Very well, as I thought, this body can bring out even more of my potential. As a Herrscher, there is nothing I can't do.

~ Sirin awakening in Kiana Kaslana's body.
“
Do you want to get this body back and save the girl? You are, right? Is she a loved friend and a member of your little family? Did you build sweet little memories together? Made any lasting promises? If that's the case... Then I shall kill her precious family with her hands and body. Those of you who loved her and are tryin' to save her... you shall drink from the chalice of pain, sorrow and despair, and endure the most gruesome death of this world. I shall shatter your beautiful memories and transform them into a hellscape of despair and pain. She will then witness your mangled and defiled bodies. She will be drowned in your blood before I smother her out for good. She will die in agony and sorrow as I enjoy myself with her tears. Family, friends, happiness, memories, dreams, hope, future, love... She does not deserve it. She is unworthy of this. She will never get these. And I shall start with you. My dearest Mei, you are the other half of my desires, the burning passion of my soul. Embrace me! Join your strength with mine and give me POWER to destroy this world! To make the creator cry! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! This thunderclap is music to ears! Come! Offer yourself to your Goddess! We hereby the Judgment Day!

~ Herrscher of the Void's speech.
“
Do not waste the Herrscher power and intellect gift I gifted you. Humans are numerous as ants. They multiply like parasites. A few rocks and countries destroyed are not going to kill all of them. Furthermore, humans are deceitful creatures. Even I fell to their trickery once. Now, come to the moon, First Herrscher. If you don't come, I'll deliver four meteors to Earth every seventy-four hours. Don't keep me waiting, I'm low on patience.
Humans, your existence is a mistake. War, cheating, jealously, greed. Your existence is a sin that has to be wiped out. You once made me lose everything. But now I'll devour everything. Because I am the Houkai (Apocalypse).
„
~ Herrscher of the Void's most iconic quote.
“
So many people died because of her. Cecilia too... We gave her a chance to turn back... but she refused to do so. Let her slowly regret her crimes for all eternity.

~ Siegfried Kaslana on Sirin.
The one born as Sirin (in Chinese: 西琳, Xī Lín) and later better known as Herrscher of the Void (in Chinese: 空之律者, Kōng Zhī Lǜzhě), also known as Queen of the Void, K-423, 2nd Herrscher, Second Ruler of the New World, Houkai God, Queen of the Houkai, Ultimate Ruler, God Kiana, Goddess of the Void and possibly hundreds more is the secondary antagonist of Honkai Impact 3rd franchise.
In Guns Girl Z, the Herrscher of the Void of the Old World was born when the innocent blind Sirin was infected with its energy, showing her the true disgusting world she believed to be beautiful. Starting the Second Houkai War, Herrscher of the Void almost caused the end of civilization but was sealed with the efforts of Welt and Cecilia Shariac. Years later, Kiana unintentionally merged with the core of the 2nd Herrscher during an invasion of Anti-Entrophy to St. Freya Cathedral under the machinations of Cocolia, becoming the Herrscher of the End and destroying the reality. In the new Honkaiverse, the Herrscher of the Void came to life in the year 2000 D.C. and started the Second Eruption after her host Sirin, one of the guinea pigs of Schicksal's Babylon Tower, awakened her powers as a Herrscher, causing a bloody war between the Houkai and humanity that took the lives of billions. Later, she made a deal with the Houkai God to gain even more power and used her new powers to destroy multiples continents with debris of the moon, killing a large portion of mankind before starting the Armageddon. With the war, she founded her own army of Houkai and Pseudo-Herrschers. She was killed by the S-Valkyrie Cecilia Shariac during a rain of nuclear missiles but not before taking the whole North Siberia into her void realm, killing millions more before her defeat. Years later after her first defeat she awakened in the body of her own benevolent clone K-423 (Kiana Kaslana) under the manipulation of Otto Apocalypse, and started the 4th Houkai Eruption, pushing all life of the planet to the brink of extinction before she could be sealed once again. She continued to exist inside of K-423 and tried to take over her mind multiple times but the traumatic experiences of her host allowed her to control the Herrscher of the Void's powers, becoming Void Drifter. In the battle against World Serpent, where Kiana had to face one of the many victims of the Herrscher, Raven from World Serpent, Kiana fully learned how to use the Herrscher's powers and gems after saving Ark City from the World Serpent's Houkai energy bomb. In the following chapters, the true Herrscher of the Void is expected to return in 2 months after Kiana absorbed too much Honkai energy from World Serpent's HW bomb to save Ask City, forcing the main heroines to follow different paths to seal the Honkai before Kiana can become the Herrscher of the Void who is returning more powerful than ever before.
It was much later revealed Sirin and Herrscher of the Void are different entities and fully became different entities when Sirin was cloned, becoming K-423 (a clone body of Kiana Kaslana) by Otto Apocalypse and Schicksal's scientists and had her memories erased by the former in 2000, soon after the end of the Second Eruption. It resulted in "Sirin" being actually the true main protagonist of the Honkaiverse's Current Era (the Kiana Kaslana the player uses during course of the game) and the Herrscher of the Void being the primary threat to the heroes while being her former self. She primarily serves the purposes of the The Will of Honkai, to destroy the human civilization the Herrscher of the End failed in destroying after a few human beings who survived the First Apocalypse repopulated the planet again.
