->''"Even if it takes me to the ends of the Deep, I will stay by your side."''\\
''"Human beings will change the world with our own will."''\\
''"After all, the only inevitable truth about humanity is that humanity's truth will inevitably change"''

Bronya was a Russian orphan who was raised as an assassin since she was young. Eventually she was sent to assassinate Cocolia, a member of Anti-Entropy, but failed in her mission. Instead of killing her, Cocolia took pity on Bronya and took her to be raised in her orphanage. There Bronya was experimented on, gaining the power to use Honkai energy, enabling her to, among other things, [[PowerFloats levitate]], [[{{Hammerspace}} pull her cannon and her support puppet robot Project Bunny 19C out of nowhere]], and [[JourneyToTheCenterOfTheMind enter people's minds]], but losing her emotions as a result. Later, by Cocolia's orders, she was sent to St. Freya High School in order to spy on Schicksal.\\
\\
In "A Post-Honkai Odyssey" open world, 8 years from the present, Bronya has become a video game producer and a street racer on some occasions. Despite the fame and fortune she received, she never forgot her duties and responsibilities as a warrior who protects humanity. Currently she is working as the Acting Leader of Squad 2, with Lyle Collodi and Timido Cute under her supervision; they're sent by Theresa to retrieve the members of Squad 3 after Schicksal lost contact with them during the St. Fountain mission.

[[folder:A-L]]
* ActuallyPrettyFunny:
** In the event "Seele's Quantum Diary", a scene in the past shows Roza and Lili eavesdropping on Bronya wanting to go outside with Seele (when the outside was still dangerous for children due to wars) and they "threaten" to snitch to their foster mother... all with Roza ChewingTheScenery (or trying to, at least) while saying so and Lili only half-heartedly following along. Bronya can barely hold her laughter back.
** In the end of ch. 12, Roza seems to understand Theresa's view that "the future is for the young"... and then goes on to say that it means they can play now and start working hard tomorrow. Seele and Lili give her exasperated looks, while Bronya lets out a light laugh.
* AdventuresInComaland: The Extra Stage "Dilemma Dreamland" covers her journey inside her mind (accompanied by Fu Hua) after she fell into a coma following the events of Chapter 4. There, she'll try rediscovering herself and fight her inner demons.
* AgeInappropriateDress: Note that Bronya is only 16 at the start of the game. Her Yamabuki Armor battlesuit, its PaletteSwap Throatwort, and its alternate outfit Helena's Wings are not only midriff-baring, they leave the top half of her butt almost completely exposed[[note]]although in-game cutscenes depict Yamabuki Armor as covering more than what her character sprite does[[/note]], and her Candy Demon and Techno Beats outfits basically are a pants-bra-open jacket combo.
* AlphaStrike: Black Nucleus' ultimate skill is to immobilize the target and surround them with cannons from every side, which proceed to bombard them for heavy damage. Its boss version (Dark Bronya) has a different one where it arranges multiple portals above her with cannons inside them, which then bombard a large area.
* AlternateSelf:
** In the Previous Era, Dr. MEI created an ArtificialIntelligence called "Prometheus". The AI had an outline appearance that's similar to Bronya. In a twist, [[spoiler:Void Archives, the 1st Divine Key, was partly made with Prometheus as its AI. This gives a deeper layer of meaning to Bronya becoming the Herrscher of Reason - Void Archives was the 1st Herrscher of the old world]].
** In "Rosemary's Floriograph" event, the event's version of Bronya used to be raised in a church orphanage ran by Schicksal in St. Fountain, before a Honkai disaster struck said city. Here, instead of Cocolia, Bronya has Joachim as her foster parent. After said Honkai disaster, she and Joachim were among the few survivors of the orphanage; when Welt Joyce of Schicksal visited St. Fountain to start the "Anti-Entropy" project, he found Bronya and chose to adopt her as his daughter, make Joachim his assistant (and Bronya's personal tutor and guardian), and turn the ruins of the orphanage into both his manor and his laboratory building. As Welt feared that Bronya might be traumatized by the disaster, he sent her to live in a neighboring city. In the event's present, after Welt's death, Bronya is brought back to his manor by Joachim to sort out the issue of his inheritance.
* AnimalMotifs: Rabbits. Her last name is similar to зайчик which is Russian for "bunny" and her twin-tail hairstyle brings one to mind.
* BackStab: Black Nucleus has a passive skill that increases the damage dealt if she attacks the enemies from their backs.
* BadassBiker: The Seele event in v3.1 shows that Bronya was trained to ride a motorcycle when she was a ChildSoldier. [[spoiler:When she gains the power of the Herrscher of Reason, Project Bunny gains [[TransformingMecha an alternate]] [[CoolBike motorcycle mode]] that Bronya gets to ride in her battle against Tlaloc, [[HighSpeedMissileDodge skillfully dodging the monster's tentacles]] by driving on a [[SteppingStonesInTheSky holographic road]], then proceeding to ram Tlaloc's head at full speed. As a playable character, she uses her bike when roaming in the Open World stages (Sakura Samsara, Schicksal HQ, and a few others), allowing you to go around faster]].
* BeamSpam: Her Herrscher of Reason powers allow her to create an immense number of beam cannons (at least in cinematics). In-game, the animation for her Ultimate shows her generating several copies of Project Bunny's shoulder cannons that continually blast a target with energy beams until the Ultimate's timer runs out.
* BecomingTheMask: She was tasked by Anti-Entropy to follow Mei so that one day she could capture her, but by the time she enrolled into St. Freya Academy (along with Mei and Kiana), she grew genuinely fond of Mei.
* BeginWithAFinisher: In CoopMultiplayer, her Valkyrie Chariot battlesuit's Team Skill is to create a small AreaOfEffect that quickly fills the team's SP when they stand in it, which can also be done at the start of the battle. Valkyrie Chariot also has an Ultimate Skill that [[YouWillNotEvadeMe gathers enemies around]] with only 50 SP, so that beginning team stages with her Ultimate Skill (especially when there are a lot of enemies around) would greatly help with finishing the stage faster.
