The setting guides released previously do provide certain materials needed to understand some mechanics. For example, the Sword Saint, Inscriptor, Favored Soul, and Ranger 5.19 classes are in Lyre's Guide to Retia, and they aren't included in this new book despite having subclasses available.

Not at all. This project is a print run only. The books are already complete, and nothing new is being designed for them (unless we hit the compendium goal). This will be a matter of ordering, shipping, and delivering, and the profits will be used to help fulfill our previous project.

In 2025, we began a project that involved making "splash books" (known otherwise as splat books) for 5th Edition D&D on a 3-month turnaround. Each focuces on pockets of content in our setting, as well as specific themes. Our stream community helps to fund the books, three of which are complete, and a fourth is currently in production

We began our previous projects before the tariff situation in the USA became a reality, and as a result, we've encountered difficulties with importing. To avoid that, with this project, all of these products are being printed within the USA, and will only be exported to Canada, to avoid complicated shipping situations. Foreign customers will be able to purchase overflow stock from our website after the campaign ends though!

Digital rewards will be distributed through DriveThruRPG's complimentary copy distribution system. Once the digital files are ready to be distributed, backers who would receive the PDF will be sent a complimentary copy to claim on DTRPG by E-mail, and will have access to all digital files and updates through their library on that site.

BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.

If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.

Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.

1. Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
2. Select any add-ons
3. Confirm your pledge!

• You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
• Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.

After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey to pay for any applicable shipping fees, calculated based on your shipping address.

Pay Over Time allows you to split your pledge into multiple payments over a set period. Your card will be charged according to the payment schedule (four monthly payments). Only available for projects that enable this feature. Learn More »

Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.

You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.

Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.

For specific questions about your pledge or the project, you can view the Project FAQ below, search for your answer within the project, or send a message to the BackerKit Support Team or to the project creator.
