TALULAH & ENDFIELD
Exploring the Connection to Arknights' Iconic Antagonist
Last updated: 2026-01-23
? Quick Answer: Is Talulah in Endfield?
No - not confirmed. As of January 2026, Talulah has NOT been officially announced as a playable character in Arknights: Endfield. However, there is community speculation about a character named Lycia potentially being connected to Talulah. This remains unconfirmed fan theory.
Who is Talulah?
Talulah Artorius is one of the most important characters in the original Arknights storyline. She serves as the main antagonist in the first part of the Main Theme and becomes a major character in the second part.
- * Draco with royal Victorian bloodline
- * Daughter of Edward Artorius
- * Half-sister of Ch'en Hui-chieh
- * Raised in Lungmen, Yan
- * Founder of the Reunion Movement
- * Initially fought for Infected rights
- * Central to Chernobog incident
- * Complex antagonist with tragic arc
Talulah's story is one of tragedy and manipulation. Originally seeking to protect the Infected from persecution, she founded Reunion with her friend Alina. After Alina's death and manipulation by the ancient Ursine sorcerer Kashchey, Reunion transformed from a resistance movement into something far darker.
Talulah's Story (Spoiler Warning)
Origins
Born to Edward Artorius (a Victorian Draco noble in exile) and Wei Yenwu's sister (a Lung), Talulah spent her childhood in Lungmen alongside her half-sister Ch'en. Despite her royal bloodline, she witnessed the persecution of the Infected firsthand.
Reunion Movement
Angered by the treatment of the Infected, Talulah founded Reunion with Alina to protect those suffering from Oripathy. Her original vision was peaceful resistance and education, not violence. She allied with Patriot's guerrillas and FrostNova's forces.
The Turning Point
Everything changed with Alina's death. Unbeknownst to Talulah, the ancient Ursine Duke Kashchey had been manipulating events. When Talulah killed him, his consciousness transferred to her through his Originium Arts, slowly corrupting her from within.
Resolution
By the end of Chapter 8, Talulah is defeated by Rhodes Island and her half-sister Ch'en. With Kashchey's influence finally purged, the true Talulah's fate remains a point of interest for fans hoping to see her redemption arc continue.
The Endfield Connection
There are several reasons why fans speculate about Talulah appearing in Arknights: Endfield:
Endfield introduces "Reconveners" - special characters created from encrypted data of original Arknights operators. When these data shards are decrypted, they manifest as new individuals who retain partial memories and skills from their Terra counterparts but develop their own personalities. This system provides a lore-friendly way for beloved Arknights characters to appear in Endfield.
Some fans have noticed visual similarities between an Endfield character named Lycia and Talulah. Social media posts refer to Lycia as "Endfield Talulah" with hopes she becomes playable. However, this is community speculation only - no official confirmation exists linking these characters.
Ch'en Hui-chieh, Talulah's half-sister, appears in Arknights: Endfield (likely as a Reconvener or descendant). Since the sisters' relationship is central to Arknights' story, fans naturally wonder if Talulah will follow. Their reunion in Endfield's distant future setting could offer closure to their complicated history.
Understanding the Timeline
Arknights: Endfield takes place over 150 years in the future on Talos-II, a moon discovered through an Aethergate. The original Terrans who traveled there have been stranded since the gate's destruction. This massive time gap means characters from Arknights could only appear through:
- * Reconveners - Data-based recreations
- * Descendants - Family lineage
- * Long-lived races - Some Terra races live centuries
! Current Status (January 2026)

Character Design - Talulah's Draco design with fire powers is visually striking and would translate well to Endfield's combat.