* {{BFG}}: Most versions of her are based around Project Bunny 19C being armed with some kind of heavy artillery, usually a rocket launcher, [[MacrossMissileMassacre a cluster missile launcher]], or a laser cannon that fires a continuous beam. The exception is Wolf's Dawn; [[SmallGirlBigGun Bronya wields the artillery]] while Project Bunny 19C fights with a PileBunker-style lance.
* BlindedByTheLight: One of Dark Bronya's attacks (which is used as Black Nucleus' team skill) is to throw a small ball of light up, which then emits a flash of light like a flashbang that stuns her opponents (unless you turn away from her).
* BrokenPedestal: Bronya [[ThisIsUnforgivable finds it hard to forgive Cocolia]] after what the latter's done to her[[note]]e.g [[VillainOverride taking control of her body and ordering her to attack her friends without her consent]], and possibly other questionable things she ordered her foster child to do[[/note]], and she finds Cocolia's obsession with Herrschers rather unsettling (considering she got to be friends with Mei and Wendy as well). However, she can't deny that Cocolia has been kind to her (as a foster mother) either, a feeling that her orphanage friends Rozaliya & Liliya reinforce.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Her Post-Honkai Odyssey self is more relaxed but still formal and very professional... except for the fact that she keeps taking "inspiration" from fights or dialogues around her for her video game projects.
* TheBusCameBack: Discounting the event stories, after she was absent from the story after chapter 12, chapter 20 has her come back along with Kiana.
* CallBack:
** The control chip inside her brain (that she fried in ch. 4, resulting in her coma) gets referenced in Chapter 9-[=EX2=]​, as Gray Serpent invades Hyperion's system.
--->'''Gray Serpent''': Remember that control switch that Cocolia left in your brain? \\
'''Bronya''': That chip should be burnt out. \\
'''Gray Serpent''': You're right, it no longer functions. But the pain it brought should be more permanent.
** In the end of her side story "Dilemma Dreamland", Bronya (inside her mind) tells Fu Hua that (the ability to) enter other people's minds isn't something to be proud of. Later, [[spoiler:when Fu Hua reappears in her mind in Chapter 9-[=EX2=], Bronya says the same line. The twist is that Fu Hua says that she isn't the real Fu Hua, but one of her "feathers" that she left in Bronya's mind]].
* CallingTheOldManOut: In chapter 10, she expresses her disappointment towards Cocolia's actions and behavior, going so far as to slap her hand away. This, along with the Gray Serpent's attack on the Olenyeva twins, causes Cocolia to have a HeelRealization; but later, after returning from the Sea of Quanta in ch. 12, Bronya also feels guilty and concerned for doing it in the first place, realizing that Cocolia is still her foster mother who genuinely cared for her.
* CarFu: At the end of Chapter 11, [[spoiler:she charges her motorcycle through Tlaloc's arms, into its mouth, and out of the back of its head, obliterating everything above its shoulders in the process. As a playable character, Herrscher of Reason's QTE and Ultimate Skill has her ramming the enemy with her bike (and, for the latter, [[AlphaStrike shooting the enemy with multiple beams from multiple cannons from many sides at once]]), and in her "bike mode" she has a strong SpinAttack with the bike]].
* CharacterDevelopment: She gets one beginning from chapter 10. She has trust issues with her foster mother, and she's used to obeying commands, so she has a problem deciding for herself; Theresa helps her with their talk, where the principal says that to grow up is to be able to decide for herself. Then, when the beast Tlaloc attacks Eye of the Deep and the Gem of Desire falls into the Sea of Quanta, Bronya decides (against Theresa's call to return to safety) to jump in as well, knowing that the gem shouldn't fall to Schicksal's hands. In ch. 11, "Joachim" puts her into tests (by throwing her into the bubble universes), trying to see how she will make her decisions to solve the problems. Eventually he concludes that she passes, and leads her way to [[spoiler:the Herrscher Core of Reason]]. After she gets out of the Sea of Quanta, she goes on to make peace with Cocolia as the latter imparts her with a lesson to look after the orphanage and learn to trust and rely on her friends.
* ChargedAttack: Her artillery shots can be charged to become more powerful; her rocket launcher can fire a volley of powerful rockets, her cluster missile launcher can fire a multitude of {{Homing Projectile}}s, and her laser will do more DamageOverTime.
* ChildSoldier: She has faced the battlefield even before she became a teenager, and [[LittleMissBadass is coldly efficient at it]]. This gives her an aloof disposition that often sets Seele off.
-->'''Seele:''' Did you play on a swing before? \\
'''Bronya:''' Nyet. But I played with Avtomat Kalashnikova and Dragunova.
* ColdSniper: She was one in her backstory as an assassin, with a reference to the real life sniper Simo Hayha. Nowadays she's largely the same, only that she's much colder than before and she uses heavy artillery instead of sniper rifles. Literally as Snowy Sniper, with her gaining [[AnIcePerson ice powers]] that she can use to freeze enemies.
* ContraltoOfStrength: Her adult self in A Post Honkai Odyssey speaks with the same deadpan tone as the main story's Bronya, but has a noticeably lower pitch. Fittingly, when Bronya re-enters the battlefield in APHO, she takes a much more hands-on approach to combat than anything she previously displayed.
* CooldownManipulation: Snowy Sniper and Black Nucleus have a skill where she can reduce the cooldown time of the whole team's Ultimate Evasion/Perfect Defense for a few seconds if she's set as the leader.
* TheCracker: She's good at hacking through networks and security systems, and is generally computer-savvy.
* DeadpanSnarker: Despite her lack of emotions, Bronya is still capable of dealing verbal jabs here and there, mostly towards Kiana.
* DeathSeeker: Only in one case in her backstory, where she wanted to be put in Anti-Entropy's quantum experiment, knowing that she'll "die" in the process. This was apparently so that [[TogetherInDeath she can meet Seele, who had undergone the same experiment and "disappeared"]]. However, once she had her brief reunion with Seele, the latter told her to go away to stay alive, and find a way to rescue Seele from her current state.
