Background / History
Amnesia in Changkong City
Yomi awakens in Changkong City with severe amnesia, retaining only fragments of her past. Sora takes her in, and Yomi immediately demonstrates overwhelming combat instincts by effortlessly killing a Honkai Beast while protecting her new companion. An intense Honkai-energy reaction coincides with her appearance, though Schicksal dismisses it as transient. 45
Raven tests Yomi by ordering her to clear half of several nearby Honkai Beast strongholds within two hours. Yomi returns after 20 minutes, having eliminated every target and collected more than a dozen Honkai Emperor cores. Raven subsequently recommends her to World Serpent, where Grey Serpent identifies an unanalysable power in her genes and accepts her as an executive. 47 48
World Serpent and St. Freya Academy
While working with World Serpent, Yomi accompanies Raven to London to interfere with Schicksal’s pursuit of the Second Divine Key. At the British Museum, she subdues Stan—a cat-like Honkai Beast she mistakes for her lost cat—and assists the S-rank Valkyrie Rita Rossweisse against it. 51 52
Grey Serpent then arranges for Yomi to enter St. Freya Academy under the identity of an A-rank Valkyrie and practical-lesson teacher. Her first demonstrations far exceed that cover identity: she instantly defeats simulated Emperor-class Honkai Beasts Parvati and Ganesha, the latter through her newly manifested Death and Decay domain. 52 54 55
Her resemblance and bloodline response to Raiden Mei initially lead Yomi to believe she may be Mei’s mother. The truth is later clarified: Raiden Mei and Elysia are Yomi’s biological parents, making Mei her mother despite Yomi’s apparently greater physical age. 55 106 110
Elysium Everlasting and recovered heritage
Otto captures Yomi by threatening Raiden Mei, bringing her into a world bubble where Elysia’s residual consciousness temporarily acts through Yomi’s body. This reveals Elysia’s continued connection to Yomi and begins Yomi’s journey into Elysium Everlasting. 68 69
Within Elysium, Yomi meets the Flame-Chasers, inherits Signets, and learns that Elysia is her biological mother and a memory fragment from 50,000 years ago. Elysia’s remaining consciousness maintains the mixed powers inside Yomi and fears that the void within her will consume her if she cannot find her own meaning. 78 81 82
Yomi eventually unseals Jizo Mitama during a duel with Kevin. The weapon restores memories connected to “Rosia,” the Sea of Quanta, and the Life Cultivator, helping Yomi understand why her existence and consciousness are unstable. 93 94
Nihility crisis
After recovering further memories, Yomi’s innate domain evolves into Nihility. As she severs the meanings connecting her to reality, her hair turns gray-white, her emotions fade, and her domain spreads across two Far Eastern cities. She considers self-destruction preferable to becoming a danger to humanity. 103 104 105 107
Kevin and Raiden Mei enter the domain to save her. Mei’s intervention allows Honkai energy to force a Herrscher transformation, but a new Honkai consciousness takes over Yomi’s body. The consciousnesses of Hei-@@REF_ENTITY_4031881@@ and Bai-@@REF_ENTITY_4031881@@, preserved inside the flower Yomi had given Mei, seize control long enough for Yomi to destroy the intruder and return to herself. 109
Afterward, Yomi integrates Void and Origin into a usable authority rather than fully surrendering to Nihility. She distributes portions of her consciousness among the Life Cultivator, Herrscher ascension trials, and Origin’s inheritance, leaving a consciousness core able to continue advising Mei. 110 111 112 172
Appearance
Yomi is a dark purple- or purplish-black-haired young woman with striking pink-purple eyes that appear to possess a natural halo. Her usual demeanor is cold and unfocused, though her presence becomes markedly oppressive when she fights. 45 49 59
- Her hair may be tied so that part of it covers her left eye. 47
- She wears a multicolored flower on her chest, originally red, black, blue, and white; it acts as a medium for several of her powers. 50 66
- She normally carries two sealed Divine Keys at her waist. 66 81
- Within her Nihility domain, her hair becomes gray-white with black roots, while red begins to stain her purple-pink eyes. 103
Personality
Despite her amnesia, Yomi is decisive, efficient, and instinctively protective. Raven observes an apparent contradiction in her: Yomi projects a detached, pessimistic, hermit-like air, yet acts with a reliability that makes others want to depend on her. 47
Yomi is direct rather than evasive, especially when confronting misunderstandings about her relationship with Mei. She is also considerate of others’ safety, adjusting Mei’s device to let her use more of the Herrscher of Thunder’s power without harming herself and later seeking to strengthen Mei before sending her to Elysium. 60 86 88
She has a notably gentle side around children, animals, and vulnerable people. She comforts Kiana, removes Bronya’s malfunctioning bio-chip, protects Elysia throughout the Elysium trials, and regards Rosia and Little Hei-@@REF_ENTITY_4031881@@ with protective affection. 56 64 73 97
Yomi’s presence causes others to develop an unusual reliance on her, a phenomenon described as her “Max Childhood Dependence” mutation. It reflects her mental state, appearance, and instinctive tendency to become a dependable protector rather than a deliberately activated ability. 97 120
Abilities & Skills
Superhuman Physical Ability and Swordsmanship
Yomi possesses extraordinary strength, speed, reflexes, and combat intuition even without relying on her weapons.