Although she is a servant of the overall main antagonist (to the Will of Honkai, aka Honkai God), Herrscher of the Void is the biggest threat faced by the protagonists and the most dangerous and dreadful Herrscher of history for unleashing two Apocalypses upon humankind since Herrscher of the Corruption the 12th Ruler of the Old World who started the Second Apocalypse in 1470 with the Black Death in the New World, making herself the most evil and fearsome Ruler of history and later the Herrscher of the Reason, also known as Welt Joyce who was known as the First Herrscher of humanity and the one who caused the First Impact in Berlin in 1952. Aside from bringing hundreds of millions players to the game thanks to her massive popularity, her character was critically acclaimed for being the ideal female villain. Moreover, her widely villainous role as an extremely powerful, sinister, misanthropic, vile entity and yet beautiful girl who had success in almost all of her genocidal plans while being the very embodiment of the Apocalypse itself, easily made her one of the most influential, complex, popular and iconic female villains in Asian mobile games.
In China, Sirin is voiced by Wang Xiaotong in Chapter 3 and 4, whom also voiced the Herrscher of the End and Sirin (Celine) of the Old World in Houkai Gakuen 2 (Guns Girl Z), sharing the role with Shan Xin in times depending on the character's form.
In her God Kiana (Kiana Kaslana), form she is voiced by Shan Xin in the Chinese original version who is considered the most famous virtual vocaloid of the country. She also voiced Kiana Kaslana in the OVA Will of the Herrscher and The Last Lesson. Shan Xin also voiced Enma Ai in Hell Girl in one of her few villainous roles.
Japanese[]
As Sirin, she is voiced by Sakura Tange in the Japanese version of the game. Sirin was her first villainous role before her debut as Jack the Ripper in Fate/Apocrypha and later Fate/Grand Order.
As God Kiana (Kiana Kaslana's original character), Herrscher of the Void is voiced by Rie Kugimiya, whom also voiced Agnese Sanctis in Toaru no Majutsu no Index, Sugar in One Piece, Nora in Noragami, Mizore Shirayuki in Rosario+Vampire, Innominat the Suppressor in Tales of Berseria and Juuzou Suzuya in Tokyo Ghoul.
Official Description[]
Mainstream[]
In the Old Honkaiverse, Sirin was a blind girl who discovered the world was ugly when she gained vision after she became a Herrscher, causing her to destroy her village and start the Second Eruption. After her defeat by the hands of Cecilia, she possessed Cecilia's newborn daughter and 16 years later took over her body for herself, becoming the Chosen One and destroyed the Original Timeline, resulting in the birth of the New World. In the non-canon DLC Fire Moth, God Kiana woke up in the same world she destroyed but attempted to drag the entire reality to death with her to end everything that is beautiful and ugly for not being worth of her existence. Her reign of terror came to an end when she was defeated by the combined forces of Houraiji Kyuushou and the Herrscher of the Thunder.
In the New Honkaiverse, Sirin was born in Belarus and was once a poor orphan girl who used to be one of the test subjects of Schicksal's Babylon Tower's research department, where she was daily tortured with honkai injections and suffered brutal human experiments. Sirin was the Second Ruler of the New World after Welt Joyce and Yang. She dominated the power of the void. Once she awakened the power of the 2nd Herrscher within her, she immediately went on a rampage and killed all 322 scientists of the facility, including some of other children out of spite and hatred. As the new queen of the Houkai race, she discarded her humanity to become a Herrscher and an Apostle of God, and begun to hunt down Valkyries and humans alike all across the world, becoming a brutal terrorist with the blood of thousands in her hands until her defeat by the hands of the 1st Lawman of the Logic, Welt Yang. She was killed by the S-Valkyrie Cecilia Shariac during a rain of nuclear missiles but not before taking the whole North Siberia into her void realm.
After her first death 15 years ago (2000) her Ruler core has been divided into four parts, they are called the Domination of Thunder, the Crave of Storm, the Silence of Death and the Contamination of Flame. The four different parts are kept separately by Schicksal and Anti-Entropy. In order to reappear Sirin's power, Otto Apocalypse has created K-423 using Kiana's DNA, the second herrscher core and techniques that cloned Theresa, his niece. However, this makes Sirin alive within K-423 and possesses a considerable amount of power, which is just as Otto secretly planned.
Normally Sirin's power doesn't normally show up, but in some special conditions, her power would burst, dealing a large scale of destruction. The mysterious sound in Kiana's (K-423) head is actually Sirin's, but she doesn't have a clue. During the events of Shadow Moon arc, she takes over her mind after being fused with the Gem of Death and tries to destroy Singapore to gain more power but failed. 1 year later, she attempts to break her host's sanity by tormenting her with nightmares of the past.
