Red Spire Press anounces open call for Dark Legacies Supplement & Adventure Support

[Red Spire Press]

Red Spire Press is looking for publishers (both print and PDF) to support its Dark Legacies product with supplements and adventures. Dark Legacies is a unique and exciting d20 dark fantasy campaign setting and low-magic ruleset. The Dark Legacies Player's Guide is currently available and the Campaign Guide, which completes the core rules, is out this August.

We are now accepting proposals, which should contain the following information:

• Background on your company and existing products.
• A sample product.
• A 2 to 5 page synopsis of the product concept, including themes, plot, new rules, and "why it's cool."
• Suggested MSRP, page count, and release date.

Selected companies will receive a pre-release copy of the Dark Legacies Campaign Guide and a limited per-product license, as follows:

• The supplement may be sold for two years, with extensions given at Red Spire Press's option.
• Red Spire Press receives a royalty equal to 10% of MSRP for all PDF products and 5% of MSRP for all print products.
• You may use the logo, trade dress, and product identity from both the Player's Guide and Campaign Guide in your product, but all closed material must remain closed.
• Red Spire Press has final approval over the product before it is released for sale.

An official contract will be signed by the involved parties on acceptance. Proposals should be sent to the email address on our contact page.

Cheers.

Hmm

I am interested but I don't have access to the campaign setting or anyway to actually buy it considering I don't own a credit card.

Regardless, I will post this news to the front page.

Thanks. Was going to get around to that. Regarding the Player's Guide, the lack of a credit card would pose a problem for online purchasing. It is distributed through the normal channels though, so you should be able to find it at your FLGS. Drop me a line if you can't get ahold of it and we'll sort something out.

Yuval, since this seems somewhat related, what's your preferred method of handling freelancer -- non-publisher -- inquiries? In light of this new proposed arrangement, do you even desire to work with individual freelancers?

Kind regards,

Hi Don. We didn't seek freelancers while writing the Dark Legacies core rules (Player's Guide & Campaign Guide) because there were a lot of deeply connected themes and ideas that needed to be written exactly as envisioned, for the most part by one person (me). But now that Dark Legacies has come of proper age, I'm ready to let others in on the fun, hence this anouncement. That also means that I'd be happy to hear from freelancers. The best way to get on the inside is to contribute to the forums by writing an adventure weekly, some house rules, or what have you. And of course, you can always drop me an email with some sample material. There are some big plans for the future so we're going to be needing the help. Cheers.
