Path of Penitence – QuickStart Guides & Tactician Tier Changes
🕑 Added 2023-06-16 17:23:27 +0000 UTCFellow Cultists,
The time has come! The QuickStart 5E guides for the Path of Penitence campaign are here! Don your ritual robes, make the dark pacts, and grab those PDFs; we’ve got a hell of a road ahead!
QuickStart Guides
The QuickStart Guides (QSG) include both a Player and GM version; containing all the core information your gaming table needs to get started on the Path and begin an immersive and persistent campaign. We’ve designed these documents for easy reading, so you can run them at your table with speed and simplicity.
The Player QSG walks you through character creation, covering the narrative story of Penitent heroes on their quest for redemption. You will also find core lore and history about the Empire of Azerai and the world of Doaden!
The GM QSG covers the basics for structuring scenarios in the world of Doaden. This flexible system tells episodic adventures in a persistent world, allowing you to plug-and-play Bestiarum’s monthly modules, or adapt dark fantasy adventures from other creators in your homebrew library.
Future of the Path
And this is just the start! Check back each month as the Path of Penitence system will receive regular updates including, player options like new class paths and backgrounds, and campaign features like campfire companions, Crusade advancement, traveling systems, and more. Soon, we hope to allow community members like yourselves to influence the growth of this continually evolving system. More on this later!
New RPG Format
Along with the new campaign system, you’ll see a change in the 5e adventure design. Our dark offerings will be exploding from 1 to 3+ adventures each month! The modules will be designed to be easily adaptable as one-shot scenarios, plugged into your homebrew campaigns, or run in a Path of Penitence campaign. They will feature print-friendly formatting, easy-to-run encounters, and broad level scaling, while retaining all the dark fantasy design and descriptions you’ve come to love!
You can check out the new format in a newly redesigned Burial Isle adventure that has been added to the Welcome Pack!
A New World
As a sneak peak of these exciting new developments, here’s a glimpse at the new world map! You’ll notice a few of your favorite places, from Sturmenburg to New Heldon and the Ashen Wastes. While some key locations remain marked, other details have been removed to allow a more flexible approach to tracking your own campaign locations. Make sure to read the GM QSG for more information about using this map, which creates a simple yet adaptable way for you to build an immersive experience or use it as a sandbox for your own adventures!
Changes to RPG Adventures-Only Tier
To support this new chapter of our 5E offering, we’ll be making a change to our RPG-Only Tier. The Subscription cost will be increasing from $5, to $10.
All-In Tier – The price of your subscription stays at $14! No changes here.
This change will take effect this July – We will be deleting the RPG Adventures Tier at the end of June and creating a new one in its place. This will mean our existing Tacticians will need to resubscribe for July manually, should you wish!
Where to find the Quickstart Guide & Burial Isle 2.0
The Quickstart Guides and updated Burial Isle have already been added to the Welcome Pack via MyMiniFactory. In addition, the QSGs are attached to this Post, so that you can access them from just about anywhere with ease!
We hope you all enjoy these new Supplements. Alex and the crew have been working really hard on the launch. We can’t wait to share more with you in the coming weeks!
Cheers,
Bestiarum Team
