Combat Maneuver Cards For Pre-Order & Birdfolk in Gate Pass Gazette #5
almost 2 years ago – Mon, Jun 27, 2022 at 10:09:33 PM

Hello folks! We've got a couple of exciting announcements to make in an update crammed full of news! Previews of the Dungeon Delver's Guide and Gate Pass Gazette #5, a CR 26 archlich stat block, and pre-orders open for our Combat Maneuver Cards!

Dungeon Delver's Guide Previews

If you head on over to the official Level Up website, you'll see that we've been running previews and articles all about the upcoming Dungeon Delver's Guide (coming to Kickstarter this Autumn).

The Mouthless One

With millions of people watching Stranger Things this month, you might be curious what the Level Up version of an archlich might look like. Well, we’re working on one for an as-yet-unannounced project, and we thought we’d give you a preview. If you want a truly challenging end boss, give it a try. Just don’t blame me if your characters learn secrets they weren’t meant to know.

Gate Pass Gazette #5

Here's the contents of Gate Pass Gazette #5 coming in July.

  •  Canticle of the Wing. The simirengo are an eclectic avian people with a deep connection to nature. Different groups display characteristics from the birds their ancestors bonded with, meaning there are potentially as many different kinds of simirengo as there are birds in the sky. This article introduces mechanics for the simeringo heritage, as well as three related cultures. By Thiago Rosa.
  •  The Western Shore. Flanked by towering cliffs on one side and the treacherous ocean on the other, the Western Shore plays host to a variety of unique monsters and hazardous exploration challenges. Your heroes won’t have to face these trials unaided, however, as the beach is also home to potentially helpful NPCs and the assistance they can provide. These mechanics can be used separately or in conjunction to populate your oceanfront adventures. By Marc Kenobi.
  •  Synergy Feats for Extraordinary Heroes. Finding oneself is often a strange endeavor, and the places these journeys take a hero can reveal uncanny powers and astonishing truths. This article features several first-class synergy feat trees to bring out a character’s hidden strength. By Mike Myler.
  •  The Zephyr's Complement: Steamfantasy Archetypes for an Airship Crew. Daring feats of prowess, fantastical machines, and acts of eldritch gunslinging are just ahead! Whether used together as a crew or individually for a sepia-toned loner, these archetypes are for innovative characters driven to meld steam, magic, and steel. By Rachel Williamson.

ZEITGEIST is coming separately!
almost 2 years ago – Sun, Jun 19, 2022 at 03:31:54 PM

We've had quite a few messages from folks surprised that their Level Up package did not include Adventures in ZEITGEIST, so we thought we'd clear it up!

As we said from the beginning, this book is arriving separately, as it was not part of the primary print run. It will be with you a few weeks after your primary Level Up delivery. The UK and rest of the world backers are receiving theirs as we speak; North America backers will get theirs as soon as the laws of physics and geography allow!

In the meantime, to whet your appetite, my own copy arrived just this week!

We can't wait for you to see this book. It's gorgeous!

This issue contains...

Battlefield Horrors: The Cadaver Gorgers

Making their home on fresh battle grounds and forgotten mass graves alike, the creatures collectively known as cadaver gorgers are different stages of the same life cycle. Features the hungering blood maggot, the unsettlingly clever corpse fly, and a walking disease vector in the form of the gorger zombie. By Tim Korklewski.

Well-Equipped: Items of Intrigue 

In every noble court across every plane, behind the pageantry, wealth, and gaiety, there is one thing in common: intrigue. The following magic items and armaments in this article are intended to give any player character or NPC an edge—figuratively and literally—in this dangerous game, all while ensuring that they look elegant and well-attired. After all, if one is going to walk the halls of power, one of course must be properly equipped. By Sarah Breyfogle.

Ways to be Fey 

What happens when make-believe believes it’s real? This article features a new heritage in the form of the fey creatures known as the dreamborn, as well as the Dreaming Wilds and Fey Court cultures and the Fey Servant background. By Ryan Nock.

Lone Rangers: Braving the Wilds Without Spell or Beast 

A request that has been circulating in the Level Up community since the release of the Adventurer’s Guide is for a ranger without spellcasting or a pet. As it turns out, that’s a pretty broad set of parameters, so in this article you can find not one, but three such ranger archetypes! By Peter N Martin.

How to Report Any Damaged Books

We want all backers to enjoy their books, but we know that occasionally a shipment can become damaged in transit.

If your books are damaged, we will of course replace them! So what should you do if your rewards are damaged?

1. If your items are damaged and you need a replacement please contact QML (our fulfilment partner in the US) in the first instance. They have a form on their website here where you can fill out your information and have them send you a free replacement. (qmlogistics.com/contactUs) 

It’s handy to attach an image of the damage for QML to see, as this helps us recover costs from the courier as a publisher. You (the backer) will not be charged for the replacement product or shipping.

2. If you have issues with QML sending your replacement, please forward your email chain with QML to us at EN Publishing to [email protected]. We can then take a look at what has happened, and help resolve this for you.
