the bard welcomes you
Want to get your copy of the Emporium but didn't make the Kickstarter campaign? Now you can preorder the book in pdf or hardcover. Just follow the link here or on my project homepage.
Hail Lords of Beasts and Keepers of Shops!
Everyone who pledged at the $100 level should have already received an email from me requesting concept details. The emails were sent to the email addresses you provided Kickstarter. If you did not receive your email, please send me a message here on KS and let me know a good email address for you. Again, this is only for the $100 pledge levels.
The general Backerkit survey will be coming later for everyone who backed the Emporium. Thank you all for your patience, as this is a long process of a thousand steps. But it's coming together a little more each day!
Esper
Esper the Bard is now officially a business! I'm setting up accounts to pay Backerkit, artists, Mixam, and others involved. It's a lot of work (and paperwork), but big things are underway.
The post-campaign pledge fulfillment will be handled through Backerkit, and I've been working with them and building everything involved to make sure you all receive your rewards.
I feel like I've stepped through a great door and entered some sort of giants' hall. It's huge, it's a bit overwhelming, and at the same time, the thrill of wondrous opportunities is in the air. Torch in hand and sword at the ready, I continue onward.
These past few days I have been communicating with a bunch of artists, a graphic designer, Backerkit (pledge fulfillment), and friends with lots of ttrpg experience who are helping with feedback and playtesting. There are a lot of things underway, much like a giant puzzle slowly getting pieced together.
Once again, you have my sincere gratitude for your support, and I will post updates here from time to time about how the Emporium is shaping up.
First and foremost, thank you all, from the bottom of my heart. It is incredible how much support I've had on this project. I am deep into working on the Emporium, as well as talking with artists, graphic designers, experienced friends, and others, and my aim is for this tome to be bursting full of unique, quality content that will enhance your own adventures.
Backerkit will be handling the pledge fulfillment, which should keep everything well organized. I will continue to post updates too.
May your adventures be many!
