Latest Updates from Our Project:

💀 Oath of Endings Paladin Needs Your Vote + ZineQuest News! 🐱 🔑 💰
about 1 year ago – Mon, Feb 03, 2025 at 09:52:13 AM

Beloved Acolytes,

We’ve got some thrilling progress to share! The writing and visual production of Tome of Hags is moving forward at great speed. Our friend TuDo is hard at work bringing another new subclass to life: The Oath of Endings Paladin. But we need your help! We have two draft designs for this mysterious and awe-inspiring subclass, and we’d love your input. 

"All things must die - no one excepted."

Cast your vote in the comments, and let us know which draft you think best fits this unique path. The voting deadline is Friday, February 7—don’t miss it!

🛡️ Tariffs and Production

A quick note on tariffs: Recent changes issued by the U.S. government regarding imports from China, Canada, and Mexico had us concerned, but there’s good news. Since our plan is to print on demand via DriveThruRPG, these new rules shouldn’t have a significant impact on production or delivery costs. We’ll keep you updated as things progress!

❤️ ZineQuest: Bibi’s Stolen Hearts Club

If you’ve been enjoying our work, don’t forget to check out our Tiny Quest Team’s new 1 EUR campaign: Bibi’s Stolen Hearts Club, launching next week for ZineQuest!

This adventure will feature 100 human-made Thieves Guild quests, along with a new romanceable NPC, Bibi Heartstealer—full of charm, cunning, and intrigue. It's a project crafted with the same love and care you’ve come to expect from us. Follow the project now to grab those early bird rewards before they disappear!

Thank you again for your unwavering support. We’re so excited to share even more magic with you soon!

Wind guide you,
🖤 Quill & The Big Empty Blue Team

🐉 Hedge Nagas Are Here! Plus, Your Vote for the Ritualist Art! 🎨
about 1 year ago – Sun, Jan 19, 2025 at 08:46:58 AM

Beloved Acolytes,

The coven convenes once more to share thrilling updates from our enchanted walking hut!

✍️ Writing Progress

The first draft of the species, subspecies, subclasses, and hags is nearly complete! The creative cauldron is bubbling over, and we can’t wait to bring these magical elements to life for your campaigns.

🐍 A Sneak Peek: The Hedge Naga

New original art is rolling in, and we’re thrilled to unveil a preview of one of the fresh, playable species in the manual: the Hedge Naga!

Hedge Naga Draft by Spikulec

As a DM and player, I’ve always felt that nagas haven’t received the love (and species mechanics) they deserve. So, we’ve reimagined them as a species that’s not just compelling in lore but also fun and playable for everyone. We’re beyond excited to hear your thoughts about this unique addition to the world.

🎨Sorcerer Ritualist Art: We Need Your Feedback!

But wait, there’s more! Our team is also working on the art for one of our subclasses: the Sorcerer Ritualist. And here’s where you come in!

We have two drafts ready for your discerning eyes: Draft A and Draft B. Which one sparks your imagination? Let us know your preference in the comments section—we’d love to hear your thoughts!

Sorcerer Ritualist by TuDo

🖤 Thank You, Acolytes!

Your love and support continue to fuel our passion for this project. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being the incredible community that you are. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue crafting a world of magic and wonder for your adventures!

Wind guide you,
Quill & The Satzija’s Tome of Hags Coven 🖤✨

🌒New Species Revealed, Potions Brewing, and a Tiny Quest Tease!🌘
about 1 year ago – Mon, Jan 13, 2025 at 02:18:19 PM

Beloved Acolytes, 

The coven gathers once again to share some enchanted tidings! We hope you’ve had a delightful holiday season and that our pre-published resources brought a little extra magic to your celebrations. Your feedback has been nothing short of spellbinding, and we’re thrilled to hear so many of you are diving into the materials already!

But fear not if you're missing a piece of our arcane puzzle—we’ve got you covered. Here’s how to claim your pre-published treasures:

  1. Check Your Kickstarter Inbox – That’s where you'll find the link to the resources.
  2. Focus on the Pre-Published Resources – Manuals, maps, STLs, and other Tome of Hags deliverables will arrive as planned. The same applies to Big Empty Blue #2. The links sent so far contain only pre-published content, as we are still diligently crafting the rest.
  3. Reach Out to Us Directly – If steps 1 and 2 don’t resolve things, summon us with a DM, and we’ll ensure your missing resource is delivered faster than a witch on a broomstick!

✨ Let’s Talk Progress!

We’re thrilled to share that the visuals for our brand-new races are coming along beautifully. Behold, a sneak peek at one of the Crones' latest creations: The Kitin

“I am no killer, stranger. I am simply a weaver of beauty, an arbiter of perfection, and a blade that cut the unworthy."