Months later, Kiana was captured by Schicksal and was forced to submit to Sirin's core. Sirin then takes over Kiana's body again and proceeded to spread destruction and chaos to the entire planet with volcanic activities, starting the Fourth Eruption and pushing all life to a near-extinction state before her third defeat with the sacrifice of Murata Himeko. She is currently sealed inside of Kiana Kaslana, waiting for the moment to wake up again and destroy all civilization once and for all.
The game gives her the Devil arcana-card, representing someone who worked to demons and is able to control and manipulate their fate.
Frigid Empress[]
She wove her raiment from the polar aurora, forged stardust to make her crown, and transformed the eternal night into her personal palace. The Knight raised her lance against the raging drake. The Frigid Empress has finally graced this world with her presence.
The world is blanketed by pristine white snow as the Winter Queen walks in her private gardens. "Submit to me, human," she smiled while gazing at you from above.
Parasol Kaiserin[]
"My beach vacation must be furnished with sapphire blue parasols, ice cold lemon soda... wait... I'm above these pathetic human vacations! I'll never indulge in such pathetic stuff. NEVER!"
Void Drifter[]
"I understand, Miss Himeko. I'll end this story the way we want."
Equipment - Keys of the Void[]
Herrscher of the Void uses two pistol as her weapon of choice. It's a guided weapon system summoned from the Void Realms by the 2nd Herrscher upon awakening in the real world after 16 years dormant. The pistols are based off of Kiana Kaslana's original pistols.
These dual pistols do not fire bullets, but "commandments" that tear through the space-time fabric. K-423 is the perfect vessel designed by Otto for receiving the Herrscher of the Void when she returned. However, this vessel exerted a strong influence upon the powers of the Herrscher and altered her physical form as well.
According to Herrscher of the Void, she does not like these guns and prefer to use her own spears and energy to fight.

Herrscher Gems (Ruler Cores/Stones)[]
Gem of Death - Silence of Death[]
Core of the Lightning and Death
Core of Flames and Storm
1/2
The Gem of Death has the ability to create and destroy any living creatures, be they humans or animals. However, it comes with a price, one must understand the true meaning of death otherwise the gem will revive only the corpse of the person but not the soul. To revive a corpse, one need at least a material or objects (such clothes, photos or anything related to that person) to revive their physical bodies.
Seele Vollerei only had the stigmata of this Herrscher (years after Sirin's death) but it's unknown if she could fully control it.
Using the gem, Sirin can kill any living thing she desires. This power some times seems to be uncontrollable, causing it to burst out randomly in the form of a black gas, killing anything within a certain radius around her as shown with Galina's arrival in Russia. Its power can be used by touch, at a distance or simply willing it to happen. It can also manipulate death-force within the Herrscher in a way that allows them to shape the exhaling of the effect. These shapes can include bursts, streams, spheres, even a mist of it from the nose or mouth.
At times, it can emit a field around the Herrschers that kills every living thing that is in it (animals, humans, plants). The Herrscher may be able to decide what dies and what lives, or at least train to do so. As shown with Bella, one can avoid being killed by the black mist if they use gas mask.
When the 2nd Houkai War broke out, Sirin revived three of her childhood friends and gave Galina the Herrscher of Death. She was one of three Babylon experiment resurrected by Sirin and was given the gem "Silent Death" and was ordered to destroy in Novosibirsk, Russia to bring more power to Sirin. Her arrival in Russia caused the imminent death of 9 million people. On February 16, 2000, she was killed by Otto Apocalypse after he tried to convince her to revive his love interest, Kallen Kaslana but discovered she didn't possess the Gem of Death.
In Moon Shadow comic Kiana was infused with 6th gem, lost consciousness and got controlled by Sirin for a short period of time. Using the only gem she had in her possession Sirin tried to destroy Singapore but was defeated by the S-Valkyrie Fu Hua.
Gem of Lightning - Domination of Thunder[]
The gem of lightning, also known as Dominion of Thunder have the control over lightning to an unlimited level. She can create, shape and manipulate electricity, a form of energy resulting from the movement of charged particles (such as electrons or protons), allowing control over electric fields, all charge carriers (Ions, Electrons, Protons, and Positrons), electronics, and electromagnetic forces. Her ability also allow her to manipulate electromagnetic fields includes "electromagnetic field surrounding her body" and "electromagnetic pulses that destroy chemical bonds within the molecules".
She is able to manipulate light, heat and kinetic energy. A better explanation would be that she is able to harness the power of electricity, but since most of the powers of Houkai are based of commonly found matters in nature (e.g. fire, wind), the 'Lawmaker of lightning' is one of the most simply Ruler Core.
With the Gem of Lightning, she can manipulate all forms of electricity dwelling in all matter as charged particles. With the power over electricity existing in all matter (charged particles), she is able to control all matter in its state of form such as gas, liquid, solid and even plasma by controlling the electrons, protons and more that constitute all matter. Since everything is matter then this would permit the Herrscher to control everything by that theory. She may be able to use the charged particles to generate streams of electricity at her control.
