Closing in on 70% funded with 9 days to go!
4 months ago – Tue, Jun 11, 2024 at 06:13:33 PM

Thanks for backing the adventure book! We've had two solid days and the campaign is in good shape. This is an important week for the Kickstarter, we ask everyone to share the project far and wide! 

Dungeon Section - The Catacombs of the Endless Night

After the marketplace, the story moves underground into the second of three adventure sections. We've made a terrain build of the map that the Voyager's Workshop made for the book. The terrain build is the very beginning of the dungeon area.

We often help other 3rd party creators highlight their projects. Here's a new project from Hounds and Jackals. 

MYSTMOOR

A TTRPG Fantasy Horror Campaign & Setting - System Agnostic e.g. DND 5e etc. with support for EZD6 and Shadowdark

MYSTMOOR is a system-agnostic fantasy-horror setting and campaign you can easily use with your favorite TTRPG game. Its design gives experienced Game Masters (GMs) the flexibility to run the materials in most low-magic, medieval-fantasy settings.

It’s packed full of plot hooks, mysteries, threats, and everything you need for a campaign.

This content is 100% human-created with absolutely NO A.I. involvement.

Blending heroic action with horrifying mysteries, take your players on a journey that allows them to feel like heroes, but always on edge at the horrors that lurk just outside their view, lying in wait in MYSTMOOR.

A special purpose of this project is to allow interested Backers to help shape certain elements of MYSTMOOR, (e.g. creating a shop, a noble family of the land, or even an NPC based on the Backer to roam about). It is an experiment to add some community-based extra-texture world-building!

4 months ago – Sun, Jun 09, 2024 at 04:16:57 PM

Greetings everyone, thanks for supporting the project. We are excited about making a great book for you. The adventure is about 53% funded with just less than two weeks to go. This is an important week for the Kickstarter, we ask everyone to share the project far and wide!  

Podcast Promotion - JNJ Tabletop

Great to chat with Jake and Josh from JNJ Tabletop about the Kickstarter. We talk in depth about the adventure and how to make it open to many fantasy TTRPGs.

We often help other 3rd party creators highlight their projects. Here's a new project from Silver Compass Maps. 

The diverse landscape of Devabhumi contains many environments, including towering icy mountains, scorching deserts, and dense jungles. The various tribes, principalities, and kingdoms of this land are roughly divided into three geographical locations: Uttara (north), Purva (east), and Daksina (south). The majority of inhabitants live in one of these locations. Different locations have their own subculture, language, and even different styles of weapons and armor. Devabhumi is a diverse, multicultural place where civilizations are often a blend of the myriad of people and beliefs that occupy it.

The Devabhumi Setting Guide includes a deep dive into the different nations, villages, and towns of this land. Every single place, even the smallest village, has a unique story and quest hooks for your players to explore.

The wilderness is a harsh, dangerous frontier with wandering Asuras, Bhootas, and other creatures of the night that prey on travelers. The wilderness also features benevolent spirits, intelligent Vaanar colonies, and meditating sages. The players may even encounter a wandering god, if they're lucky...

Over 45% funded after 60 hours!
4 months ago – Thu, Jun 06, 2024 at 06:40:46 PM

Hey there, thanks for backing the project. We are excited about the progress so far. The halfway point for funding the book isn't far away! After 60 hours, we're 46% funded! Over the next few days, we'll share the four podcasts we've been on promoting the book. 

City Section - the Marketplace

We are partnering with Monster Fight Club* to showcase the adventure. Today we're showing another view of the marketplace where the story begins. In the center of the photo, two heroes are confronting a monster. In the book, we have a map of this area and give descriptions of the nearby establishments and marketplace. *Those amazing trees are from Monster Fight Club

We often help other 3rd party creators highlight their projects. Here is a new 5E supplement! 

Have you had any of these issues as a GM?
 

Did your party dive into a dungeon and easily blast through your cleverly devised traps and baddies? -- No worries, drop one of the villains in as a mini boss!

Despite your best efforts to lay down the law in a city, have your players gone murder-hobo and are getting away with it? -- Send a few of the legendary heroes after them as bounty hunters.

Do you have a derelict cottage, cave, tower, or other location and no one interesting to put inside it because your party skipped ahead or went to the area quicker than you expected? -- Randomly select one of the NPCs in this manual and you'll have not only an NPC that can keep them busy, but enough lore and backstory to understand the NPC's motivations.

Or maybe you just need to beef up the end of a game night session with something more challenging. -- Any of the provided maps and NPCs will make for an interesting mini boss encounter!

Need an interesting and unique NPC you haven't seen before? -- The back of the manual has a random NPC roll-up section to literally create thousands of unique and fun NPCs on the fly!

Then you won’t want to miss Legendary Heroes, Villains, & Lairs!
