February, March, and April Announcement - Asterlan Odyssey!
🕑 Added 2023-02-17 05:09:23 +0000 UTCAsterlan Odyssey is a new, system-neutral tabletop adventure inspired by classic NES rpg's. The evil warlock Drakon has stolen the Golden Orb and released an army of monsters upon Asterlan. The players will have to battle their way across Asterlan and stop Drakon before his insidious plans come to pass.
The entire adventure will be spread across three zines filled with full-color pixel art:
February's zine, Drakon's Curse, includes the history of Asterlan, a vocation system for building character and party backstories, a way to track travel time, lots of magic items, an introductory encounter, the adventure outline, and a list of random encounters.
To receive Drakon's Curse you'll need to be signed up for the Patreon at the Hero or Legend tier and be charged in February. The PDF will be available at the end of February and the physical zines will ship in March to Legend tier patrons.
March's zine, The Ruinous Voyage, includes the map of Asterlan with descriptions for each town dungeon the players can explore. 12 locations (probably more) in total!
To receive The Ruinous Voyage you'll need to be signed up for the Patreon at the Hero or Legend tier and be charged in March. The PDF will be available at the end of March and the physical zines will ship in April to Legend tier patrons.
April's zine, A Monster Draws Near, is a collection of every monster the players will face on their adventure. Each monster will have unique abilities and simple stats for adapting to your game of preference.
To receive A Monster Draws Near you'll need to be signed up for the Patreon at the Hero or Legend tier and be charged in April. The PDF will be available at the end of April and the physical zines will ship in May to Legend tier patrons.
Of course, some of the details might change, but these three books will be filled with lots of fun ideas, creepy pixel art monsters, and a whimsical world-saving adventure!

This is so exciting. I recently returned to RPGs after a too long hiatus. Partially thanks to your videos and energy. I am getting ready to be back in the GM chair with my daughter and her friends. I already started something similar, but with Final Fantasy I as the inspiration. When this is out we will have our second campaign. (BTW my new system of choice is Index Card RPG) You and Hank should team up for a project. I am not sure who's energy and positivity is bigger.
