The protagonist has an average build and appears in his late teens. He has choppy brown hair and sharp golden eyes.

He wears a white dress shirt with a black waist-coat and black trousers. He also wears black laced boots. He has a black scarf around his neck, and three red belts: one across his chest, one on his hip, and one around his leg. He also wears black gloves. Over his shirt, he has a brown trench coat with a black hood. His coat has a Schicksal logo on the back.

## Personality

The protagonist's personality is mainly up to the player's choice. They range from logical and coolheaded to brash and arrogant.

Mei describes him as a mysterious kid, who appears to be poised and prim when reporting to her but does something weird and unusual every once in a while.

## History

Almost nothing is known of his past.

We do know he has been studying at St Freya for a while, and that he stands out since he's a boy with high Honkai adaptability. This is fairly uncommon, and thus, noteworthy.

He did study at the Schicksal prep academy, with Lyle Collodi as a classmate, until he transferred to St. Freya.

## Game Story

The protagonist accompanies Mei to St. Fountain to investigate the disappearance of Welt Yang. Upon arrival, his squad leader Mei asks him about his thoughts concerning the strange structure floating above the city. To help them find Welt, Mei suggests that they set up Honkai scanners around the city. The two of them split up.

The protagonist comes into contact with some Sky People, and reports back to Mei. Mei reports to Theresa Apocalypse, now the overseer of Schicksal, and the three discuss the appearance of the Sky People. Their channel is interrupted by a familiar voice that Theresa confirms is Otto Apocalypse's.

Mei detects a powerful Honkai energy signal from the scanners and the two go to investigate. Instead of Welt, they find his son Joffrey Joyce Yang (aka Joey, or Joyce) in the trunk of a car. They take Joey back to the hideout and ask what happened to him.

Later, Mei is able to get in contact with Carole, who is just now entering the city. Mei sends the protagonist to meet up with her and bring her over to the hideout. Mei believes that the strange occurrences in the city and Welt’s disappearance are linked. She believes they may be able to learn more by entering the structure above the city. They head to the bridge to ascend, but a strong enemy appears and threatens to end them. The bridge breaks in the chaos, but they are saved by Welt with the Star of Eden.

Welt accompanies the group back to their hideout where he reunites with Joey. The squad begins working on a plan to get the two out of the city. They head to the underground train station to secure transportation for Welt and Joyce, and succeed! The two head back and the squad moves out to investigate the flying object, despite their orders, hoping to stop the source of danger before it gets out of hand. They also believe by going there they can understand the fate of the former inhabitants of the city.

Upon climbing to the "castle", they find who they believe to be Otto waiting for them with an extremely strong enemy at his side. A battle begins, and Carole is injured in the process. Mei steps forward to protect her team, but she is instantly disarmed. She is run through by the enemy, who begins to drain her Herrscher energy. The protagonist performs a last ditch effort to save her.

He attempts to break through the enemy's shield, but is knocked down countless times. With no other options, he fully unlocks the restrictors on his weapon, Labor of Olympus, which floods his body with Honkai energy. He is able to save Mei but the two of them are left severely injured. Carole calls for help.

Carole fends off monsters for a good while until Bronya Zaychik comes in and rescues them. With Carole carrying Mei and Bronya supporting the unconscious protagonist, they are about to flee the scene when Bronya suddenly notices that he is starting to be zombified.

## Trivia

* According to the album files, the protagonist is the one who nicknamed Code VI "The Lovers." Dr. Tesla commented it was lame. Bronya, on the other hand, thought it was clever.
	+ This is further elaborated on in the entry for Code XVII - Star, where he clarifies that he simply named it in order of the Tarot cards of the Major Arcana after Carole tries applying a romantic meaning to it. This also implies he was the one to name all of them accordingly.
	+ The joke regarding the protagonist's naming of Code XVII - Star is emphasised again in A Post-Honkai Odyssey 2, with Timido having a similar misunderstanding and the protagonist not bothering to correct her.
* He's referred to as Adam among the fandom because that's the name of his in-game file. There has been no official confirmation by Hoyoverse regarding his actual name.
