Welcome to the Honkai: Star Rail Character Sorter

Instructions

Choose which categories you want to include in your sorting and then press either Trailblazer to start. Selecting either, or both, Playable Characters and the Notable NPCs categories will cause the choosing process to be longer (roughly 30 minutes to an hour). After starting simply click between the two character shown that you like more, or, if you equally like both characters, you can select the "tie" option- if it's enabled anyways. Ties and Undos are disabled by default. All choices shown are randomly generated depending on your choices, I do not control the pairings. Once all choices have been completed, a list of your favorite characters will be automatically generated. Screenshot this if you'd like to keep it for future purposes as this site does not save information.

Notes

Categories: If you were to pick an Element Category (ie: Fire) and a Path Category (ie: Destruction)- you won't just get Destruction Fire characters (Firefly), but rather all Fire and all Destruction characters. Keep this in mind when choosing categories as this applies to all of them.

Upcoming Characters: Upcoming Characters are characters that have been announced as playable by HoYoverse, at some point in time. These characters will appear in all categories that apply to them.

Collaboration Characters: Characters that are featured in collaborations with the game and implemented in as units. These characters will only show up in this category and their respective Gender/Rarity/Path/Elements categories, they will not show up in any other category.

Character Alts: This is for all Playable characters that have a variant of themselves because there's too many of them and it makes it difficult to make a favorite character list (the point of this sorter) when you're asked to pick between two options of the same person. What counts and what doesn't is up to Admin's discretion. These characters will only show up in their respective Rarity/Path/Elements/Faction categories, they will not show up in any other category.

Notable NPCs: NPCs are included in this sorter because of Admin's hubris. They will be visible if you have this category selected and will not appear in any other category, unless part of a listed faction. Send a message if you want a specific NPC to be added (up to Admin's discretion). Do note if they have not been shown visually and only in text they cannot be added to the sorter.

Upcoming Updates

(5/22/26) Currently looking into adding; a built-in save image button and a Progress Bar.
Besides that, keeping up with character releases!
There may be a delay for new characters to be added to the sorter. Please be patient and wait a few days (or up to a week) after drip happens for the sorter to be updated as HSR drip marketing happens across different days and I don't work for HoyoVerse.

2026 May (NEW!)

Major update!! First off, the sorter got a design update! I made it more uniformed and less ugly on mobile (while breaking stuff in the process hence why this took forever to release). Added themes!! More themes to come when the inspiration hits. Removed Eous from the corner and added a navigation for the sorter I've made as a replacement. You can now view the changelog and ask questions from the sorter page itself! Wrote a small FAQ section as well, so please read that before sending anything. I've opened an Odaibako as well so you can send questions there too! I've also set up a Neocities mirror as a backup! Source code got a major rehaul, it's more readable now.
(21) Added [Planarcadia] and [Elation] as sorting options. Added [Yao Guang], [Sparxie], [Ashveil], and [Evanescia] to Playable and their respective rarity/path/element. Added [Silver Wolf LV.999], [Caelus • Elation], [Stelle • Elation], [Mortenax Blade], and [Himeko • Nova] to Character Alts and their respective rarity/path/element (plus Upcoming for Blade and Himeko). Added [Nihilux] to Notable NPCs and Planarcadia. Added [Pearl] to Planarcadia. Removed [Hysilens] and [Cerydra] from Notable NPCs (because I forgot to). Added [Sunday] to The Astral Express (yay). Changed images for [Firefly], [Sunday], [Robin], [Acheron], [Jiaoqiu], [The Dahlia], [Saber], and [Archer]. Changed Opal's image to his appearance in the Myriad Celestia Trailer (Anti-Destruction Alliance). Changed Elio's image to his appearance(?) in the Animation Concept Trailer (Death in the Afternoon). Added more Notable NPCs (Stephen Lloyd, Kuchiba, Furbulitzer, Paraprince, Furblix, Furli, Joolyon, Gopher Wood (Request), and all of the Lord Ravagers (Request)). Added [Akivili (Trailblaze)] to Aeons because we finally got an image for them.
(22) Added [Rin Tohsaka] and [Gilgamesh] to Upcoming, Collaboration, and their respective rarity/path/element. Changed image for [Mortenax Blade]. I should've waited for the livestream before I updated this bro.
(26) Font change from FF DIN Pro (actual font game uses, requires self-hosting to use) to Inter (font you can find on Google Fonts so no self hosting, looks similar enough) because I underestimated how much traffic this site gets (I got an email about it this morning...). I have decided to link a Ko-Fi widget to the sorter in the case I start having to pay to keep this running, do not feel pressured to donate if you don't have the means to, any donation is greatly appreciated however!

This is currently listing the latest changes because I'm too lazy to write the previous changes lol. Please look at the Tumblr post mirror for the previous changes for the time being.
