Project Update: October 2026: Reward Delivery - UNDERWORLD ADVENTURES Backer PDF

Hello Deep Delvers,

It's time for our monthly summary and reward delivery update. 

This summary is a compilation of information available from Onyx Path:


While many of us wait for Onyx Path to work through their printing backlog, there are still rewards moving forward and coming out to us.

Remember this Stretch Goal from our campaign?


It was one of four Stretch Goals we unlocked that ended up forming the outline for UNDERWORLD ADVENTURES and now it's ready to go out as a backer PDF.


Reward Distibution: THE WORLD BELOW: UNDERWORLD ADVENTURES Backer PDF


Within the World Below’s jagged tunnels, unlit depths, and crystalline caves, a brave party of heroes risks falling to the same grim fate as so many of their forebears. Or maybe, just maybe, this party will be the one to slay the great predator, discover a lake of bounties, and seize treasures for their people.

Underworld Adventures provides Storyguides and players with four complete scenarios that can be played independently or as one epic-length, interlocking campaign, played either as the same characters age and gain experience or across generations, as one group of heroes passes their torch on to the next.

Underworld Adventures includes a plethora of new random encounters, events, and phenomena, along with:

  • In the Roots: An adventure where our heroes must explore the settlement of Root-Home and find a means of dealing with the parasitic threat inhabiting it — or escape before they too become infected.
  • All That Glitters: A mystery in which our characters must ascertain why the settlement of Aden’s Slide has become a ghost town, with the ever-present threat of cannibals just around the corner.
  • Treasures in the Stream: An exploration in which our survivors must journey to forbidding Glowstream and resolve a conflict between the bloodthirsty haemexii and shapeshifting klo’tha.
  • The Well Lich: A grand slaughter where all the events until now have led us to face that most ominous of threats, the Well Lich.


REWARD DISTRIBUTION

If this PDF was on your list of rewards, your link to claim your THE WORLD BELOW: UNDERWORLD ADVENTURES Backer PDF will be sent out by our BackerKit pledge manager over the next day. Since we are using our partners at DriveThruRPG as the host for this, you will need to set up a DriveThru account if you don't have one already. If you encounter any problems with downloading your rewards, please contact DTRPG's customer service to resolve the matter, they've always been top-rated for customer service. http://www.drivethrurpg.com/contact_us.php



Again, you will receive an e-mail from BackerKit with links for this reward over the next 24 hours if it is on your expected list of rewards.

The easiest way to see if you've got digital downloads available is to login to your backerkit account: https://the-world-below.backerkit.com/ and it'll show anything available. Your backerkit account should also confirm all rewards that you should expect from your reward tier selected.


BACKER PDF VERSION

This is the first version of Underworld Adventures to be released. The design and development teams have done their best to proofread and correct any errors and typos - but some always sneak through. If you catch any typos, incorrect math, visual glitches, and the like, we want to hear about them and correct them before we send the book off to print.


With that in mind, I'd like to introduce the TWB: UNDERWORLD ADVENTURES Feedback Form!


Onyx Path will be launching a special Underworld Adventures Feedback Form, which you will be able to access here:  https://forms.gle/SZHs2zvFoomiDFvi9



Share your feedback directly with the developers using this form and help them guide the book through the next steps of production.

They are aware of the Page XX notations - those are left in to replace for the final version once any changes you've suggested are made, so they can reference the correct page if any shifts in layout result.


Onyx Path will keep errata collection open for the next week. Please submit your feedback as soon as possible so the team can get on to finalizing this file!

After any needed corrections are made (based on your feedback!), they will prepare an updated final PDF version of the book and you will receive a notice from DrivethruRPG that you can re-download your file with the latest version.

You've already made the book a reality with your Crowdfunding support. Now you can make it even better by helping us crowdsource any minor errors and corrections.

SO: Look for your reward email over the next 24 hours, or check your BackerKit page to see your digital reward redemption links. Review the backer PDF and submit any feedback you have, and let's make this book as awesome as possible!
