Hello everyone! It’s Zarek here, the Lead Designer, and we have a huge update today! All of our Backers should be receiving their digital rewards as you read this. We decided to use DriveThruRPG for fulfillment of all digital rewards, since there were a lot of issues finding digital downloads here on Backerkit with the release of our Manuscript. If anyone experiences any issues, please reach out to us!
The documents you should expect to receive are:
Super’s Information Codex V1.0 Final Draft, one full size file and one compressed
Indominant Character Sheet - SIC V1.0
Indominant Character Sheet - SIC V1.0 (Form Fillable)
Printable Power Cards, one file for each Powerset
Character Sheet Drive Slider STL
Combat Resource Tracker STL
Comic Editor’s Compendium Playtest Version 0.4
Our plan is to wait a week or two before placing the order for the physical books, so that we can make sure to get more eyes on the PDF and catch any possible errors before print. So please join our discord or send us an email with anything that you think looks like an error or mistake! With this plan, we still expect to begin fulfillment by mid-October.
Book Pricing Increase (Post-Crowdfunding)
We have decided to increase our pricing on our Core Rulebooks (including the SIC), because we made the decision to change our set of Core Rulebooks from 3 Books: the Super’s Information Codex (SIC), Comic Editor’s Compendium (CEC), and Threat Index (TI) to only 2 Books: the SIC, and CEC. As of today, the price for any future purchases of the physical SIC, and our future crowdfunding campaign for the CEC, have been increased to $59.95 from $49.95. This means that the total cost for the full set of Core Rulebooks for Indominant will now be $119.90 (without discounts and bundle pricing), instead of the previously planned $149.85. Our Core Rulebook PDFs will be unchanged at the price of $25.
As a quick confirmation, nobody that has pledged to this crowdfunding campaign or pre-ordered the SIC PDF will be charged any additional fees or money. This only affects purchases on or after today on our website or for pledges on future crowdfunding campaigns.
This also means that we are changing our plans for what content is within the CEC. Previously we had planned to only have guides for running the game, setting up Superhero stories and campaigns, and Threat Creation guidelines. Now we have decided to also include a list of around 100-130 Threats in the CEC, making it a complete package for Comic Editors to run the game, without needing 2 books. The Threat Index is still planned to be developed at a later date, but we plan to release it as an expansion-style book that is unnecessary to purchase in order to play the game.
Website Updates
We have also closed the Backerkit pre-order store and added a physical pre-order of the SIC book to our website’s store, as well as made the SIC PDF able to be directly purchased. The physical pre-orders will not ship until all Backers’ orders have been fulfilled.
Hello everyone, we just wanted to share a quick status update on where things are at with the PDF of the Super’s Information Codex!
Our Layout Artist is about complete with most of the layout, only needing to finish the Table of Contents and Appendix D: The Index. We are reviewing what’s been completed so far as she works to finish those and make adjustments where necessary or possible. We are expecting this to be complete on schedule, and sent to Backers in the coming weeks!
Here are some example spreads that we think show off the excellent quality she is producing! Keep in mind, there may be minor changes made before the final PDF is sent out.
Community Event - Player Versus Player Tournament!
As we’ve previously discussed when we were still in our playtesting, we’ve been wanting to run a tournament for Indominant. Our current plan is to set up a bracket of as many teams as we can fill spots. Each team would be a duo of two players, each playing as a single Super.
We would provide restrictions, requirements, and any Items or Credits allowed to be used/spent once we iron out the details.
In addition, the winning team would win some free rewards, which we will announce once the tournament details are locked in!
Poll for Upcoming Project
We’ve also attached a Poll to this update. We are starting to plan our next crowdfunding campaign that will be to fund the creation of the Comic Editor’s Compendium, or GM guidebook, and we want to figure out which add-ons would be the most sought-after options from our Backers!
Hello everyone! We have been noticing that there seem to be a lot of problems with getting your digital rewards through Backerkit. Whether it is confusion due to some placement of the digital downloads, or some folks just not getting their digital downloads, we understand the experience has not been the greatest.
With that in mind, we are going to send out the Manuscript PDF through DriveThruRPG, as well as the final PDFs once those are complete at the end of the month!
This update was quick and simple, we apologize for any issues anyone has had and we hope this helps correct those and get you your digital rewards more easily!
Make sure to check your digital downloads! Every Backer who has locked their survey has now been sent the file, as well as the changelog to give you a list of what has changed!
EDIT: To find the Manuscript PDF and other files you need to play: - Click your profile picture in the top right corner of any page on Backerkit. - Click the "Your Pledges & Surveys" button - Then on the page that brings you to you should see a "Your Digital Downloads" option on the top navigation bar. Click that. - Your digital downloads should show up there.
Our Layout Artist has begun work, and is going to be working on importing the full text into the document and applying the template page designs from below!
Hey Supers! Zarek here with another update on our progress.
Further Delays on Manuscript and Layout
We have just passed the date of June 1st for delivering the Manuscript PDF of the SIC. I personally take responsibility for this as I have not done a good job of planning around possible life interruptions for the team. My entire family and I got sick, and one of the team lost a family member.
I am sorry, but we need to delay the release of the Manuscript and the beginning of the layout work further. This time though, I think its best for us to just give a ballpark of being done within the next week or two. Our Editor just has the Tier 6-10 Talents to review, as well as the Lore Appendices. Then I have to finish my review and approval of that content, which I am not too far behind the Editor on. This means we are soclose to being ready to share the SIC manuscript and start layout!
Our layout artist has been working on the template pages (these are not final just yet, so some things may change), so that once she has the manuscript she can jump right into working on the layout! Here are some of the samples (we are still working towards finalizing some of the designs and styles).
Locking Orders
A part of the process that has also been delayed along with the PDF is the final steps in getting ready for fulfillment! We will be initiating the process to lock all orders this Friday, June 5th 2026. The final lock will happen early next week, and we will then charge cards.
Be sure to finalize your order, add-ons, and delivery address for everything!
That is everything for this update, and we will let you know when we send out the manuscript as soon as we are ready to send it out!
