Kafka is a five-star Lightning character who follows the Path of the Nihility. She's a member of the Stellaron Hunters who notoriously lives without fear, allowing her to perform dangerous feats all over the universe. Kafka has dedicated spot not only on the IPC's wanted list, but on yours and mine too. I'm a huge fan of her DPS-based kit despite being a Nihility character, which you can familiarize yourself with below.
Kafka's Skills in Honkai Star Rail

Talent: Gentle but Cruel
After an ally of Kafka's uses Basic ATK on an enemy target, Kafka immediately launches one follow-up attack and deals Lightning DMG equal to a percentage scale of her ATK to that target, with a 100 percent base chance to inflict Shock equivalent to that applied by her Ultimate to the attacked enemy target for two turns. This effect can only be triggered one time per turn.
