Browse chip rewards, calculate claims, and price out purchases. This page is only a helper. Staff still updates accounts manually.
Welcome to the Shadow Market, the beating heart of survival and ambition in Embrathis. This isn’t just any market. It’s where the chips you earn through quests, rebellion work, exploration, character growth, and OOC tasks come alive. Your hard-won currency buys more than gear; it fuels your story. Unlock new powers, rare artifacts, character upgrades, and encounters that can push your journey into dangerous, unforgettable territory.
The Shadow Market is a realm of choices and consequences. Every chip spent can ripple outward, shaping your alliances, your reputation, and even the fate of Embrathis itself. Chips here are more than currency. They are leverage, renown, and the spark that can turn a quiet path into a clash of destiny. From forbidden relics to whispered secrets, every purchase opens a door to change. Whether you’re hunting for strength, influence, or something stranger still, the Shadow Market ensures no story remains untouched by its weight.
HOW CHIPS ARE TRACKED:
SoS now uses an on-site chip system. Some chips are awarded automatically when the site detects that you have completed certain rewards, such as character creation, thread completion, board visits, post milestones, Random Encounter participation, and qualifying quest/event thread activity. Other chips still need to be submitted manually for staff review. Manual submissions are used for rewards that the site cannot automatically verify, purchases that need staff handling, special rewards, corrections, or anything marked as “submit.”
To submit a manual chip claim, go to:
User CP → Submit Chip Claim
Include the reward you are claiming, the character or account involved, the chip amount if needed, a proof link, and any notes staff need to understand the claim. Once submitted, your claim will wait in the staff queue. Chips are not added until staff approves the claim.
You can check your submitted claims at:
User CP → My Chip Claims
Approved claims award chips. Denied claims do not award chips. If something was already paid automatically, please do not submit it again unless staff asks you to.
