🌍 The World of Ember
Welcome to the dream forged in flame.
💬 What Is The Ember Dream?
The Ember Dream is a living world — one shaped by myth, built by machines, fractured by blood, and fueled by prophecy. At its core lies the city of Ironspire, a sprawling steampunk metropolis forged atop dragon-buried ruins, surrounded by forgotten groves, corrupted magic, and dangerous truths.
This world is not just a backdrop — it remembers you. It tests you. And if you’re lucky, it awakens you.
Whether you’re here to explore as a roleplayer, storyteller, adventurer, or creator, this page is your portal to understanding the shape of the world beneath your feet.
