And really, this is all still in the thinking/planning stage, it will take a lot more research before I am to the stage of actually starting one.
However, asking people what they would want from such a product seems like the place to start. So, let me tell you what I am thinking of get your feedback and suggestions.
What I am thinking of is an illustrated PDF, about 120 pages, broken down (roughly) as follows:
- Introduction to and history of the Sea of Stars, 12 pages
- New and adapted species with support material, 24 pages
- Magic items, spells and such, 24 pages
- New Monsters, 20 pages
- The world and places to visit, 20 pages
- GM Advice and adventure seeds, 20 pages
Most of this, apart from the GM advice, I already have written just not organized into a form ready for publication but then it will need to be properly vetted and edited, art commissioned and proper layout make it readable and interesting.
What would people want to see more of? Less of (down to none at all)? The initial mechanics would be for Pathfinder but I would be happy to include a FATE adaption as a stretch goal.
Just tossing around ideas right now but I would love to hear back from you about what you would like to see in such a kickstarter and what would make you more likely to participate in one for the Sea of Stars. Thank you in advance.
