Created by Cawood Publishing

72-page book with Low, Mid, and High level options. New monsters, magic items, and more!

Latest Updates from Our Project:

Preview booklet being mailed out! Backerkit survey to come!
3 months ago – Mon, Jul 08, 2024 at 08:36:30 AM

Greetings everyone, we've finished the first 20 pages of the 72-page book and mailed it to you. The message will come through Kickstarter's message inbox with a code to download the Rise of the Mushroom King and two maps. 

The full manuscript should be finished in about two weeks. Since so many backers enjoyed Travis' black-and-white art, we've blended color and black-and-white illustrations and maps. 

Next, we will prepare the Backerkit survey and should get that to you in the next 7-10 days. 

World of Myrr update: If you backed our World of Myrr campaign setting, the 232-page PDF version will be sent out today!

Success! Thank you backers!

Thanks for helping to create a great book! 313 generous people from around the world helped make this Kickstarter a success. The next step is to wait about 10-12 days for Kickstarter to finalize the pledges. After that, you'll receive the Backerkit online survey to gather your information for us. It also allows you to choose many add-ons for your pledge!

We have almost completed the first 20-25 pages and we'll send that PDF booklet out around the time the Backerkit phase begins. 

Stretch Goal #1 Unlocked

You also unlocked the first Stretch Goal to add two maps and more encounters for the book. As a bonus, every backer will receive this color version of the market map by the Voyager's Workshop (PDF form).

We often help other 3rd party creators highlight their projects. Here's a new project from Ava's Adventures. 

Title: Let the Games Begin!

Crafting unique encounters and out-of-combat gameplay can be an absolute struggle as a Game Master. Laboriously preparing for downtime sessions, or festival activities, as hours are spent brainstorming exactly how to run them.
 

Let the Games Begin is a compendium of 50 fun and engaging mini-games & challenges for you to easily incorporate into your campaigns.
 

Whether they be quirky fun in a tavern, or epic tournament challenges, integrating mini-games into your adventures will provide both characters and players much needed respite and an ease of transition from one daring adventure to the next. 
 

The book is divided into 5 categories:
● 10 Goblin Games
● 10 Tavern Games
● 10 Dice Games
● 10 Street Games
● & 10 Tournament Games

We often help other 3rd party creators highlight their projects. Here are several current projects: 

Title: LeCod’s Revenge: A 1€ Undead Swashbuckler Adventure for 5E

Choose your mask, wear your dashing suit and dress, and dive into a colourful, roguish, and whimsically irresistible 5E adventure designed for three to six 5th-level characters. Your mission? Infiltrate LeCod’s masked gala, navigate the perilous maze of his enchanted manor, and unveil the path to his secret lich lair. Dancing with Death has never looked fancier.

LeCod’s Revenge includes:

A swashbuckler-esque adventure mixing classic DnD vibes with the worlds of One Piece, Monkey Island, and Our Flag Means Death;

High-quality original art;

Irresistible, in-depth NPCs to guide you throughout the adventure;

New companions and foes, like the ever-useful (and only mildly annoying) Adoring Fin and the Astute Necrofancier;

Original magic items, like the Necrofancier Staff, the Vaudeville Veil, and the Mysterious Panache!

Battlemaps for all the adventure’s major encounters;

20+ pages of original content.

ALL FOR 1 €

Check out the Kickstarter page and grab a FREE 5E subclass!

Title: The Ruins of Ordane

The Ruins of Ordane is a one-shot (or sandbox) adventure for D&D 5E and OSR adventurers of levels 6-10. PCs will explore the ruins of an advanced civilization that mysteriously disappeared. Rumors of goblins and bugbears in the area as well as a palpable miasma - an apathetic pall within the grounds of Ordane itself - are nothing compared to the whispers that...something...lurks deep within the bowels of the undercity...

Title: Gracewindale: Dungeon Master's Inventory

Greetings, adventurer! Welcome to Gracewindale!

Every DM needs a place where their imagination lives. And we created such space: keep your cheat sheets handy, hide miniatures for your sneaky ambushes and have all your accessories easily available in one place.

  • Easy to print STL files
  • Sturdy design
  • Detachable ornaments
  • Fits an 18x18 cm build platform (Prusa Mini and bigger FDM printers)
  • Customizable: you have a choice to use the screens as your cheat sheet holders, or make them into a mini display unit that can take anything: dice, miniatures, markers, trackers, and even a phone or a tablet!
  • Instead of paper cheat sheets, you can attach cork or magnetic sheets
  • The two-way dice tower lets you show your throws to the players or torture them with suspense 😏
  • Mini drawers are big enough to keep anything in order: decks of cards, markers, miniatures — you name it!
