5/21/2025 - Onto the Primevals
923% Funded!
Our total funding at time of writing is $4,615! That means we’re even closer to our next stretch goal: developing web tools to speed up character creation, region generation, and more!
Let’s hit that next stretch goal! Follow the link below to pledge if you haven’t already!
The Outsiders are Complete
All 12 Outsider monsters are complete with their stat-blocks in the game. On a per-monster basis, these guys take up more room than any other monster type and I think that’s because they are so alien! And because I had make up a bunch of new monster names and have enough text to explain them in ways that let the reader know what were they were “inspired” by.
Check them out:
This guy is cool! I had so much fun writing up all it’s fun psionic abilities!
The classic floating eyeball monster, once again, a ton of fun to write up!
More so than any of the others so far, these guys feel like adventures all to themselves. I’d say every one, but the mimics and oozes are really more like side-monsters, just fun ones!
The Primevals are Next
The next batch of monsters I’m working on are the Primevals. These guys are like the Fae, and they operate more like a single faction or spreading corruption than as individuals in a group of monsters (like Outsiders).
They serve the Antediluvians, dark gods that predate the Biblical Flood, that are all based on nature and fey stuff. Of course, feel free to throw out this lore for your own.
I’ve written the first four so far, check them out:
The red boxes are for my planning, they help me plan out my pages and what monsters are going on which page.
After these guys the only monsters left are the Fiends (demons and devils) which are set to take up around four pages. And those would actually be the LAST blank pages in the book. After the Fiends, it’s just line-by-line editing for a while and putting in the art!
Changes to Keeps and Warfare
After writing up the Section Highlight on Keeps and Warfare for the Backerkit, I realized there were a few balancing issues, so I went in and fixed them. Mostly in the Regency actions being either way to easy and literally impossible.
Here’s a look at those changes:
I’ll be posting another update on Friday, hopefully with all the Primevals done and MAYBE with some Fiends as well. We’ll see…
Let's hit those stretch goals!
until next time…
Good Luck on your Adventures!