-->'''Seele:''' [[HopeBringer You're my hope, Bronya]]. You're the bravest and strongest person I've known. [[ReunionVow You'll find a way to rescue me]]. Staying here with me would mean you've given up hope and chose to run away...
* DeclarationOfProtection: In "Seele's Diary", she wanted to take Seele out to the closest amusement park, but the latter warned her that it's dangerous outside; she then says "I'll protect you". In other occasions she's also instinctively protective of Seele whenever the latter is feeling down.
* DefectorFromDecadence: In the "Cybernet Havens" event, Alloy Bronn (Bronya's character in the event) is a legendary prodigy haxxor (Devastator-class with 791 missions under her belt, in contrast to Rita's 273 and Durandal's ''[[NewMeat zero]]''), but went AWOL and was subsequently branded as a traitor and enemy of Cyberpolis. Alloy Bronn and Theresa latter explain that Otto's policies for the Pure Society simply don't work on the Snakes, and that in order to win against them, she had to take independent action, thus going rogue alongside Theresa.
* DeflectorShields:
** Yamabuki Armor has a passive skill that creates a spherical barrier for the whole team (and summoned friends and/or friendly escorts, if there are any) that blocks physical damage and [[DeadlyForceField can explode to deal damage]] if the shield is broken; the shield will regenerate if no attacks hit you for 6 seconds. If she's ranked S, she can make the shield stronger. After her Augment Core upgrade, her barrier becomes even stronger with it being based off a percentage of her HP and DEF. It also "beats" and deals a small amount of damage at intervals to close enemies[[note]]its damage is based on the active character, and can also trigger passive abilities from said character[[/note]], it buffs the character's melee physical damage and crit rate whenever it's active, and when the shield explodes, it can [[TheParalyzer paralyze nearby enemies]]. However, it no longer automatically regenerates--to reset the shield you have to perform her QTE, her Ultimate Skill or (at SSS rank) her Perfect Defense.
** Wolf's Dawn has a similar passive skill, but for elemental damage.
* DePower: [[spoiler:At the climax of ch. 12, Bronya as Herrscher of Reason ended up having her Herrscher Core taken out by Kevin, turning her back to how she was like previously. This, however, allows Welt to rematerialize himself using said core. In the chapter's epilogue, she accepts the core back from him.]]
* DiscOneNuke: Valkyrie Chariot Bronya's QTE attack is an AOE slam attack that deals immense damage to enemies caught within it and lifts them up into the air to juggle them even further. It can also be easily triggered by stunning the opponent, which White Comet Kiana (your starting Valkyrie) can do with her normal attacks.
* EmotionlessGirl:
** She speaks in a deadpan monotone and in a [[SpockSpeak polite, direct and terse way of speaking]]. She's also very rational and logical-thinking, which makes her clash with the intuition- and emotionally-driven Kiana. This is due to her suffering brain damage in her backstory. While she can still feel emotions deep down, she has difficulties recognizing and expressing them; notably, this doesn't stop her from being compassionate and caring when she needs it, as seen from how she can handle and befriend Wendy with her words, and from her HeroicSacrifice below.
** In one ''Cooking with Valkyries'' epsiode, her methodical way of thought means that she gets confused at making tapas, as it relies on the maker's imagination and creativity rather than a fixed recipe. Rita helps her by telling her to think what she wants to eat and who she's going to share it with. Bronya thinks of Seele and that gives her an idea.
* ExoticEyeDesigns: In the "Cyberangel" video, [[spoiler:right before she unleashed the final barrage on Tlaloc, her eyes gain a design of 2 half circles and a gear inside them; these are the same eye designs as Welt's when he uses his Herrscher powers, indicating that Bronya truly has inherited the powers of the Herrscher of Reason]]. In Chapter XXXII, Bronya's NextTierPowerUp as [[spoiler:the Herrscher of Truth]] has her grey irises turn lighter and pupils turn bright pink. This change sticks well into APHO's era where she has become an adult, signifying her status as a former Herrscher.
* ExpositoryPronoun: In A Post-Honkai Odyssey, she has dropped her ThirdPersonPerson speech and uses the more conventional "I" instead, which showcases her mental growth along with her physical one.
* {{Fangirl}}: She's a big one to the plush bunny named HOMU, which is one of the game's mascots. Some of her outfits have the face of HOMU (or a silhouette of it) plastered onto them. She has been a fan even back when she was a ChildSoldier and then got put into Cocolia's orphanage. The side story "Dilemma Dreamland" takes place in her dreamscape, filled with living HOMU-related characters. In the "HOMU Rush!" event, when her team is told to smash a statue of HOMU as part of the trial, she refuses, saying that she would defend the HOMU at all costs (including being beaten by Theresa). Finally, in the "Bronya's Game Studio" mini event, even though she is now in her 20s, she's still an avid fan of HOMU, despite its waning popularity during the Post-Honkai era, as it represents good memories she and her friends created during hard times.
* FanservicePack: Her adult self in Post-Honkai Odyssey gains a massive bust size increase, along with JigglePhysics and a leg-revealing dress. She's also gotten noticeably taller.
* FirstKiss: In a supplementary comic focusing on Bronya's backstory, [[https://manga.honkaiimpact3.com/book/1004/11 at the end of the Azure Waters]], she and Seele share their first kiss just before Seele [[FadingAway fades away from reality]] due to the (failed) experiment done on her. They insisted that it wouldn't be their LastKiss, and Seele's technically not dead (she's just unable to interact with the world or say anything to anyone, and vice versa), which leads to Bronya and Cocolia vowing to find a way to restore her.
* FrillyUpgrade: Using [[spoiler:the Herrscher Core of Reason]]'s power gives her a new suit with a big, wavy skirt.
* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** In "Seele's Quantum Diary", when Bronya and Seele saw a pack of motorbike riders going past them, Bronya said that she'll get a motorbike and the two can ride it to the beach. At the end of Ch. 11, she gets her NextTierPowerUp from [[spoiler:the Herrscher Core of Reason]] that transforms her Project Bunny into a more powerful form, that can [[TransformingMecha transform into a motorbike]].
** In the third act of chapter 26, she has a conversation with Rita where the latter advises her to add some flashiness and elegance to her combat style to help her reputation and have more people buy her services. Her adult self in a Post-Honkai Odyssey clearly took note of this advice, as she fights a lot more gracefully, [[DanceBattler almost dancing on the battlefield.]]
* GamerChick: Bronya is [[GodlikeGamer very good at various kind of games]], and regularly beats Kiana and others in them, which gets referenced in multiple ways:
** The manga typically shows her playing against the other characters and easily winning even while she's [[ExcuseMeWhileIMultitask expertly preparing dessert with her other hand]].
** The Final HOMU Fantasy Raid has her practically taking over a MMORPG that she became obsessed over, with her godlike avatar serving as the Final Boss.
** One of the dates in the anniversary event shows that this even extends to things like basketball arcade games, where she handily beats the Captain if the player picks that option, thinking it would be an easy win due to her height.
** The anniversary summer event has her taking over [=miHoYo=] in order to realize her dream of making a HOMU-based game of her own.
** A later summer event ("Homu RUSH!") shows her being a game streamer during her off days.
** The "Odd Drifter" event involves the Captain, Tesla, and Seele finding her holed up inside an enormous mecha, having tapped its power core so she can play video games all day. Everyone gets sucked into playing with her.
** In the Arcade part of the "St. Freya Fiesta" event, one of the random scenarios has Bronya playing one of the games with a huge stack of arcade credits besides her.
** Her Alloy_Bronya avatar in ''Honkai Gods'', which is a LawyerFriendlyCameo of [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater Naked Snake]], is infamous for killing two rival servers on his own, then curbstomping every contestant in the tournament ''without'' auto-aim. Her username shows up again in the ''Kiana Plays Honkai'' short comic, where Fu Hua develops a MadnessMantra swearing that she'll defeat Alloy Bron.
--->'''Bronya:''' The Bronya shall teach these whales and salty noobs a lesson: gear isn't everything. ''[...]'' The Alloy_Bronya shall initiate extermination protocols. There will only be one god in ''Honkai Gods''.
** In A Post-Honkai Odyssey, one of the in-game files titled "A scrap of paper" contains a video game walkthrough based on the ''Arahato'' anime written by username [=AlloyBron=]. It implies that Bronya is still an avid gamer and her godlike gaming skills are recognized by the public, to the point she decided to boost her career as a video game content creator or even an esports athlete. In the actual lore, however, she is now working as a video game producer after gaining work experiences with Welt's E.T. Studio and creating a videogame based on the aforementioned ''Arahato''.
* GirlishPigtails: She wears her hair in twin drills [[spoiler:until she becomes the Herrscher of Reason, at which point her hair comes down while keeping the drill-shaped curls at the ends]].
* GratuitousEnglish:
** Bronya occasionally says "Yes, Captain." as [[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason]].
** When she does her most powerful Razing Chrome Ultimate in APHO 2, she says "Final shot!" as the beams fire. She also says this with her Ultimate in the regular game as Silverwing.
* GroundPunch: Almost all of Bronya's battlesuits have this as an attack of some sort:
** Valkyrie Chariot's switch-in attack is to [[DeathFromAbove fall from above]] and punch the ground with her Project Bunny. Her QTE is a stronger version of this, with the punch emitting a circular energy field that deals high damage.
** In Yamabuki Armor's Ultimate Skill, her Project Bunny will do a ground punch as the final hit of its combo attack.
** As Wolf's Dawn, her Project Bunny may sometimes punch the ground to attack enemies, which will send them airborne.
** Black Nucleus (both as the boss "Dark Bronya" and the playable version) slides in and punches the ground as her switch-in skill. In a variant, her QTE has her Project Bunny punch the ground with a charged cannon instead of its fist, which then releases a large explosion on the ground.
** Some of her weapon skills will have the Project Bunny punch the ground to generate different effects. Her stealth kill in Sakura Samsara mode is also executed this way.
* HandicappedBadass: She's one of the stronger (and [[GeniusCripple more brilliant]]) students in her academy and her legs are crippled. Downplayed in that her thigh-high metal boots are prostheses that allows her to walk normally. By the time of APHO, though, her legs are fully exposed, implying she doesn't need the prosthetics anymore.
* HeroicSacrifice: Around the climax of Chapter 4, she fries the bio chip inside her brain that's controlling her in order to free herself from Cocolia's control and stop herself from hurting her friends, at the cost of her going comatose. Cocolia, who saw Bronya like her own child, [[OhCrap even begs her to stop it]].
-->'''Cocolia''': Are you kidding me?! That chip is supposed to be implanted inside your brain! Are you trying to kill yourself?!
* HeroicSecondWind: At Ch. 11 stage 16, she was defeated by [[spoiler:Seele's SplitPersonality]]. Stage 17 has Joachim waking her up in her mind, exploring parts of the strange world she's in, all while hearing the voices of the people she met in the "bubble universes". At the end of the level, she solidifes her resolve, and stage 18 has her wake up for real, ready to confront the boss again.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: In the end of ch. 12, when Welt entrusts [[spoiler:his Herrscher Core of Reason]] to Bronya, she's confused, saying that there might be someone better. Welt says that it's because [[spoiler:"Joachim"]] had chosen her, as she has passed his "tests" and proved herself. She then says that she was defeated (by [[spoiler:Kevin]]) even with her holding it, but Welt preaches to her that she'll never "lose" if she stays true to what she truly is. He then proposes to teach her how to use the thing.
* HolographicTerminal: A bunch of these appear near Wolf's Dawn when she uses her Ultimate Skill.
