Patreon Wizard Reward: March/April

Thank you to Dash4rd, who submitted the winning idea for one half of the double reward!  Here we have a lucky clover sprig finding a lucky penny!  Wonder where he found it.

Sprigs are naturally curious but shy.  They’ve been known to collect small objects when they think nobody is around.  Maybe this little guy stumbled upon a change jar or got under a desk!

Thank You!

On April 28th the Beyond the Pale RPG Patreon crossed $1600 and 100 Patrons!  This threshold marks the point where I can work on the project full time, fulfilling a dream I've had now for years.

Thank you to everyone who has put their support behind me and the project, through the good times and the bad.  Without all of you, there'd be no project, not like there is today.  ...

  • Should be "Safe for Work" (ie: No nudity)

The final point might be an issue for some, I know.  N...

Wizard Poll: February

Thank you to tsundereanubis, who submitted the winning idea for February.  The idea was "Magical Familiars of Varying Shapes and Sizes" and I decided to take it a step further and add in a witch hanging out with her familiars.

Witches store their arcane magic inside living animals, which they draw out when needed.  This taints the magic with the natural...

Pledge Status

Before I say anything, I'll just assure everyone that I'm still working on the project.  That isn't changing.

Due to my financial aid situation, I am going to have to pause all incoming pledges for the foreseeable future.  This means all supporters of any tier will no longer be billed.

You still still retain all benefits.  But until something changes, I won't be able ...

Quick Update

Sorry that things have fallen behind.  There's been a personal barrier regarding the Wizard tier rewards but it should be resolved soon.

I'm aware that the March reward was delayed so I will be creating TWO polls in April to make up for it.

I hope it isn't too much of a problem.  I will make sure that March isn't skipped as a result and everyone gets their money's worth. View Post

Happy New Year and Plans For 2021

First of all, I'd like to wish everyone a wonderful New Year.  I know 2020 hasn't been good for many people, myself included.  I can't say what will come in 2021 but for the time being I hope that everyone is managing okay.

Regarding next year.  I am still working on the beta test, though my aim for a release before 2021 was (in hindsight) too ambitious.  It is still b...

Update

Just letting everyone know that content is being produced.  However, with Halloween and the US elections coming up, I have opted to save the relevant lore entries for the second/third week of November to prevent everything being lost in the crush.

Work on the dice beta is going along nicely and I continue to maintain the end-of-year deadline.

Thank you all for your support. &nb...

Update

Hello everyone.

I'm giving an update on the progress of the hiatus.  I've managed to mitigate or alleviate several issues, however there are still some issues as of right now.

There are things that make the future a bit concerning right now but I feel like I've been on hiatus long enough.

For this reason, I'll be suspending the Patron rewards for one more month but will c...

Announcement

As some of you know, I've been struggling with several issues now for a while.  Financially, I'm in a pretty bad place and mentally I'm not doing well either.  My mental health has deteriorated again and the stress of various financial issues and uncertainties hasn't helped.

As a result, I am going to be going on hiatus for the month of August to try and remedy these issues. &nb...

Patreon Wizard Reward: June

 Darragh's idea for a damaged angel won the poll last month.  Tomis liked the idea so much that we decided to animate it, which is why it took a little longer than usual!

A still image will be made available for Patrons only as a special thank you to everyone who has supported the project so far!

Poll Lateness

Hi everyone.  I'm just letting you know I haven't forgotten about the poll.

There was some issues with the payouts this month and when it was resolved the 4th of July weekend had started.  I wanted to wait until it was done before I put anything up.

Expect the Wizard reward post and last month's winner to be up today or tomorrow.

Patreon Wizard Reward: May

Steven’s idea for a wild west warden gearing up won the poll!  We  decided to spice it up a bit and made him gearing because of an  unfortunate surprise!  

Even in the wild west there were people willing  to put their lives on the line to protect the people from the things  that lurk in the dark. 

Thank you to everyone who p...

Update: Health

I am letting you all know right now that I may have Coronavirus.  I am going to be tested and hopefully will have news soon.

I plan on continuing to work on the project regardless of if I have it or not.  New content is on its way.

Sirena Entry Now Available

Another entry for MerMay right at the end.  I wanted to make something a bit more 'traditionally mermaid' after the departure from the classical idea with the selkie.

Thank you to everyone for their continued support of the project.  Without your help it wouldn't have gotten this far.  Every little bit helps, every bit of financial and moral support you offer helps me get c...

Patrons and Sales Tax

Because Patreon is now charging sales tax for specific regions, I want to let everyone know that I have reviewed each tier and, hopefully, set each one to a relevant 'reward' for calculating sales tax.

My hope is that this impacts as few as you as possible. Please don't hesitate to contact me to discuss this personally if something comes up or a complication arises.

I really wish Pa...

I know there was a bit of a dry spell this month, but hopefully this'll help!  New lore is on the way thanks to several commissions I've made.  This piece was specifically created for MerMay because I felt it was appropriate!
