A new elemental ancestry for MCDM's Draw Steel.
Obliterated by the forces of creation, you glimpsed the foundations of reality before being put back together as something entirely unique. Now you wield elemental powers as an extension of your being.
Essentians are a new ancestry for Draw Steel, the heroic fantasy TTRPG from MCDM Productions.
All that is came from seven fundamental elements. You are those elements given new life.
Obliterated by the forces of creation, you glimpsed the foundations of reality before you were put back together as something entirely unique. Now you wield elemental powers as an extension of your being. You might scorch or freeze enemies, soar overhead or burrow beneath, commune with nature spirits or conversate with the dead, implant visions of the unknowable into unwitting minds, and more.
Whether you are an amalgam of multiple energies that remembers much of your previous life, or a single element being whose completely shed who they once were, you will sculpt a new name for yourself as an Essentian.
If we reach the goal then backers should expect to receive their PDF soon after the campaign closes, certainly by the end of September. The fiction is written, a majority of the traits are already designed in varying stages of polish, and the others are mapped out for work in the coming weeks.
Layout and Formatting will be in the style seen above, with licensed art added throughout.
After the PDF is released to backers, the ancestry will later be available for purchase over on itch.io.
And stay tuned here to the Updates for the occasional peek at more traits as the release draws near!
