Hi all,

Happy news that we've finally finished work on the Foundry VTT module for Mediterranean Monsters 5E and it's been uploaded to their system! We'll let you know once it's live so any backers who want to get the bestiary for our latest VTT option can grab it! 

For those interested in Pathfinder Second Edition, we're also well along with Foundry module for Mediterranean Monsters PF2, so we look forward to getting that up and ready for you too! 

For anyone who doesn't have it yet but would like to order the VTT module (or any of the bonus items like Epic Treasures, Mythic Treasures, and Legendary Loot Cards), you can do so as part of our current lightning-round Greek Mythology for 5E, PF1, and PF2 project on Backerkit right now!

This is a super-short 8-day project, so hop on over! 

More shipments heading out with Alien Bestiary! Plus Mediterranean Monsters PF1 finished and new Backerkit project!

Hi all,

We had been waiting for our Alien Bestiary 5E books to arrive, as a fair number of our backers on this project added that book to their collection of killer creatures. They finally came in at the end of last week, and after getting things processed in and set up we've gotten dozens of boxes up and out the door and headed your way! The new books are beautiful and we hope you love your big boxes of bestiaries when they arrive! 

We also are delighted to report that final proofing is complete on Mediterranean Monsters PF1, and that PDF as well as the Pathfinder Second Edition version are now available for folks who enjoy those systems! Neither has gone out to the public yet, as we recently finished our A Tale of Two Seas project, where we offered people PF1 and PF2 versions of Mediterranean Monsters as well as combining it with creatures of the Caribbean and Central and South America with our Boricubos campaign setting and Latin American Monsters bestiaries for all three systems.

That said, the response was not as strong as we had seen with PF1/PF2 versions of our other bestiaries like Asian Monsters, Mythos Monsters, and Mechanical Monsters, and I wondered whether combining it with the Caribbean might have made the project confusing for folks. To that end, we are trying an experiment with the Backerkit crowdfunding platform. 

We have been working on a companion book to go along with Mediterranean Monsters with Mediterranean Races, which is exactly what it sounds like: A collection of delightful new Pathfinder 1E race options from Margherita Tramontano, including over 100 new racial traits, feats, favored class bonuses, spells, and so much more. Some races get just a few new ability options, while some like the lovely melia, scaled spartoi, and mysterious atlantean get full race writeups and mechanics. 

We are launching a short followup campaign on Backerkit with a specific focus on Greek mythology as the core of it, since the plurality of monsters in the bestiary and the majority of race options in the new Mediterranean Races book all are rooted there, and obviously the 5E Mother of Monsters Adventure Path is all-in on Ancient Greece, and we'll see if that ends up feeling like a more appealing entry point for gaming fans out there. We also will have polls attached to the project to see what kinds of monsters people would like to see next from us!

As existing backers of Mediterranean Monsters, you could just swing by the campaign and pick up the new Mediterranean Races book (PF1 only for now, as most of our PF2 folks are busily working on another project and a lot of this material just wouldn't apply for 5E) and call it day. We hope you'll check it out and help spread the word on this new crowdfunding platform and see how it goes! Here's the link to share!
