The Ember Setting

The Ember setting revolves around the Heart of Ember, a powerful and unpredictable force of creation, the origin of life and source of divinity!

There are no alternate planes of existence in Ember. The Elemental Moons, Inner Realms, the Weave, and the terrible Abyss beyond define the primordial forces.

Ember features pantheons of Elder Gods who embody fundamental metaphysical laws, Shard Gods who were once mortals who ascended to divinity, the Tyraphem, Casia and Daemos of the Inner Realms, and the dread unknowable Outer Gods from beyond the Weave.

Ancestries and Cultures

Ember features 16 playable ancestries, all of which are intertwined with its cosmology and history. Some align with elements of air, earth, fire, or water. Others have relationships with the Inner Realms or even more mysterious origins. Even Humans in Ember are much more than they appear at first glance.

The world of Ember is full of vibrant and nuanced cultures, all of which have unique traditions, philosophies, and motivations. Cultures offer a wide array of touchstones: world-traveling merchants, daring warriors, ambitious imperials, lunar worshippers, zealous theocracies, and many more—each tied to the history of the world.
