🧿 The College of the Curseweaver Needs Your Eye for Detail!

– Tue, Mar 04, 2025 at 06:02:28 AM
🔮 Beloved Acolytes,
Behold! A new illustration needs your feedback!
The time has come for your keen eye 🧿🧿 to shape our next incredible illustration for Tome of Hags! This time, we're unveiling the College of the Curseweaver Bard, the ultimate master of hexes and curses! 🎭✨
To create the visuals of this new subclass, we drew inspiration from Mediterranean folklore—from the watchful blue eye beads covering her garments to makeup echoing the Eye of Horus. And, of course, no curse-wielding jester would be complete without the sign of the horns, an ancient gesture meant to ward off (or channel) misfortune.
But we need your input! Which pose, clothing, and expression best captures the spirit of this cunning, spellbinding trickster?
Let us know your thoughts in the comments! 🖌️🧿
PS: only three days to back Bibi's Stolen Hearts Club. We are less than $100 away from unlocking a new Rogue subclass - Heartrenderer!
For half a century, a blood pact between the local vampire coven and the roaming werewolf pack has kept the people in Saltby village safe. However, the pact must be renewed every seventh year. This is a dangerous time, and the fragile alliance is in peril when the mayor’s daughter is suddenly missing! You must unravel the mystery before dawn to save the alliance. Should you fail, lovers will turn enemies, and more blood will be spilt under the full moon. A night filled with mysteries, intrigues, and dark romance awaits you at Wightcliff Castle.
Until Death Do Us Part is a Gothic romance & mystery adventure inspired by Bram Stoker, the author of Dracula, for the world’s largest roleplaying game (5e).
You’ll get the following: ➛ A Gothic romance & mystery adventure inspired by Bram Stoker! ➛ The compendium Creatures of the Night, featuring all unlocked stretch goals and more ➛ Six premade characters so that you can start the game straight away ➛ Gorgeous character sheets with illustrations with a dark romance theme designed by Bookwyrmling ➛ Free VTT pack with tokens, maps, and digital handouts for online gaming

🔮 Beloved Acolytes,
The Coven has spoken! The votes are in, and the winning pose for the Shark Hag is… Option A! 🦈✨ Our artist is already hard at work finalizing the piece, and we can’t wait to share the finished version with you soon!
In the meantime, how about a sneak peek at the Oath of Endings Paladin, brought to life thanks to your votes?
Behold!
Thanks to you, this fearsome, wickedly dark knight is everything we envisioned—sleek, relentless, and stealthy as hell!
We know how frustrating it is when a project delivers gorgeous cover art but underwhelming visual content overall—we’ve been there as backers and collectors ourselves. That’s why we’re committed to making Tome of Hags a feast for your eyes, from cover to cover. No shortcuts. No compromises. Just top-tier art and design, worthy of the eerie majesty of hags.
And speaking of amazing art, feast your eyes on this early draft of our new playable species—the raxisi!
Initially designed by our incredibly talented lead artist, Cat, and now redeveloped by our amazing friend Spikulec, these small hag-made "monstrosities" (a DnD term, not mine—lol) are filled with intelligence, charm, and potential. We can't wait to share more details soon!
📜 Final Call for Surveys!
If you haven’t completed your Kickstarter survey, now’s the time! Please check your inbox and submit your answers ASAP, especially if your pledge includes a commission, spell, or item adoption. The sooner we have your details, the sooner we can bring your vision to life!
Thank you again for your incredible support and enthusiasm. You make this journey magical!

🖌️ Art Update: Meet the Shepherd of Salt Hag
But this is not all! We have a new art poll for you!
This time, it’s not a subclass but one of our new hags—the Shepherd of Salt (or, as some call her, the shark-hag... or granny jaws if you prefer 🦈).
This terrifyingly magnificent sea hag has adapted to dwell in irradiated seas, her body mutating into something… better (cuz sharks are better than regular fishies; prove me wrong). But now we need your help!
Which pose do you prefer—Pose A or Pose B?
Cast your vote in the comments and help us shape the visual legacy of this aquatic queen!
Forget the boring, overused guild quests of old—Bibi’s Stolen Hearts Club delivers unique NPCs and 100 never-before-seen, human-made quests! From burglary, sweeps, and rackets to full-blown heists, we’ve packed this 1 Euro adventure with everything you need to breathe new life into your campaigns.
But that’s not all! Meet Bibi Heartstealer, our signature romanceable NPC. She’s fully fleshed out with motivations, likes, dislikes, romance stages, and all the high-quality storytelling you’ve come to expect from Quill’s Tiny Quests. 💎✨
Thank you again for being part of this journey. Keep your eyes on the horizon for more updates soon!
