Stellar Blade: Blood Rain Characters
Only one Blood Rain character is confirmed so far — new heroine Evie — but the sequel shares a universe with a rich cast. This page tracks who's confirmed, and recaps the key figures of the original whose story Blood Rain builds on. Mild spoilers for Stellar Blade (2024) follow.
Evie — the new protagonist
ConfirmedThe playable lead of Blood Rain. A special-forces operative who fights with transforming gauntlets, Evie's name is an homage to Eve, and her precise connection to her predecessor is being kept secret. See our dedicated Evie page for the full breakdown.
The terrorist organization
ConfirmedEvie's unit is pursuing a terrorist organization within the city when the transformations erupt. Its identity, leadership and goals — and whether it's behind the outbreak — are unrevealed.
Expect this group to anchor the early plot, with the deeper sci-fi mysteries of the series likely layered underneath.
Eve — the original heroine
Series stapleThe protagonist of Stellar Blade (2024): a stoic soldier of the 7th Airborne Squad sent from the orbital Colony to retake Earth from the Naytiba, wielding the sword Blood Edge. Her journey through the last human city of Xion drove the original's story.
Whether Eve appears in Blood Rain is unconfirmed, but Evie's homage name and the shared universe keep her central to the sequel's mysteries.
Lily — engineer and ally
Series stapleA survivor-engineer Eve rescues in the original, Lily becomes her closest support and the emotional heart of the story; the player's bond with her even shapes the ending. She's a fan-favorite from the first game, with no confirmed role in Blood Rain.
Adam — the scavenger (spoilers)
Series stapleIntroduced as a scavenger who guides Eve to Xion, Adam is secretly one of the original's most pivotal figures, tied to the deepest truths about the Naytiba and the world. We'll keep specifics light here; the full reveal lives in our spoiler-aware Story and Series Guide pages.
The Naytiba
Series stapleThe original's enemies: techno-organic monsters that overran Earth and forced humanity into orbit, ranging from minions up to intelligent Alpha bosses and the Elder Naytiba. Blood Rain's citizens-turned-monsters strongly evoke them, suggesting the same biological horror is central to the sequel.
How the city outbreak relates to the Naytiba of the first game is one of Blood Rain's open questions.
