Embers is an Owlbear Rodeo extension that allows you to play animated spells and abilities.

Many thanks to Aji Banawan for his work on Embers' UI.

How to use it

Basic usage

To play a spell or ability effect with Embers, you can select the "Cast spell" tool on the tools panel, or press shift+C.

Tool Panel

After this, you will enter the default "Add Targets" tool mode, which allows you to click on the scene and add targets to your spell. If you mess up, you can remove a target by selecting the "Remove Target" (or pressing R), and clicking on a target, or remove all targets using the "Clear Selection" button (or pressing X); you can then go back to adding more targets by clicking on the previous tool mode (or pressing A). Once you are done selecting all your targets, you can select the spell you want to cast (by clicking on the "Select Spell" action or pressing .) and either click on the "Cast Selected Spell" tool action or press Enter to play the effect.

Tool Modes

  • Add Target (A)

  • Cast Selected Spell (Enter)
  • Select Spell (.)
  • Clear Selection (X)

Effect Customization

When the "Cast spell" tool is activated, if Embers' action panel is opened, it will switch to the "Spell Details" tab and show the currently selected spell's properties. Some of these can be edited, like the color of some spells, and will immediately take effect.
