[QUOTE="Wicht, post: 5389172, member: 221"] I am pleased to announce a new [B]Rite Publishing [/B]project. [SIZE="4"][B] The Ruins Perilous! [/B][/SIZE] As conceived, The Ruins Perilous is a Pathfinder RPG mega-dungeon with old school sensibilities: one level of dungeon for every character level. Each room of the dungeon, when completed, will have its own battle map (for printing or for use with Map Tools), its own creature counter for use on the battle map, and a full write-up. Each room will contain a non-core encounter; meaning a monster you can't just pluck out of the Pathfinder Bestiary. Some of these will be older OGL monsters updated to the Pathfinder ruleset. Some of these will be templated monsters. Some of these will be monsters with character levels and some of these will be completely new monsters. Likewise, expect new traps, treasures, poisons, haunts and dangers as the dungeon unfolds. Each room, as it is released, will be released as a [B]FREE PDF [/B]with an image of the map and the text for the room. When a full level of the Dungeon is completed, it will all be compiled together. Even now the first room of the dungeon is ready to go. There is a catch. Steve Russell, publisher extraordinaire of Rite Publishing, refuses to pay to have the second room of dungeon mapped, illustrated and edited until he recoups his costs from the first room. Thus he is holding it for ransom and the project can't go forward without your help. Any amount you could chip in would be appreciated. If you can only give a single dollar towards the goal, it would be a great service. If you can chip in at least $3 though, we can give you some perks. These perks include: - The exterior image or side view of the room; - The monster token; - The high resolution JPEG of the map (with and without grids), - The PDF of the Map Pack so you can print out your maps at home to scale (in full color or grey scale) Thus, while the general PDF of the room is free, the tokens and print-worthy battle-map are going to be reserved for those who make publishing the rooms possible. If anyone wants to chip in $50 or $100 or $150 dollars for a room, let us know and we can sweeten the pot for you. We have 60 days to hit our first goal, but we would really like to crank out these rooms at least once a week.
