Hello Lightbringers,

The chapter we shared on Wednesday was probably one of my favorites so far. So many cool ideas and fun things to add to your game in there, stuff that could totally give you different flavors in your game. I love it.

And we've got another awsome chapter today! We're digging into the geography and secrets of the setting a bit more today. But before we do that, another exciting opportunity for you today...

Onyx Path have an AMA taking place at 12 noon EST over on r/theonyxpath today! The World Below will be a focus because of our current crowdfunding campaign for Buried Treasures - the Player's and Storyguide's Handbooks for The World Below.  They'll be free to answer questions about any of their games, though,  so please add it to your schedule and come join in at noon!

Over the course of this campaign, backers will receive the entire current draft manuscript for The World Below: Delver's Guide and The World Below: Secrets of Kalm and Kaos, but it's not going to come to you all in one go. The previews will come out in mangeable sections throughout the campaign. This helps me seem interesting over these 30 days, but it's more about guiding the conversation and helping steer feedback for the developers.

Because they want your feedback! These manuscript previews are of the current draft manuscript – the document in its latest, approved form. This may not be the final form after editing and any additional development, but you can consider it about 95% finished, so keep that in mind.

In fact, you can help guide the team through the next stages of development by providing feedback on these manuscript previews! The Onyx Path team has set up a special Feedback Form just for campaign backers for this very purpose: <TWB Buried Treasures Feedback Form>

You can use this Feedback Form to shrea your thoughts directly with the World Below developers and help guide them through the next rounds of development and editing.

We know times are hard these days, particularly with rising costs and economic uncertainty, so we’ve designed this crowdfunder to be as painless as possible. We offer a wide variety of digital options for backing, as well as leveraging print-on-demand technology to have physical products printed as close to you as possible to cut down shipping and reduce tariff concerns - and avoid some of the manufacturing delays that have delayed other campaigns.

Remember, thanks to BackerKit sorcery, these download links are visible to Backers only - you must be logged in and reading this on the website to have access to the manuscript preview links. So, if you're reading this via e-mail, click that "Reply to this Update" or "Learn More" button on the bottom and I'll see you below this title treatment.
