Warp Trotters are interdimensional creatures that resemble a small warthog. It randomly appears in enemy battles, and tries to run away instead of attacking. Despite their docile nature, they’re sometimes tough to beat, but players get rewards for beating them. They’re also seen as monsters by many people in Honkai: Star Rail, but in Version 1.4, five-star character Topaz introduced her pet Warp Trotter named Numby. Players also get the chance to own their own Warp Trotter during the Aetherium Wars event.

The popularity of the Warp Trotter has resulted in many fan-made artworks, like a 3D-printed model. Reddit user CitingMarc shared an image of a miniature Warp Trotter 3D model that they made with their friend. The model was big enough to fit in the palm of the user’s hand, so it became a great tabletop decoration in their home along with posters of popular Honkai characters Kafka and Blade.

In the comment section, many Honkai: Star Rail fans complimented CitingMarc’s work. Some also suggested to turn the Warp Trotter 3D model into a piggy bank. Meanwhile, others reflect on the Warp Trotter’s non-aggressive personality, and how they feel bad about attacking them in-game just to end a battle.

The role of Warp Trotters like Numby in Honkai: Star Rail further strengthened the case for adding pet companions in the game. In Honkai: Star Rail, players can interact with adorable animal NPCs, such as Asta’s dog Peppy and the Xianzhou Luofu bionic dog Diting, who accompany them in a number of missions. Numby the Warp Trotter is extra special because they can approach other Warp Trotters, so Topaz can attack them easily. This shows that it might be possible to have pet companions that are both cute and functional in Honkai: Star Rail in future updates.

While there’s still no news from HoYoverse on whether it will add pets in Honkai: Star Rail or not, avid players still have a lot to look forward to. Version 1.5 will enter its second phase in less than a week, which will introduce the five-star character Argenti and four-star Hanya, as well as a Silver Wolf re-run. Honkai: Star Rail‘s story is also expected to progress in this phase of the update as the next world, Penacony, is heavily hinted to debut here.
