Hello Notoriously Stylish Folks,

The last month (and some) has been a roller coaster.
Here is the TL;DR: US Tarrifs ✅ Adobe -> Affinity ✅ Arlo's PDF ✅ Map ⏳

The lore and mechanics half of the PDFs are live here on itch.
The map to follow up soon.

Detailed info for backers bellow!

Thank you all for your support!
We would not have done it without you, so give yourself a well deserved self-hug.

We are well exited to bring Arlo to your hand, but we have a bit of admin to do to get there.

First is we will leave the actual pamphlet alone for a week or two.
We want to look for typos with fresh eyes once more before getting a text only version out.
Once that's out, you'll have a chance to give us some feedback before it is all layed out.
We hope to have some text only version out by the end of February, this will be available on itch.

Also sometime this month, you should hear from Backerkit's pledge manager.
This is the part where addresses, shipping fees get sorted out.
Some of it is down to us, but there is a also a review process by backerkit, hence why it is not instant.

Sometime in March, we should have all the addresses, all the feedback on the text, and the sample from the printer sorted.
Depending where you are in the world, and how busy the printer is, we should aim to have everything delivered and in your before end of April.

It goes without saying that there are a lot of other fantastic folks with campaign still running.
Actually there are a lot of them, so we can give a shout out to all of them, but here is a small selection.

Utilizing the powerful medium of roleplay, this anthology holds space for intersectional blackness in the past, present and future, giving us the opportunities to tell our own unique stories and share our unique perspectives.

What happens when places of great power are abandoned ? No more laughter in the alleys ? When no one is there to shape what is to come ? The power, the Spark, is still there and it's your job to get it.

You are on a mission to investigate extrasolar planets, gather and share knowledge, and do no harm. You live on your ship and venture out onto planets to research and interact.
As the Traveller, specialist, crew member and former earth dwelling human you make a record of your journey for an Earth that may never see it or hear it.

Your character is an astronaut with the Earth Engineering Enterprise, a company founded to colonize other planets in our solar system. Your contract is to deploy various terra forming machines in the planet Venus. Your employment is a mere year of a centuries-long mission.

This is the zine by our pals Meldar16, so if you back their project you get extra stuff!

Hey Folks,

Thank you for getting us 2/3 of the way.
And with you help we might get the other third of the way before the end of the campaign.

We worked on Arlo since 2023, so to say we cannot wait to get it in your hands would be an understatement.
We have tweaked the oracle many times over, and playtest to mesh well with Notorious Style.

There has been a lot of thinking into making the oracle also work for any GM to use in the NSR or rule light TTRPG.
So much so that we might even have a background for cairn2e that is too big to fit here, but might become something we release on its own.
Anyway Arlo's setting does work for any games were factions play an important part of the story.

We also got interviewed on a French podcast, where we talk about Arlo, Notorious Style and more:

If you want to help us get us to the finish line, do share the word!
So post about Arlo your own socials, with you gaming group and at your local FLGS.

Speak to you soon!
