REWARD DISTRIBUTION - Mummy: The Curse Backer PDF
about 3 years ago – Wed, Feb 17, 2021 at 05:21:22 PM

Hello Arisen!

The concept of time is already a bit topsy-turvy for the Arisen, but I'm going to make it even more complicated by sending out my regular month end update a week early!

That's right - this is the February 2021 Update, coming out to you early because I have exciting info to share!

Early Update James

Over the past year, dealing with the pandemic and the scheduling and logistical hurdles has proven to be an ongoing multi-part challenge, and getting books printed and shipped on time has been difficult. That's mostly to external factors in dealing with manufacturing and distribution changes.

However, in terms of the digital side, Onyx Path has done an amazing job getting PDFs out before the estimated delivery date listed on the kickstarter campaigns. And, I'm very happy to say, that streak has continued with this project!

The Mummy: The Curse 2nd Edition kickstarter campaign had set the projected PDF distribution date as April 2021. But time has no meaning for the Arisen, and I'm happy to announce that we've got your backer PDFs ready to go a couple months early!

MUMMY: THE CURSE BACKER PDF

MUMMY: THE CURSE includes

  • Everything you need to run or play Mummy: The Curse, a game of timeless horror and multiple ears of mystery
  • A deep setting of Iremite history and society, delving into the world of the Arisen and other immortals, sorcerers, and cultists
  • Powers ranging from the cosmic to the subtle, all at the beck and call of this game's protagonists
  • A plethora of horrifying foes, from Blood Bathers to Body Thieves, Lifeless Shuankhsen to chimerical Amkhata, and many more
  • Comprehensive storytelling advice to make Mummy accessible and enthralling to everyone from their first session

Of course, I'm listing all of that knowing that you're already familiar with book! It's never not fun to have a summary, though! And, it's a good moment to catch our breath as we head into reward distribution info!

REWARD DISTRIBUTION

Your link to claim your Mummy: The Curse Backer PDF will be sent out by our BackerKit pledge manager over the next day. Since we are using our partners at DriveThruRPG as the host for this, you will need to set up a DriveThru account if you don't have one already. If you encounter any problems with downloading your rewards, please contact DTRPG's customer service to resolve the matter, they've always been top-rated for customer service. http://www.drivethrurpg.com/contact_us.php

Again, you will receive an e-mail from BackerKit with a link for your Mummy: The Curse Backer PDF over the next 24 hours if it is on your expected list of rewards. The easiest way to see if you've got digital downloads available is to login to your backerkit account: https://mummy-the-curse.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards and it'll show anything available. Your backerkit account should also confirm all rewards that you should expect from your reward tier selected.

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://mummy-the-curse.backerkit.com/

If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey is sent to the email address you use for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you prefer to use, please contact support at  https://mummy-the-curse.backerkit.com/faq

BACKER PDF VERSION

This is the first version of Mummy: The Curse 2nd Editionto be released. We've sent you these initial Backer PDFs for three reasons:

1) Who wants to wait?! These projects can take a long time to turn into final releases - you know that - and the Onyx Path team wants to get them into your hands as quickly as possible!

2) To thank you for your support! This project, literally, is a direct result of your support during the Kickstarter campaign. You deserve to see it before anyone else!

3) To make the final version the best it can be! The design and development teams have done their best to proofread and correct any errors and typos - but some always sneak through. If you catch any typos, incorrect math, visual glitches, and the like, we want to hear about them and correct them before we send the book off to print.

With that in mind, I'd like to introduce the Mummy: The Curse Feedback Form!

Onyx Path has launched a special Mummy: The Curse Feedback Form, which you can access here: https://forms.gle/44TyPKud5Ao7R7vr7

Submit your feedback for Mummy: The Curse

Generally, they try to keep errata collection open for the next 2 weeks, although it may be accessible a little bit longer due to the chaotic nature of the world we're in now. Still, please report what you can as soon as possible to make sure we're getting everything covered.

They won't be collecting errata from other spots, just this specific form. 

