Kind of… but (SPOILERS):

Embers are basically manifestations of a character’s experiences, they represent who they are. If the person changes, the ember changes too (or maybe even disappears). Main characters' embers are also tied to their emotional bond with Luke.

• Burry (Amicus Dei):
  He can summon his brothers' memories as an ice wolf pack. He wants to preserve their memory and somehow bring them back. His bond with Luke is that Luke gives him a new sense of purpose. Also, Luke helped him to find his brothers.

• Rune (Echoes of Memories):
  Through canine empathy, he projects Moon’s memories onto the person he sees as his savior (Luke). He wants to be saved, like a damsel in distress. His bond with Luke is pretty clear: Luke is his hero.

• Max (Primal Palm?):
  He doesn’t really have an offensive or defensive ember (honestly, I’m not even sure he has one), but his “power” is more supportive. He boosts and encourages others (when he used "primal palm" on Luke it triggered his mana vision for a moment). He just wants to keep everyone together. His bond with Luke is that Luke gave him a new life with friends.

• Alon (Dance with Wolves):
  He can move through shadows. It probably reflects his desire to be truly free and to stay hidden from the Observer. As long as the Observer exists, he’s never really free. His bond with Luke is still kinda unclear.

This also kinda ties into their final side sex scenes:

• Burry is into punishment/BDSM, probably because of guilt over what happened with his brothers (maybe even wanting to be eaten by them, like they did to Luke in the battle with Teak).
• Rune likes being submissive (weak), especially with someone stronger than him, he leans into the whole “saved by his hero” thing.
• Max is into orgies, which fits his whole “keep everyone together” mindset.
• Alon doesn’t really have a proper scene yet (the tavern one doesn’t really count).