- Her perception makes ordinary Valkyries appear to move at roughly half speed. 59
- She clears entire Honkai Beast strongholds in minutes and defeats Emperor-class Honkai Beasts with sheathed sword strikes. 47 54
- Her sword aura can travel nearly 100 meters before dissipating. 67
- With Jizo Mitama drawn, she outpaces and suppresses Kevin in his normal state. 94
- She is able to injure Durandal severely while wielding her sealed Divine Keys. 68
Domain
Yomi’s domain is the source and organizing medium for several of her powers.
- Death and Decay — manifests black-and-red petals, a deathly aura, and destructive sword attacks; first appears against Ganesha. 55
- Annihilation and Rebirth — powers stored and released through the flower on her chest. 66
- Other Shore · Yomi · Nihility — gradually strips everything entering the domain of vitality and meaning before annihilating it. 103
- Within the domain, external energy progressively becomes inert and is absorbed into the domain’s influence. 106
- Limit: Nihility also severs Yomi’s own connections to the world, dulling her emotions and driving her toward self-collapse. 104 105 107
Origin and Void Authority
After surviving the Honkai-consciousness takeover, Yomi gains a stabilized use of Origin and Void.
- Void authority can purge and optimize Honkai-energy structures, as demonstrated by removing Kevin’s artificial Honkai corruption. 110
- By optimizing Origin through Void, she can sever “all imaginable connections” in the intrinsic world. 110
- She creates a crystal for Otto that releases a connection-severing slash when crushed. 110
- As the new Origin, she alters the conditions for Herrscher apotheosis, allowing both a main personality and Herrscher personality their first opportunity to ascend. 111
- Limit: Her Void power remains unstable after the crisis and risks erupting again. 109
Composite Herrscher Powers
Yomi contains multiple overlapping powers that blend unusually well within her body.
- Her foundation comprises four intertwined Herrscher-level powers stabilized by a crucial internal authority. 66
- She possesses an innate lightning-related power, though it is weak compared with her other abilities. 66
- The black-purple Divine Key grants lightning authority; the black-red Divine Key carries erosion technology and consciousness-related authority. 66
- She merges with the Herrscher of Death’s core to perform Burial: Calamity Shackles. 76
Equipment / Weapons / Items
- Jizo Mitama — black-and-red Divine Key. When fully unsheathed, its sheath merges into Yomi’s body and releases sealed memories connected to Rosia. 93 94
- Sin Mallet Thunder of Seven — black-purple Divine Key associated with lightning and consciousness-related erosion technology. Sakura recognizes it as the Third Divine Key; Yomi later returns it to Raiden Mei. 66 81 110
- Multicolored flower — a chest ornament that stores and channels powers from Yomi’s domain. It also contains the consciousnesses of Hei-@@REF_ENTITY_4031881@@ and Bai-@@REF_ENTITY_4031881@@, enabling Yomi’s recovery from the Honkai takeover. 55 66 109
- Connection-severing crystal — a purplish-black crystal Yomi gives Otto; crushing it sends a slash capable of severing intrinsic-world connections. 110
Relationships
- Elysia — biological mother and prior bearer of Origin. Elysia’s residual consciousness stabilizes Yomi’s powers, guides her through Elysium, and worries that she will be consumed by the void within her. 69 78 81 82
- Raiden Mei — biological mother. Their relationship is initially confused by Yomi’s age and their mutual resemblance; they briefly settle on calling each other sisters before Mei accepts Yomi as her daughter. 86 106 109 110
- Kiana Kaslana — student and close companion who quickly becomes emotionally attached to Yomi and frequently seeks her comfort and attention. 56 58 102
- Raven — first major ally after Yomi’s awakening. Raven tests her abilities, recommends her to World Serpent, and grows protective of her. 47 48 52
- Grey Serpent — World Serpent superior who recognizes Yomi’s unusual heritage, admits her as an executive, and later grants her authority equal to Elysia’s. 48 84
- Kevin — an opponent, protector, and political counterweight. Yomi defeats him in a normal-state duel, while Kevin later risks transforming her into a Herrscher to save her from Nihility. 94 105 109
- Otto Apocalypse — maintains a transactional relationship with Yomi. He captures her by leveraging Mei, later hires her for a mission, and receives her connection-severing crystal. 68 88 110
- Rosia / Little Hei-@@REF_ENTITY_4031881@@ — consciousnesses tied to Yomi’s recovered memories and origins. Yomi views them with the affection and protectiveness she would give children. 97 110
- Bronya Zaychik — one of Yomi’s students. Yomi removes Bronya’s malfunctioning bio-chip and provides a maternal comfort Bronya finds difficult to resist. 64
- Sora — the survivor who takes Yomi in shortly after her awakening in Changkong City. 45

Trivia
- Yomi has no surname when she first enters St. Freya; “Raiden Yomi” is the name Raiden Mei suggests for her. 66

- Her sealed Divine Keys both restrain and protect her power. 81
- Yomi’s overwhelming combat ability contrasts with her poor sense of direction and occasional airheadedness. 47
