Following up on our Update from earlier in the week, Pledge Manager Surveys have gone out (fill yours in if you haven't yet!), and I've now set up our first batch of rewards to be distributed. We'll use the Pledge Manager to fulfill these digital rewards, so please do fill out your survey and set up your BackerKit Pledge Manager page if you haven't already done so (instructions can be found in our previous update).
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://scion-god.backerkit.com
Many of the rewards for our kickstarter projects take a lot of time and effort to complete. Usually, the kickstarter is a means of moving the project from an idea (even when it's a mostly-fully-written idea) into the actual channel that turns it into a project/product. It'll be a while before we're ready to talk about delivery on Scion: God, and even longer for our projects generated via Stretch Goals (the The Scion: God Jumpstart, The Companion PDF, Divine Inspiration,and the rest).
That said, there are a few rewards that are available now, as they were mostly add-on PDFs of existing products. And now we can work on getting those out to you over the week.
The following Add On Rewards WillBe Distributed This Week:
[Add On] Scion Second Edition Book One: Origin PDF + Discounted PoD Link
[Add On] Scion Second Edition Book Two: Hero PDF + Discounted PoD Link
[Add On] Scion Second Edition Book Three: Demigod PDF + Discounted PoD Link
[Add On] Scion: Dragon PDF + Discounted PoD Link
[Add On] Scion: Masks of the Mythos PDF + Discounted PoD Link
[Add On] Scion Second Edition Supplements Bundle [12 title bundle]
[Add On] Trinity Continuum Beginner Bundle [6 title bundle]
[Add On] They Came From Beginner Bundle [4 title bundle]
It's basically this section of the Add On menu from our campaign page:
It took me a bit to put together because, thanks to those bundles, there are a lot of codes to go out! Your Pledge Manager will also have a link to the Scion: God draft manuscript, in case you're looking to download the complete draft text. It can be found in your Digital Rewards listing on your Pledge Manager page.
If you want any of these and didn't add them on during the campaign, you can still update your BackerKit Pledge Manager page and add them to your rewards list. See the BackerKit How-To instructions above.
REWARD DISTRIBUTION
Your link to claim these digital rewards will be sent out by our BackerKit pledge manager over the nextfew days. Since we are using our partners at DriveThruRPG as the hosts for these, you will need to set up a DriveThru account if you don't have one already. If you encounter any problems with downloading your rewards, please contact DTRPG's customer service to resolve the matter, they've always been top-rated for customer service. http://www.drivethrurpg.com/contact_us.ph
Thebest way to ensure these redemption codes work smoothly is to log in to your DTRPG account first, and then click (or copy) the link shown in your BackerKit.
Again, you will receive an e-mail from BackerKit with links for these rewards over the next 2 days if any of them are on your expected list of rewards. I'll be releasing them in waves, so don't panic if you only see a couple links at first... the rest are coming. (We're in a digital world, but there are still a lot of manual processes. And there are manylinks to go out!!)
The easiest way to see if you've got digital downloads available is to login to your Backerkit Pledge Manager account: https://scion-god.backerkit.com/digital_rewards and it'll show anything available. Your Pledge Manager account should also confirm all rewards that you should expect from your reward tier selected.
MONTHLY UPDATES
As mentioned earlier in the week, we'll start our regular monthly check in updates in the new year. We're still in the earliest stages of this post-campaign, where projects make incremental movements along the progress path. A lot of months will be pretty similar, just a quick note to let you know that the Onyx Path team is still working on it. Any time we have a new reward or something of interest to share, I'll include that as well.
At the end of each month, I'll include a summary of our rewards and their current status (they'll either be delivered or marked as still pending, possibly with additional details if I know more). I'll also list any relevant Update posts, in case you want to go back and check into something.
In addition to notes on our reward status, each month I'll also include the BackerKit links and my How To PDF notes, as well as contact information in case you need to get in touch, and a link back to our compiled draft manuscript.
So, look for the first of our regular month end updates in about 5-6 weeks. Which means I'll be quiet for a bit, so happy holidays to everyone, and all the best in the New Year!
ONYX PATH PROJECT TRACKING
You can read Onyx Path's most recent monthly summary, covering all projects and their status up to that point here: <November Project Status Summary>
You can find the weekly Monday Meeting blog updates <here>, which note any projects with status changes since the previous Month End summary. The project statuses listed are current as of last Monday, so do check it out each Monday night to see if anything may have progressed!
I will continue to post regular updates every month until the final Stretch Goal reward has gone out.
