The faction named as starting control in the header holds the biome at the start. Control can change during play, and quests follow whoever controls the biome at the time. The faction table also gives [[F13 Marrowheat Dominion]] a foothold here, so the biome is contested.

== Favor ==
Emberwake Steppe has its own [[Biome Favor|favor]] track. It is separate from faction reputation and does not change the ending.
* Biome-line quests: 25. Each one gives +10 favor.
* Finish all 25 to become '''Favored''' here (+20 bonus). Highest favor: 270.
* Chain order: [[Q0226 The Emberwake Toll|Q0226]] → [[Q0227 Emberwake Watch|Q0227]] → [[Q0228 Emberwake Vault Count|Q0228]] → [[Q0229 The Cistern Debt — Emberwake Steppe|Q0229]] → [[Q0230 Firegrass Crystal for the Skyreach Covenant|Q0230]] → [[Q0231 Discharge Season|Q0231]] → [[Q0232 What the Emberwake Vault Hums|Q0232]] → [[Q0233 After the Cistern Draw — Emberwake Steppe|Q0233]] → [[Q0234 Skyreach Covenant on the Emberwake Line|Q0234]].
* Ground quests (a second chain that opens after [[Q0226 The Emberwake Toll|Q0226]]): [[Q1001 The Emberwake Settlement Muster|Q1001]] → [[Q1002 Steppehorn Cull at Ember Run|Q1002]] → [[Q1003 Pyritic Tally Below Static Storm Hollow|Q1003]] → [[Q1004 Clearing the Cistern of Emberwake|Q1004]] → [[Q1005 Firegrass Crystal Levy for the Marrowheat Dominion|Q1005]] → [[Q1006 Burnmane Tracks Near Emberwake Settlement|Q1006]] → [[Q1007 The Ember Crystal Seam|Q1007]] → [[Q1008 Static Amber at the Cistern of Emberwake|Q1008]] → [[Q1009 The Emberwake Outpost Ledger|Q1009]] → [[Q1010 Static Discharge Drill|Q1010]] → [[Q1011 Salvage Below Static Storm Hollow|Q1011]] → [[Q1012 Waterline Watch at the Cistern of Emberwake|Q1012]] → [[Q1013 Supply Line to Static Storm Hollow|Q1013]] → [[Q1014 Steppescale Count Around Ember Run|Q1014]] → [[Q1015 Ember Grass Resin Under Guard|Q1015]] → [[Q1016 Holding Ember Run|Q1016]].
* Favor is lost: −5 for each quest done for [[F13 Marrowheat Dominion]] outside this biome. That faction contests this biome. Quests in this biome never cost favor here.
* Skipping quests gives no favor.

Ground

A vast firegrass savanna where combustion is triggered by static storms and the grass itself is an evolutionary pyromaniac. The steppe burns in sections through a cycle that has maintained itself for ten thousand years. Creatures here are completely fireproof.

Settlements

Name Type Population Controlling faction
Emberwake Settlement Faction Outpost 1500 F01 Ashen League
Ember Run primary N/A F01 Ashen League
Static Storm Hollow secondary N/A F01 Ashen League

Settlement pages: Ember Run, Emberwake Settlement, Static Storm Hollow. Settlement rows on the faction civilization table for this biome also have pages: Emberwake Garrison. All settlements: Settlements.

Factions present

Faction Where recorded
F01 Ashen League Starting control. Controlling faction on every recorded settlement row.
F13 Marrowheat Dominion Contested. The faction table gives it a foothold here. Seven NPC rows (NPC0728 to NPC0734).
F02 Verdania Collective Seven of the fourteen NPC rows.

NPCs here from other factions: F13 Marrowheat Dominion (7 NPC rows) and F02 Verdania Collective (7 NPC rows). An NPC can belong to any faction and live or work in a settlement controlled by another faction.

The faction named as starting control in the header holds the biome at the start. Control can change during play, and quests follow whoever controls the biome at the time. The faction table also gives F13 Marrowheat Dominion a foothold here, so the biome is contested.

Resources

Full table with IDs and node details: B026 Emberwake Steppe/Resources.


Signature, primary, secondary, and minerals

These rows are recorded on the B026 resource table and were not in the gatherable list above.

ID Name Type Rarity
SIG-026 Firegrass Crystal SIGNATURE Rare–Legendary
PRI-026 Ember Grass Resin PRIMARY Uncommon–Rare
SEC-026 Static Amber SECONDARY Common–Uncommon
MIN-COM-PYR Pyritic Common Mineral Common
MIN-COM-EMB Ember Ore Common Mineral Common
MIN-COM-FIR Fire Slate Common Mineral Common
MIN-RARE-EMB Ember Crystal Rare Mineral Rare
MIN-RARE-FIR Fire Glass Rare Mineral Rare

Harvest

The harvestable index records counts for biome 026 only: flora 4, ore 3, trees 3, total 10. That index does not name the rows, so those counts are not assigned to names here.

Named flora recorded for Emberwake Steppe:

ID Name Harvestable
FLORA-MARR-026 Marrowheat No
FLORA-SAVA-026 Savanngrass Yes
FLORA-FIRE-026 Firegrass No
FLORA-FLAR-026 Flarevine No

One named flora row is marked harvestable. That does not match the harvestable index count of 4. Duplicate flora ids are left as separate recorded rows. Both figures are left as recorded. The ecological-role cell says PROTECTED SPECIES on Marrowheat, Firegrass, Flarevine, Ember Shrub, Savannah Grass, Heatroot, and Amber Petal Bloom.

