Last Chance!
We are so very very close to unlocking that 35k stretch goal of VTT support! Now's your last chance to get in on the kickstarter prices. We will have a backerkit pre-order store open up just following the campaign if you want to wait and see. The dice and pins won't be on there right away but we will keep you updated on that progress as well, don't worry!
Thank you all for the incredible journey it's been so far!
A Book with Three Classical Fantasy RPG Adventures for Fifth Edition (Dnd/D&D)
The Prophecy of Nine Omens Trilogy is a book with three classic adventures for the fifth edition of the world’s largest roleplaying game. They are designed for characters of level 10 to 12, but includes scalable encounters to suit any level from 1 to 20. The adventures can be played as a continuation of the Rise of the Ice Dragons Trilogy or separately as one-shots.

We have Less than 20 hours left!
As the campaign comes to a close we have a few hours left to push through to that VTT stretch goal. We're so close and it's well within our grasp with only a handful of backers needed to get there. We are overjoyed with how well this campaign has gone and excited to start getting that extra content added to the book. We can't thank you all enough for sharing and talking about this project with your friends. You've helped us smash through many of our goals for the expanded content we wanted to include. Thanks again for all the support, we truly appreciate the support we've received. We wanted to give you a couple of previews into things that we'll be offering after the campaign ends through our pledge manager and pre-order store.
Don't these PDF renders look nice!
Dice Set!
We thought it would be really cool to have a dice set for Tavern Tales and have been vigorously researching on how to get it done. We've spoken with several manufacturers this month, and just ordered our first test molding batch today! So hopefully everything works out and we can show you even more in the next month! Below is a design we have been working on with our dice manufacturer, the dice in the image are not the final product but are the design we're hoping to replicate. We are going with gold inked numbers and the custom font in the template. As soon as we've approved a design the dice will be available in the pledge manager and pre-order store. Let us know what you think!
The dice pictured above are NOT representative of a final product.
Enamel Pin
We thought it would be fun to do a hard enamel pin feature the cute little owlbear cub we've been showing from the artwork so we've been looking for a good quality pin producer. We will be offering these adorable little cubs as well at the pledge manager and pre-order store. This is the art we'll be using and as soon as we've got a demo we'll be sharing it with you.

We just received the new artwork for the subclasses you voted on and wanted to share it with you today!
Owlbear Tamer Rogue
First up we have the owlbear tamer ranger. I ranger who has devoted their study to bonding with one of the most dangerous creatures. Rearing these fearsome beasts from a young age into adulthood making them a lethal weapon, and sometimes cuddly pillow.
Pact of Ink Warlock
Second up we have the Tattooed Wonder Warlock, or we've been playing around with Pact of Ink. This Warlock's bond with their patron takes the form of arcane markings all over their body allowing them to summon powers from these tattoos including a powerful capstone ability to summon an ink demon from the depths of the abyss.
They have given us a sneak peak into a little more of what this Adventure Journal has to offer and it looks delightfully thorough. Go check them out if you like a little more organization in your campaign.

The Cocktails IRL at A Trip Away Inn
As part of the physical menu we said we would be including instructions on how to cook, mix, or craft all the ingredients within the menu. Last week I took a stab at a couple of the cocktails we had our mixologist put together and they are delicious.
Elven Aerialist
A perfectly strong drink that isn't overly sweet. Despite not having the proper cherries we pressed on and thoroughly enjoyed this gin, floral, and lemon delight.
The perfect refreshment after a long arduous battle. The Vorpal Sword Swallower cuts right into your taste buds with a burst of hot spices and smoke from the mezcal, followed by a crackling lime and grapefruit finish. I will definitely be enjoying this drink year round.
The Golden Feather
Our new friends at The Golden Feather gave us a lovely shoutout on their latest twitch stream, it is so lovely to see people excited for the book! They have some incredible content about the upcoming Ashes of Creation game as well as some curated info regarding content creators and the gaming community as a whole. Go check them out.
Thanks for all your support, comments, and messages so far. It's really driven us and we can't wait for you to step through the door at A Trip Away Inn.
