Vito and Andrew met while attending science and engineering high schools in NYC. Let's hear it for our fellow Stuyvesant and Brooklyn Tech Alumni out there!  Vito's foray into entrepreneurship and artistry dovetailed with Andrew's passion and cutting-edge pursuit of engineering, forming the basis for the skill sets which led to a mutual interest hobby turned business. 5th Epoch (which was often called "5E" before that term was otherwise coined in the industry) released its debut publication in 2007 at the Origins Game Fair, where it burst into the role-playing game scene. The pursuit was based on a thirst for adventure, a passion for gaming and an undeniable entrepreneurial sprit. The company has published over 1300 pages of gaming materials and supplements since, the latest of which was Battle Field Ops - leading them to the current moment in history. After proving the game is a success, it was determined it was time to take it to the next level!!

SaberGhatz ◦ Full-Time Artist & Plush Designer ◦  FL Hey, I'm Saber! I've been in love with art ever since I could hold a pencil and adore all things creative. I started freelancing in 2016, then gradually leaned into my love for designing stuffed animals! It's the most emotionally fulfilling thing I've done, and I'm so excited to share my creations with you. I've been launching my projects on Kickstarter since 2020, and just recently decided to join BackerKit! ♡ [ Here are some other places you can find me! ]

Here on planet Earth, we live in an age when "creativity" is sold over the counter. The creative process can be reduced to automatized prompts, the imagination put away like pool toys in winter. With a few clicks, people claim to be artists - and yet, the "art" hoisted by unblemished hands looks vaguely familiar. It's nothing new. Even the "artist" is the same as before... At Unfound Adventures, we believe that imagination & creativity are two of life's treasures. They are acts to be engaged in, much like dancing, swimming, flying, healing, or...levitation. They are playful, yes, but they are also testing. They teach you about yourself, about your values, about your mettle, and you come away as a deeper version of yourself. Art, therefore, is not the purpose of creative engagement but a colorful bi-product. The real gift of imagination & creativity is the knowledge of one's self, a chance to look squarely at the shape of one's vibrant spirit.  What began as a comic book project for ourselves has grown into a mission for the next generation. In everything we do, we intend to involve kids. We wish to stoke their imaginations, nurture their creativity, and provide them with tools & frameworks to go deep in their exploration of self.

Founder of Beagle & Bard Graphic Designer | Illustrator | Tabletop Game Creator

Co-authors, Janet Snyder and Kathleen Canova, “SILVER SISTERS” who’ve been friends for 50+ years, are self-proclaimed “Subject Matter Experts” (SMEs). Many of the themes and topics addressed in their Silver Series of Grown-Up Wisdom are inspired and based on a 30-Day Personal Development Program created by Janet entitled, "OOOH Crap! We Become What We Think About." Janet resides in Louisville, Kentucky where she is the mother of three and the "Nan" of two grands (with another on the way this Fall). After many years of personal struggle from the aftereffects endured from her own mental and emotional childhood/young adult trauma, Janet turned her focused attention to personal healing through self-study while aspiring to improve her own life. Also, combining her decades of work in the interior design industry with her love of the earth, she founded StoryBook Cottages for children. Intrinsic in her unique designs are the use of recycled materials and sustainable living green rooftops.  Kathleen resides in Westminster, Colorado where she thrives in her role as mom, and is fondly called "Yaya" by her four grandchildren. A successful entrepreneur in the promotional merchandise and natural supplement industries, she has also facilitated domestic crisis intervention, deep emotional and spiritual healing programs. Based on her own lived experiences with domestic abuse and after pursuing her emotional healing, she underwent extensive training and certifications. When she's not working and creating, Kathleen enjoys the beauty of the great outdoors, traveling, reading and spending quality time with friends and family!

I'm a full time artist and convention staple in the Austin, Texas area. I travel around the country selling my wares and carving out a swathe of the pie. I have a fine arts-like discipline despite being self taught and I bring color, life, dense composition, and snapshots of feelings to all I draw.

Greetings! My name is Eli Beaird, and I make graphic novels and tabletop games. I and my team are still very small but we are hoping to create some interesting projects to add joy to people's lives, even in a small way. Id say we like to create stories and games that we think are weird yet personal.

Joan of Art sells a variety of charms, pins, buttons, and prints--as well as on-site commissions. It is helmed by bisexual artist Grace, who lives in New England with her wife and two kitties. Grace's art is centered around video games, cartoons, the LGBTQ+ community, anime, as well as original/Gothic pieces. She is most known for her enamel pins inspired by survival horror, as well as her queer art. She considers her art style to be a blend of comic and anime, with a focus on portraits and queer relationships. Her ongoing mantra is to draw what she loves and what inspires her.  When she isn't drawing, you can probably find her playing Resident Evil or reading. She has vended in artist alleys at comic, furry, and anime conventions across the U.S., such as animeNYC, Otakon, and FanExpoBoston. You can presently find her Pride art featured in several small businesses across the country, such as Blackcraft HQ & Die With Your Boots On (Salem, MA), Requiem Mass (Los Angeles, CA), and Cottage Magick (New Orleans, LA).
