How to Play PyroChibis

PyroChibis are elemental fire spirit NFT heroes. Each hero has 9 randomized traits that determine their rarity tier and visual appearance. Your goal is to build a powerful collection, raid dungeons for shards, and craft items to summon even stronger heroes.

The game runs on FOGO chain, a Solana-compatible blockchain. In-game currency is FOGO. Future versions will support additional blockchain tokens.

The PyroChibis economy revolves around three layers:

• ▸ FOGO — primary currency. Used to buy items in the Store.
• ▸ Ember Seals 🔴 — required to summon. Buy from Store or craft from Ember Shards.
• ▸ Shards — looted from dungeons. Craft into Seals, Pacts, and Blessings.

Summoning costs 1 Ember Seal per ritual. You can optionally equip an Ancestral Pact and/or Sanctum Blessing to influence the outcome — both are consumed on summon. After the ritual animation completes, a summoning cinematic plays before your hero is revealed.

Every hero has 9 traits: Base Flame, Expression, Hat, Armor, Weapon, Wings, Aura, Pet, and Background. Each trait is independently rolled to a rarity tier.

Each trait contributes points to the hero's total score. A hero's Final Tier is determined by their total score across all 9 traits. Higher tier heroes deal significantly more power in dungeon raids.

Every PyroChibi belongs to one of 6 races, determined by the dominant bloodline traits rolled during summoning. Races affect dungeon power through race affinity bonuses — heroes fighting in a dungeon that favors their race deal significantly more power.

• ▸⚔️ Warrior — battle-forged bruisers. Shine in Ember Caves and Cyber Nexus.
• ▸😈 Demon — shadow-touched powerhouses. Best in Abyssal Rift.
• ▸👑 King — regal and commanding. Dominate Frostfire Wastes and Royal Sanctum.
• ▸🤖 Cyber — technological constructs. Favored in Cyber Nexus.
• ▸❄️ Frostfire — paradox elementals of ice and flame. Thrive in Frostfire Wastes.
• ▸🧚 Fairy — ethereal and elusive. Provide synergy bonuses in Abyssal Rift and Royal Sanctum.

A hero's race is detected from the proportion of racial traits across their 9 trait slots. Heroes with a strong majority of one race's traits are classified as Pure, while mixed heroes become Hybrids — contributing partial bonuses from both bloodlines.

The Ember Sanctum Store has four tabs:

• ▸ Ember Seals — buy summoning tokens (10 FOGO each). Features a preview video of the summoning ritual. Buy up to 10 at once.
• ▸ Race Pacts — buy bloodline pacts (20 FOGO each). Each pact card shows a race preview video. Buy up to 10 at once.
• ▸ Blessings — buy tier-boosting blessing orbs (20 FOGO each). Each blessing shows its artwork. Buy up to 10 at once.
• ▸ Craft — combine shards from dungeon raids into items

Send a team of heroes into a dungeon to loot shards. Raids are timed — your heroes are deployed and you return to claim the loot when the timer expires.

Every dungeon has a unique loot table. Ember Shards drop from every raid (amount depends on outcome). Bloodline and Essence Shards each have an independent chance to drop per raid.

* On a Conquest outcome there is a 50% chance to receive a second bloodline shard from the drop. Narrower outcomes scale the ember shard amount down proportionally.

Shards are the crafting currency of PyroChibis, looted exclusively from dungeon raids.

Crafting is done in the Store → Craft tab. Higher-difficulty dungeons drop rarer shards — Aether Essence only drops from Eternal Flame and Primordial Flameheart.

Every summoned hero is saved to your Collection. You can filter heroes by tier (Common → Legendary) and track your progress.

Click any hero card to open a full detail modal showing their image, tier, score, blessing, race, and all 9 traits with individual rarity badges.

Heroes in your collection are available for dungeon raids. The higher their tier and the more they match a dungeon's favored race, the more power they contribute.
