Well yesterday was quite the emotional rollercoaster, as all first days on Kickstarter tend to be!

We finished the day slightly ahead of predictions and we're still going, so if you backed us yesterday, thankyou very much indeed.

If you haven't already backed us, you can check out our campaign here.

What is included in The Book of the Phantasm?

Long ago the one god of all creation, The Keeper, ruled the five dimensions, but as time went by he was slowly corrupted by vanity and madness, and his servants, the Graces rebelled against him.

Unbeknownst to the Keeper, a crafty spirit called Onikyass had been hiding in his shadow and when the Keeper was slain, he inherited the explosion of energy from the dying deity and unwittingly created the Phantasm, a parallel universe where he was trapped first as prisoner, then as ruler.

Five avatars, lost fragments of the Keeper’s mind, emerged to wage war against Onikyass and without his wily advisor, the Chamberlain of Thente, they might well have succeeded.

When your players cross over into the wartorn Phantasm, where armies dedicated to their avatar masters clash, they will discover:

Journey with your companions across the wild and war torn lands of Jaoran, and discover:

• The chilling horror of the Fate devouring Anomorvians.

• The ancient and primal earth crushing Archons.

• The giant elemental Goruginfolk

• The evil ‘Five’ avatars that control the destiny of an entire world.

Any new classes?

We have two new caster add ons - The Mirror Mage and the Seer.

Mirror Mage

In The Book of the Phantasm, you can learn to harness the power of the Mirror Dimension, creating weapons, items and armour, create illusions, scry and more using its fragments.

Seer

You can also explore different levels of reality as a Seer, communicating with creatures hidden to mere mortals, that exist in different levels of consciousness. Use Seer powers to travel in different realities, open hidden doorways and reveal secrets.

So we've really created an amazing new world for you to experience, one that comes with thousands of years of lore, new locations, maps and a mini campaign adventure at the end.

We hope you'll join us in backing The Book of the Phantasm, and help bring this book to life.

So join us in the Phantasm, back the project at £20 and above and we'll give you the whole back catalogue.

Many thanks
