Project Update: New Update
We really appreciate your patience on this one (and Whispers Upon the Waves). Haunting of the Everwood upon review needed some adjustments made to the adventure and these have impacted the map which is now having those changes made to it too. We want only the best going out to you all and unfortunately this has taken a little bit longer than we'd hoped.
I'm not going to pin any dates on it for this week, but we are aiming to have both the writing and the map where they need to be and back in layout for final tweaks next week sometime.
We're slowing things down here in Penny Dragon land and have no campaigns running while we work at bringing these adventures up to date and onto your gaming tables.
Whispers Upon the Waves is also awaiting a couple of maps, the most complex of which was re-worked and is almost complete. Our cartographer is working on the maps for both of these adventures so upon completion these two will gave a similar timescale for release within a few days of each other.
Truly, thank you for being so patient with us as we get these adventures over the line.
We love what we do and we want to do it right,
Kayleigh, Paddy & Team Penny Dragon

Those of you also waiting for Whispers Upon the Waves, the maps for this adventure are also incoming, due to the detail of the city map that had to be re-done it is looking like the start of next week for this one.
Thanks again for your patience, I'll be back with an update on Friday when this PDF is fulfilled.
As always, thank you for your support on our campaigns!

Project Update: It's Almost Time!
I hope your weekend is treating you well!
A quick update for Haunting of the Everwood - the PDF is ready to go and we are just waiting for the delivery of the Harstland Dungeon map on Monday and it will then be on its way to you.
Thanks for your patience on this one, we're excited to have it and another adventure many of you are waiting for (Whispers Upon the Waves which is always awaiting maps) fulfilled next week.
A glimpse of the first few pages of Haunting...
I'll be back on Monday with the next update,

Project Update: Haunting Layout Update
Hi everyone,
Great news. We have the writing for Haunting of the Everwood back and the project is in layout, so I'll be working hard to get this PDF fulfilled and uploaded this week.
Here is the art for one of the magic items from this adventure. Art by the talented Liam Hammond.
Although we've missed running the next campaign in the Unlock the Vault series, we've greatly appreciated the time to catch up on fulfilling this one and one or two others also heading out this week. Taking this time to bring these up to date will make it all the most exciting when our upcoming project, Sayuri's Chest of Wonders launches in May.
If you'd like to check out the prelaunch for this one you can find it HERE.
Thanks again for your patience, we're looking forward to hitting that upload button and getting your Haunting of the Everwood PDF over to you.
Chat soon,
Kayleigh
Project Update: Update for Haunting of the Everwood
Apologies for the significant delay on your PDF of Haunting of the Everwood. This one was due to go to layout shortly after my last update. I actually have the design set up and and art in layout already, however the writer responsible for this piece was delayed with handover. All being well, this one should be completed and sent your way toward the latter half of next week.
Here's my favourite piece of art from this adventure to whet your appetite.
A heads up - we won't be running any campaigns for the Unlock the Vault series in April. This is allowing us to get caught up with this project in the coming week along with a couple of others through the course of this month.
However, we do have an awesome campaign running for most of May. One that was put forward to the community a number of months ago on a poll and came out as the number one choice.
Sayuri's Chest of Wonders is a silk-road inspired magic item PDF including an adventure, monsters and more. Much of the art and writing has already been completed as this project has been in the works in one way or another for several years.
You can read all about it HERE.
I will be back with a layout update at the start of next week and a date for project fulfilment :)

Hi, it's the first time for me having pledged on Backerkit. I was asking myself if I lost an email, and in that case how can I find that, or if the pdfs are still to be sent? Thanks

Project Update: Haunting Update
Haunting Progress
I hope this week is treating you well.
It is full steam ahead here on various projects. The writing for Haunting of the Everwood is going to layout at the start of next week and the Charms of the Heart NPC & magic item pack is ready to go. I'll be setting up the pledge manager today and getting that smoke test sent out and begin fulfilment on this project over the next 48 hours.
If you're still waiting for the previous adventure in the Unlock the Vault series (Legend of the SIlver Colosseum) this one will be with you in the next 48 hours.
We've got a couple of products all closing out simultaneously and we cannot wait to get them out to you. The long-awaited Whispers Upon the Waves adventure (which turned into a 25,000+ word setting book/adventure...writers, huh?!haha) and Gizcog's Wandering Emporium with his 100 insanely cool magic item collection both heading to our backers in the course of the next 7 days. It is utter madness and we're here for it!
In Other News...
The second of our short, Celtic $1 campaigns kicks off today too - Fomorian Invasion: Silent Outpost.
These run for only 48 hours and fulfil within 4 days of campaign end. We keep them short, sweet and easy to produce all with the aim of still being able to bring the community that $1 adventure they love so much.
If you'd like to check it out, you can find it HERE.
I'll see you in the next update.
Have a great day!

I saw that you recently posed the question about doing a training/class on making our own DND one-shots. I was curious what came of that poll and how can we be involved in that class/training?
Project Update: UNLOCKED - Magic Item Cards
You just unlocked the next stretch goal - Magic Item Cards
So far, we've added the following:
- Aizendore's Vault Lore
- 3x New Magic Items
- 2x New NPCs
- 1x New Monster Stat Block
- 4x Pre-Generated Character Sheets
- 1x d20 Encounter Table (my favourite!!!)
- Magic Item Cards
We have 8 hours left to unlock that elusive Monster Art stretch goal to complement the stat block!!
Can we do it?
Let's share, share, share this campaign with our D&D party and see if we can break that seal 👻
Good luck and happy rolling :)

Project Update: UNLOCKED - Pre-Gen Character Sheets!
You did it - that's the 4x pre-generated character sheets unlocked and the characters from the FIRST instalment (Tomb of the Undead King) will automatically level up to level 5.
Next up on the stretch goals is the d20 encounter table and we love adding these to our adventures.
You Asked, We Added
As you know, we got chatting to people in the community after announcing that we would no longer be in a position to offer our larger adventures such as the Unlock the Vault series for only $1 and many of you said you'd still support one dollar projects even if what was created ended up being smaller.
And so One Shilling One Shots were born.
Honestly, this first one was a bit of an experiment to see how it did. It ran for only 2 days and SO many of you showed up to support it! It was also fulfilled today.
I should also mention that is was intended to be a 4-page one shot...it somehow ended up as a 15-page one shot. This is something we will have to work on further to bring it to a more manageable size for the $1 price point. But we absolutely love it and are delighted with the "Choose Your Own Adventure" approach we've taken.
A number of you have asked if it will be made available as an add-on for this campaign and we're happy to say we've done just that. You can find it at the top of the featured add-ons.
Until the next update,
Kayleigh
Project Update: Funded & 3 Stretch Goals!
Blown Away
I'm not going to lie, I was kind of nervous hitting go on this one. But you've smash through 3 stretch goals already!
So far you've unlocked:
Aizendore's Vault Lore
3 New Magic Items
For those that backed the first of our Unlock the Vault series, we cannot wait to hear what you think of this adventure that will be hitting your inboxes in just a couple of days. This series of adventures are a little different from our previous one shots and proving to be all kinds of fun to tie in with Aizendore's Vault of Tragic Treasure.
Anyway, it is heading for midnight here in Ireland so goodnight from me, and as always, thank you for the support and enthusiasm you bring.
We'll be back with another update in the morning :)
Kayleigh and the team

Anybody else having hesitation trying to recall if they've previously added add-ons on earlier campaigns? Getting confusing.