* HoverBot: Accompanied by Project Bunny 19c, her personal support robot that usually flies behind her. She usually hides it in {{Hammerspace}}, and she'll summon it whenever she needs to attack.
* ImaginationBasedSuperpower: [[spoiler:This is the main superpower for being the Herrscher of Reason. Her bio mentions that while she isn't as knowledgeable as Welt when it comes to weaponry and military equipments and vehicles, she knows her own Project Bunny enough that she mainly uses her power to manipulate it.]]
* ImprovisedPlatform: In a variant, [[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason]] can create roads in the air [[spoiler:as she rides on Project Bunny's bike form]].
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Either played with or played straight during the 2017 event "[[https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1YW411h7VC?p=1 家园事件]]" (which roughly translates to "Home Incident") where she attempts to strip naked and join the captain in a hot spring despite his protests. She goes as far as claiming that bathing together can save water and energy by 20% and doesn't seem to understand why taking her clothes off in front of him made him so embarrassed.
-->'''Bronya''': Captain, did you know that bathing together instead of separately saves water and energy consumption by 20%, and this isn't even considering the time saved that can be used to prepare against the enemy?
* {{Invisibility}}: Black Nucleus' Ultimate Evasion and QTE effect is to activate "stealth mode" where she's invisible to her enemies and [[ReduceAggro stops drawing their aggro]]. This is useful for sneaking behind the enemy's back and then attacking them from behind, as well as escaping tough situations, and gives her increased speed. She'll exit the mode when she attacks (if she's charging her cannon, she won't be visible until she actually fires it), uses her Evasion move, gets hit, or switches out with her partner.
* ItsAllMyFault: In the end of ch. 12, Bronya blames herself for being unable to [[spoiler:stop Kevin (World Serpent) from going out to the real world]]. Einstein assures her that it's not her fault and there's nothing they could do; she points out that Bronya had saved Welt and Seele, and that is enough.
* JustFrameBonus: Dimension Breaker has an unique mechanic for Bronya's laser cannons where, after she overheats her laser, there'll be a shrinking circle near her laser's position. Pressing the attack button when the circle gets small enough will make her laser cool down instantly, allowing her to fire again immediately.
* LawyerFriendlyCameo: Bronya's [[https://mangadex.org/chapter/616908/6 Alloy_BRONYA game avatar]] in the "Himouto BRONYA Chan" manga chapter is pretty much [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater Big Boss]] in a HOMU Hat.
* LiteralSplitPersonality:
** The "Dilemma Dreamland" side story (which takes place in her coma dreams) has her fight the different aspects of her: Snowy Sniper (representing her coldness), Yamabuki Armor (representing her "shielding" herself from other people), and Black Nucleus (representing the time she was controlled by Cocolia).
** In the "Stygian Blooms" event, a side effect of Seele abducting her into Seele's inner world causes Bronya to split into 2 versions of herself: one of them (as Snowy Sniper) seems to be mentally stuck in the past, while the other ([[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason]]) seemingly forgets her past and can only remember recent events.
* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Her Project Bunny 19c can use the shield on its right arm to protect Bronya from attacks; the DefendCommand mechanic [[MechanicallyUnusualClass (which replaces the usual Evasion)]] is only used for Yamabuki Armor and Dimension Breaker valkyrie suits. If the shield button is released right after an attack is blocked, Bronya will do a CounterAttack (different for each of her suits).
[[/folder]]

[[folder:M-Y]]
* ManaShield: Dimension Breaker has a passive skill (that can be toggled on or off) that reduces her damage taken at the cost of burning bits of her SP per hit.
* MarionetteMaster: She has a mechanical puppet named "Project Bunny 19c" that aids her in attacks and (sometimes) defense.
* MechanicallyUnusualFighter: [[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason fights differently from any other Bronya: she has melee attacks as her normal attack, and her ChargedAttack, which still accomodates the variations of her heavy weapons, also works differently. It only requires her to fill a special gauge (by attacking, Ultimate Evasion or QTE) and it doesn't require charging time, allowing her to repeatedly bombard the enemies with the 3rd stage of her charged shots so long as she still has units in her gauge. Her laser cannons now only shoot short bursts of lasers instead of a continuous one, and they don't overheat. She's also able to activate Ultimate Evasion's effect ''after'' being hit (the "available" time frame is short, however). Her Ultimate Skill's effect is also rather unique, consisting of her riding on her CoolBike and evading enemies while she manifests multiple floating laser cannons to shoot enemies.]]
* TheMole: She's actually an agent of Anti-Entropy who infiltrates Schicksal on their orders. She ends up betraying Kiana and Mei, but only because she is [[VillainOverride being controlled by Cocolia]]. Later, Bronya comes to care about Mei so much that she decides to fry the control chip inside her brain (wrecking her own brain in the process) just to break herself free from Cocolia's control. Later, in the Schicksal HQ Open World, one of Ai-chan's chats has her talk about Bronya, and in particular, how she was rumored to be a mole for Anti-Entropy; but as they're [[EnemyMine allying with AE]] at the time, she points out that it shouldn't matter anymore.
* MsFanservice: In APHO 2, she definitely fits the trope with her [[ShesAllGrownUp adult body]], huge breasts (which have large amounts of JigglePhysics), long hair, an alluring dress, and [[LegFocus plenty of leg]]. Even when dressed in an office sweater, it can't hide just how busty she is (if anything, it makes her look even ''bigger''), rivalling the likes of Himeko and Aponia.
* MythologyGag:
** Bronya's Wolf's Dawn battlesuit is based on one of her outfits from the game's predecessor ''Benghuai Xueyuan'' (aka ''Guns [=GirlZ=]''). In a supplementary comic that takes place before the game's present, she still wears it (and her Project Bunny still has its PileBunker lance as its left arm, and she didn't wield a cannon yet).
** One of Bronya's weapons is [[GatlingGood a rotary cannon]] that was used by a (now deceased) Valkyrie in the past, as shown in the comic.
