over 3 years ago – Mon, Mar 29, 2021 at 12:13:04 AM

Ahoy Backers!

Here are some quick updates on this Kickstarter:

  • I received word from Kickstarter that payment processing is complete and we're just waiting for things to transfer to our bank and Backerkit.
  • Once the funds are in the bank and we have our final numbers in Backerkit, we'll be sending out backer surveys. We expect to send out backer surveys on Wednesday, March 24, 2021 (or earlier)
  • Everyone who is a backer will have a chance to pick-up digital and physical add-ons when they complete their backer survey, including a limited number of The Seas of Vodari hardcovers.
  • Once you receive your backer survey from Backerkit, please make sure to complete your backer survey as soon. That way, you'll receive your Under the Seas of Vodari Quickstart Guide right when we send it out at the end of March. 
  • As we move into April and beyond, our team will be heads-down writing the remaining content and sharing content that is ready with our Early Access level backers.

Upcoming Rewards

By the end of March 2021, we expect to send out the following digital rewards to backers who have completed their backer survey.

Campaign Complete, 85k Stretch Goal Unlocked, and Next Steps
over 3 years ago – Fri, Mar 05, 2021 at 08:54:27 PM

Thank you to all 1,379 of our backers. This Kickstarter finished even bigger than our original Seas of Vodari campaign in 2019! We're ready to dive in and get to work on delivering an amazing book.

Coral Dragon Wyrmling

$85k Stretch Goal Unlocked

What an incredible finish that went down to the wire. We were able to just reach CA$85k in funding (with a little wiggle room) and unlocked our final stretch goal. I had a feeling it would be close, but I had no idea it would be this close and exciting.

  • $85k New Adventure. We'll release a brand new adventure written by Brandes Stoddard. The adventure will take place in Vodari and will be released in PDF format in 2022. All backers will receive a copy of this PDF at no cost and before it's available to non-backers.

What's Next?

Here's a general summary of the next steps for this Kickstarter...

  • Kickstarter will verify all of your pledges and collect payment. This whole process can take up to two weeks.
  • While we are waiting for Kickstarter, we'll finish setting up Backerkit. Then you'll receive a survey from Backerkit to confirm your details and give you access to a selection of add-ons including hardcovers, PDFs, maps, and tokens for both books. Note: We only have a limited number of The Seas of Vodari hardcovers left and will provide them as an add-on in Backerkitwhile supplies last.
  • Once we have received all of the Backerkit surveys, we'll email out the Under the Seas of Vodari Quickstart Guide PDF. We'll also email copies of The Seas of Vodari PDF (and other SoV digital rewards) to Heroes of the Wind & Waves backers and anyone who picks it up as an add-on in Backerkit.
  • Finally, we're going to get moving at full speed on finishing up this 200+ book (beyond what is already in the Quickstart Guide). The final book will include The Sunken City of Zuroth adventure, all of the "Added to Book" stretch goals, and more. Backers who are receiving the "Early Access to the Material" reward will see much of this content ahead of the book release.

Thank you for your support!

- Shawn and the entire team

$85k New Adventure Stretch Goal Added
over 3 years ago – Fri, Mar 05, 2021 at 12:10:50 AM

One Final Stretch Goal

You twisted our rubber tendrils, claws, fin, or whatever. We're going to dive just a little deeper and add one final stretch goal to this campaign.   

  • $85k New Adventure. If this Kickstarter can reach $85k in funding, we'll release a brand new adventure written by Brandes Stoddard. The adventure will take place in Vodari and will be released in PDF format in 2022. All backers will receive a copy of this PDF at no cost and before it's available to non-backers.

When we were looking at options for one more stretch goal, we wanted to come up with something that would not impact our release date for delivering Under the Seas of Vodari. I hope you're as excited as we are to reach this goal and help us create even more Vodari content. 

This last stretch goal is going to take some work to reach, but I think it's possible. Please help us get the word out about Under the Seas and Vodari and make one final push to reach this goal. 

1000 Backers Stretch Goal Unlocked!
over 3 years ago – Thu, Mar 04, 2021 at 12:42:57 AM

Vodari Player's Companion Unlocked

Thank you to everyone who has supported our Kickstarter! We've now reached 1000 backers. The following backer-exclusive stretch goal is now unlocked:

  • 1000 Backers - Vodari Player's Companion.  We'll create a PDF containing all of the player options (races,   subclasses, backgrounds, feats, and more) and equipment from both books for gamemasters to provide their players. This is a  backer-exclusive digital reward and will not be available to non-backers.

We'll complete this book after the player options from Under the Seas of Vodari are edited. We will provide updates on this PDF as progress is made. The first update will likely be a preview of the cover.

Final Push

This Kickstarter reached its funding goals in under 6 hours. Since then your support has allowed us to unlock 12 stretch goals. We have a few days left to reach the final stretch goal which is less than $4000 away.

  •  $70K - Four Additional Random Tables. We'll add four more random tables for exploring undersea settlements and the wild seas between.

$60K Stretch Goal Reached!

Thank you to everyone who has supported our Kickstarter. We've now reached CA$60k in funding! The following stretch goal is now unlocked:

  • $60K - Coral Dragon. These elusive dragons are fierce defenders of coral reefs and the creatures who call them home. We'll add stat blocks for ancient, adult, young, and wyrmling coral dragons, along with lair actions and regional effects. 

I've just put in an order for artwork and we're really excited to be doing a full dragon in the monster section of this book.

Ancients Preview

Our $45K stretch goal was to add lore and racial stats for a brand new undersea playable race, the mysterious Ancients. Here's an art preview of the Dakri and Varu.

Final Push

This Kickstarter reached its funding goals in under 6 hours. Since then your support has allowed us to unlock 12 stretch goals. We're getting to the end of this campaign, but we still have a few days left to reach these remaining stretch goals. Please tell everyone you can about this book and let's dive past both of these stretch goals.

  • $70K - Four Additional Random Tables. We'll add four more random tables for exploring undersea settlements and the wild seas between.
  • 1000 Backers - Vodari Player's Companion.  We'll create a PDF containing all of the player options (races,   subclasses, backgrounds, feats, and more) and equipment from both books for gamemasters to provide their players.
