Greetings Human and other life forms,
Happy New Year! I hope you had a fantastic and wonderful Holiday Season!
I am excited to announce that our first Mini-Kickstarter just launched! We are planning to do a series of these to bring the next season of the Seventh Moon Adventures to life!
I hope you will help us bring this next portion of the series to life!
Welcome to the World of Celia, home of the Seventh Moon Adventures!
We're thrilled to unveil two brand new books and take you on a journey through the rich and vibrant world that has been the backdrop of every adventure we've written over the past few years! The Mausoleum of Ashes and The World of Celia -Free Cities of Ravosa Regional Guide are not just books - they are gateways through the unexplored realms of the multiverse!
This Kickstarter is designed to bring to life two unique projects, and one of which we have been working on for over a decade now.
First, we introduce the Mausoleum of Ashes, the start of the second series of the Seventh Moon Adventures. Building on the success of our first series, we're planning to expand the horizon with nine new volumes this year, each one being a zine-sized treasure trove of short, intense adventures.
Secondly, we present The World of Celia Regional Guides, a brand new series offering an in-depth exploration of the diverse and mesmerizing regions of the World of Celia, starting with the captivating Free Cities of Ravosa. Join us in bringing these rich, detailed worlds to life, and be part of the adventures that shapes them!
New Kickstarter Launching Next Month
12 months ago

I'm planning to launch a few smaller-scale Kickstarters this coming year, and the first one will be coming next month, and will be for the Mausoleum of the Ashes, the continuation of the Seventh Moon Adventures with Episode 1 of Volume 2 for the series!
For those of you not familiar with theSeventh Moon Adventures, they are a series of short adventures set in the World of Celia! Each adventures lasts about 2 sessions, or around 7-10 hours, and are written and illustrated by me!
The Mausoleum of the Ash is a mysterious dungeon buried deep within the Heart of the Axiel Rainforest, far removed from the bustling life of the nearby town of Javos. The mausoleum was once a sacred resting place for the Emberguard, an ancient order of fire-wielding warrior guardians, who sought to protect a powerful artifact known as the “Heart of Embers.” Recently, however, a cult known as the Children of Ashes, has taken up residence within the ruined temple, desecrating its hallowed halls and seeking to harness the power of the artifact for their own twisted purposes.
This Adventure is already written, so this one will pretty much go straight from funding to fulfillment, and is designed for five 3rd-level player characters and while it is set in the World of Celia, it can be adapted into any existing campaign!
But wait! There's MORE!
I will also be revealing the FIRST edition of the World of Celia Regional Guides, the setting for the Seventh Moon Adventures and the Tome of Dungeons! I have been slowly writing this for the past few years, and I am planning to put these books out as small sectional soft cover books that cover that over time will cover the entire setting!
I am honestly more excited for this part than any other part of this Kickstarter! This is a labor of love that I have worked on for a long time. To be honest, this is something that has been slowly built up for over a decade, as I started running this world 12 years ago with my D&D group!
This first book will be for the Free Cities of Ravosa, and is the starting place of the Mausoleum of the Ashes, as well as a few other adventures from season one, including Labyrinth of Moghajur and Lost Sanctuary of Altrius, as well as Deathmist Vault and Shattered Chapel from the Tome of Dungeons! I am making this available in PDF and in Print and will have a Poster Map of the Region available all as Add-Ons in the Kickstarter! So if you are interested in getting the adventure, or the setting, both will be available!!! Hype!
Rewards include:
PDF and all Digital Files
VTT Editions (Roll20 and Foundry)
Printed Zine-sized soft cover book
Add-ons include:
Free Cities of Ravosa Regional Guide PDF
Free Cities of Ravosa Regional Guide Print
Free Cities of Ravosa Regional Guide Poster Map
Seventh Moon Adventures Voume One complete bundle (6 PDFs)
Tome of Dungeons PDF
Tome of Dungeons Deluxe Print (only 25 copies left from this one time print run)
Stretch Goals will unlock STL Files, Printable Character Sheets, printable Coins of Celia STL files, Random Encounter maps for the Jungle, and more, and all stretch goals will be available for every backer, even at the lowest tier!
Foundry Conversion FINISHED!
over 1 year ago
– Tue, Aug 08, 2023 at 11:37:36 AM
We just sent out the Backerkit link to all of the Tome of Dungeons FoundryVTT modules!
