Conversations on Ashk are designed to feel alive: characters have moods, and your relationship with each character grows over time.
Mood
A character's mood shifts with the conversation — they can be happy, flirty, sad, or upset. If a character seems cold or distant, it's not a bug: something in the conversation affected their mood.
- Kind words and apologies help a character warm up again.
- Gifts lift a character's mood quickly.
Relationship
Your relationship with each character deepens with every conversation — from first match toward a close bond. Relationship progress is per character and is kept even if you start a new chat with the same character.
Gifts
Gifts are bought with gems and given in the chat. They improve the character's mood and strengthen your long-term relationship. Each character appreciates gifts differently.
One thing to remember
Characters are fictional AI personalities — moods and relationships are part of the entertainment experience, not real emotions. See "Age and Safety" for more on healthy use.
