Background

Tesla is one of Schicksal’s founders and previously fought alongside Siegfried Kaslana during the Second Honkai War. She knows that, after his defection, Siegfried continued operating with Schicksal’s assistance to suppress the Honkai Beast genes within his body. 23 49

She works in a long-standing partnership with Einstein, sharing research, mecha development, and responsibility for the children and organizations around them. Tesla considers Einstein and Welt part of her family. 32

Appearance

Tesla has red hair and red eyes; her hair is later described as smooth and flowing down her back. 21 418

• Red hair, which Lin Nai associates with her “Lobster Doctor” nickname.
• Red eyes, noted to be slightly less vivid than Lin Nai’s. 21
• Often appears in workshop gear or alongside self-built robots and mecha. 415 418

Personality

Tesla is an excitable, proud scientist who becomes intensely focused whenever she discovers unfamiliar energy, technology, or a potentially useful invention. During Lin Nai’s first display of photon energy, she initially wanted to observe at close range despite the Honkai Beast threat. 21

Her confidence is frequently paired with impulsiveness. She is blunt, competitive, and prone to profane outbursts—especially when Otto, damaged mecha, or her age are mentioned. Einstein characterizes her as a “hot-blooded idiot”: highly talented and creative, but lacking emotional restraint. 34 60 427

Tesla is also messy and avoids housework whenever possible; she bought a villa with personal savings largely to avoid packing and cleaning. Nevertheless, she persists through setbacks, including failed experiments, damaged equipment, and an overheating pair of running shoes during a race. 48 49 422

Abilities & Skills

Mecha Engineering

Tesla specializes in the design, construction, and refinement of Schicksal and Anti-Entropy mecha.

• Co-designed the exterior of the Titan and Thunder God Mecha series with Einstein. 58
• Developed the Explosive Rattlesnake, a Thunder God-derived unit with optimized weapons and explosive capabilities. 58 59
• Designed the Explosive Rattlesnake primarily as a mining machine, using delayed explosives to accelerate resource extraction; it can also be used in combat. 59
• Considered a transforming vehicle mode for the Yu Lei Mecha after Lin Nai suggested it as a solution to its poor mobility. 59
• Treats mecha as expensive research assets and strongly objects to Lin Nai using them for combat testing or dismantling them. 34 37

Scientific Analysis

Tesla conducts dangerous-field research with Einstein, especially concerning Honkai energy and anomalous technology.

• Investigated the purple Honkai serum recovered from an underground base. 24 47
• Determined that the serum activates and restructures dormant Stigmata fragments, temporarily increasing resistance to Honkai energy. 47
• Identified its fatal flaw: users unable to withstand the process may die or become mindless husks, while even successful users only gain brief power before becoming Maniacs. 47
• Helped examine and combat-test Lin Nai, but could not reconcile his ordinary physical results with his overwhelming combat ability. 33 34 37
• Spent two years with Einstein attempting to build a means of retrieving Lin Nai from the Sea of Quantum. 95 110

Applied Inventions

Tesla develops technology outside conventional combat mecha.

• Created fully automated makeup robots that can reproduce selected looks and perform styling while the user sleeps. 418
• Built experimental running shoes with jet boosters and a stated 75% performance boost. 420
  • The shoes overheated in a high-temperature race sector, forcing Tesla to continue on foot. 422
• Jointly modified the Hyperion’s deck field with Einstein, allowing people to stand and speak on deck under lunar conditions. 433

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Personal mecha — Tesla maintains and tests her own experimental units; she is notably protective of them. 24 37
• Explosive Rattlesnake — Mining-focused explosive mecha that can function in combat. 59
• Jet-assisted running shoes — Experimental footwear with a 75% boost; vulnerable to overheating. 420 422
• Automated makeup robots — Programmable styling robots created for convenience, though Tesla prefers manual makeup for creative control. 418
• Steel gauntlet and giant robot — Used while demonstrating the “power of technology.” 415

Relationships

• Einstein — Research partner, fellow Schicksal founder, and closest companion. They constantly tease and argue with each other, but Tesla considers Einstein family. 24 25 32
• Lin Nai — Initially a subject of Tesla’s curiosity due to his unfamiliar energy and abnormal combat power. Their relationship develops into frequent scientific cooperation and mutual teasing. 21 25 37
• Kiana Kaslana — Tesla initially helps arrange Kiana’s future, later becomes involved in the search for Siegfried, whose condition she carefully conceals from Kiana. 21 23
• Bronya — Tesla wants to equip Bronya with a mech for self-defense and later takes pride in Bronya’s reckless driving habits. 64 160
• Welt Yang — A trusted colleague and family-like figure. Tesla recruits his assistance for construction and relies on him for combat testing when mecha are too costly to risk. 32 34 116
• Cocolia — Tesla views Cocolia as excessively radical and is uneasy around her despite acknowledging the children rescued through the orphanage operation. 21 24
• Raiden Ryoma — A respected Schicksal Executor and ME Corp. founder who assists Tesla and Einstein with mecha manufacturing in Changkong City. 49 58
• Tesla Zero — An Armed Doll created by Lin Nai to replicate Tesla’s traits and serve as an assistant, partly to keep Seele away from Tesla’s frequent laboratory explosions. 114 115
• Otto — Tesla openly despises Otto and reflexively blames him for suspicious incidents. 47 60

Major Arcs

• Cocolia Orphanage incident — Tesla and Einstein encounter Lin Nai, Kiana, and Bronya during a Honkai Beast attack. Tesla’s interest in Lin Nai’s photon energy leads to the group’s eventual cooperation with Schicksal. 21 23
• Honkai serum investigation — Tesla accepts Lin Nai’s request to analyze a dangerous purple serum and later identifies its Stigmata-based effects and catastrophic side effects. 24 47
• Schicksal laboratory testing — Tesla helps conduct Lin Nai’s physical and combat examinations, becoming increasingly unable to quantify his abilities. 32 34 37
• Changkong City mecha development — Tesla and Einstein visit ME Corp. to test new components and unveil Tesla’s Explosive Rattlesnake design. 47 58 59
• Sea of Quantum rescue research — Tesla works with Einstein for two years on a machine intended to retrieve Lin Nai from the Sea of Quantum. 95 110
• Rogue mecha investigation — Tesla investigates mechs operating without pilots or detectable energy sources, only for Wendy to destroy the specimen before Tesla can study it. 371
• Stamina race — Tesla competes using experimental jet shoes, later teams up with Bella through teleportation items, and is ultimately thrown as “Spinning Charge Red Tesla” during an attack on Durandal. 420 422 424

Notable Quotes

“Follow me, and I’ll give you candy.”
— Tesla attempting to recruit Lin Nai 23

“This is the power of technology! Supporting this genius is supporting science!”
— Tesla 415

Trivia

• Tesla and Einstein both claim to be 17 years old when asked; Tesla refuses to elaborate further. 30
• Einstein states that Tesla has been arrested more than 300 times for speeding and reckless driving. 34
• Tesla’s MOBA performance was once recorded as 0/9 shortly before another defeat. 64
• She blew up a kitchen while attempting to make breakfast, forcing Lin Nai to perform emergency repairs. 53
• Einstein reports that laboratory efficiency increased by roughly a week while Tesla was away competing in the race. 427
