Project Update: 1st Stretch Goal Unlocked: Luxe Deck Upgrade + New Commission Tier + New Poll
We did it folks!! YOU did it!! We reached out first stretch goal!!
This means we have unlocked the Luxe Card Upgrade!
But what does this mean, you'll ask?
Well, it means that the cards will now be 350gsm, and not 300gsm, making them more durable and even more high quality, and they will also have a beautiful matte finish, to prevent shine and help with readability.
But that is not all!!!
In addition to the card stock upgrade, the deck box also gets an upgrade!
It had been a dream of mine to complete the "old tome" look with a box that matched the aesthetic, so I now bring to you the Magnetic Box upgrade! Made to open and look like a real ancient compendium of arcane knowledge!
You'll be able to proudly display this luxurious tome on your bookshelves and then surprise your party members with its contents!
And this also allows us to plan more tomes! How amazing would it be to have a full series of Arcane Compendium tomes?! *O*

NEXT STRETCH GOALS
Now that you know what you have already achieved with your incredible support, let's talk about the next steps!
We're on our way to our second stretch goal! At 20k, we unlock two new add-ons: a token bundle and the VTT implementation bundle!
The Token Bundle will collect the tokens of all the characters of the deck and unlocked expansions, ready to use in whatever platform you prefer for your online RPG sessions. And I'd love YOUR feedback on what type of formats you prefer for your tokens: framed or not framed? Would you like to see a special Arcane Compendium token frame or would you just want a classic & simple look?
Let me know in the comments!
The VTT Bundle will allow folks to access/download modules and/or assets for Foundry and Alchemy.
I'm already at work with them to prepare this collaboration and both platforms have been extremely excited about it! Great things ahead!

NEW COMMISSION TIER: THE SCROLL
But let's bring things back to what is currently available (but maybe not for long!!) on the campaign page!
I have added a new commission tier: The Scroll!
You are now able to get yourself a portrait commission (there's less than 15 available). This tier does not include any deck or expansion, just the commissioned artwork, but you can easily add the deck and expansions with add-ons.
OR, if you want the commission and the full set of deck and expansions, you can always grab the Artifact Edition (less than 12 available).
Here's a quick breakdown of the difference between the two.

NEW CHARACTER CREATION POLL
And finally, don't forget to vote on the second phase of our character creation poll! We're now deciding what "vibe" our character will have! You can find the poll right below this upgrade! :)
And don't forget that when we reach 250 backers, we'll have another poll to create a villain, since so many of you have requested it!

That would be all from me at this time!
Thank you all SO VERY MUCH for your amazing support!
Take care and talk soon! :)

CREATOR
Hey folks! Today at 2pm ET / 7pm BST, I'll be joining Peter and Miroki, creators of The Story Engine Deck, and Connor Alexander (Coyote & Crow) to chat about how to create great tabletop RPG settings.
We'll also be using the Lore Master Deck to quickly live-create a setting and discuss what aspects would make for the best basis for roleplay storytelling.
You can leave your questions in this thread on the Lore Master Deck's campaign or join us during the live and ask questions in chat!
The livestream will be broadcast on their campaign page or you will be able catch the replay on their YouTube.
See you soon! :)
Once we reach this goal, two new add-ons will be available: tokens and VTT implementation (Foundry and Alchemy)
Goal: $15,280
/ $20,000

We need $4,720 more to reach this goal.

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: FULLY FUNDED! Stretch goals are next!
We did it folks! Fully funded it just over 24 hours! Wonderful!
Thank you all so very much for your incredible support in this first phase of the campaign!
But this only the beginning: the road from now on only gets more and more exciting!
The next goal is reaching the first stretch goal at 15k, which will bring a luxurious upgrade to the cards!
And after that, there's the VTT implementation! I'm already talking with the teams behind Alchemy and Foundry to bring the Arcane Compendium to their platforms.
And by the way, if you have any suggestions for VTT platforms you use and would love to see included in the project, leave a comment and let me know! :)
There's just a few more hours available to grab the Early Bird offers, so tell your party mates to get theirs before it's too late!
The first commission slots for the Artifact Edition have already been claimed, so this is your last chance to pledge for one at a discounted price!
Also, don't forget to vote in the Character Creation poll, to create a new character together for the deck!
That would be all from me for now! Again, thank you all so very much for your amazing support and talk soon for more stretch goal updates!

Maybe it was the very first character you ever played?
Or maybe a memorable NPC created by your DM?
Tell me your favourite TTRPG character you've played or met in one of your games! °O°
(especially the weirdly funny ones ;D)

Some of us have been playing TTRPGs since we were kids or in High School, while others have discovered this world in the recent years, thanks to all the actual play shows and movies.
Personally I started on forums! When I was in High School I found a forum of Lord of the Rings fans and other than chatting about all things fantasy, we also had a "play by forum" campaign set in Middle Earth. We didn't really have a rule set, it was more about character development and story, but it was still very fun!
And then a couple of years later I took my first steps into the world of D&D! At the time we were using the 3.5 edition!
What was your first experience with TTRPGs?
