This is it, adventurers! As you approach the volcanic den, your fated foe awaits- ahem. We have now entered THE FINAL DAY OF THE CAMPAIGN, and everything has been fully funded and unlocked!
🐉 So... What Happens Next?
Once the campaign concludes at 2:00pm CDT, expect your provided payment methods to be charged, and surveys to start rolling out so you can pick your pins!
We are on-track with the projected timeline, so backers will haveuntil August 11th (about two weeks) to fill out their survey. From there, we'll gather up the order information and pins will go into production! We expect to receive them around October for fulfillment, but we'll keep you all updated through the month as updates and samples come.
In the meantime, it seems pretty clear that there's some unfinished business... We're missing a whole five gem dragons in this bestiary - a sequel campaign seems obvious to us! Have an Amethyst teaser on the house, as we roll around what potential forgotten dragons or dungeon baddies we might wanna showcase down the line 🔮🐲
⚠️ ABOUT SURVEYS (Important, Please Read!) ⚠️
You may not receive your survey immediately - a few tests will be sent out first to make sure everything's good to go!
This may take up to a few days, but we'll keep you updated. You'll get an email when your survey is ready either way! Once you receive your survey, you'll be able to select your preferred pins, provide your shipping information, and pay for sales tax (depending on your location)! If you've changed your mind about your pledge level, or potentially want to add more to your order, you should be able to edit your pledge from the survey.
All 10 of the chromatic and metallic dragons, as well as bahamut, are available as choose-your-own-pins, so you're free to jot down any combination of dragons you can think of when requesting your rewards. The kobold mini-pin set remains its own unique item, so remember to include it as an add-on if you didn't pledge for its tier.
📜 Some Sap From the Artist
I truly mean it when I say this: there aren't enough words to describe how blown away I am by your guys' support. Being my first ever crowdfunding campaign, it's been extremely heartening to see your guys' feedback and participation! TTRPGs have been a huge part of my life for so long, so getting to combine and share my interests and share this with you folks has been incredible, not to mention the hype pouring in these last couple of days through the home stretch.
I'd be remiss to not shout-out my partner Atom [twitter] for helping me through this entire project. Be it watching me agonize over the smallest details of the art, offering a hand to polish up the vector artwork for manufacturing, they've been here to lend an ear every step of the way. I'm so incredibly lucky to have their support and guidance from the very beginning of this campaign.
To my party members, of whom I've been playing alongside in two separate 5e campaigns weekly for the last three years: I know you're reading this, and you know you're all responsible for this whole mess. I'll see you all in the Nine Hells.
And of course, to all of the amazing backers that helped fund this campaign, from the bottom of my heart - thank you SO much!! This whole thing wouldn't be possible without your guys' support.
Anyways, that's all! We'll catch you VERY soon with surveys, take care out there on your travels! You never know what foes may be lurking in the shadows...