* NextTierPowerUp:
** While searching for Seele in the Sea of Quanta at the end of Ch. 11 (in the plotline animation "Cyberangel: ZERO Exception"), Bronya stumbles upon [[spoiler:the Herrscher Core of Reason (Joachim/Welt's core)]] and tries to grab it, only for it to go out of control and try to assimilate her, while also being simultaneously attacked by a Tlaloc. It isn't until Seele's spirit appears before her that Bronya snaps out of it and seizes full control of the thing, granting her and Project Bunny a massive upgrade and materialization powers [[spoiler:befitting of the Herrscher of Reason]], which she gets to demonstrate by curbstomping the Tlaloc. Her bio, however, says that this is a DeadlyUpgrade as it eats away at her from within (which gets confirmed in ch. 12). She cares little about it, as long as she can use it to save Seele.
** Following the confrontation with Hare in Chapter XXXII, Bronya's powers as [[spoiler:the Herrscher of Reason]] further evolve in order to face the present threats. With her own interpretation of the legacy left behind by her predecessor, Bronya ascends as [[spoiler:the Herrscher of Truth]] and unlocks the full potential of her power, something her predecessors were never able to.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** Bronya gets unusually emotive at the climax of ch. 12. It could be because she was very close to Seele, or that she's trying to save Welt, or she's wanting to stop [[spoiler:the "World Serpent" (who turns out to be Kevin Kaslana)]].
** In the Dorm, if you put Bronya as [[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason]] with Himeko, the latter will ask if the former is alright before Bronya goes to hug her tightly, so much that Himeko blushes despite her claiming to be a war veteran. Bronya then asks to hug her a little longer. [[spoiler:Seeing as this version of Bronya comes to be after Himeko is killed, she's probably ovewhelmed by the sight of her teacher alive and well again]].
* {{Overheating}}: Bronya's laser cannons will overheat if used for too long, and she'll have to wait till they cool down to fire again. As Dimension Breaker, she has a passive skill that delays the overheat of the laser weapons and her Ultimate Skill allows her to continuously use laser weapons without overheating until the duration ends.
* OutdoorBathPeeping: A rare gender-reversed example shown in the 2017 event "[[https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1YW411h7VC?p=1 家园事件]]" (Home Incident) where she reveals she'd been waiting at the hot spring for 3 minutes and 21 seconds before the captain arrived, took his clothes off, and got in. To his horror, he realizes that she must have seen him nude.
* ParentalAbandonment: Bronya mentions in Ch. 4 that her real parents weren't there with her when she was little. [[OrphansOrdeal She was forced into the army and trained to become a cold and efficient]] ChildSoldier until Cocolia found her and then adopted her.
* PersonalityPowers:
** Her stoic and cold persona befits her ice powers as Snowy Sniper.
** [[spoiler:As she's a rational-thinking person driven by logic, it's no wonder that she gets to acquire the power of Herrscher of Reason and be able to understand its use.]]
* PileBunker: As Wolf's Dawn, her Project Bunny wields a huge JoustingLance-like pile bunker as its left arm. If she attacks the enemy with uncharged shots, her Project Bunny will do a thrusting attack with it, and her Ultimate Skill has Project Bunny smash the ground with it 3 times, hitting the enemies around it with the earth spikes that jut out of the ground.
* PlotDeviceAllAlong: Aside from her receiving it from Seele from "Imaginary Space", Project Bunny 19c otherwise looks and acts like a normal robot and has the capabilities of such. However, in ch. 11, it's shown that it can attack Quantum enemies normally when, as Joachim claims, normal weaponry would have a hard time hurting them.
* PowerFloats: While Bronya can walk using her leg prosthetics, her Project Bunny 19c allows her to float in the air, which she prefers.
* PowerMakesYourHairGrow: [[spoiler:As Herrscher of Reason, her hair grows longer and looser; it's more noticeable than Herrscher of the Void as Bronya usually keeps her hair in twintails.]]
* PromotedToPlayable: The Dark Bronya boss of Chapter 2 became playable as the S-rank Black Nucleus battlesuit.
* PuppetFighter:
** As Wolf's Dawn, her Project Bunny 19c is away from her at all times and will attack the enemies at its vicinity or if Bronya use uncharged attacks on a specific target. The enemies will [[DrawAggro try to attack Project Bunny]] while Bronya can shoot them from afar.
** Downplayed with Dimension Breaker, as her Project Bunny only detaches from her if she uses her Ultimate Skill. Like in Wolf's Dawn's case, it will grab the enemies' attention for several seconds, then release an explosion and finally teleport back to Bronya.
* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Bronya's Black Nucleus battlesuit is mainly black with red accents (her Project Bunny also gets recolored similarly), and it represents her being controlled by Cocolia.
* RedBaron: In the past, as an assassin, she used to be called "Silver Wolf of Ural".
* RedEyesTakeWarning: As Black Nucleus, [[EyeColorChange her eyes turn red]] and she becomes more dangerous and hostile. In story, it represents her [[MindControlEyes being controlled by Cocolia]].
* RollerbladeGood: While it's not been shown in-game, during the cutscene where [[spoiler:Bronya becomes the Herrscher of Reason]], the feet of her leg prosthetics transform into motorcycle-like tires which she uses to skate through [[spoiler:the tunnel of Honkai material created by Tlaloc]] until she can catch up to Project Bunny 19C.
* SeeksAnothersResurrection: In one supplemental comic, her best friend Seele "died" in an experiment and she and Cocolia vowed to restore her somehow. They apparently thought Mei's powers as a Herrscher may be able to help them, which is part of the reason Bronya decided to go to the same school as Mei.
* SexySweaterGirl: In APHO, Bronya wears a sweater in her [=CEO=] outfit that puts a big focus on her huge breasts.
* ShesAllGrownUp: And how! In APHO, Bronya has matured into a ''very'' curvy woman whose chest rivals that of Aponia, Himeko, and so forth, when she was previously flat-chested.
