Eldritch Century: Chronicles of the Wounded Earth core book is funded!

You are venturing to an adventure into the Miasma with us; this journey might lead you to horrific creatures with mysteries yet to be unearthed; your support will shape our story to make this alternate-history RPG core book a reality. Once again, we want to say THANK YOU!

Onwards to Stretch Goals!!! 

We want to include more art and content for you. More player options and additional models to share in the STL pledges. So if (when) we reach $12.000 USD we will add 25 pages with more art for the factions, a new general path and the STL model for all backers in the free bundle. 

 Please help us reach the stretch goals faster by sharing this campaign in your favorite RPG or 3D forums. Alternatively, you can also share our Facebook pinned post in any gaming groups you are part of. Thanks for your support! 

Half-way there!

Hello Minerva agents!

It’s time for us to say thank you for your support on Eldritch Century - 5e RPG Dual System's launch!

In less than 8 hours the project has already surpassed more than 50% of the funding goal with 100+ backers!

Eldritch Century as a setting has been in development for over 2 years and together with your support we will be able to bring it to life. Thank you!!

One of the cool perks about being a backer is to see 'behind the scenes' and the project development, so for this first project update we want to share a monster we have grown very fond of: the Flying Reaper. This will make its appearance in the corebook and also in the STL Bundle 2: Monsters for you to 3D print.

We are including a bestiary in the corebook so we had this monster's art re-worked. Here's a collection of images which depict the evolution of this monster since sketch to final art and sculpt.

The most noticeable features of this creature might be the double mouth or the scythes but did you notice the exposed heart on its chest as well? What about the eyes in the lower first jaw? The new version even seems more as a mutated human for some of us at Draco Studios which seems to be a more terrifying fate. Along with new art, we are also having the team re-write and edit some aspects of the existing monsters but here are some early notes from 1 year ago about the Flying Reaper when we first developed it. 

Scientific name: Novomegalania Pteronecis

Description: It has a wingspan of at least 3 meters. One of the apex predators any expedition could see. It has reptilian like appearance, elongated mouths, and a really aggressive stance.

Habitat: It seems to prefer high structures such as churches, mountains, and some canopies. It prefers to live on the fringes of the urban environment, where prey are more abundant.

Location: They seem widespread through the Miasma, although a high number of them were seen in the outskirts of Paris, Berlin and London.

Life and habits: The Novomegalania pteronecis is an apex predator, eating whatever it manages to catch in their maws, normally humans or big specimens of the Cervus plokanian that inhabit the Miasma.

It’s one of the few creatures that does not have a Magna specimen, as only big ones of over 3 meters tall have been observed. It may be possible that smaller ones exist as its reproduction, and development is still a mystery.

Highly resistant to bullets. Extremely dangerous. Approach with caution.
