11 What Are Kardia

33 Kardia are the leader characters in Honkai: Nexus Anima's Auto-Chess Combat. While Anima fight on the battlefield, Kardia stay off-field and provide support. Players deploy 3 Kardia per battle. The lead Kardia activates their Exclusive Principle a unique ability that triggers automatically during the fight. The two non-leader Kardia contribute their Talisman equipment bonuses to the team instead.

55 Exclusive Principles

77 Each Kardia has a unique Exclusive Principle that activates only when they're set as the team leader (the first of the three slots). These range from passive stat boosts to summoning extra units to conditional execution effects. The choice of leader is one of the biggest strategic decisions in team building.

Talismans are equippable items that provide passive stat bonuses. Things like increased health, attack power, or Aspect-specific buffs.