* ShieldBash:
** Yamabuki Armor's switch-in attack is to dash towards an enemy and then bash them with the shield on her Project Bunny's hand. Her QTE is a stronger version of it that also stuns the target.
** Wolf's Dawn has a similar switch-in attack, only that the Project Bunny detaches from her and then dashes at the enemy shield-first. Her QTE also works similarly.
* ShipTease: She's visibly touched and smiles after the captain tells her how much she means to him in her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckqFuw_OuNU 2020 birthday event]]; her facial expression then changes to being extremely happy and caring. She also implies that he won her heart with his words.
-->'''Bronya''': 40 points to 1. This time, it's the captain's victory.
* ShorterMeansSmarter: She's among the shortest of the playable cast and she has good computational skills, courtesy of the experiments she had in her younger days.
* ShoulderCannon: [[spoiler:As Herrscher of Reason, she wields [[GunsAkimbo two BFGs at once]] on Project Bunny's shoulders.]]
* ShutUpHannibal: That can be double as the BadassBoast towards Gray Serpent as he proceeds to do a [[MindRape mental invasion]] on her in Chapter 9-[=EX2=].
-->'''Gray Serpent''': I know what you fear.\\
'''Bronya''': Fear? Bronya lives with it [[OrphansOrdeal since Bronya was born]].
* TheSmartGirl: Or as Kiana describes her, Bronya is a "super-hacker". Chapter 1 shows that the other girls rely on her when it comes to tech-related stuff, such as decrypting the Selene battleship's system, or hacking into Anti-Entropy mechas.
* SpreadShot: As Black Nucleus, she has an unique ability that changes how her cluster missile works; instead of homing to multiple enemies, the missiles now spread out like shotgun pellets, which is good for both hitting a row of enemies and dealing high damage to a single enemy at close range.
* SquishyWizard: The modification to her body allows her to control Honkai energy and use it to achieve various feats, but her body is fragile; she has among the lowest HP count of the playable characters. Subverted by Yamabuki Armor which focuses on defense.
* StaircaseTumble:
** In the past, this happened to her courtesy of Sin Mal, who then stomped on her legs to damage them further. When Cocolia treated her, Bronya only claimed that she was "careless", but Cocolia knew that someone like Bronya can't be that careless, and then says that Bronya could've retaliated and broke the neck of the person who had pushed her down.
** In the "Rosemary's Floriograph" event, one of the cutscenes shows the entries of a diary presumably belonging to Joachim. In one of the entries (set in the past), he mentions that Bronya fell down the stairs and presumably was comatose for a while. The story implies that Bronya may have [[HeKnowsTooMuch figured out something that she shouldn't]] about the experiments that were being done on her adopted brother, and being pushed down the stairs was an attempt to murder her so she couldn't leak the info to anyone. Near the climax, Bronya says that it was Gray Serpent and Raven who were responsible for the attack, leaving her unconscious for long enough to be moved to one of Shicksal's hospitals outside St. Fountain.
* SuperMode:
** Yamabuki Armor can enter a Burst Mode where she switches into melee combat mode with Project Bunny's powerful punches until her SP is depleted. If the enemies have the "impaired" status (whether by using her uncharged shots, team skill or some other means), the initial activation will put the enemies in a time-slowed state; when she punches the enemies in that state, [[HealThyself she can heal the whole team with each punch]]. After the Augment Core upgrade, her attacks during Ultimate now drag enemies towards her and put them in a time-slowed state, and her DeflectorShield continuously regenerates in the duration. It also strengthens the heal from the shield "beats" (the "beats" themselves are faster too), and this state will stay active even if you switch her out.
** [[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason enters a "bike mode" where she drives around with her bike, repeatedly spawning laser cannons that [[BeamSpam spam beams]] at the enemies, and can also [[CarFu attack with the bike itself]]. She also slowly [[HealThyself heals herself]] for as long as the mode lasts.]]
* SupportPartyMember: Most of her suits have supportive capabilities in one way or another. There are two exceptions to this:
** Black Nucleus has a lot of firepower, including her Ultimate Skill, which straight up deal high damage, while having little-to-no support capabilities.
** [[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason goes similarly, and is also the first Bronya that mainly deals [[AnIcePerson (ice) elemental damage]].[[note]]Snowy Sniper, despite her own control over ice, is only limited to freezing enemies with it.[[/note]]]]
* TeleportSpam: Dark Bronya (the boss of Chapter 2) has an attack pattern where it disappears, then appears for an attack, then disappears again, which is then repeated for around 4-5 times.
* TerrifyingRescuer: In the supplementary comic detailing her backstory, when she rescues Seele from kidnappers, Seele noted that Bronya has a scary look on her face the whole time.
* ThirdPersonPerson: She almost always speaks of herself in third person; the early versions of the game made this even more unusual by having her refer to herself as "the Bronya". In her side story "Dilemma Dreamland", where she [[LaserGuidedAmnesia (temporarily) lost her memories]], she uses "I" ("watashi" in Japanese voiceover) normally until she regained her memories; in the supplementary comic detailing her backstory, she also used "I" normally. There's also a humorous moment in the dorms where Mei, after asking Bronya if she wants to join her in the library, tells her that Kiana is actually in the library studying; this apparently shocks her so much that she says "...I will go, too."
* ThisIsADrill: [[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason's normal attack combo has her manifesting multiple drills to strike the enemies from multiple sides. Her ChargedAttack, if she uses rocket launchers, will be modified to make her fire drill-tipped rockets.]]
* TimeMaster: As Dimension Breaker, she's able to manipulate space-time to lock enemies in a time-slowed state, either in her Perfect Defense, switch-in attack, QTE, or team skill.
* TragicKeepsake: Project Bunny 19c was given to her by Seele Vollerei as she sent Bronya back from the place she currently is in[[note]]i.e the Imaginary Space, where Seele ended up in after she fell victim to the experiment by Anti-Entropy[[/note]].
