Hello Fablemakers fans! Very exciting update for you today, so lets get to it!

If all goes well, they will be arriving at our distribution partners across the world and start fulfilling near the end of June! Here are some photos of the mass production copies for you to ogle in the meantime:

Large D20 dice and Tarot Bag: Manufacturing is underway on these rewards, we are waiting on a full update from the manufacturers with details about when they will be ready to ship these out to our fulfilment centers.

Everything Else: Candles, Pins, Tarot Mats, Bookplates and Art Prints are all ready to go and resting safely at our fulfilment centers! They'll be sitting tight until we are ready to start fulfilling orders.

Stretch Goal #1: Living Fables - NPCs and Magic Items

It's here! We appreciate your patience as we get the stretch goals finalized, but we're happy to announce that the first one, Living Fables, should be arriving in your inboxes as this post goes out! You can find all your digital rewards on your Backer Kit, which is connected to the same email you use here on Kickstarter. Go check it out!

April Update: Production Continues + Featured Custom Cards
6 months ago – Wed, Apr 17, 2024 at 01:14:51 PM

April showers bring May flowers, but they also bring an update!

Production Progress

We are still waiting on samples of the updated, better quality cards for the deck - we hope to have them all before our next update. While we are waiting on those, we are continuing proofing on all the other rewards. More soon!

Featured Custom Art Cards

For the next few updates, we're going to feature custom art cards from Yoshi, along with the themes and potential abilities tied to them.

Name: Haunt

Theme: Regret

Drawing the Haunt card might find you haunted by a restless spirit, who needs your help with their unfinished business...

Name: Anchor

Theme: Hope

The Anchor card might give you the strength you need to keep going in the face of impossible odds, right as you need it...

March Update: Production Updates and Custom Art Cards
7 months ago – Fri, Mar 22, 2024 at 06:16:31 AM

Spring is here, and so is our March update!

Production Update

A print run was completed of the cards, but manufacturing discovered a problem that causes the cards to get damaged easily and they are not up to the quality we are looking for for this project. The factory is starting another print run as we speak and we are applying a protective coating to keep this from happening again.

Unfortunately, this does mean a slight delay but we don't want to deliver you an inferior product, so this will be worth the wait!

Original Art Cards from Yoshi Yoshitani

Yoshi has sent us the original art pieces for the Original Art Card Sketch Bundle tier and they are gorgeous. Over the next few updates we will be featuring specific cards, sharing their names and special effects when used in a Deck of Many Things. Stay tuned!

Time for the February update - we hope you love what you see!

Proofing Update

Proofing progress is still underway, and as Chinese New Year celebrations come to an end at the end of February, we will be able to start getting more proofs finalized. We do have a couple things to show off though - Reading Mats and the Large Liquid Core D20!

Reading Mats!

The manufacturers of the reading mats sent us pictures of the final mats and the art is looking crisp!

Flames

Fool

Balance

Death

Card Back

Vizier

Rogue

Skull

Oversized Liquid Core D20

We are very happy with how this is coming along, the colours and sparkle are pretty darn close to how we imagined them!

January Update: Proofing and PDF Progress
9 months ago – Tue, Jan 23, 2024 at 07:26:09 AM

Happy New Year, everyone! We hope that 2024 is filled with magic for all of you so far.

Proofing Progress for Physical Rewards

Files for the Fablemaker's Deck of Many Things physical rewards are with our manufacturers and we are currently waiting on physical proofs to review. Once we have them, we'll make an update showing off the progress and talking about any changes or tweaks we may want! From there we will have a better idea of the printing schedule and fulfilment timelines. 

One note: our manufacturers are affected by Chinese New Year celebrations, which take place next month. Depending on timing, that can cause some delays when it comes to getting physical proofs to look at, but we will keep you all posted if any major delays occur.

PDF and Digital Reward Progress

The digital rewards are under way! 

Living Fables NPC & Magic Item PDF: First draft complete! We are in the process of reviewing this document internally and after any revisions that are necessary we will be getting into the hands of our talented graphic design team to get it ready to share with you.

Dungeon Card Challenges and The Thief of Fate Adventure PDFs: First draft has begun! Our in-house writers are starting to chip away at these stretch goals, getting ideas together for a fun adventure and challenging dungeon encounters. More to come on this!
