Cairn 2e Kickstarter

First, the good news: Cairn 2e has a new publisher! Earlier this year, we were very sad to learn that LFOSR would no longer be able to publish the Cairn 2e box set! Well, we are very happy to officially announce that Space Penguin Ink will be our new publisher! We are so excited to be working with them, and frankly we can't imagine doing it any other way. They have the expertise and skills to make this thing really sing... and that's where the bad news comes in. We have decided delay the Kickstarter until March, 2024.

SHOCKING!

I know, I know. Honestly, pushing it forward (or is it back... I always forget?) will ensure that the box set is everything we want it to be — and more.

Basic Box Set

The contents of the box set have not changed, but I am happy to provide some more details at this time:

• Player's Guide (staple-bound if possible)
• Warden's Guide (hardcover chonky boy)
• Tear-off character sheets
• Starting adventure
• Optional extra copies of the Player's Guide, printed at cost

Stretch Goals We Might Cram In At No Extra Cost

• GM screen by Bruno Prosaiko
• Adventure anthology (Brad Kerr, Amanda P. Zedeck Siew... and more!)
• Online Setting generator (like that cool one for Mothership)
• Arts-n-craft tokens! Really! Maybe.
• Localization (as many languages as we can)

A few more updates:

• The October Playtest is live! We've got procedures! We removed spellbooks (kind of)!
• Amanda Lee Franck has been hired to do some interior art & a bestiary for the Warden's Guide
• The online character generator/Keeper is nearing beta
• Art for backgrounds is expected in early November
• Writing for the Warden's Guide is in full swing

Beyond The Pale

 

And finally: my Cairn adventure Beyond The Pale has a Kickstarter project page!

Published by Lost Pages, Beyond The Pale is an old school adventure inspired by Jewish folklore and mysticism. I first started writiing it two years ago, and I am so very excited to share it with the world. The writing, art, and layout are complete, we are just shuffling a few things around in prepartion for print. The PDF will be available as soon as the 15-day Kickstarter ends.

Please click that "notify on launch" button to if you want to get... notified on launch! 

That's all the news - thanks for reading. I'll leave you all for now, as I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep...
