Who is Honkai Star Rail’s Dr. Ratio?
Described as ‘candid and self-centered’ Dr. Ratio seems like an interesting guy. He’s a member of the Intelligentsia Guild, which collects and trades knowledge across the universe. In the Guild, there are different schools, though Hoyoverse hasn’t revealed which Dr. Ratio belongs to just yet.
Boasting unparalleled intelligence, Dr. Ratio has one cause in mind – to rid the universe of a terrible disease: ignorance. Not gonna lie, he seems very full of himself, but hopefully, his kit will redeem his questionable personality.

Dr. Ratio’s English voice is Jordan Paul Haro, known for his work in other games like Ancestors Legacy and Minecraft. Meanwhile, his Japanese voice is Shunsuke Takeuchi, who provides voices in Street Fighter 6 and Vinland Saga, among other titles.
