Holy smokes, we can hardly keep up!!!

Thank you. Thank you. Thank YOU!

I was writing an update for the second stretch goal and went to eat some food then came back to find the 3rd stretch goal was unlocked too!

Congratulations on unlocking the following in the Stretch Goals:

Yes, we are including 1 additional new magic items with EVERY stretch goal that gets unlocked. This IS a magic item campaign after all. 

Let your friends know :)

"Adventure Area" sounds a bit ambiguous, doesn't it? Well, simply put, Sayuri's Chest of Wonders includes 3 short adventures that each include 3 areas as standard. BUT when you unlock a NEW adventure area, one of those adventures gets expanded with a new location the party can explore.

The 3 adventures are:

Those with high perception roles will have noticed that we mentioned the Guilded Falcons mercenary group in the adventure we created to celebrate 50 years of D&D. That adventure was Onions & Wagons, and it was a LOT of fun to design, and we ran over 112 players through it at Gary Con in March.

You can find it in the add-ons.

We'll post properly about the 3 adventures in another update, but this stretch goal means Assassin's Greed grows from 3 to 4 areas. There will be opportunities to grow the other adventures in other stretch goals AND there's even a stretch goal that connects the 3 adventures and turns them into a single level 1 - 5 mini campaign centered on Sayuri and her gang of course.

The adventure is set in the seaside city of Doroboshi which is heavily influenced by Japanese history.

Let's keep the wheels turning and unlock more stretch goals!

Hey folks.

Just wanted to keep you in the loop regarding development for this book.

The magic items are done and the adventure is well under way and is slated to go into editing next week.

We've been slowly chipping away at the magic item art and should be moving into the last few bits of custom art as per the reward tiers soon.

We're on course to publish the PDF by the end of September as planned. If anything changes on that front, however, we'll let you know.

The print books, of which there are only a handful since we wanted to keep them exclusive to those working with us on the art front, will take roughly a further month to process. It depends on how many samples we need to order before we're happy to go ahead with the print job. If the first one comes back as we want it, we'll go straight to print and since we're using a PoD service, you won't have to wait months on shipping. It'll go straight to you from whatever country you're in, unless you're in a country without a printer, in which case you'll have to wait an additional few weeks.

We're excited to see several projects cross the line over the coming weeks.

I'll post another update in September.

Cheers,
Paddy and team Penny Dragon

P.S. if you missed the project, you'll be able to get the book in our store in October/November, so keep an eye out for it on there.

Hello everyone,

It has been a busy few weeks in Penny Dragon land with a number of other projects all in varying stages of being closed out.  This is both pretty darn exciting and a tad overwhelming for a small team of creatives. There's no better feeling than hitting that upload button on a finished project, though! 

The writing and art for Sayuri's Chest of Wonders is well underway. The writing for the magic items is complete with a few requiring the final once over. The magic item art with take several more weeks to reach completion on the project as expected. 

I just received the latest WIP for our resident Lorekeeper, Alluminora. She features across a number of our publications and Sayuri's Chest is no different. I love that our artist, Liam, has added Sake to this one. He's a sneaky little devil that Sake!

We're looking forward to sharing a few more of the magic item pieces in the coming weeks, too.

The project continues to progress well and we're eager to get some spreads together later in July so you can get a better feel for the finished product.

Enjoy the rest of your week!

Good day, everyone!

Surveys have gone out and all your digital rewards, bar Sayuri's Chest of Wonders, are now on their way to you. Yay!

The art team are working on the magic item pieces at the moment and I will have a few more of those to share with you next week.

There will also be several pieces of art featuring Sake, Sayuri's little luck dragon, featured (hidden) throughout this book. We look forward to seeing who can spot all of them once this one is published. We enjoy bringing a little bit of fun into the things we create and this one is no different.

A Quick Note
 
Those of you that backed a tier that includes an art submission for your magic item or NPC to be included in Sayuri's Chest will submit your writing via the survey questions. There is a closing date for 1st of July on these so that we can ensure no delays when it comes to getting this project to layout.

Thanks again for the support on Sayuri's!

See you in my next update (next week :)),

Kayleigh & Team Penny Dragon
