The Kickstarter for the Bestiary goes live next Thursday, but here's the preview page in the interim! Please share widely.

While the Bestiary is naturally set in Nordlond...that really doesn't change much of the utility provided by a ready-to-use big book of monsters.

Minimum 128-page hardcover; and if we hit the 63,000 top stretch goal, it'll grow to 240 pages.

Melting into a pool of drool, melting adventurers into a pool of drool, or a pool of drool that melts adventurers?

All of the above would be a great monster.

It looks pretty good.
I am looking eager after this KS.

Hope we get the huge book!

The Nordlond Bestiary and Enemies book project is now Live!

Here we go! The biggest project I'm launching this year, and maybe my biggest project ever.

I'm a tetch nervous, but I think we've got this. We shall see.

I wanted to welcome those who joined from the "Follow the Campaign" pre-launch page! I was out of the gate early this time, and hopefully this will help us. If all followers jump in on Day 1 (and a reasonable fraction like the cards and VTT pack pledge), we've got a legit shot at funding.

In any case, two bits of media:

I was on Talking Crit last night with Erik Tenkar and Bad Mike.

Talking Crit with Gaming Ballistic

It was a pretty good discussion, though I didn't spend a lot of time actively promoting this Kickstarter.

On the other hand, I'll be on SJGames Live! at 2pm Central Time today, and that WILL be active promotion.

I intend to show card mockups, token mockups, and hopefully have a full dozen sample monsters and a few other laid-out pages ready to pop up on the screen.

If you have questions, that's a great time to ask them. I'll post a link when I have one.

In the meantime: Join Me on Discord to chat, ask questions, and get updates!

Update 2/3:

All-digital reward added!

It was pointed out to me that some of the settings on the VTT pack and QR PDF were a bit wonky. I added an all-digital pack with the book PDF, the Quick-Reference print-and-play PDF, and the tokenized VTT pack for $50 so you don't have to bother with add-ons and such.

One more new reward: Physical Book plus new PDFs (for international folks!)

The physical Bestiary is aimed at shipping worldwide, but the Quick-reference card decks would be prohibitively expensive at this juncture (not to mention a logistical nightmare).

But...one of my backers noted that Bestiary (Print/PDF) and PDFs of the Quick-Reference Print-and-Play and tokenized VTT pack makes the perfect combo. So I added that as a reward as well.
