Never give in to the consuming Abyss, friend explorers. Just five drops from here you will find an oasis of clean water and rich minerals. Close your eyes and listen. The World Below will guide you.
Hello Diggers!
I've got two fun things to share with you today! The first is one concerns our latest discoveries as we delve further into The World Below - our latest Stretch Goal reward!
ACHIEVED! -At $43,000 in Funding – WORLD BELOW MONSTER CARDS – A set of Monster Cards with illustrations on one side and information on the back will be released as a “Print-and-Play” PDF and added to the rewards list of all backers receiving The World Below PDF as one of their rewards. Backers will receive an option to order a physical version from DriveThruCards at a discounted rate.
A great tool and resource for Storyguides! And another bonus reward which will automatically be added to all appropriate backer pledges!
Shall we continue on our journey? Shall we dig deeper to discover more treasures below?
We'll continue our strategy of having a celebratory goal to mark our progress and help us marshal our resources - our Kalm season, if you will - followed by some new content for the game.
At $46,000 in Funding – WORLD BELOW MOBILE WALLPAPER – Weird and wonderful World Below artwork will be used to create a wallpaper for your mobile device lockscreen. This lockscreen wallpaper will be added to the rewards list of all backers supporting this project.
At $49,000 in Funding – DIGGING DEEPER INTO THE WORLD BELOW – The World Below Adventure Supplement PDF will be expanded to include a follow-up adventure. Our second adventure concerns the building and protection of our settlement, the political maneuvering of the guilds, and the clashes of dogmas that go on behind the so-called "safety" of the settlement walls.
That's right, if we hit this goal the Onyx Path team will be able to expand the supplement we unlocked earlier with some adventure and intrigue back at home. I like the exploration and adventure aspects of The World Below but I'm equally intrigued by the community bits and social interactions, so it'll be great to have this side of the game covered in this supplement as well!
AND if you want to see and hear the game in action, I've got some more Actual Play sessions for you. We looked at some of these last week, and now we've got some new entries and some new chapters of existing stories...
ACTUAL PLAY EPISODES
The Old Ways Podcast explores NEW DEPTHS in The World Below with their adventure into the darkness. Listen in as three characters come together to locate new food resources for their community before it's too late!
When a plague of rats descends upon the underground settlement of Mud Town, four adventurers are tasked with investigating a long-abandoned citadel and securing much-needed supplies. The route is perilous, flush with dangerous monsters and unpredictable Kaos magic, but Mud Town will only survive if our heroes can survive the tunnels, and open The Farthest Gate.
The Dork Tales team prepares for their delve into The World Below with a Session 0 covering Character Creation before their adventure kicks off in upcoming Episode 1.
So, great job everyone! Let's continue to explore and move deeper into The World Below and see if we can't get that second adventure in our story path unlocked as a reward to all current backers and an incentive for new backers to join in!
Please continue to share this campaign in your social circles and on your social media! Everyone's doing a great job thus far, so let's keep it up! We're just about halfway through our time in this campaign, so let's see if we can make the second half just as amazing!
I'll be back Tuesday morning with our next Manuscript section. All backers of this project will be able to read the entire draft version of the manuscript during the campaign before any pledges are processed or payments collected! Unlike exploring in The World Below, we're trying to make it as risk-free as possible! So check in Tuesday as we learn about Thesis and Synthesis and get the full Kaotic Sorcery rules.