After any needed corrections are made (based on your feedback!), we will prepare an updated final PDF version of the book and you will receive a notice from DrivethruRPG that you can re-download your file with the latest version.

You've already made the book a reality with your Kickstarter support. Now you can make it even better by helping us crowdsource any minor errors and corrections.

Wow. Things are already looking up in 2021! Let's jump into our regular Month End summary, now that we can move a big reward from Pending to Delivered...

January 2021 Update
about 3 years ago – Sun, Jan 31, 2021 at 01:46:12 AM

Hello Arisen,

The year is 2021, and this is the first month end update for this project so far this year.

Just in case you've awakened from a different time period. Or, like me, spent most of last year in a semi-daze.

I'm in the middle of a polar vortex, and actually look like a mummy when I go out to walk the dog! Dress in layers!

No big announcements for Mummy: The Curse quite yet. I know that this book is the focus of a lot of effort currently, and everything seems to be on track so far! Let's check in with our reward list to ensure we're all on the same page.

Now on Kickstarter - click to check it out!

The ancient powers never fully went away. They wander our roads and cities, mingling with the teeming masses of humanity. Characters in Scion Second Edition begin as humans touched by fate, heirs to great powers and incredible destinies. In the core setting for Scion, characters discover they are the children of Gods, inheriting mantles, accomplishing great deeds, and deciding their own destinies. It’s a game about divinity and humanity, and everything in between — and now, with these two expansions, everything beyond as well. Scion: Dragon and Scion: Masks of the Mythos open new pathways, new origins, and new secrets for Scion Second Edition.

Check it out on Kickstarter! We've already funded and unlocked 16 Stretch Goals! Come join in!

2020 Year End Update
over 3 years ago – Sun, Dec 20, 2020 at 07:34:04 PM

Hello Arisen,

It's not quite the end of the year (that can't come soon enough!), but I wanted to get this out early so we can maybe have a little bit of quiet time during these year end holidays. 

James in 2020

This year has obviously been full of unexpected challenges and difficult times. Our campaign funded a year ago, and this year would normally have been mostly about watching the gradual progress on the projects we helped fund, as they slowly work their way to us. This year wasn't normal at all, though, but things have still moved along. I'm hoping 2021 is a much more manageable year, and looking forward to the results of the hard work of the Onyx Path team. I know that if I could experience time in a non-linear fashion, I'd have jumped over 2020 right to 2021!

ONYX PATH ON KICKSTARTER IN 2020

To say this year was challenging would be an understatement. Despite difficult, uncertainty, and demanding situations, the Onyx Path team continued to work on the great projects that have made us fans. It wasn't easy - schedules shifted, delays managed, and difficulties dealt with - but here we are at the end of 2020 with some victories to show!

KICKSTARTED PROJECTS RELEASED IN 2020

 KICKSTARTER PROJECTS FUNDED IN 2020

Kickstarter continues to be an important part of the process for Onyx Path, and looking at the long list of projects in the works on the Monday Meeting Notes blog, it certainly looks like that’ll continue to be the case in 2021.

Rather than just take pre-order for an upcoming project, Kickstarter has allowed Onyx Path to gauge interest in game lines (to see if they should develop additional projects beyond those offered during the campaign), and sometimes even add additional projects to a game line immediately via Stretch Goal achievements. More importantly, it’s a chance to interact with the community and for everyone to get involved from the earliest stages.

Looking at 2020, Onyx Path had 7 Kickstarter campaigns funded, with one more currently on the go!

And, though the campaign still has a few days to go, the recent Dead Man's Rust mega-adventure and setting supplement for Scarred Lands 5th Edition has funded, which means it will get added to the list soon!

