The Creator

I’m Onyxicca, creator of Emberosis.

I design dark fantasy tools, products, and writing for gamers, spoonies, and anyone living in a real body with real limits. My work is shaped by my own experience with multiple chronic illnesses, along with gaming, ritual, and the practical need for things that make difficult days feel more livable.

Here you’ll find gothic chronic illness goods, useful accessories, journals, recovery comforts, dark humor, member perks, and pieces made for people who are carrying more than most can see.

The writing side of this world lives at Between Battles, where I publish essays, reflections, dream pieces, and the monthly Letters Between Battles newsletter.

Emberosis is an independent project with real upkeep behind it: the shop, product selection, design work, blog, newsletter, tools, and future releases all take time, care, and monthly costs to sustain. Every purchase, membership, share, and kind word helps keep the work available and gives it room to keep growing.

The Manifesto

Before matches, before lighters, people kept embers. At night, they could not simply let it burn. A fire left open would spend itself too quickly. It might blaze for a while, then leave nothing useful by morning. So they changed how the fire was kept. They lowered the flame. They gathered the embers, covered them in ash, and kept enough heat alive for morning. This was called banking a fire. It did not end the night. It did not remove the cold. It did not make the fire larger than it was. It kept the fire from becoming ash. That is the banked fire at the center of Emberosis... (Continue reading)

Between Battles

Between Battles is the writing side of Emberosis: essays, reflections, dream pieces, useful finds, and hard-earned notes on chronic illness, burnout, rest, ambition, creativity, body limits, and the strange mechanics of trying to keep going without turning yourself into a machine.

You can read the public archive anytime. Emberosis members are also added to Letters Between Battles, the monthly email letter sent before it enters the public archive.

WHY SUPPORT MATTERS

Emberosis is built by one person, slowly and deliberately. Support helps fund the tools, designs, writing, experiments, and member features that keep this project alive. Every purchase, gift, membership, or affiliate click gives me more room to keep building without turning the work into another source of burnout.