Currently, the Herrscher of the Lightning is using Raiden Mei as her new host. After the young Mei was possessed by Herrscher of the Lightning, she was sealed by her father Ryoma. Because of its immense power, she couldn't freely manipulate the power of the thunder and had her personality split in two: the human personality and the Herrscher personality.
Her powers are stated to be in Apocalyptic-levels and can easily destroy an entire country in less than a day with insanely powerful lightnings, as well as shutting down all world's electric power plants.
Gem of Serenity - Ruler of Emptiness[]
Her first and original Gem. The Gem of Empty Time-Space, is a void space manipulation, used to create imaginary spaces for attack and defense. Her power is unique for being able to control two elements of the universe: space and time, and allows her to create an ideal fluid, converting actual space into her own void realm. For better words, she is capable of creating her own dimension and opening dimensional wormholes.
She open multiples portals to transfer people and other objects to anywhere in the globe. However, the transmission requires physical strength and it's very tiring if the physical strength and stamina of the Herrscher is insufficient for long-distance transmission. However, once Sirin received more gems she was capable of summoning dozens of dimensional portals at the same time and could easily open hundreds more without losing stamina of vital force.
She can also open several portals and transfer enemy attacks to anywhere she desires. She can transfer attacks any enemy to different environments, such as the sea floor, the ground or she can simply transfer them back to let her enemies to suffer damage from their attacks.
For defensive methods, she can create an imaginary screen layer in front of her to block enemy attacks. The limit of this barrier is said to increase according to the HW (Houkai Watts). The form of this shield appears as a light blue diamonds screens.
Gem of Wisdom/Logic - Ruler of the Knowledge[]
The Gem of Wisdom was originally the core of the First Lawman, Welt (Walter) Joyce. Welt Joyce was the first lawmaker in current civilization. He was one of the founders of Anti-Entropy alongside Einstein, Tesla, and Planck. In the Anti-Entropy visual novel, Welt Joyce was revealed to be responsible for the destruction of Berlin in 1952 after becoming a Herrscher. He suffered from amnesia after the incident. Schicksal organization later captured him to perform various experiments for 3 years before transferring him to the Imperial Research Institute Lab 42 in London where Einstein and Tesla were situated in and met him for the first time.
After his death, the Anti-Entropy created two clones of Welt, the two had a notable strength but were too psychotic to act like their original leader. After their death, Joachim Nokianvirtanen renamed himself to "Welt Young" and became the new First Herrscher of the civilization to carry on his name as the leader of Anti-Entropy years before the ascension of Sirin as the Second Herrscher. During the Second Houkai War, Sirin killed Welt in combat on the moon and ate his gem, granting her the powers of the First Herrscher.
After fully understanding the "interpretation" of a thing, the first Herrscher can use their wisdom to reproduce material things with their own power, including altering their appearance. This kind of reproduction can even become a kind of "muscle memory" - but it has been copied by the first Herrscher. The "blueprint" of the material or "thing" will be preserved and copied by the First Herrscher to be more efficiently used next time the power is used.
When the first Herrscher reached Master Reproduce Mastery, he can cast some skills without even needing the weapon on the hand (even if it's the God Key, aka, Core of the Ruler, as long as they know how it works and how it can be used, it can be reproduced easily).
Even even though Sirin gained his powers when she ate his gem, she couldn't control his Star of Eden weapon and the 9th Key of God. The only she could use from him was his logic and knowledge powers.
Gem of Flames - Contamination of Flame[]
The Herrscher of the Flames was an ancient Herrscher that represented the symbol of destruction in the Old World, 50,000 years ago but was rescued by God Kiana once the world ended. She had the ability to control molecular movement, in other words, the element of fire and heat. She was most powerful physical destructive Herrscher that turned the entire Australia into a sea of fire in just one week after her birth. Later, she was killed by Kevin and the core was made into Judgement of Shamash.
The Judgment of Shamash was a key that was built from the powerful Core of Destruction of Herrscher of the Flames. It was so powerful it was needed to be split into two. This gives one form of the Key, the Dual guns known as Judgement of Shamash. The two guns can be placed together and they will morph into the Greatsword of Shamash with altered abilities.
The Herrscher can create, shape and manipulate fire, the rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products, flame being the visible portion of the fire. Depending on the substances alight, and any impurities outside, the color of the flame and the fire's intensity will be different.
She can also cause burning pains and actual burns in others, in some cases their skin burns and injures others touching them, or in worst cases, create a fire of sea that can burn an entire town in seconds.
After Sirin was given the gem of flames, she gave part of its power to one of her revived childhood friends, Agata, one of the three Babylon experiment resurrected by Sirin. Her gem possessed the ability of the Fire Herrscher of the Old World but was weaker compared to Sirin's original power. Agata was ordered to destroy in Astana, Kazakhstan to bring more power to Sirin.
On February 16, 2000, during the 2nd Houkai War, at the junction Aral Sea, Agata was defeated by the S-Valkyrie Fu Hua from Schicksal and her corpse was recovered by Sirin.
