✨ Auras

Auras

Purely cosmetic effects that trail around you as you play: free themed auras for aligning to an Era, plus elaborate premium cosmetics that beat, swirl, and glow behind you. Manage them all with /auras.

What Auras Are #

An aura is a living particle effect that follows you everywhere: wings on your back, a halo overhead, a galaxy in orbit around your waist. They are 100% cosmetic: an aura never changes a single stat, so wearing one costs you nothing but shows off how far you've come. You hold many at once and pick which one to display, or none, from the aura menu.

Open the aura menu with /auras. It lists every aura you've unlocked; click one to equip it, or toggle your aura off entirely. Most auras can be previewed on yourself before you commit, so you can see the effect in action first.

Auras scale with your Era tier: the further you've climbed, the fuller and brighter the effect renders. A brand-new alignment aura is a modest trail; the same aura on a late-Era player is a dense, dramatic display. Directional auras (wings, capes, orbits) sit correctly on your back and turn with your body, so they never wash across your view when you look around.

📜
Every aura is a mark of the timeline you've walked: the deep blues of early time, the gilded light of ascension, or the whirl of a galaxy caught in your wake.

Alignment Auras (Free) #

Each of the four Era Alignments grants its own themed particle aura, free, just for aligning. You don't buy these; choosing that alignment unlocks the matching aura automatically, and it stays available to select whenever you're on that alignment.

Genesis Genesis Deep blues of early time, with light and deep dust and rising sparks.
Ascension Ascension Gilded gold and white light shed as you rise.
Carnage Carnage Embers and blood-red dust wreathing you in flame.
Tectonic Tectonic Kicked-up earth and copper dust, with crits and copper flecks at high tiers.
Auras are decoupled from your alignment once unlocked through other means, but an alignment aura is tied to being on that alignment. Note that choosing or changing an alignment triggers a full Era reset, so switch alignments for the gameplay, not just the aura. Your items and gear are never lost to that reset.

Premium Auras #

Eight elaborate premium auras are bought with Gems. Each is a permanent, one-time unlock. Once you own it, it's yours forever and it's never lost to any reset. Prices run from 250 to 600 Gems.

Buy Gems from the webstore, then spend them in-game with /store (also /buy). Premium auras live in the store's Cosmetics category. Real-money purchases only ever grant convenience and cosmetics, and an aura can never be anything you can't reach by playing.

How to Get Them & the Rotation #

Premium auras aren't all on sale at once. They cycle through two rotating shops, so there's always a fresh lineup to check.

Alignment auras
Free with the matching Era Alignment. No purchase, always available while you're on that alignment.
Gems shop rotation
The gem store (/store) features 3 premium auras at a time, advancing to a new batch every 2 days. All eight premium auras cycle through, so wait a couple of days if the one you want isn't up yet.
Vote Shop featured aura
The Vote Shop (/voteShop) features a single premium aura you can buy with Vote Tokens instead of Gems, a completely free route. The featured aura changes every 24 hours and costs 750 Vote Tokens.
🗳
Prefer not to spend Gems? Vote daily and save your Vote Tokens for the featured aura. It rotates through a handful of the premium auras over time, so patient voting can earn you a premium cosmetic for free. See Voting & the Vote Shop.

Both shops let you right-click to preview an aura on yourself before buying, so you always know exactly what you're getting.
