Project Update: Lich #2: Hakon the Conduit (& August Update!)
Hello everyone!
I'm Stellar, Cosmo's partner in crime, and I'm going to be helping with managing more Backerkit posts so Cosmo can focus on working hard on the rest of the Arcton Encounter kit!
As of today, all 8 Liches of Arcton are now fully illustrated, and we're excited to introduce them to you in these upcoming updates alongside their officers (11 out of 14 officer illustrations done) and regions they respectively rule. They're all very diverse from their aesthetic, the magical domains they master and the various flavors of horror they encapsulate. There will most definitely be a lich for all the different campaigns you'd want run in Arcton, whether they be combat heavy scenarios or dramatic social encounters that rely on wits and investigation, so check back often to see them all and decide which you like best!
For this update, The lich we're introducing for our backers is Hakon the Conduit, representing Arcton’s foreign interests and affairs in gatherings and political meetings. This lich inhabits the prison of Ironnorth and oversees the region of Fraye, the capital of Arcton.
Along Wemyss the Merciful, Hakon is meant to be an approachable lich for players to face early on, as its influence is more political and the ways you can "fight" it can take on more social approaches. But just like any enemy, you can absolutely go for the hit-it-'till-it-falls route if that's what the players want to do!
For the next update this week, we'd like to talk about Hakon's officers and the capital of Fraye so you can have a bit more context of what you can expect for your player characters arriving to the city.
(We'd also like to officially open up the Discord server to backers later this week, stay tuned!)
