# Firstbound Rings
**A mark of the first to arrive.**
Collectible rings for Everfall’s founding community, with distinctive artwork and proposed in-game benefits.
## The collection
From a simple silver band to radiant gold and dark ruby, each design has its own colour, character and aura. Rarer designs bring richer visual detail, with the same proposed core benefits.
*Artwork concepts. Names, rarity distribution and reveal rules are still being developed.*
## What your ring unlocks
### Your identity
Ring-matched nameplates, chat bubbles and signature cosmetics. Show them when you want; keep your usual look when you don’t.
### Your progression
Extra saved squads, expedition opportunities and faster progression. Rings do not directly add damage or health.
### Future releases
Holder access to future Everfall collections and releases, with access details announced for each release.
The exact mechanics and final benefit package will be published before any sale. Saved squads, expedition options and companions remain proposals.
## Choose your style
Each ring will have a unique **nameplate and chat-bubble style**, matched to its colours and character. Infernal pairs dark metal with crimson accents; Celestial brings gold framing and amethyst details.
**Your style is optional.** Equip a Ring for its other benefits without displaying its cosmetics. Nameplates, chat bubbles, companions and visual effects can each be hidden independently, so you can keep your usual look.

*Cosmetic studies using original pixel frames and compact nameplates. These decorative styles are proposals, not implemented in-game. Cosmetic styling can be hidden for readability.*
## Meet your companion
A proposed **Ringbound Companion** could appear beside your character while a ring is equipped, with its own idle movements, arrival effect and victory reactions.
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Ember Familiar" %}
Infernal’s companion trails crimson cinders.
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Astral Guardian" %}
Celestial’s companion carries gold-and-amethyst light.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
Other ring designs could have their own wisps and familiars.
**More than a companion.** Ringbound Companions will have in-game utility beyond their appearance. Their abilities and where they can help will be revealed later.
Their visual presence can be hidden independently of the ring’s other styles.
*Original visual studies. Companion designs and utility are still in development; details will be revealed in a future announcement.*
## Adventures beyond the familiar
Holder-only expeditions and dungeon routes are planned as ways to pursue faster progression: new places for your squad to explore, with encounters and rewards tuned around the wider game.
These routes would provide **a progression opportunity, not an automatic stat boost from the ring**. Route names, rewards, dispatch times and competitive limits are still being designed. Shared holder benefits are not intended to scale with ring rarity.
*New scene studies assembled from existing game tiles and character assets. They illustrate future holder adventures, not playable holder routes.*
## Holder benefits
* **No direct combat-stat bonus.** Equipping a ring will not directly add damage or health. System bonuses, including eligible leaderboard multipliers, are a separate holder advantage. Rarity will not multiply combat stats.
* **Faster progression.** Holders will have ways to speed up their progress. This is a progression advantage; the exact systems, limits and competitive safeguards are still being designed.
* **Multiple rings.** Holding more than one Ring is intended to offer additional benefits. Details will be revealed later.
### System bonuses
Firstbound holders will always have some form of bonus or multiplier within selected Everfall systems. **Leaderboard multipliers** are one example; other holder advantages will be revealed over time.
These are system-specific benefits, separate from direct combat-stat bonuses. The affected leaderboards, scoring rules, eligibility and multiplier values will be announced before they apply. A leaderboard multiplier can improve a holder’s score or placement on the boards where it is enabled.
*The remaining systems and bonus details are being kept under wraps for now.*
### Future collections
Firstbound holders will have access to future Everfall collections and releases. Each release will announce its access process, availability and any pricing.
## When can I get one?
There is no active mint. Supply and mint price: **???**. Timing and final benefits remain undecided.
You do not need a Ring to join the referral phase.
[View mint information](/docs/collections/mint.md)
## A first look at the reveal
All Firstbound Rings will begin unrevealed, with the same sealed appearance. Their rarity and its colours emerge during the reveal.
The reveal will have its own dedicated experience, with a familiar guiding the awakening of your ring. The animation is being developed separately from this guide.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.
## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://everfall.gitbook.io/docs/collections/firstbound-sigils.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
