2021 Launch Titles!
Hello everybody and welcome to 2021!
It's been an amazing journey this past year. It was almost one year ago that we launched the Kickstarter, and we've been working hard since then. In this update we want to talk about the three launch titles for Promethium books!
Launch Titles
This may come as a surprise as we've been tight lipped about it but we have been working on more than just Cursebrand Chronicles. Advent Horizon is going to get it's own setting book and we've also started working on our fantasy setting Epic Age. I'm proud to present to you, in alphabetical order, our three launch titles.
Our first setting was created using OGL5 and will be a launch title the Promethium system. In addition, we will be going back to the original book and will be getting it proofread before rereleasing it! This hard sci-fi setting is perfect for people who prefer the exploration of space without having a party full of space wizards.
Summary: Welcome to the Arc, an expanse of the Milky Way nearly ten thousand light years across. A century after the genetically superior human Empyreans and the alien Xhu clashed over the fate of the colonies, a galaxy of adventure awaits!
Status Update: The majority of the concepts can be directly transferred over from the original setting document. This is not yet feature complete but unlike the other entries on this list we do have a complete set of art assets for it.
The OG setting from our Kickstarter, this magitech fueled dieselpunk setting is for those who want to live in a magic rich world but still have the amenities of a modern setting.
Summary: Born bearing the mark of the Cursebrand, players will explore Ghestal, a land rich in magic and tainted by a deadly Miasma, to which they alone are immune. The branded have the power to brave the wastelands and ruins where the corporations and governments dare not tread, yet those that succumb to the temptation of their cursed power are mutated and disfigured by it.
Status Update: We have received the final feedback in the proofreading process and just need to go back through to accept and update changes. Our current roadblock is getting the art for the book before we finalize the layout.
Epic Age is a fantastic story of magic, conflict, and danger. A fresh take on swords and sorcery, the Marchlands of Ruhl take players to a land comming to grips with the real consiquenses of magic.
Summary: Ruhl, the western most continent of Aerd is the center for the turning of the age. It was here that Elves and Dragons once ruled. And it was here that Ulvrick the Mad opened countless gates to the infernal Realm of Mekkon ushering in an age of darkness as demonic forces invaided. Six centuries have past and now heros and adventurers rise to seek out the wonders and dangers of teh world.
Status Update: As this is being written we're wrapping up the last few items before Epic Age is feature complete. We will be proofreading the setting and continue to work on getting the remaining art assets complete.
Launch Titles Release Date
All three titles are scheduled be released at the same time in March of 2021.
