An RPG book, to be exact, or at least, a splat book for alien races for a Sci-Fi setting called Myriad Song. Today the kickstarter has gone live, and I am doing my best to drum up promotion for it with the help of a friend of mine and his tabletop company, Sanguine Games.
I basically pitched the idea to my friend and he loved it, so he asked me to write up concepts for him. I was able to create 24 different aliens for the book, with some help from a few friends of mine who I am grateful for their support and help in this too.
Some of them have already made the cut thus far, in fact out of the 24 designs made, twelve of them are guaranteed in the book. The other twelve are up to you though, so the more donations, the better of course.
It's a long Kickstarter, and since it's a supplement book for a tabletop game...to be honest I am not expecting it to set the world on fire, even if it's it's an independent game that has gained a small cult following as time went on, but one can dream, it was a lot of fun to write. If nothing else, that in of itself was a good experience.
You might be wondering what Myriad Song is. It's a dice pool system game, where the more dice you have, the more likely you will succeed at a task or in combat in a nutshell. It has scaling and is very gift heavy, and unlike say D20 systems it is less crunchy than most games I would argue. It's also based on New Wave 80's Sci-Fi, so much of the art and style of the game falls into that design.
For me, it's one of the best sci-fi tabletop games I have ever played, and sci-fi tabletop games are hard to pull off, in my opinion. So I enjoyed it immensely, and to add to the world even further like this has been great.
Here is a link if you want to check it out at least. Hope you guys enjoy the concept art too that has been completed.
