Project Update: We did it, mateys! $187k FUNDED!
What a mighty victory, me hearties!
With great appreciation to you fine pirates, our crew, we have raised over $187,000 to bring Rapscallion to life! Great treasure has been plundered and wondrous adventures have been had. We can’t thank ya enough for bein’ on this voyage!
But first, our recently unlocked stretch goals...
At $180,000, we unlocked a new faction: The Vastlings
High in the north Sea, where ice chokes the currents and aurora lights dance in the night sky, a different breed of pirate holds sway. The Vastlings wander the cold ocean on enormous longships carved into the shape of seals and sea serpents. They hunt leviathans with enormous ebony spear-cannons, and pillage any ship that dares stray above the Meolsmund. Old sailors claim that Vastlings are cursed to wander the seas forever, even after death, until their service to the old sea is fulfilled and they can be laid to rest on solid ground.

Late Pledges
We know the pain of missing out on a devilishly compellin’ campaign, such as this one, by just a few hours, so we’ve set up a late pledge preorder store through Backerkit that will stay open through til Summer (in the USA) of 2024.
To join the campaign as a late pledge, follow the link here and fill out your order:
If you backed during this campaign, you don’t need to do anything here—we’ll let you know when it’s time to fill out your surveys in Backerkit! The late pledge option is only for people who want to make a late pledge because they missed the end of the campaign.
Those tricksy final goals…
We heard ya loud and clear, me hearties. Yer cravin’ the Alchemy VTT and Isobella’s Atlas more than you’ve ever craved anything. Tis a tough blow to come so close and be found wantin’.
So we have good news. We’ll be extending the final two stretch goals into our late pledges. That means should we hit $190,000 and $200,000 for the campaign in late pledges, we’ll release both Alchemy and the expansion booklet.
So grab yer fellow pirates and bring them aboard!
Next Adventures
Our crew will be takin’ a quick breather to find the rum and regroup after running such a thrillin’ campaign!
Then we’ll dive into the work of wrappin’ up the editing and layout over the next several months. As we make progress, we’ll share with you here all we’re working on so you can see the game as it develops. We’re especially keen to get your feedback, so we’ll be getting stuff out to you as soon as it’s ready!
Don’t forget you can start playing the new edition right now by downloading the Quickstart. You can grab it here:

To ensure we keep you up to date without overwhelming you with updates, we’ll be posting one update a month. These updates will fill you in on our progress, show you what we’re currently working on, and give you new play materials as we go.
Thank ya!!
There’s no way to say how incredible a crew you’ve been except for sayin’ thank ye. We’re excited to head to a port for rest and will return to share news of what comes next in the followin’ month.
At $180,000, we'll unlock a new faction—The Vastlings!