Not recorded: a named tree list, and a named ore list that matches the index counts of 3 and 3.

Arena Ember Run
Arena description The boss encounter takes place in the heart of Emberwake Steppe's most extreme terrain feature. The arena is shaped by warm temperate conditions — no neutral ground exists. In 0.68g, player jump arcs extend 47% further than Earth-equivalent, and boss knockback sends players 35% further than expected.
Arena size (m) 84
Arena terrain Static-storm firegrass steppe
Arena hazard Static Discharge
Unique material Open Scale
Ground blurb The Open Prowler the Ancient is the apex expression of Emberwake Steppe's ecosystem — a creature that has been shaped by warm temperate conditions across centuries of adaptation in 0.68g. It is not simply dangerous. It is what Emberwake Steppe would be if the biome could choose to fight.

Weather

The atmosphere row records weather patterns Static Storm, Ember Wind, and Fire. Those three names are not rows in the weather table. Six weather rows are recorded for this biome.

ID Name Code Recorded effect
WX-026-STORM Storm STORM Severe visibility reduction. Player movement restricted. Pack predators shelter. Ambush predators peak activity.
WX-026-ASH Ashfall ASH Reduces visibility. Ash-adapted creatures +15% aggro. Node guardian activity increases. Firegrass Crystal harvest modified.
WX-026-SNOW Cold Event SNOW Winter only. Fauna density minimum. Node guardians reduced patrol. Resource yield -20% all types.
WX-026-ANY Any Weather ANY Weather-independent spawn — present in all conditions.
WX-026-RAIN Rain/Mist RAIN Rare moisture event. Suppresses primary hazard temporarily. Most comfortable traversal conditions.
WX-026-CLEAR Clear Sky CLEAR Maximum K3V amber light. Visibility maximum. Best navigation conditions. Standard resource yields.

Spawn entries recorded on those rows: Storm 16, Ashfall 12, Cold Event 13, Any Weather 11, Rain/Mist 9, Clear Sky 9. Night-multiplier entries above 2.0 recorded on those rows: Storm 3, Ashfall 6, Cold Event 3, Any Weather 3, Rain/Mist 2, Clear Sky 2.

Mobs

Seven named mobs are recorded. One further row records 63 additional spawn-table entries that are not named. Those 63 are not listed as species here. That summary row records 15 corrupted variants and 0 event overrides. Its weather distribution cells are all zero. Burnhorn has archetype Node Guardian but the node-guardian cell reads False. Both are left as recorded.

The node-network file records a guardian name string on each of these nine nodes. Those strings are not rows in the named mob list above. The biome file, used in this table, records no guardian on the five positive nodes and a guardian present on the four negative nodes. Both records are left as recorded.

World events

Three world events are recorded. Where the duration cell and the notes cell disagree, both figures are left as recorded. The biome-pack names and the world-event master names disagree. Both name sets are left as recorded.

Recipes

Sixteen recipes are recorded, one for each item above. Output quantity is 1. The third material cell is blank on every row, so no third material is listed. Recipe unlock cells use T1 Known, T2 Trusted, T3 Honoured, and T4 Honoured. The faction reputation row names those bands T1 Neutral, T2 Friendly, T3 Honoured, and T4 Revered. Both wordings are left as recorded.

Image prompt

Text only. No file is uploaded. The prompt below is the recorded overview prompt for B026, followed by the ground description and settlement names already on this page.

Recorded overview prompt: ABERNON game concept art, Biome 026 Emberwake Steppe, K3V amber light, warm_temperate environment, 0.68g low gravity, Ashen League faction territory, AAA game quality, cinematic painterly, panoramic establishing shot, biome landscape at K3V amber light, faction settlement visible, atmosphere establishes biome identity.

Detailed prompt for an image creator: Painterly cinematic establishing shot of Emberwake Steppe, biome 026, warm temperate, under K3V amber light at 0.68g. A vast firegrass savanna where combustion is triggered by static storms and the grass itself is an evolutionary pyromaniac. The steppe burns in sections through a cycle that has maintained itself for ten thousand years. Creatures here are completely fireproof. Terrain recorded as static-storm firegrass steppe. Open grassland under the amber K3V sun. Visibility is high. So is exposure to what hunts you. Static Discharge is the recorded primary hazard. Firegrass Crystal is the signature resource. Recorded colour palette: golden brown, amber, dust. The Ashen League settlement Emberwake Settlement is visible, with Ember Run and Static Storm Hollow in the same territory. AAA game concept art, faction territory readable in the architecture, no text in the image.

The image-prompt table also records twenty ungenerated prompts, IMG00501 through IMG00520. Each uses this recorded stem, with the type name in place of the scene type: AAA game concept art, Emberwake Steppe, warm temperate biome, [type], open amber savannah, heat shimmer, marrowheat plains, Static Discharge environmental hazard visible, Unreal Engine 5 quality, painterly, cinematic lighting, amber K3V star palette, alien yet familiar world aesthetic.
