Paprika

Paprika, also known as Mingjiao in Chinese, is a 5-star Chain Medic Operator in the game Arknights. She is the first Chain Healer in the game, characterized by her healing ability that bounces between friendly units, up to three times, with each bounce decreasing in healing amount. Paprika was originally a Sarkaz mercenary from Columbia, who joined Rhodes Island after being rescued. Her backstory is tragic, losing her parents at a young age and being raised by her grandmother before dropping out of school due to Oripathy. She joined the Sarkaz mercenary group for a better life. During her involvement in the Londinium campaign, she grew disgusted with the mercenary group's cruelty and tried to leave, only to be captured, before being rescued by Rhodes Island. Paprika’s skills primarily focus on boosting her healing output. Her trait gives her an advantage when dealing with dispersed allies, but the limitations of the bounce mechanic make her less consistent than traditional multi-target medics. Nonetheless, Paprika is loved by players for her adorable appearance and unique healing style.