Check Your Email for your Foundry VTT Link!
They are all done, and I am not seeing any errors on my end (though if anyone finds any please report them to me, preferably on Discord, and I can get a patch made) But they are done!
Deluxe and Cards
Anyone still waiting on their copies of the Deluxe and/or Cards decks - I am in contact with Easyship, USPS lost some of the packages (8 boxes to be specific, so sorry if you are one of those 8) but we are working to figure out how to move forward on them. Essentially they picked it all of my packages up and we had an issue with them not being media mail, so they returned them. I updated all shipping on them and dropped them all off, but it appears they did not return everything to me. but did so they never scanned those 8 packages that are missing. So there is a complication with the insurance on that, because insurance is attached to when they are scanned. But they still picked them up and it was their failure to scan them or return them to me, so I am not sure how that will unfold. I may have to bite the bullet and cover the cost (which I still have extra copies of both here, but I would like to be covered for them as they were both very expensive to produce, especially the deluxe book).
Posters and Zines
All Posters and Zines are shipping out this week as well! I am making our labels for them all today!
All that will be left after that is just the Shard conversion!
Ninetoes Guide to Monster Hunting
We are pretty much done writing this book, and I have a few of the maps pretty much finished. I am working primarily on that this month and hoping to have the bulk of it done by the end of the month so we can enter the printing and converting phase next month! We funded Ninetoes Guide to Monster Hunting during Zinequest 2023!
Future Kickstarters
I know a lot of you have asked what's next, and we have not fully decided what will be next from ME on Kickstarter, but it is narrowed down to either:
A) My Setting Guide for the Seventh Moon Adventures
B) A series of Zines that will be "Volume 2" of the Seventh Moon Adventures - We have already written 3 of them. Volume 1 was 6 zines (which many of you picked up as Add-ons in this campaign), so we are either going to do 6 or maybe expand to 8 in this Volume.
C) A combination of both of the above? I might start doing little mini-kickstarters for each zine once it is finished and written to cover the print cost. As I mentioned I already have 2 zines written, and I have a solid 400 pages worth of content written for my setting (but needs to be proofed and structured). I am not sure if I would rather do the setting as one huge book, or do it as a series of zines, and get more out more often. I am leaning on the zines, and doing the first one as a larger "overview" of the full world, then focussing the future ones on more zoomed-in locations.
Tome of Dungeons 2 will be a thing eventually as well! A lot of you said you wanted that in the Backerkit survey, and a lot of people have encouraged "More of this" on Discord, so it WILL happen. BUT! I want to be ahead next time I run a big Kickstarter instead of just coming here with an idea and then working on making it happen for a year and a half. As amazing as it was to just post a concept here and have all of this tremendous support, and incredible patience, I want to be able to fulfill it faster. That means I need to have the work finished (or close enough to finished) to be able to go right to playtesting and production next time, that way isn't a year-plus wait to get you books and modules! I am happy I did it this way last time because I learned a LOT of what goes into it all, so the next big one will be smoother, faster, and all-around better!
But I do think as I build myself to that I want to do the smaller Zines as I can get those out immediately when they fund, and THEN when a bigger book is ready I can launch with a whole lot less stress.
Also, another idea I had was maybe doing a map collection. I have a lot of maps made, so I might do something with that and maybe even offer some posters up for prints of some of the dungeons I have made in the past. I still haven't decided on that one, I would rather Kickstart NEW content than old content, but I can see the possibility of a one-time "the entire collection of 10 years of work" into one discounted Kickstarter being a thing. Let me know what you all think if that is something you would be interested in supporting or not? I mean, you can already get most of my backlog on Patreon, so at the very least if I ran this it would be for the same price as my backlog tier over there, just on this platform instead. Like I said, I am still not sold on that idea, but if it's something people want... then who knows.
Anyways!
THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN!
Rant over, Thanks for the support! The final bits are coming - The Posters, Zines, Shard, and the "missing packages"! They are all coming soon! Thanks for the patience and thanks for being awesome! Feel free to message me or hit me up on Discord if you are still having any issues!
ALSO if you get a book in and it was damaged, message me with pics! I put insurance on all of the Deluxe and Cards so you WILL get a replacement if yours was damaged in transit!
