With Blade's banner now available, you might notice a familiar face in the banner. You might even get a copy or two while rolling for Blade himself. If you are wondering who this beautiful sword-wielding character is, then look no further. Here's everything we know about adorkable swordmaster Sushang in Honkai: Star Rail, including her Skills, Materials, Traces, and more.

Honkai: Star Rail – Sushang

“Born on the Xianzhou Yaoqing, sent to the Cloud Knights of the Luofu for military training. She wields her family sword, a gift from her mother, and longs for the future she will go on to write.”

Sushang is one of the game's most adorable characters and yet another familiar face.  In-game, she is a 4-star Physical character, and her Path is The Hunt. Members in this Path are known for their ability to deal large amounts of damage to a single target, allowing them to take down enemies with ease. Sushang does this by dealing multiple instances of Physical DMG to one target using her Skill.

Players will meet Sushang in Xianzhou: The Luofu after finishing the Jarilo-VI chapter of the game. She is available for summon right now either in the Standard or the Event warp banner. Her last rate-up banner was during the Jing Yuan banner back in May. Players who want to get her will have until August 9, 2023, to roll for her. That's around 3 weeks from now.

In the English voiceover, she is voiced by Anjali Kunapaneni, who has notably lent her voice to other video game characters such as Grim in Tiny Tina's Wonderlands as well as Dori from the other HoYoverse title Genshin Impact.

Fukuen Misato provided the voice for Sushang's Japanese voice. Ogura is known for voicing Sakura Kasugano from Street Fighter, Himiko Toga from My Hero Academia, as well as Li Sushang from the other HoYoverse title Honkai Impact 3rd.
