We are preparing for our first Keshanar Playtest! This will focus on the player option mechanics including species, subclasses, spells, feats, and backgrounds. This will be an Opt in, so please fill out this form if interested. I'll be setting up a secure channel on our Discord Sever for feedback once the PDFs get sent out. Your feedback is really important to us! This playtest will be open to anyone that backed us at any level.
Happy to report that all the VIP dice are in the mail!
You all should receive them soon. If anyone does not get them in the next 10 days or less for North America and a bit longer for international then please let us know!
Thank you all for your patience!
Regards,
Dave
Greetings Keshites!
We have the VIP dice in mailers and labeled but there was a snafu with the post office and doing a massive bulk mailing. Basically the master barcode to do the mailing expired because we were at GenCon running 25 Keshanar OneShots over 4 days. Now we have to redo the technical mailing and payment process. Worst case scenario, they should all go out on Tuesday latest but probably Monday. Lessons were learned and we are sorry for the delay! We will make a post once they are all actually in the mail.
This will not happen with the actual full fulfillment of the books and other goodies as we have a fulfillment partner for that.
Thanks for your patience!
Dave
We wanted to give a few updates on where we are on everything. Dave and I are still working full time on everything Keshanar. This has been an interesting balance between locking ourselves away to focus on writing, and taking the time to do all the running the business stuff. Most of the writing at this point comes down to how best to present the content rather than creating it. Things like "Should this be a list of items or a narrative in this section".
Thank you for your patience and support as complete the Kingdom of Keshanar project and try to fulfill our super aggressive delivery schedule. On that note I am happy to announce that the VIP Liquid Filled Eye of Apep dice are going out soon! We have them all packaged up and ready to send All that remains is to print/apply the postage and get them to the carrier.
In a couple weeks Gen Con marks the end of a pretty busy con season for a few months. While the conventions have been a lot of fun, we're very much looking forward to being able to shift focus to producing the product.
We're going to be running an Opt-In playtest on our subclasses, species, backgrounds, feats and spells fairly soon. I'll be figuring out the mechanism for that after Gen Con, but expect it to be run through our Discord server. It's very important to me that the mechanical content is as balanced as possible so DMs can feel comfortable allowing it in their games. More than once I've been excited about a piece of third party content, but because of an oversite in balance I can't let my players use it because they'd just start one-shotting a Tarrasque.
We're still feeling confident on our release timelines of end of 2025 for digital and first quarter 2026 for physical goods. We still have a number of production decisions to make, but our list of unknowns is so much smaller than when we started!
I want to again thank you all for the support and guidance as we work to deliver the product you deserve! Always feel free to poke at us if we've missed an update or something isn't being done the way your used to or expect that it should be.
Many Many Thanks!
