Hello Patrons!
As we wrap up an unforgettable 2024, we want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible milestones and achievements this year. It’s been a journey full of growth, creativity, and, of course, plenty of dice rolls. Here’s a recap of some of the biggest moments that made 2024 so special!
This year, we launched our third Kickstarter: Monsters of Drakkenheim: Pluto Jackson’s Monster Slaying Guide, and it was a huge success! Thanks to the support of over 8,000 backers and $1 million raised, we exceeded all expectations. This compendium features 150+ monsters of eldritch horror and dark fantasy, perfect for any adventurer. Monsters of Drakkenheim will be available to backers digitally in mid-2025, and we currently estimate physical shipping will begin in the fall. If you missed the campaign, don’t worry—you can still check it out [here].
While technically launched in late 2023, Dungeons of Drakkenheim continues to grow in 2024 with a new wave of fans joining the community through D&D Beyond, Roll20, Foundry, and Ghostfire Gaming. It’s been amazing hearing your stories and seeing how the campaign has inspired so many of you. If you haven’t already, head over to D&D Beyond to explore the content!

This year, we had the opportunity to meet so many of you in person at:

We ran panels, hosted meet-and-greets, and signed our first copies of Sebastian Crowe’s Guide to Drakkenheim. We loved connecting with all of you and can’t wait for more conventions in the future!
With the release of the 2024 D&D rules, we’ve been diving into the changes and revamped our Class Guides and Tier Ranking videos, which you’ve loved! If you haven’t seen them yet, be sure to check them out—they’re packed with insights to help you level up your gameplay.
Our live-stream series, Fate of Drakkenheim, just hit 100 episodes! It’s been an incredible journey, and while we’re nearing the end, we’re crafting an unforgettable finale for our community. If you’re not caught up yet, you can check out the full playlist.
The adventure doesn’t stop here. We’re excited about what 2025 has in store:
Drakkenheim Finale: We’re preparing to wrap up Drakkenheim in an epic conclusion. Stay tuned for what’s sure to be an unforgettable end to the saga!
New Adventure: "Seasons of Silence": A new, character-driven actual play. Set in an idyllic valley, it’ll explore how a simple community handles evolving threats. We can’t wait to share this with you!
New Book in the Works: Following the success of Dungeons of Drakkenheim, we’re working on our next book—a Veo-focused guide full of player content and new D&D options.
Patreon Expansion: We’re planning more exclusive content for Patreon, including behind-the-scenes videos, monthly updates, and extra perks for higher tiers.