Gem of Wind - Crave of Storm/Eager Storm[]
After forming a pact with the Houkai God, Sirin also gained the Gem of Wind, also known as Lord of Desire. With the Gem of Wind, Sirin was capable of creating blades of wind, sharp enough to cut entire buildings in half like a paper. However, its strongest point is the total control over wind in one single point, creating a powerful tornado.
She can create, shape and manipulate air; the common name given to the layer of atmospheric gases and various compounds (mostly oxygen and nitrogen) surrounding the planet Earth that is retained by Earth's gravity, and wind, movement of air relative to the surface of the planet. It is an important factor in determining and controlling climate and weather, and the generating force of most ocean and freshwater waves. Wind occurs because of horizontal and vertical differences in atmospheric pressure, and include breezes, squalls, gusts, whirlwinds, zephyrs, gales, tempests, and hurricanes. Since air cannot be seen by conventional methods, neither can the attacks and derivatives formed by/from it, making it an invisible and versatile weapon that is very difficult to block and dodge.
Controlling wind, Sirin is also able to manipulate the weather to her free will. However, she is never shown using her wind powers. Instead, when the 2nd Houkai War began she gave a fraction of her powers to Aphora, one of the three Babylon experiment resurrected by Sirin and was ordered to destroy in Oulu, Finland, to bring more power to Sirin. Because of Aphora's status as Pseudo-Herrscher, her abilities were considerably lower than Sirin's but was strong enough to create a legendary and destructive tornado that wiped out most of the country, killing tens of millions. On February 16, 2000, Aphora was killed by the S-Valkyrie Cecilia and saved the country.
After Sirin's defeat, her Wind Core was captured by Anti-Entropy and was fused in another person, causing the 4th Herrscher to destroy half of New Zealand. Years later, Wendy, an A-Rank Valkyria, and also Theresa's best student and had a high potential of becoming a S-Rank Valkyrja, was controlled by the will of Houkai and became the 4th Herrscher of the Wind.
Abilities[]
Sirin is the second ruler of the current era and she was the second lawmaker that had complete control over her abilities for now, like Walt. Her power allows her to create an ideal fluid, converting actual space into her own void realm. It also includes creating sized portals for attacking, defending, or both simultaneously as demonstrated by Sirin inside of K-423.
After her death, her core has been divided into four parts, some of those parts had created the third ruler Raiden Mei (Domination of Thunder), daughter of the CEO of Massive Electric and the fourth ruler Wendy (Crave of Storm), a brilliant A-rank Valkyrja that had high potential to be an S-rank but later got taken over by the will of the Houkai and became a Ruler.

Zombie Mind-Control: Aside from creating zombies like any other Herrscher, the Queen was capable of controlling the minds of her victims and minions using mind control to make Houkai beasts work for her and humans killed by her to become zombies and awake as her mindless minions to carry out her desires. Despite having the ability to control mind, Herrscher of the Void had limited range and could mind-control humans transformed in zombies or Houkai beasts, she couldn't control the minds of living things or her enemies.

In this world, she can erase whomever or whatever she desires from reality.
Elemental[]
Weather Control: The ability to control the weather to an unknown limit.

Subspace Lance: Her basic attacks which are ranged-melee attacks. In third sequence, it deals 100% of damage and summons a Space Core at the enemy's position. In the fifth sequence, it inflicts short Time Prison on the target enemy. Explosion epicenter pulls in enemies in small AOE, dealing damage and summons a Space Core at the enemy's position.
Genius-Level Intellect: During the Second Eruption era, Sirin was a 14-years old psychopath who relied more in her powers instead of planning strategies for her next moves, she was primarily a childish and reckless girl who had pride in her own powers and felt using intelligence to accomplish her objectives was unnecessary. This however, backfired everytime she was surprised or overpowered by her enemies who somehow always manage to find holes in her defenses, causing Sirin to angrily scream or randomly cursing her enemies. When she was revived in 2016, however, things changed as Sirin's mentality developed and now she had the mind of a 30-years old woman. Instead of only relying in her abilities, the Herrscher of the Void now was capable of not only using her physical abilities but also mental, granting her hidden genius-level intellect of a true calculist psychopath. Not only Herrscher of the Void was an effective planner and strategist but also had a vast knowledge of the world's physics thanks to her knowledge granted by the Houkai God, orchestrated cataclysmatic events, knew how to command a vast army of powerful beings, had knowledge in construction of offensive materials and every atom that composed the materials of the world, masterminded a plan against her host to set herself free while using the "wannabe-manipulators" who thought they were controlling her when in fact she was using their plans in her favor, has mastery in the creation of different life-forms using only her mind, manipulated and tricked countless Schicksal scientists throughout history, full knowledge of how human society works (from policy and religion) and could easily foresee the next moves of her enemies by merely reading their muscles. She also utilizes psychology to manipulate her opponents and can see through the weaknesses of certain techniques or their disadvantages.
Psychology Mastery: She has a penchant for provocation and power games. The stronger the resistance to her will, the more she seems to enjoy the test of wills. With insight rarely associated to violent antagonists, the Herrscher of the Void appears to both observe and appreciate the concerns and intentions of her opposite numbers. This gives her a serious psychological advantage in most contest of wills, as she is able to anticipate and pre-empt an enemy's plans. Not to mention, she knows how to use the feelings, dreams and memories of her enemies to her favor, breaking her opponents before she can even finish them off.
