Dream Plot

08/31/2023

Hello community! 📚✨

We've always believed in the power of stories, not just in our books but in real life too. Today, we'd like to share a story that touched our hearts.

Many of you might know Landon from his enthusiastic updates on various Kickstarter projects. His passion and commitment to the tabletop roleplaying community have been nothing short of inspiring. We were deeply moved by the recent post from Jonathan at AAW Games about Landon's current situation.

Life has thrown a challenging curveball at Landon and his family, with overwhelming medical bills and financial hardships. As fellow publishers and members of this vibrant community, we feel it's our duty to stand by one of our own in times of need.
We urge our fellow publishers and the broader community to come together and help in any way they can.

Let's show Landon that the magic of our community isn't just in the stories we tell, but in the actions we take. 💖

Breaking news! The Kickstarter campaign has just reached its stretch goal of $50,000!

As a reward for reaching this milestone, a vast dungeon map and its accompanying scenario will be added to the game for a total of 10 extra pages of new content. This new adventure will capture the charm of old school dungeon exploration, complete with puzzles to solve and challenges to overcome.

Great Wizard is very satisfied with our recruitment campaign. A big thank you to all for your support of our project as we make a beautiful book for you.

With more than $30,000 achieved we are integrating a list of backgrounds for character creation. Did they join a cult because they were persecuted? Were they rejected by their community? Perhaps they started their career as an executioner? Use these as is or let them be the spark that fuels your own background ideas.

Let's make a pact… (not a demonic one 😉)

Heading into our second week we’d like to spread the word and we need your help! We’ve designed some social media stretch goals to add even more to our booka and with each social stretch goal we reach, it means more content for everyone!

So let’s get the ball rolling with our Social Media goals. For each of the four goals achieved, we’ll add in companions for the Great Cult Leader including illustrations, their history and mechanics!

What are companions?
Companions are small creature NPCs to help enrich your game and depending on the companion may even provide some choice minor bonuses. Let's be honest: a villain with a cute and scary little creature in their arms is iconic!

Speaking of cute and scary…Today we'd like to introduce you to Romeo, the particularly pernicious cat, who likes to nibble at the calves of adventurers who turn their backs on him.

Thanks to Geeknative for sharing the first elements of the kickstarter campaign that we will soon launch.

Geek Native has secured permission to show you the pitch video for Villainous Champions of the Shadow Keep before the Kickstarter launch on the 22nd.

Henchmen and monsters: we have created NPCs and monsters to recruit. We have set up a system of monster types, each with its own specialties and weaknesses. Players must make choices because it is impossible to mix the types of monsters during the turns of guard. After all, the goblins get along rather badly with the undead. We aim to offer a wide range of strategies from which players can choose.
