HSR Castorice: Leaked Kit, Materials, Signature Light Cone

Update: Castorice’s kit has been updated based on the latest HSR 3.2 Beta leaks on March 13, 2025.

Castorice is the most hyped character in Honkai Star Rail’s Amphoreus trailblazing arc. She played a huge role in the initial story arc, helping the Trailblazer navigate the old land of Castrum Kremnos in order to find the secret behind the Strife Titan’s immortality. Castorice has showcased a unique ability to kill enemies just by her mere touch or presence, hinting at a very powerful kit once she becomes playable. With Castorice’s Drip Marketing released, here is everything we know about Castorice’s kit, release date, rarity, element, and path in Honkai Star Rail.

Honkai Star Rail Castorice Drip Marketing

Castorice’s drip marketing has released by Hoyoverse and it reveals interesting information on the beloved Chrysos Heir of Amphoreus. She is named the ‘Servant of Death’, Castorice has the divine authority of Hand of Shadow. Thanatos is also mentioned in her Divine Authority but with a question mark, suggesting there is much more to be revealed later in the story.

The land that reveres death, Aidonia, where snow falls endlessly, has today drifted into a sweet slumber.
Castorice, daughter of the River of Souls, Chrysos Heir in search of “Death” Coreflame, sets forth. You must guard the lament of souls and embrace the solitude of destiny.
— Life and death are but a journey. When butterfly alights on the branch, what withers will bloom anew.

We already guessed that Castorice would pursue Death’s Coreflame during the Amphoreus arc, which is finally confirmed in her Drip marketing.

Honkai Star Rail Castorice Release Date

With Castorice’s Drip Marketing being released, it’s confirmed that she will be released in Honkai Star Rail 3.2, likely during the first phase. If everything goes according to the normal 42-day version cycle, then Castorice will be released around April 08, 2025. She will likely be on the banners alongside Anaxa, the other 5-star character in HSR 3.2. With so many high-profile characters featuring in version 3.2, you should take a look at the HSR codes list to get some extra Stellar Jades for gacha pulls.

HSR Castorice Leaked Kit

Castorice’s kit has been leaked from HSR 3.2 Beta and posted on Reddit. Here, I have compiled all the sources to create Castorice’s leaked kit. As it is still early in development, her kit will likely change a lot over the next few weeks. Bookmark this post to constantly stay updated on her kit:

• Unique Ability (Sanctuary of Mooncocoon): After obtaining Castorice or when Castorice is in the current team, receive the following effect: In battle, when an ally character receives a killing blow, all allies that received a killing blow in this action enter the “Mooncocoon” state. Characters in “Mooncocoon” temporarily delay becoming downed and can take 1 action normally. After the action, if they receive healing or have a Shield before their next turn, “Mooncocoon” is removed. Otherwise, they will be downed immediately. This effect can be triggered 1 time per battle.
• Basic Attack (Lament, Deadsea’s Ripple): Deals Quantum damage to a single target equal to 50% of Castorice’s Max HP.
• Skill (Silence, Wraithfly’s Caress): Consumes 30% of all allies’ Max HP. Deals blast Quantum damage equal to a 50% of Castorice’s Max HP to the main target and 30% to the adjacent targets. If current HP is insufficient, this ability will reduce HP to 1. Once Deathwing is on the battlefield, this Skill becomes Boneclaw, Doomdrake’s Embrace instead.
• Enhanced Skill (Boneclaw, Doomdrake’s Embrace): Consumes 40% of all allies’ current HP, except Deathwing, and then Castorice and Deathwing launches a Joint Attack on the target, dealing AoE Quantum damage equal to 24% and 42% of Castorice’s Max HP.
• Ultimate (Doomshriek, Dawn’s Chime): Summons the memosprite Deathwing and advances its action by 100%. At the same time, creates the Territory “Lost Netherland,” which decreases all enemies’ All Type Resistance by 20%. If the Damage boost from Castorice’s Talent is active, the effect is extended to Deathwing. Deathwing has 140 Speed and a set Max HP equal to 100% of max “Newbud”. After Deathwing acts 3 times or when its HP is 0, it disappears and dispels the territory “Lost Netherland”.
• Talent (Desolation Across Palms): Newbud’s maximum is equal to 100 times the sum of all characters’ levels on the battlefield. For each point of HP lost by all allies, Castorice gains 1 point of Newbud. It also increases Castorice’s and Deathwing’s Damage dealt by 20%, stacking up to 3 times, and lasts for 3 turns. When Newbud reaches its maximum, Castorice’s Ultimate can be used. When Deathwing is on the field, “Newbud” cannot be gained, and for each point of HP lost by all allies (excluding Deathwing), Deathwing recovers the equal amount of HP.

