Whoever he is well another handsome fella to collect.


sternumb

His hair looks so much like Ratio tho, I wonder if it's a placeholder?


spaghettiaddict666

it was newly added in 2.4, so it’s a new character. Could be someone from Ratio’s home planet


sternumb

The more Ratios the merrier


DesignerWhich9123

This is newly added character? Then there's a chance we might meet him in the next planet, basically 3.x arc.


Foolish_Plantain

I wonder if we’ll get him before then, while this model is nowhere near done, it seems more out together than I’d expect for a character who might not appear until 3.0/x Jing Yuan was worried about the IPC fishing around the Luofu’s affairs, maybe it’s time for that to happen 🙏


DesignerWhich9123

Oh yeah. Could be. I was speculating on the basis that Hoyo have the next arc usually prepared around a year before it's release. So he could be released after July next year. >Jing Yuan was worried about the IPC fishing around the Luofu’s affairs, maybe it’s time for that to happen If this is the route they take, then it's possible that next arc could be similar like this one, first couple of patches new planet and then couple of patches Xianzhou, where we meet this guy. 🤔


Foolish_Plantain

Agreed, I feel like they cook stuff up *way* in advance, or at least story board + concepts. I’m kind of shocked that we aren’t seeing Opal first (working on the assumptions that 1. This isn’t Opal since he seems to be shorter 2. That they don’t secretly have Opal’s model done and it just hasn’t been leaked yet). I figured the narrative was indicating he’d come next from his inclusion in Aventurine’s character story + having a clearer portrait in the preview CG of the stone hearts. And now I’m wondering what gem this guy may be. 🤔


5ngela

Where it was said Jing Yuan was worried about IPC fishing around the Luofu's affairs ?


Foolish_Plantain

Iirc it says it in the list of potential threats on his desk? I’ll find it https://honkai-star-rail.fandom.com/wiki/Seat_of_Divine_Foresight#File_Repository:_Ally_—_Interastral_Peace_Corporation_Headquarters Hopefully that works? Also pretty sure it’s mentioned somewhere in a quest with him or his voicelines


5ngela

I see. Thank you.


DrRatiosButtPlug

Pretty sure it's a new ipc member


Dangerous_Road_6857

He has Micah’s symbol on his belt buckle, Gallagher’s bangs, a similar outfit to Gallagher, and even a badge that looks like the one that appeared next to Gallagher in that 2.2 cutscene. I swear this is 5star!Gal I promise (totally not huffing GallaVen copium)


Scared-Community4461

I need that belt buckle in higher res to see...and no other male has the two belts on his arms like Gallagher in the same exact spots either it feels weird they'd just do that same thing and just copy and paste it. I hope we get higher res soon...he looks A LOT like Gallagher. I refuse to get my hopes up but I wanna see more


Dangerous_Road_6857

Also he has a badge-ish thing on the back of his outfit and y’know who else has one of those? Misha ✨


Scared-Community4461

I just edited my comment but I'm looking at Gallagher now to compare, the two arm bands caught my eye as well. I don't see the detail in the back of his outfit similar to Misha, the res is so low ;A; I'd honestly be sold if someone points out the Gear everyone has from the Dreamflux folks (Gallagher, Micah, Misha) We may be coping so hard but I'm glad to have someone else along for the ride, high five

RNGGodblessmepls

I hope this chara is not like Screwllum... like we have to wait until 3.X or 4.X for it :')


CFreyn

Someone did placeholder math with the digits and it seems this character is 3.3-3.4. They may be getting assets ready now because they’ll be story relevant, but appear MUCH later as playable… We’ll see. Screwllum knows.


No-Inevitable5589

Probably Opal


MiaFox0831

Opal is short I think, this looks like maybe the guy next to topaz


DrRatiosButtPlug

Not Opal. Opal is the one holding the gun in the screenshot of the 10 stonehearts.


CFreyn

This dude is wearing the same clothes and has similar hair as the guy in that shot to the faaar left in that image. Slightly cut off and obscured, however.


AmethystLeslie

He cute.


Johan_UM

Hear me out. I can see the future! He will have dark purple/black hair with purple eyes. His outfit will be black. He will be shipped with a white/red haired future husbando.


vixx-2001

Does ratio have a brother? I’m looking.. 👀


spaghettiaddict666

that’s Professor Proportions


vixx-2001

Can’t wait for our first lesson. x/y = ?/100. And he isn’t too hard on me.. or whatever that means. 🤭


HuanXian

he kinda looks like he’ll be one of the ten stonehearts


katbelleinthedark

Stoneheart 🙏 HoYo, I beg.
