February has been an exciting month for Drakonym, and we've got some major updates to share about new tools and features coming your way.
Herald's Guide Alpha - Now in Backers' Hands
Last month, we reached a huge milestone: the Herald's Guide went out to backers in its first alpha version!
This is the GM resource you've been waiting for; packed with tools, guidance, and resources for running Drakonym campaigns. The alpha version gives you an early look at what the Herald's Guide will offer, including advice on building emotionally resonant campaigns, managing the unique mechanics of Drakonym, and creating memorable sessions for your players.
We know this is an alpha release, which means it's still a work in progress. We're actively gathering feedback from backers who've received it, refining the content, and making sure the final version is as polished and useful as possible.
If you've had a chance to dive into the Herald's Guide, we'd love to hear your thoughts. Your feedback is invaluable as we continue development.
Sanctum Integration
Drakonym is also being integrated into Sanctum, our all-in-one digital hub for the Akeroth universe. Sanctum will house everything you need to play and run Drakonym digitally, including:
Dragon databases with full stats and lore
Character creation and management tools
Searchable abilities, traits, and bond mechanics
Resources for GMs running Drakonym campaigns
Sanctum is being built to be the central platform for all things Akeroth, and Drakonym will be a core part of that ecosystem. Whether you're a player tracking your dragon's growth or a GM preparing for a session, Sanctum will have the tools you need in one convenient place.
What's Next
We'll have more detailed updates on Sanctum integration as development continues. We're excited to share more with you!
And as always, we're continuing to refine the Herald's Guide based on your feedback. The alpha is just the beginning, and the final version will be even better.
Thank you for riding with us. The bond between rider and dragon is at the heart of Drakonym, and we're committed to giving you every tool we can to make that bond come alive.