Thanks to your support during these campaigns, Onyx Path was able to introduce the following additional projects:

  •  Trails of Ash and Bone (V5)
  •  Forbidden Religions (V5)
  •  Children of Blood (V5)
  •  Hunter: The Vigil 2E Jumpstart
  •  Tending the Flame (HtV 2E)
  •  Operative's Dossier (M20)
  •  Technocracy Reloaded Novella Anthology
  •  Legacies of Earth (Legendlore 5E)
  •  Monsters from the Crypt! (TCfBtG!)
  •  Tales of Depravity! (TCfBtG!)
  •  Heroes in a World of Horror! (TCfBtG!)
  •  Scion: Demigod Companion (Scion Second Edition)
  •  Scion: Demigod Scenarios (Scion Second Edition)
  •  Paranormal Investigator's Toolkit (WoD 20A)
  •  Hunting Monsters (WoD 20A)
  •  Necromancers & Mediums (WoD 20A)
  •   Ghost Hunters Jumpstart (WoD 20A)
     

All of that is in addition to the usual backer rewards, like T-shirt designs and digital wallpapers.

So, thank you for your ongoing support! Even in the chaos, confusion, heartbreak, and challenges of 2020, this hobby has continued to bring people together and provide distraction and respite during these difficult times.

November 2020 Update
over 3 years ago – Sat, Nov 28, 2020 at 04:34:00 PM

Hello Arisen,

Another month (just about) completed in 2020! I feel like each month is an endurance test, but I'm also surprised by how quickly we seem to burn through the days. Slow days, quick months as they say.

Nothing shocking this month, just our ongoing status update.

Before I give our monthly round up (which isn't going to be too much different than last month), let's take a quick peek at Onyx Path's Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals currently offered at DriveThruRPG.com.

It’s time again for DriveThruRPG’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale!

Nearly every PDF in the Onyx Path catalogue is on sale, between 20% and 40% off! Products from across our community content programs — Storypath Nexus, Canis Minor, and Slarecian Vault — are also on sale, making a total of nearly 700 Onyx Path products in the sale!

If you've got any gaps in your Chronicles of Darkness digital library, now is the time to fill those in!

October 2020 Update
over 3 years ago – Thu, Oct 29, 2020 at 12:06:20 AM

Hello Arisen!

We're in the middle phase of project tracking, so a lot of these updates will be similar and, sorry to say, a little boring. As far as I know, everything's still on track and humming away. In 2020, the saying is absolutely true - no news is good news.

No News James

That said, I do want to continue to send monthly updates even though there's not much to update. It's important that you know nothing has been forgotten or left by the wayside, and that the Onyx Path team is still working on this awesome book. It means we'll have a quiet winter and an exciting spring!

FINAL WEEK ON KICKSTARTER

World of Darkness: Ghost Hunters for World of Darkness 20th Anniversary Edition - Final Days on Kickstarter!

The abandoned lover, waiting for her paramour to return, only to die, alone. Now she waits in her house forever.

The murdered family, killed in a spree so violent their spirits couldn’t pass on to the hereafter, now wreaking an untampered revenge on anyone they find.

The serial killer, who never made his tally complete in life, now determined to possess the bodies of the living to continue his gruesome campaign.

These ghosts, and more, haunt our world. They watch us, they torment us, they play with us, they find themselves locked in Sisyphean cycles, where the only respite comes through the haunting of the living.

It is our role to hunt these spirits down. Some believe we’re laying them to a deserved rest. Others hunt for the renown and to put down the homicidal dead. Others believe they’re doing God’s work, or with every hunt, their knowledge of the paranormal world increases.

We are ghost hunters, and regardless of our motives, it is our task to ensure the dead may no longer torture the living.

Ghost Hunters includes:

  • A broad, deep history of ghost hunter cells, and catalogue of weapons and artifacts ghost hunters might use in the World of Darkness.
  • Playable options among the hunters that fight with bullets and blades, and those who fight with belief and supernatural power. Alongside them, those hunters who would track, cage, and study the dead.
  • A wide array of story hooks and rich storytelling advice for those who wish to run a game of Ghost Hunters set alongside any of the World of Darkness 20A games.
  • An appendix containing a selection of antagonists your ghost hunters may come to face.

NOW ON KICKSTARTER- CHECK IT OUT!