Leadership: Despite all her cruelty and evil that make her looks like a selfish monster, she was a driven, wise, intelligent and brilliant individual, who could take down whole armies without lifiting a finger of her own. Even after her defeat, she was extremely charming and even more seductive than before, so much that if other Herrschers could easily follow her. While treating her subordinates as disposable, she knew how to command an army of millions of Houkai beasts at the same time like if she shared her mind with them all, as such she was capable to coordinating precise attacks in different points with extreme accuracy.

I will never eat that garbage! Human clothing? Pathetic. Those ridiculous fabrics will never touch my divine skin! Human books? Pathetic. I will burn them when I have the chance. Human civilization? Pathetic, silly, ridiculous, arrogant, stupid and pathetic like the humans. I'm bored. I need to search for some amusement. The human food HOMU-CHOCO isn't pathetic as I thought. I guess I can stash some of this. This Vicc's Mystery swimsuit is not good as what I have, but it will look good in my wardrobe. 10 Shades of Yae... sheesh... how droll. Hmm... oh my... oh dear... I'm low on cash. I need to start saving and spend smart. Judah Delivery? Yeah. Lemon Soda. Extra ice. Bonsai cake? It's new? Alright. Put 1 on the menu. Vicc's Mystery released another swimsuit?

Last Words (dialogue - Old World)[]
“
Houraji: You can go now. Sirin. Close your eyes and sleep forever in the abyss of the oblivion because the world will go on without you. So my friends can finally rest in peace, so this world may be in peace forever. So may all people you hurt can finally go on in peace. Sirin: To think after years of work, my revenge failed. I lost to this ugly world... This is not what I wanted! Houraji: You choose this path. Now you'll die alone and regret for all your crime in the oblivion, for all eternity.
„
~ Herrscher of the Void/End's last words with Houraji (Guns Girl Z; Fire Moth DLC in Old World).
Last Words (dialogues - New World)[]
“
Theresa: I'm sorry... Sirin: Drop the facade, hypocrite. You're a liar. Just do it.
„
~ Sirin's last words with Theresa Apocalypse in her first false death (2nd Lawman comics; New World).
“
Herrscher: HAHAHA! Even with the same suit, being hit by so close by that many shots will reduce you to ash... W-What?! (Fu Hua appears behind Herrscher) Fu Hua: Too slow! (punchs Herrscher of the Void on the guts)
„
~ Herrscher of the Void's last words before her defeat (Moon Shadow Arc comics; New World).
“
Himeko: Kiana. After you wake up, you'll see that everything has changed. You'll find that this world is no longer good. Our ordinary life is gone. However. Don't give up. Never give up. Herrscher: DON'T BE TOO OVERCONFIDENT, HUMAN! Himeko: KIANA! RAISE YOUR HEAD! KEEP MOVING FORWARD! TO TURN THIS IMPERFECT STORY INTO WHAT YOU WANT IT TO BE! (strikes the Herrscher but misses the attack) Himeko: This is... the last lesson... Herrscher: You damned human! (uses her energy camp to push Himeko away but has a serum syringe inserted in her neck) Herrscher: NO! AAAAHHHHHH!!!
„
~ Herrscher of the Void in her defeat by the hands of Murata Himeko (Honkai Impact 3rd's Last Lesson; New World).
“
Herrscher: Hngh... you never give up, do you? You hid that Key... and it gave you this strange power. Relentless you may be, you'll never win. Not in th real world and definitely not in my mind. Your tenacity is admirable... at least you're a human I can have fun killing. You will die eventually. This girl was conceived for a single purpose: to serve as my mortal vessel. Her past and her name are built upon lies. She's nothing but a trap for a GOD. The girl you've been trying to save is nothing but a bag of fabricated falsehood. She's already given up. She'll not respond to your calls. Fu Hua: I've made a plenty of mistakes. I trusted in the wrong person. I've lost faith in mankind before... and I merely carried out my duties without thinking. But giving up is not my style. It simply isn't who I am... and it simply won't do when someone else placed so much faith in her.
„
~ Herrscher of the Void to Fu Hua before being sealed for the third time.
Trivia[]
Herrscher of the Void is often called "God Kiana" (as she's based on God Kiana of Guns Girl Z) and "Salty Tuna" because she's only available through Expansion Supply and she's very powerful. In the fanbase and inside of the studios the term "salty" is often used as meme and becomes official by the studios that months later released a series of online parody 4koma comics based on the game published by a MiHoYo staff member. One of the most laughable comic parody is Taste of a Liar from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
Kiana Kaslana, Herrscher of the Void's new vessel, has been shown to have noticeable homosexual tendencies. She blatantly shows affection for her fellow Valkyrie, Mei and when her father, Siegfried Kaslana's, lecherous behavior is described by Theresa, she mentions being "jealous" presumably because she also would enjoy similar activities. It's unknown if Herrscher of the Void is attached to some of these traces. At one point, she can be heard saying she is "interest in only girls", which may be a dark counterpart of Kiana's love for girls. While Kiana has homosexual traces for girls, Herrscher of the Void may be saying she has only interest in torturing and killing girls. It's debated if it's in a sexual way or simply a gender preference.
