2 Weeks To Launch
Hello followers! We're so excited to be launching the campaign for Coven & Crucible: Reforged. This second edition makes the core mechanics of the game more streamlined. What...
It would be nice to be able to get the individual books as add ons. I purchased C&C as well as Unbound at Origins last year. I'd like to get Beyond without having to re-buy everything else.
We are one day away from the launch of Coven & Crucible: Reforged, and we couldn't be more excited! We are sitting at just over 700 followers for the campaign and hope to reach 800 by the time of launch. So if you would like to help us reach that goal, please share the campaign with your friends, your family, your mortal enemies, and random strangers on the street.
In our effort to get funded and to reward those of you who are early backers, we have two awesome incentives for those people who back us in the first 48 hours. The Art Goblin, Charlotte, has put together a sticker sheet featuring art from the book. Familiars play a large part of the game. Every witch needs an animal companion, right? Not only do familiars provide fun flavor for your character, but they add a mechanical benefit to the magic casting. The sticker sheet early backers will get shows three different familiars one could have for their character. There's the classic cat and toad, but also a jackalope. Who wouldn't want a fast talking lagomorph who is fond of whiskey and cigarettes as their sidekick?
Early backers will also receive an 11x20 poster print featuring signed by Charlotte. This print is a redraw of the original core book cover art. Charlotte wanted to play around with the core concept and make it more detailed, more colorful, and overall more magical.
The sticker sheet and print will be added to the rewards of each pledge made in the first 48 hours of the campaign.
If you are still uncertain about what Coven & Crucible is all about, we've posted a couple of videos on our Youtube channel where roach and Stephan talk about the game basics. You can watch the first part below. In it, roach & Stephan each break down the game in one minute or less. They talk about the origin of the game, as well as what the Coven and the Crucibles are. Finally, they talk about how the magic system works in the game.
We can't wait to see you tomorrow when the campaign launches and pledges open. Join us, won't you?
Hello all you lovely followers! We're about 3 days out from the launch for Coven & Crucible: Reforged and we couldn't be more excited. We'll have another update before the launch about the special gift those who back us in the first 48 hours will get.
Before we get to that, though, we thought we should introduce ourselves to you all. We're 13th Moon Games, a small, family run game publishing company. When we say family run, we mean it. The core team for the company consists of:
roach is an author of pagan and witchcraft books. Sew Witchy and A Witch Is … are two of her books published by Llewellyn Worldwide under the name Raechel Henderson. She is in charge of the setting and story aspects of Coven & Crucible.
Stephan Kelly is a pagan and a life-long TTRPG player. He is in charge of the mechanics aspects of Coven & Crucible.
The two met at a World of Darkness LARP in 2008. They are married. They started on writing Coven & Crucible in 2021 when roach asked Stephan if he wanted to take their relationship to the next level by writing a ttrpg together.
Art Goblin Charlotte is their daughter. She has been making art all her life and it is her lifelong passion.
There is also the Gremlin, their fifteen-year-old who helps out with the official Discord and other techinical issues.
We're a queer family of nerds; the kind that play board games and ttrpgs over Thanksgiving and call it Thanksgaming. We love writing Coven & Crucible and love sharing it with the world.
The game came about during one of those Thanksgaming days in 2021 when roach asked Stephan if he wanted to take their relationship to the next level. He immediately said yes. When she said she wanted to write a ttrpg with him, he was even more enthusiastic. We've been writing the game and a few supplements since then on a part time basis. Now, in 2026, we're ready to give this game and company our all. Where we were half-assing it before we're going full-assed.
Thank you for following this project. We're excited to launch the campaign on April 7.
Hello followers! We're so excited to be launching the campaign for Coven & Crucible: Reforged. This second edition makes the core mechanics of the game more streamlined. What isn't changing is the game's support of your unique character concept. The mechanics are there to support you in making the exact kind of character you want to play, rather than forcing you to change the character to fit the mechanics. The emphasis on collaborative storytelling is still there, encouraging characters to work together to solve problems.
Quick Start Guide
If you haven't already, make sure to download the quick start guide here. It contains a quick run down of the mechanics, guides you through creating a character, a link to a Google Sheets character sheet our good friend and playtester, Googs, made, and includes a sample scenario. You can also find a video here in which roach guides you through creating a character using the Google Sheets.
Witch House Quiz
Instead of factions, clans or classes, Coven & Crucible features Witch Houses. These are groups of witches who share a similar philosophy and approach to magic, or they are related by blood, or a combination of both. Witches join Houses for a variety of different reasons--resources, prestige, power, etc. Find out which House you would belong in by taking our Witch House Placement Quiz.
Launch Party and More
As we get closer to the launch of the campaign we'll have more information for you, including a special gift for those who pledge in the first 48 hours, polls and behind the scenes looks. We'll be hosting a live stream the day we launch, so stay tuned for information on that.
We encourage people to share our campaign to your friends and family, heck get your enemies on that share list, too. Word of mouth is the most powerful spell you can cast to help us succeed.
Thanks so much for following along, we look forward to bringing Coven & Crucible: Reforged to you!
