Vi Grey: Character Summary

Ember King
Powers: Foresight and Light

Ember King is the former best-friend of Vi Grey, and later becomes close friends (and potential love interest) of Mira Mercer. Ember's parents were killed during the attack on the Grey Manor in 2012, when she was only fourteen years old. Due to her powers with foresight, Ember was taken in by her grandmother, Kidona, and trained amongst the monks, but was ultimately kicked out as she had a tendency to keep escaping the estate. Ember has always searched for more meaning in her life and connection to her parents.

Volume 1: Ember is first encountered alongside Billy when the duo leave The Society in search of Vi Grey. After encountering Mira, they help her to impersonate Vi in order to help Mira to learn about her past, and to uncover the secrets of the Grey Legacy. During their scheme, Ember and Mira grow closer and can either become good friends, or lovers, depending on player choice.

Volume 2: Ember is not shown in this volume, as it is revealed that she ran away from The Society following a disagreement (or break-up) with Vi. While Vi initially searched for Ember, she eventually gave up as more pressing issues were arising, and she wanted to give Ember space. At the end of the volume, we discover that Vi hired a Private Investigator to search for Ember, and they learn that she is hiding somewhere in China.

Volume 3: Vi travels to North China in pursuit of Ember, and eventually discovers that she has fallen in with a group of vampire royals there and become the thrall of Christine, a vampire princess seeking to reclaim her throne. Though Ember reassures Vi that she and Christine are friends only, they can eventually become lovers. The player also have a large amount of control over Ember and Christine's relationship, and the relationship between Vi and Ember:

Option 1 - By choosing to aid and support Thomas, Christine's brother, into assuming the throne, Christine will trade her soul to the demon ________, and become evil. Ember will remain friends with Vi if this option is chosen, but they will be unable to continue a romantic relationship with her.

Option 2 - Vi helps Christine to assume the throne, and allows Ember and Christine to pursue a romantic relationship with each other. Ember returns to The Society with Vi, though continues to have a healthy long-distance relationship with Christine, until she is able to return to her. Alternatively, Vi chooses to reignite her relationship with Ember, and Ember and Christine remain good friends (though Christine is not mentioned as much in V4 and V5)

Option 3 - Vi helps Christine to defeat Thomas, but recommends that Christine does not ascend the throne and abolishes the monarcy. If Vi allows Christine and Ember to date, Christine comes with them when they return to The Society. If Vi chooses to reignite her relationship with Ember, then Christine remains in China to aid the new order of vampires to thrive.