In Odd Drifter event, Parasol Kaiserin is a NEET, lazy and food-maniac self-proclaimed Queen of the Desert and is shown to be even more arrogant and haughty than her canon counterpart. Moreover, she has lewd hobbies of buying and reading adult doujinshis and magazines. Other dialogues confirmed she is a fan of 60 Shades of Yae, a straight parody of Fifty Shades of Grey, a 2015 American erotic romantic drama film that shows a college graduate woman who begins a sadomasochistic relationship with young business magnate. The story is more known for its SxM relationship between the couple. Among the fans and artists, Kallen Kaslana, Yae Sakura's crush is often portrayed as a submissive woman and becomes a "plaything" of Yae in many lewd arts considering it was Kallen who fell in love with Yae Sakura. Side events also represented Kallen to be the "passive" person of the relationship.
As Parasol Kaiserin, she is so obsessed with food that she unconsciously talks about food in every phrase she speaks.
Although she hates humanity, her dialogues in the bridge shows she still loves human food and goes as far to say it is the only good thing about humanity.
The name "Sirin" comes from a famous Slavic mythology story. Sirin is a mythological creature of Russian legends, with the head and chest of a beautiful woman and the body of a bird (usually an owl). According to myth, the Sirins lived in Vyraj or around the Euphrates River. These half-women half-birds are directly based on the Greek myths and later folklore about sirens. They were usually portrayed wearing a crown or with a nimbus. Sirins sang beautiful songs to the saints, foretelling future joys. For mortals, however, the birds were dangerous. Men who heard them would forget everything on earth, follow them, and ultimately die. People would attempt to save themselves from Sirins by shooting cannons, ringing bells and making other loud noises to scare the bird off. Later (17-18th century), the image of Sirins changed and they started to symbolize world harmony (as they live near paradise). People in those times believed only happy people could hear a Sirin, while only very few could see one because she is as fast and difficult to catch as human happiness. She symbolizes eternal joy and heavenly happiness. The legend of Sirin might have been introduced to Rus' by Persian merchants in the 8th-9th century. In the cities of Chersonesos and Kiev they are often found on pottery, golden pendants, even on the borders of Gospel books of tenth-twelfth centuries.
At the time she became a Herrscher, she was 14 years old. Chronologically, 16 years after the end of Second Houkai War, she should be 30 years old by now but since she is sealed inside of Kiana's body, who turns out to be a teenager, her current age biologically is 16 years old.
Her first costume, Winter Queen (or Frigid Empress) skin was heavily based in Elsa the Snow Queen's design of the 1995 animated film Snow Queen where she was portrayed as a villain rather than a heroine like in Frozen from the Disney's animated 3D film. The concept of both good and evil Ice Queen were heavily based in Elsa. In Kiana Kaslana's case, her outfit was designed from Elsa from the 2013's Frozen film (a more lighty and soft dress with lighter colors. Even the skin's name, Winter "Princess" drawn Elsa's status as "Princess" of Arandelle. On the other hand, Herrscher's skin is darker and more sophisticated, covering more of her skin unlike Winter Princess' dress that exposes more of Kiana's body to a sexualized point. The name of the skin, Winter "Queen" also known as "Frigid Empress" is based in the old villainous concept of Elsa from the 1995 animated film Snow Queen and from Christian Anderson's 1844 Danish fairy tale, Snow Queen, the original version of the Snow Queen where she is portrayed as the monarch/Tyrant of the ice lands.
The fact that Kiana and Sirin have the same skin is probably a mention to Disney's counterpart that transformed the villainous Elsa in a heroine of the 2013 Frozen.
The old concept of Herrscher of the Void's Frigid Empress was even more similar to the 1995 film although there were some cut and alterations in the dress for fan-service purposes. The old skin was discarded and was reworked to a new and original design while the old design became a Stigmata.
Herrscher of the Void's name was altered three times since her introduction in Guns Girl Z. At first her name was "Selina" but her name was later altered to "Celine" at the time she showed up in the Chapter 5 of the game. In the prequel 2nd Lawman her name was once again changed, now to "Sirin". The reason is speculated to give her a proper name for someone who was born in Belarus, on the borders of the Soviet Union.
In the previous script, Sirin was born in a poor village on the borders of Soviet Union during its final days when the nation found itself in its worst economic crisis period. In the new script, she was born in Belarus and was said to have lived a happy and normal life until the arrival of Schicksal.
Herrscher is a German term for Ruler.
The use of this title for her is grammatically incorrect as Herrscher is a masculine term. In German, she'd actually be called "Herrscherin of the Void" instead.
Judging by her dialogues in events, her favorite words are "pathetic," "insects," "worms" and "inferior humans."
