Character and Family
A Character is the profile you take into future runs. Each profile has a signature Spell and a Family affinity. The Family points you toward a related group of Spells, its Synergy, and its Rite route.
The Character screen lets you browse a profile, inspect its stats and starting Spell, read its Family, and select it when access is available.
Profile catalogue
| Character | Access | Signature Spell | Family |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cinder | Available from the start. | Chakra Arrow | Holy Moly |
| Moonwake Dancer | Complete Chapter I on Mortal to unlock. | Death Trail | Stay, Strong, Soul |
| Ashbound Warden | Permanent character and Family pair ownership. | Spirit Fire | Flame Wrath |
| Veil Oracle | Permanent character and Family pair ownership. | Lightning | Final Judgement |
Browsing a profile can show its signature Spell and Family even when the profile cannot be selected. A preview does not unlock the Character or its Family.
Pair ownership and offers
Ashbound Warden / Flame Wrath and Veil Oracle / Final Judgement are character and Family pairs. Permanent access comes from verified ownership of the complete pair. A new purchase is available only when the game has an active offer for that pair; use the in-game availability and price. An unavailable offer does not remove a pair you already own.
Temporary test access
On builds that enable test access, accounts marked for testing can select catalogue Characters and their Families even without the permanent unlock or pair ownership. The Character screen can label this AVAILABLE DURING TESTING. A test-enabled build alone does not grant this access to every account.
Temporary selection does not create permanent ownership. Completing Chapter I on Mortal is still Moonwake Dancer’s permanent unlock, and Ashbound Warden and Veil Oracle still use pair ownership. When test access ends, new selections follow those permanent rules.
Family mastery
Each Character has an ability tied to its paired Family: Cinder has Spirit Orbit, Ashbound Warden has Ashen Bulwark, Moonwake Dancer has Moonwake Shadow, and Veil Oracle has Oracle’s Tempo. Activate the Family Synergy, then make 10 further ordinary upgrades to its member Spells in that run. See Families for effects and the exact counting rules.
Choosing a profile
Select a Character before starting a future run. Your choice changes the profile, signature Spell, and Family context used by that run; it does not replace the run’s temporary level-up choices.
Family access and Character access travel together for the progression-locked profile. The Collections page shows the spell-and-Rite checklists for every Family record, including Families whose associated Character is not currently selectable.
