Honkai: Star Rail is like many other gacha JRPG games. It allows you to make friends and then share your best characters with those friends. We have a tutorial on making friends in Honkai: Star Rail already. In this article, we’ll talk about support characters and Starfaring companions, what they do, and how they work.
quick answer
In Honkai: Star Rail, Support Characters are characters that you allow your friends to borrow to perform missions. They receive help and you get rewards. Starfaring Companions add some magic to your profile by showing you your favorite characters, but they don’t actually do anything. You can change both in the Trailblazer Profile menu.

How do support characters work?

Supporting characters function as they do in most gacha JRPGs. People on your friends list can use it while doing tasks to add support and help. Likewise, when you go out and do things, you can take a support figure from one of your friends with you. Thus, we recommend using your strongest character so that your friends can get as much help as possible.
You will also get rewards when your friends use your support character. You can return to the Support Characters screen using the tutorial in the previous section to view and claim any rewards you receive. As of this writing, you can accumulate up to 60,000 credits. Once you reach the cap, you will earn nothing until you claim your reward.
That’s about it with support characters. It’s something we haven’t seen in a gacha RPG before, and thankfully Honkai: Star Rail keeps it pretty simple.
How do Starfaring companions work?

Starfaring companions are an aesthetic addition to your Trailblazer profile. They don’t do anything. The option is there for you to show your favorite characters. Many gamers will probably use this to show off their favorites. Others might use it to show off their rare draws or strongest characters.
You can see your friends’ Starfaring companions when you view their Trailblazer profiles from your friends list. They and others will be able to see yours as well. Otherwise, this is really for Starfaring owners. It’s just a little magic for your profile.
