April Monthly Update! (Patreon)

We're rolling into May! Let's check in on where everything's at.

Songs of the Spellbound Sea: If you missed it last month, V1.0 is available! If you never got in on the book, you can still grab it through Backerkit. Since we hit 1.0, we've had several weeks of back-and-forth with the factory - and now samples are officially in production! Very excited to get my hands on those.

Patreon: More growth! A decent chunk, actually, I'm hoping it keeps up! I'm also going to produce a piece of content every month that's locked to paid supporters for the month. So far they've been the subclass poll's runners-up, so last month it was the Order of Antiquity wizard, and this month it's the Beastlord warlock!

Discord:  A little bit of growth, probably coming about equal parts from Reddit and from here.

Social Media: A drip-feed of new followers, mainly on Bluesky.

Troubadour, Swashbuckler, Bloodrager: I still need to go back and cut the new free releases on these, it's on my to-do list.

Necromancer: The Necromancer rolls onward! I was hoping to get the alpha out to supporters in April, but it hasn't quite gotten over the line.

Subclasses: April saw the Way of the Silver Glimmer monk! And (as mentioned above) the timed-supporter-exclusive Order of Antiquity wizard, and the timed-exclusive Beastlord Warlock.

Species: None this month, but it's next month's supporter poll!

Magic Items: April queued up a magic item pack, including the Shield of the Glacier, Sanguine Athame, Lantern of Souls, Crystalheart Dagger, Hovering Missile, and Ascander's Greatspear. I'm about halfway done - should have these out this week sometime.

Onward to May!

Kickstarter: I should get the factory samples in a few weeks, after which we can enter full production. (It's possible we'll find issues with the samples, but I think fairly unlikely, as we've done a ton of quality-checking already.)

Classes: I'll be aiming to get the Necromancer into alpha this month, but no promises.

Polls: May's polls are up for one more day! Our subclass poll currently has the College of Flashpowder bard in the lead, while the supporter-only species poll has a revised Centaur at the top right now!
