Honkai Star Rail 1.5 Banners
There are three new playable characters making their debut in version 1.5: Huohuo, Argenti, and Hanya, with the 5-Star Silver Wolf returning.
Phase 1 of the 1.5 Banner schedule begins with Huohuo, a new 5-Star Wind attacker of The Abundance path in her Bloom in Gloom Banner. Huohuo's Phase 1 Banner should run from Wednesday 15th November until 6th December.
The boosted 4-Star characters on Huohuo's Banner are:
- Dan Heng (Wind, The Hunt)
- Arlan (Lightning, The Destruction)
- Serval (Lightning, The Erudition)
In Phase 2 of version 1.5 we then have Argenti, a new 5-Star Physical attacker of The Erudition Path, featured in his Thorns of Scented Crown Banner. Silver Wolf's Contract Zero Banner runs alongside Argenti in Phase 2, and Silver Wolf is a Quantum attacker of The Nihility path.
New Physical attacker of The Harmony path, the 4-Star Hanya, will also be featured on Argenti's and Silver Wolf's Banners during Phase 2. These Phase 2 Banners run from Wednesday 6th December until Tuesday 26th December.
All of the boosted 4-Star characters on Argenti's and Silver Wolf's Banners are:
- Hanya (Physical, The Harmony)
- Lynx (Quantum, The Abundance)
- Asta (Fire, The Harmony)
In summary, all of the new characters and returning 5-Star characters you can Warp on during 1.5 are:

In addition to these new characters, we're getting two new 5-Star Light Cones in the Brilliant Fixation Banner. Huohuo's signature weapon 'Night of Fright' of The Abundance path will run alongside her character Banner in Phase 1 of version 1.5. Argenti's signature 'An Instance Before A Gaze' of The Erudition path will then run alongside his Banner in Phase 2.
The Bygone Reminiscence Light Cone Banner features a rerun of Silver Wolf's 5-Star 'Incessant Rain' Light Cone during Phase 2 of version 1.5.

A Foxian Tale of the Haunted

However, there are limited-time rewards that only last until Monday 25th December.
Told across five chapters, this spooky event involves investigating the mysteries and urban legends of the new Fyxestroll Garden area on the Xianzhou Luofu by assembling a ghost-hunting squad!
During the story, you also get to take charge of Guinafen's social media in a management mini-game that unlocks more stories and events as you complete its challenges.
Complete enough limited-time missions, and you can get the 'Hey, Over Here' Nihility path Light Cone as a reward. Other rewards include Self Modelling Resin, Stellar Jade, Tracks of Destiny, and Relic Remains.
Boulder Town Super League - Martial Exhibition
The Martial Exhibition event starts Wednesday 6th of December and ends on Monday 25th December. You need to have completed the 'Gladiator' Adventure Mission and up to Chapter 1, Part 3 'Jarilo-VI - Silent Galaxy' to take part in the event.
Just like the first Super League event, Martial Exhibition will be added to the Conventional Memoir events list when it ends, so you can take part even if you miss its initial run. However, you won't get as many rewards for completing challenges.
This combat challenge event returns to the underground of Belobog, pitting you against waves of enemies in the Fight Club. Choose your buffs wisely to achieve victory and earn rewards like Stellar Jade, Tracks of Destiny, Relic Remains, Credits, and Traveler's Guide. The Fragmented Record of Belobog Ancient Martial Arts item is only available during Martial Exhibition's initial event period.
Stellar Shadowseeker
The Stellar Shadowseeker event starts Friday 1st of December and ends on Monday 11th December, and you need to be at least Trailblaze Level 21 to take part.
March 7th needs the Trailblazer's help to restore her damaged photos by returning to where she took the picture and retaking the exact same image. You can earn rewards like Stellar Jade, Tracks of Destiny, Traveler's Guide, Destruction path materials, and Refined Aether for taking part.
