Olan Taa Worldbook Live on Kickstarter

Update: Unfortunately it seems the creators have seen fit to cancel the Kickstarter. Hopefully it may still see the light of day in some form later on.

Another RPG project I contributed to has made it to crowdfunding. The Olan Taa worldbook is now live on Kickstarter and as of this writing is already within striking distance of its funding goal.

Olan Taa is the setting used by several previously crowdfunded tabletop games like Skytear, Skytear: Horde, and Onward. It is a shattered world full of surreal landscapes and magical technology, warred over by four ruthless human cultures. The Worldbook brings the setting to the realm of RPGs, with system agnostic lore and Fifth Edition compatible gameplay content.

My biggest contribution was creating several subclasses, including the Restless Phalanx fighter, of which I am particularly proud. While I didn’t play the previous games in the setting, I did try to do my research, and a lot of mechanics for my subclasses were inspired by cards from Skytear: Horde, which I hope will be a nice treat for long-time fans of the franchise.

New on DMs Guild: The Song of Lament

I’ve just released a new adventure on Dungeon Masters Guild, The Song of Lament. Set in the mythic world of Theros, The Song of Lament sees the party ally with the mysterious woman Acantha as she seeks a boon of the god Athreos. Thus begins a tale of tragedy, hope, and renewal, culminating in the chance to rewrite the past itself.

The Song of Lament is a short adventure for two to six fifth level characters. It should take two to three sessions to complete, and it features detailed mechanics to scale the difficulty of the adventure to the size of your party.

In other DMs Guild news, my Pact of the Coven option for warlocks has recently earned its copper best-seller badge, and most of the supplements I’ve worked on are currently discounted for the Christmas in July sale.