According to many players, since Herrscher of the Void was released in the game, many players stated she was too overpower, so much that she won another 4koma comics showing her mere presence in the servers slapped the other characters' states. That is, until the release of Herrscher of the Reason (Bronya's new 2019 battlesuit) that was later considered to be the most overpowered character of the game.
From all antagonists of the franchise, Sirin is considered the villain with the most well-written character, most complex personality, the most famous female antagonist in the series and has the longest comic book where her background is explained in details. Her prequel comic book had 65 chapters that went from 2018 to 2020 while Otto Apocalypse had only 15+ chapters and Herrscher of the Corruption had 14 chapters (combined with GGZ manhua and Secret of the Divine Keys comic book).
Herrscher is the character with the highest number of MMD videos to date in Asian fanbase of Honkai Impact 3.
Many of Sirin and her Herrscher futuristic counterpart's quotes are altered according to the translations of each country. In Chinese version of her first quote in the OVA she says: "Humans, your existence is a mistake. War, cheating, jealously, greed. You once made me lose everything. But now I'll devour everything. Because I am the Houkai." but once it's translated to Japanese her quote is altered to: "Crumbling. The existence of humans is a mistake. I will devour everything because I am broken". Most of her quotes change depending on the translation of each country, which is why many Western players tend to "hate" the English translation of the game that changes many original concepts of the Chinese language.
Sirin's most notable trait are her yellow cross-pupils. Curious enough, these pupils appears whenever she takes over Kiana's body, marking her presence there. However, in the comic book Moon Shadow those pupils never appears in Kiana's eyes when Sirin dominated her mind—and she acted much like Sirin's arrogant, aggressive, vicious and sadistic personality while her awakening in the Chapter 5 (The Will of Herrscher Arc) of the game she was more cold, emotionless and aloof and had the cross-pupils since the first second she awakened again. This could be only a minor error on the part of the company or a primary stage of her possession.
The KR and Global version of the game lacks the "touch the Valkyrie on the home screen" feature, which, among other things, makes the achievement of raising their affection level difficult. The original CN server also loses it after a patch. While the SEA and JP servers still have it, a patch makes touching their chest or groin area not increase the affection level (even if they still react). Also, starting with the release of Herrscher of the Void, any newly released Valkyries will not come with the ability to touch their body.
Curious enough, Herrscher of the Void is the only female character to continue acting like a vicious and arrogant Goddess even if the affection for the captain is in 100%. Players questioned why she continues to be same evil and heartless character despite her "love affection" for the captain is at max level. The answer was obvious: "Herrscher of the Void is a void, devoid of all love and compassion". The only thing that may count as affection coming from Herrscher is when she refers the captain as "partner" and invites him to play a killing game with innocent lives.
New updates gave Herrscher more sexual appeal or at least a less aggressive personality. When her affection level is 100% and the captain touch some part of her body she will say something like:
"This is my first time. At least be gentle with me".
"If you insist so much..."
"Oh. You're so interesting. How about you become my new pet?"
God Kiana's nickname originates from GGZ. Since then, God Kiana is one of the most used term by GGZ and HI3 communities. This term is also one of many things whose birthplace track back to Gun Girl - School Day Z, both official and unofficial.
In the Chinese servers, Herrscher of the Void is the third most-played character of the game.
Herrscher of the Void is the third Herrscher to appear in the game, even though she is related to almost everything that is happening in the story. She only appears in the Chapter 5 in a simulation of the past.
Herrscher of the Void is the only antagonist of Honkai Impact 3rd to have near-success in almost all of her goals, including the near-extinction of mankind.
As Herrscher of the Void, her voice is much deeper, has robotic tone and a slight echo.
Many of Sirin's quotes are accompanied with ☆. It's implied her quotes with the usage of a star means she is probably surprised or happy enough to break out of her cold behavior.
Herrscher of the "Void" is played with "devoid of all emotions and compassion". Because of that, she represents emptiness in people's hearts or a similar term of nothingness.
In Chinese, Ruler or Herrscher (律化娜) sounds like NaCl (氯化钠). NaCI basically means "salt" in Chinese.
The overarching antagonist (named as The God) of the free-to-play, open-world action role-playing video game developed by miHoYo, Genshin Impact, was obviously based after Herrscher of the Void in appearance, personality and even powers as a whole in tribute to the original HoV, that needless to say, had an explosive popularity, being the one of the few characters of the game to be based after the original characters of Honkai Impact 3rd, but in particular, she was the only character so far be literally based after everything about the original villain. Because of her brute similarities with Kiana as a Herrscher, many Honkai players speculated that Genshin Impact was actually connected directly with the universe of Honkaiverse, using the Sea of Quanta as a justification to link the game's universe with the Honkaiverse as MiHoYo always did with many non-canon events.
Besides being one of the most mysterious character presented in the trailer so far, MiHoYo never leaked out any information about the character while all characters that already appeared in the manhua and trailer can be already explored by Internet users in the game's official site. In addition, while supposed to be treated as the main antagonist, she is actually the first villain to be encountered in the game; exactly at the game's opening cutscene.
