The legendary blade Caledfwlch, Sword of Stone, has been unlocked for backers of all tiers!
The Welsh precursor to Excalibur, Caledfwlch {caled-vulch} has already played an important role in the world of Avallen as a key relic in the “Against the Faerie Queene” campaign book. Now, you’ll uncover the full history and prowess of this famed weapon and receive additional quest hooks worthy of this brilliant blade!
Now we set our sights on our next stretch goal: Druidic Caste origins and feats for all five Vallic clans!
We’ve also revealed our £50k Strech Goal: The Buggane {boo-GAIN}, a mindless predator from Manx folklore that makes its territory amongst the perilous waterways of Avallen.
The Home Stretch (and Happy Thanksgiving)!
With only 6 days left in the campaign, we once again give heartfelt “thank you” to all of you, our backers, and a Happy Thanksgiving to all of our American backers! We are certainly thankful for all of your support for this project, and hope you have a fun and safe holiday with family and friends!
Of course, after you’ve had your fill of turkey and are in need of a little bit of “you time”, visit us over the weekend for more updates as we prepare to finish this campaign strong!
Have a great week, courtesy of the Adder Stone Games Team!

Beware the Baobhan Sith...
We've just unlocked a bonus monster for all backers into our already packed folkloric bestiary! The Baobhan Sith {bao-vhan shee}, a beguiling temptress of Scottish legend. Complete with tiered lore for her habits, haunts, and histories, you'll have your players wondering why they ever leave town at night...
Next in our stretch goal sights is a legendary artifact! The precursor to Arthur's Excalibur, the mythical flaming sword of the stone: Caledfwlch {caled-vulch}.
AND we've now revealed our £45k stretch goal is Druidic Caste origins and feats for all five clans! This would give Avallen fifteen character origins to choose from amongst five clans, each with three backgrounds: Humble, Warrior, and Druidic.
Tavern Talk Interview
In other news, we had a wonderful chat with Tabletop Misfits about Kurt and mine's RPG origins and our love of folklore on the Tavern Talk podcast! Check that out here:
Let's Keep Our Clan Growing!
It's always great help if you share what we have to offer with other communities you are in. Tell someone you know about A Faeseeker's Guide to Avallen, and let's see if we can make this project even bigger!
I'm excited to see what else is to come next week! Stay tuned for more updates as we hit more stretch goals, get new art in, and continue to say "thank you" for all of your support!

Greetings, Faeseekers!
We have just two weeks left of our campaign, and we have some exciting updates to share!
New Stretch Goals!
We've updated our stretch goals!!! We decided to split our stretch goal packages into individual content to provide more details on what's unlocking and at more frequent intervals!
Not only that, you have all charged through the £30,000 stretch goal BEFORE we could even announce it, unlocking the Warrior Caste Origins and Origin Feats for all clans, for ALL BACKERS!
Our next stretch goal is approaching soon: adding the fearsome Baobhan Sith of Scottish folklore to our bestiary!
Streams
If you haven't already, check out Cantrip Media's fantastic review of our Quickstart PDF!
Also, Kurt and I had a great interview with Mildra the Monk yesterday on his Youtube channel:

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Twitch stream yesterday! It was a great time and we will continue to make our hag-haunted Pen Draig mines adventure site on stream with your help next Thursday! The VOD will be up on youtube early next week.
Thank you!
And a big thank you to everyone that's supported us so far! Getting us funded already with our biggest funding goal for an Avallen book so far is a big deal. It means a lot, and we're excited for everything to come!
