over 2 years ago – Mon, Jul 01, 2024 at 08:09:13 AM

Hi all!

Sorry for the late monthly update, we have been hard at work getting through the editing pipeline. Each author of the five gazetteer sections has enhanced them with feedback from each of our sensitivity readers and our development readers and the sections are looking really amazing. 

We have a new playtest - the second set of magic items. 

As always, we love feedback.

Hope you all have a great July!

May Update - First PF2 Playtest!
over 2 years ago – Sun, May 26, 2024 at 03:19:52 PM

Hi everyone! Let's get right to business!

Progress

Not much to report in terms of progress - we are moving steadily along with our updated timeline, getting through editing the content. 

Playtests

I'm excited to be able to share with you our first PF2e playtest for Koboa - the Rhythmatist class. Click here to check it out.

Additionally, we have some more 5e playtests:

Wizard Subclasses

The School of the Lawmage specializes in binding contracts and law magic. They are used by Koboan governments for their complex bureaucracies. 

The School of the Sun and Moon originates from Native mountain Koboan cultures, who were experts in Astronomy. Their understanding of celestial bodies allowed them to harness their powers.

Magic Items Packet 1

11 magic items for you to delight upon.

Art Preview

For today, we have the final illustration from our sets of Pantheons, made by our amazing Art Director Kaithzer.

These are the Elder Serpents, demigods, direct progeny of the deities of the Koboan pantheon.

They are:

• Vav Ghemka, the Forest Father (Green)
• Vav Ñaka, the Air Mother (White)
• Vav Waka, the Water Mother (Blue)
• Maka Malgh, Hunger Incarnate (Red)
• Kika, the Mind Devourer (Purple)
• Jaka, Messenger of the Gods (Brown)

That's it for this month, looking forward to showing you more!

February Update
over 2 years ago – Wed, Feb 21, 2024 at 08:41:51 AM

Hello hello!

Adrián here for your February update. This month, we bring you a three more playtests:

• Cleric subclasses, including the Martyr and Hospitality domains
• Fighter subclasses, including the Baraúma spearfighter and the Blade hand
• Monk subclasses, including the Way of the Lines and the Way of the Spirit Sphere

We welcome feedback via our discord server or a direct e-mail: [email protected]

We are hard at work, with no other major updates regarding our projected releases. Carnival just happened and that kept probably over half the team occupied with the holiday. However, I have a nice preview for you, an illustration showing how Koboans might see the Koboan pantheon of gods.

Here you'll see, left to right:

Deities of Kaboa, the overworld:

• Jul, the zealous sun, the light of truth
• Kamau, the sky jaguar huntress
• Hovchu, the logical, calculating, moon

Deities of Koboa, the material world:

• Jatel, the laughing storm
• Vavkob, mother stone
• Veng, the weaver
• Mangavi, the uniter

Deities of Kiboa, the underworld:

• Hegh, the caretaker of the dead
• Manghom, the imprisoned, raging, earth.

Until next time friends!
