Hey everybody! We continue to climb and break down the walls of stretch goal after stretch goal. I'm amazed at your support and love of this project. Let me assure you we are working diligently to come up with some more amazing stretch goals to take us to $75k and beyond!
In the meantime, I want to know what you are playing. What game system? What adventure? What character race and class? Let's just chat about gaming. Comment below and let's celebrate our shared love of the game!

Gargoyles!

THE GARGOYLE PLAYER CHARACTER!
Have a look at the work in progress of the gargoyle player race (artwork in progress by the talented Dio Mahesa)! I think gargoyles have always been one of those fantasy monsters that we've all wished we could play at one point or another. Total Party Kill Games even wrote a Pathfinder 1E sourcebook called Scions of Stone devoted entirely to them. We give the 5E D&D version a similar treatment, with a few subraces as well.
Each subrace will fulfill a different role, so not all gargoyles need be smashing brutes... That's enough of a tease for now. I'll have more to share soon!
Again, my deepest thanks for being part of this project. We are very likely going to blow the roof off our existing stretch goals... so very soon it will be time for me to unveil some very cool new ones that are worthy of this Kickstarter!
Dio Mahesa is a freelance illustrator from Jakarta, Indonesia, who’s been working in the gaming industry since 2014 for various publishers (Legendary Games, Storm Bunny Studios, TPK Games, Kobold Press), and mainly works on character/creature illustrations.
500+ Backers!

Holy Shnikeys!
I am absolutely knocked prone and granting advantage on all attacks from the showing of support for this project. One of my major milestones was to see this hit 500 backers, a campaign milestone and level-up for myself. Not only are we there, but we are very likely going to double that number - all thanks to you guys!
So while I'm at it, let me introduce you guys to a couple more of the great writers and good people on the campaign.
Jaye Sonia has been creating content for roleplaying games for over a decade. Jaye began his quest while serving in the US Navy, although he didn't earn his first publication credit until 2008, after moving to Kuwait. Jaye went on to write for Bazaar Magazine (the column he created, "Geeks & Gamers" is still published today) before eventually establishing Storm Bunny Studios in 2012. Jaye published his first campaign setting, Rhune: Dawn of Twilight for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game in 2016 and has gone on to work on countless projects since. His next two major books, The World of Alessia Campaign Primer (July 2020) and The Bloodlines & Black Magic Roleplaying Game (October 2020 ) are both out later this year.
Mike Welham has played roleplaying games for a number of decades, and while he has wandered to various systems, he always finds his way back to the most popular fantasy roleplaying game rules set. He has been a freelancer since 2010, working for TPK Games, Kobold Press, Raging Swan Press, Paizo, among others.
Thank you all again for the pledge of support. We still have 25 days to go and are going to do some amazing things. I'm eager for more final art to be turned over to show off soon!
