in the most terrible form.[13] In their conversation, it is mentioned everything is happening as Elio's script describes, even when Sam tried an easier approach that failed. According to Sam, Acheron has no mentions in Elio's script.[14]

Trivia
- The unnamed white-haired, blue-eyed man in the Honkai: Star Rail x MAPPA Animation Concept Trailer is highly speculated to be Elio:
- The trailer itself focuses heavily on the Stellaron Hunters.
- Scenes transition from him to black cats, which are heavily associated with Elio as strands of Terminus.
- Elio has been credited as the "Script Supervisor" for every alternate ending where the Stellaron Hunters appear beforehand:
- When choosing to remain on the Space Station during Trailblaze Mission chapter Today Is Yesterday's Tomorrow.
- When choosing to refuse Aventurine's invitation during Trailblaze Mission chapter The Sound and the Fury.
- During the "dream" ending of Penacony during Trailblaze Mission The Sun Also Rises.
- After defeating "Harmonious Choir" The Great Septimus during Trailblaze Mission And on the Eighth Day.
- In Fate's Ensemble, a typewriter with a symbol of a cat quotes Sophocles' Ajax: "Many things, I tell you, can be known through mortal eyes; but before he sees it happening, no one can foretell the future, or what his fate will be," which could refer to Elio's ability.
- In the Stellaron Hunter entry in the Data Bank, when referring to Elio, it states "Do not hurt the Destiny's Slave, and do not let them lose their ability of independent thinking." This implies that he is wanted by the Interastral Peace Corporation unharmed and alive, in contrast with the other Stellaron Hunters, who are all wanted dead or alive.
- The following sentence from the same statement, "do not let them lose their ability of independent thinking," may also imply that they find personal use in his foreseeing ability.
