Our Discord server is undergoing major changes in preparation for its reopening! Here’s what you should know:
A new set of rules for Discord have been completed. You’ll see the updated rules a few days before our server reopens which should give everyone plenty of time to review.
To make our enforcement more fair and context-sensitive, we’ve updated our community management approach: Discord will now operate under its own set of policies and consequences, separate from the website. That means actions on one platform won’t automatically carry over to the other, each space will be moderated on its own terms.
We’re cleaning up our Discord to make it easier to use. Here’s what’s happening:
Channel cleanup: Inactive channels are being archived, and related topics are being combined into fewer, more useful spaces.
Archiving, not deleting: Every message and file has been archived. You won’t lose anything.
Site-only content: Some discussions (like commissions and giveaways) will now live on the website instead of Discord.
Need something? Just ask a moderator for any archived info, we'll be happy to grab it for you!
This update should make it faster to find the conversations you care about while keeping our community spaces fresh and easy to navigate. The server remains closed for now while we finish backend work, but we’re making steady progress.
We’ve implemented a formal Code of Conduct for all staff to ensure consistent and respectful handling of every situation. Every team member will be trained on these guidelines and will be held accountable to them moving forward.
We'll also be removing all in-game references to Ember as per his wishes. We have started on this already, but over the next few days you’ll see:
Item renames: Any assets bearing Ember’s name will get new ones.
Art swaps: Any artwork featuring Ember will be replaced.
None of this will impact gameplay or story, just cosmetic and naming tweaks.
Thanks for your patience while we work on changing the remaining references. If you spot anything we missed, please let us know!
A Familiar Face, Fresh New Look
As part of our visual update efforts, we’re excited to unveil the newly refreshed artwork for one of Santae’s core NPCs. Skylar Fieldstone (They/Them), a seasoned researcher and loyal guide to many Adventurers.
Skylar has been a cornerstone of Santae’s world since the earliest days, known for their calm wisdom and deep knowledge of magical anomalies. Our art team has worked carefully to maintain their iconic presence while updating their appearance to better match Santae’s evolving style and tone.
We hope you love Skylar’s new look as much as we do. More NPC updates will be rolling out over the coming months, and we can’t wait to share what’s next.
