Xipe is an overarching protagonists of the 2023 space fantasy Honkai Star Rail.
THEY are an Aeon who represent the path of Harmony. THEY are the deity of The Family of Penacony and archenemy of Ena.
Appearance
Xipe is a giant humanoid deity with serene periwinkle-skinned humanoid with three faces with one in the middle, one on the left side of THEIR head and the third on the right side of THEIR head. The faces are framed with lengthy white curtain bangs and are each adorned with a circlet. Xipes' extensive swathe of hair is colored white with a twinkling dark purple ombre. A halo like amalgamation of bright colors shines behind THEIR head.
The rest of THEIR body appears to be made of scattering puzzle pieces, is covered by a form-fitting raiment that is decorated with blue and purple colors that match the cosmos. Their skirt is really long that it flows past their feet and their neck and torso are wrapped firmly in a lattice of gold decorations.
Personality
As their title suggests, Xipe desires Harmony across the universe. THEY gaze to and share their power only to those who also walk the path of harmony. THEY hate those who would cause harm to the universe like Ena, The Swarm, Tayzzyronth and Sunday.
However, as Sunday points out. Neither Harmony nor Order could tolerate discord and clashes — since THEIR Paths are similar.
Background
In the year 13AE, Xipe was forced to fight against Tayzzyronth and The Swarm during the Swarm Disaster. It was around this time that Xipe absorbed Ena, the Aeon of Order; because THEIR Paths are overlaps each other, and Harmony overshadows Order. Xipe was later able to seal Tayzzyronth alongside fellow Aeons Aha, HooH, Qliphoth, and Akivilli.
After sealing Tayzzyronth, Xipe and THEIR chosen ones formed a harmonious "Family" composed of members from various civilizations and worlds. They are the closest family there is and believe there should never be contradictions or noisy disputes. Only with eternal love and smiles will the universe become a harmonious whole. The Family frequently calls out to other worlds with their song, encouraging them to embrace Harmony. The Family will celebrate each new world that accepts the blessing of Xipe, and work even harder at praising the Aeon's kindness. The Family has never known any world that grew weary of the singing and voluntarily abandoned the Path of Harmony.
Game Story
Trivia