* UpgradedBoss: The Dark Bronya boss at the end of the "Final HOMU Fantasy" Co-op Raid stages is a stronger version of her as the boss of chapter 1. There, she can utilize multiple gravity spheres that [[YouWillNotEvadeMe drags you towards them]], create spheres that put you in Time Slow state, and uses powerful barrages of laser cannons. The explanation is that Bronya is hacking the titular game to give herself those abilities.
* UsedToBeASweetKid: Downplayed; she was a cold and brutally efficient ChildSoldier who nevertheless could still feel and express emotions, especially towards Seele. One of the diary entries of Seele's Quantum Diary shows that Bronya was kind to animals, too, with Seele noting that her cold gaze softens during so. The experiment done on her robbed her of her emotions (and the use of her legs), but her memories of the past (especially Seele) still remain. In the "Cyberangel" cinematic, it shows alternate possibilities of Bronya who appears happy and cheerful from childhood to adulthood, implying she is bound to be a happy person if only she had lived a normal life.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Kiana. Due to Kiana being more emotionally driven and impulsive, Bronya has a hard time comprehending the stuff she does, constantly cleaning up Kiana's mess and making sure she doesn't mess up too much. They also bicker and even fight a lot, especially when playing video games. Despite their differences, Bronya regards Kiana as the force that drives her, for Kiana's [[TheDeterminator determination to do her absolute best]] is what Bronya likes about her the most.
* WholeCostumeReference: As part of the collaboration event with ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'', Bronya is granted two costumes for her [[spoiler:Herrscher of Reason]] battlesuit; Ultraviolet Kinetik has a predominantly purple colour palette referencing Evangelion Unit-01, while Bestial Afterburn has elements of Asuka's ''Rebuild'' plugsuit. For both, Project Bunny 19C gets a similarly themed color change and cosmetic tweaks.
* TheWorfEffect: In ch. 22, despite her [[spoiler:going as Herrscher of Reason]], she still can't beat [[spoiler:Hua(?)]], showing that [[spoiler:Hua(?)'s Herrscher power, combined with the old Fu Hua's powers and abilities]], made her "unrivaled" compared to Bronya. Bronya knows she doesn't stand a chance against her [[spoiler:in the latter's own illusiory world]], but at least [[WeNeedADistraction she could buy enough time for her friends to make a strategy against her enemy]].
* YouWillNotEvadeMe:
** Valkyrie Chariot's ultimate skill creates a black hole that sucks enemies in, deals multiple hits and (if she's ranked S) explodes at the end, dealing more damage and stunning enemies caught within. During the skill, [[InvulnerableAttack she's invincible]], and she'll stay there until the move ends even if you tag her partner in.
** If Wolf's Dawn is ranked SSS, her ultimate skill can be modified to make the enemies get sucked in towards the Project Bunny's position.
** After her Augment Core upgrade, Yamabuki Armor's QTE and Ultimate Skill can create mini black holes that pull enemies towards her.

In "A Post-Honkai Odyssey" open world, 8 years from the present, Bronya has become a video game producer and a street racer on some occasions. Despite the fame and fortune she received, she never forgot her duties and responsibilities as a warrior who protects humanity.

* BoobsOfSteel: In ''A Post-Honkai Odyssey'', she has a noticeable bust size increase, signifying her status as one of the seasoned Valkyrie.

* VitriolicBestBuds: With Kiana. Due to Kiana being more emotionally driven and impulsivity, Bronya has a hard time comprehending the stuff she does, constantly cleaning up Kiana's mess and making sure she doesn't mess up too much. They also bicker and even fight a lot while playing video games.

->''"Kiana doesn't care about that, cause she's an idiot! ...And an idiot doesn't know when to quit!"''

* ContraltoOfDanger: Her adult self in A Post Honkai Odyssey speaks with the same deadpan tone as the main story's Bronya, but has a noticeably lower pitch. Fittingly, when Bronya re-enters the battlefield in APHO, she takes a much more hands-on approach to combat than anything she previously displayed.

Her signature weapons are Quantum Destroyer Type-2 (for Valkyrie Chariot and Dimension Breaker), Briareus Pri[[note]]pri-arm: Briareus EX[[/note]] (for Wolf's Dawn), 5th Sacred Relic (for Snowy Sniper), Star Shatterer: Vikrant (for Yamabuki Armor and Drive Kometa), Star Destroyer 19C[[note]]pri-arm: Star Destroyer 19C-X[[/note]] (for Black Nucleus), Key of Reason[[note]]pri-arm: Domain of Revelation[[/note]] and Star of Eden: Anti-Entropy[[note]]pri-arm: Star of Eden: World[[/note]][[spoiler:(for Herrscher of Reason)]], Falcon Flare 0019[[note]]pri-arm: Falcon Flare: Final[[/note]] (for Silverwing: N-EX), and Key of Ascension[[note]]pri-arm: Domain of Ascension: Truth Continuity[[/note]][[spoiler:(for Herrscher of Truth)]].

* ThirdPersonPerson: A strange twist, in that she refers to herself as "the Bronya", almost as if she has somehow dissociated from herself. In her side story "Dilemma Dreamland", where she [[LaserGuidedAmnesia (temporarily) lost her memories]], she uses "I" ("watashi" in Japanese voiceover) normally until she regained her memories; in the supplementary comic detailing her backstory, she also used "I" normally. There's also a humorous moment in the dorms where Mei, after asking Bronya if she wants to join her in the library, tells her that Kiana is actually in the library studying; this apparently shocks her so much that she says "...I will go, too."

* ExoticEyeDesigns: In the "Cyberangel" video, [[spoiler:right before she unleashed the final barrage on Tlaloc, her eyes gain a design of 2 half circles and a gear inside them; these are the same eye designs as Welt's when he uses his Herrscher powers, indicating that Bronya truly has inherited the powers of the Herrscher of Reason]]. In Chapter XXXII, Bronya's NextTierPowerUp as [[spoiler:the Herrscher of Truth]] has her pupils turn red. This change sticks well into APHO's era where she has become an adult, signifying her status as a former Herrscher.
