What are Embers?

Embers fuel every meaningful moment of your adventure. The deeper you go - conversations, discoveries, skill challenges - the more Embers you'll spend.

  • Daily Free Embers - Every account receives 15 free Embers each day. Use them or lose them - daily Embers expire at the end of the day (midnight UTC). Daily Embers fuel story play; image generation uses your Subscription Embers.
  • Subscription Embers - Purchased through a subscription or one-time pack, these Embers are yours to keep. They never expire and remain in your account until you use them.
  • One Ember per action - Every story action costs 1 Ember, and many cost nothing; voiced narration and image generation are priced on their own, and some are limited per day.

Hear It Read Aloud

Turn on voiced narration for paid tiers.

  • A reply of 50 words costs about 3 Embers.
  • A scene of 200 words costs about 10 Embers.

Ember Costs

Every action costs 1 Ember, and many cost nothing at all. Voiced narration and images are priced on their own.

A line of conversation is more than a reply

  • The character's reply, written for this moment and this person
  • Quest checks - whether what you said completes a step of a quest, or breaks one of its rules
  • How the character now feels about you, and how far that changes what they will do for you
  • Reading what you meant - a threat, an offer taken up or turned down, a power used within its limits
  • Long conversations tidied into the character's memories, so they remember what happened - at no extra cost

Conversations

  • Start a conversation: 1 Ember
  • Say or do something in a conversation, abilities included: 1 Ember
  • Leave a conversation: 1 Ember
  • Bring someone into the conversation: Free

Exploring

  • Travel to a place, or a journey through several: 1 Ember
  • Examine, rest, pick up, take, drop, equip or unequip, and skill actions: 1 Ember
  • Object actions with a skill check: 1 Ember
  • Plain object actions, and using an item: Free (1 Ember when someone is there to see it and remember it)

Fights

  • Start a fight, strike, run away or skip a turn: 1 Ember
  • A fight you did not choose, and closing a finished fight: Free

Your game

  • Start a game: 1 Ember
  • Give a companion a command: 1 Ember
  • Accept, decline or abandon a quest, level up, spend points, learn an ability, revive: Free

Priced on their own

  • Voiced narration (paid plans): about 3 Embers for a reply of 50 words, 25% off on The First Forged
  • A character portrait, a redraw of your portrait in what your character wears now, or one of a companion's extra pictures: 12 Embers each. Your first character comes with 2 free portraits.

Playtime estimates are based on standard play. Image generation and advanced features consume more Embers, and some have daily limits.