• Technique (Wail, Death’s Herald): Enters the Netherveil state for 20 seconds. In this state, enemies are unable to approach Castorice on their own. Entering battle by attacking enemies in this state will summon Deathwing at the start of the combat. Deathwing starts with current HP equal to 50% of max Newbud. After entering the battle, it consumes 40% of all allies’ current HP and advances Deathwing’s action by 100%. After entering battle and before summoning Deathwing, Castorice gains “Newbud” equal to 30% of the maximum “Newbud.”
• Memosprite Skill 1 (Claw Splits the Veil): Deals AoE Quantum damage equal to 24% of Castorice’s Max HP.
• Memosprite Skill 2 (Breath Scorches the Shadow): Consumes HP equal to 25% of Deathwing’s max HP and deals Quantum Damage to all enemies equal to 30% / 34% / 38% of Castorice’s Max HP. When HP is insufficient, it will drop to a limit of 1, and using this ability will not end the turn. Using this ability repeatedly will enhance it, lasting until the Deathwing disappears. When HP is less than or equal to 25%, using this ability will actively trigger the Talent ability effect of “Wings Sweep the Ruins.”
• Memosprite Skill 3 (Wings Sweep the Ruins): Consumes all HP and deals 6 instances of Damage, with every instance dealing Quantum Damage equal to 50% of Castorice’s Max HP to one random enemy unit.
• Memosprite Talent 1 (Mooncocoon Shrouds the Form): Deathwing acts as “Backup” for allies when it is on the field. After allies take damage and their current HP reduces to a minimum of 1, Deathwing will start bearing the Damage received at 500% of the original Damage until Deathwing disappears.
• Memosprite Talent 2 (Roar Rumbles the Realm): decreases Damage dealt by all allies by 10% for 3 turns.
• Memosprite Talent 3 (Wings Sweep the Ruins): When Deathwing disappears, deals 6 instances of Damage, with every instance dealing Quantum damage equal to 40% of Castorice’s Max HP to one random enemy unit. At the same time, restores HP to all allies by equal to 6% of Castorice’s Max HP plus 800.
• Trace 1 (Contained Dark Tide): While Castorice or Deathwing’s respective HP is at 50% or higher, increases their respective Speed by 40%.
• Trace 2 (Inverted Torch): While Deathwing is not on the field, 100% of excess healing for each ally target will restore an equal amount of Newbud. While Deathwing is on the field, the excess healing will restore an equal amount of HP for Deathwing. Each restoration cannot exceed 15% of max “Newbud” / Deathwing’s Max HP.
• Trace 3 (Where the West Wind Dwells): When Deathwing disappears, restores HP for all allies equal to 10% of Castorice’s Max HP plus 250.
• Trace Stat Boosts: 18.6% Crit Rate Boost, 14.4% Quantum Damage Boost, 13.3% Crit Damage Boost

HSR Castorice Signature Light Cone Leaks

Castorice’s signature Light Cone — Make Farewells More Beautiful, has also been leaked from the recent HSR 3.2 beta leaks. Here are all the details we currently know about it:

• Rarity: 5-star
• Path: Remembrance
• HP: 1270
• Attack: 529
• Defense: 396
• Effect: Increases the wearer’s Max HP by 30%.

When the wearer’s memosprite disappears, advances the wearer’s action by 12%. This effect can only trigger up to 1 time, and the trigger count resets every time the wearer uses Ultimate.

Honkai Star Rail Castorice Eidolons Leaks

Castorice’s Eidolons have also leaked alongside her kit in HSR. Here are all her leaked eidolons:

• E2 (Crown on Wings of Bloom): After summoning Deathwing , Castorice gains 2 stacks of Ardent Will. A maximum of 2 stacks can be possessed at any given time and can be used to offset the Deathwing’s HP consumption when using the Memosprite Skill while advancing Castorice’s action by 100%. The next Enhanced Skill deals 100% more damage.
• E3 (Pious Pilgrim, Dance in Doom): Ultimate Level + 2, Basic Attack Level + 1, and Memosprite Talent level + 1.