The Kitin are an insectoid species sculpted by the hag goddess Mother Spinner, embodying a paradox of exquisite beauty and ruthless cruelty. Revered as divine emissaries of perfection, Kitin society is built on a rigid matriarchal hierarchy where elegance is the ultimate measure of worth. Within their hives, they maintain an intricate balance of grace, cunning, and raw power, all in service to the ideals of their creator.

What do you think about this new species reveal? Let us know in the comments!

Meanwhile, the writing for species, subclasses, items, and potions is nearly complete. On the topic of potions—have you pitched your idea yet? There’s still time to join the Discord coven and suggest a concept for this little beauty right here...

Content warning - gore!

Try the refreshing taste of Boggart Head moonshine! TM

But wait, there’s more! Soon, we’ll open up the community Spell Creation, so if you’re brimming with arcane inspiration, make sure you’re part of the conversation. Your creative energy makes this project truly magical, and we can’t wait to see what you conjure next!

💌 A Little Love from Our Tiny Quests Team

If you’re enjoying the coven’s creations so far, you might also love what our Tiny Quests team is brewing for ZineQuest: Bibi’s Stolen Hearts Club! This 1€ digital campaign will feature 100 thieves' guild quests and introduce the charmingly roguish NPC, Bibi the Monk, who might just steal more than your gold. 

While this isn’t a Tome of Hags team project, it shares the same setting and spirit, and we’d be over the moon if you followed along and supported this mischievous little side quest.

🌟 Thank You, Always

From the bottom of our cauldron, thank you for being the most incredible backers. Your support, enthusiasm, and creativity fuel this project, and we couldn’t do it without you. 

Stay tuned for more updates soon—and as always, keep your spells sharp and your coven close!

With love and mischief,
🖤 Quill and the Big Empty Blue Coven

Beloved Acolytes,

From Quill, Satzija, and the whole team, a huge happy holiday cheer to you all! 🎄✨

As promised, we’ve DM’d you all the pre-published resources tied to your pledge and add-ons for Satzija’s Tome of Hags!

🔮 If you pledged for multiple add-ons, brace yourself—you’ll be getting a LOT of DMs (one per resource). This is the quickest way for us to get everything to you, and we appreciate your patience and understanding!

📂 Important:

  • No matter your pledge level, make sure to open and save your pledge folder. That is going to be the folder where all your digital goodies will land, plus Mr. Purrson’s Secret Stash is waiting for you!
  • If you paid through PayPal and haven’t received your goodies by tomorrow, send us a message with your list of resources, and we’ll send them over immediately!

Important note: These pre-published resources are existing materials that are ready to share. New content—like the manual, STLs, and other stretch goals—will be delivered according to the original project timeline.

We hope these treasures inspire your next session and bring warmth to your DnD table this holiday season.

Thank you for being part of this magical journey. More book updates are coming your way soon!

Coming Soon - ZAMANORA: Ballad of the Witch

After their first successful Kickstarter for EXORDIUM: Origins of Mythos, our friends over at the Eren Chronicles are running a new campaign for a project inspired by the grim, cautionary tales of Slavic and Balkan folklore!

ZAMANORA: Ballad of the Witch introduces heaps of new content. Immersive mechanics, more than 20 character options, over 65 monsters, spells, curses, ceremonies, folkloric relics and adventure locales sprung from the realm of myth are only a part of what this rustic setting has to offer. Moreover, everything is going to be compatible with a number of different TTRPG systems: namely D&D 5e, D&D 2024 and the Legend in the Mist RPG!

The pre-launch page is up, so you can check out the project in more detail and get notified when it launches!

🎉 We Did It! Satzija’s Tome of Hags Is 1579% Funded—Thank You (and Next Steps)! 💜
over 1 year ago – Sat, Dec 14, 2024 at 12:27:10 PM

Beloved Acolytes,

We did it! This is absolutely AMAZING! Thanks to your incredible support, Satzija’s Tome of Hags has officially ended its campaign at a whopping 1579% funded!

This project has been a dream for so long, and now it’s going to become a reality. We can’t thank you enough for believing in us, sharing your excitement, and helping bring this magical manual to life. You’re truly incredible! 💙

A Special Celebration Gift: The Monk Subclass Is In!🧘✨

"Shattered wizard staffs forge the finest bo, fellow acolyte."

You’ve helped us achieve so much, and as a thank-you, we’re including the Monk Subclass: Way of the Hexbreaker in the manual!

This was a much-discussed stretch goal, and while we didn’t quite reach the funding level for it, we couldn’t resist adding it. We’re hopeful that late pledges will help cover the additional costs to make this possible. If you’d like to help or know someone who missed the campaign, spreading the word would mean the world to us!

So Much to Celebrate!

This campaign wasn’t just about funding a book; it was about a community coming together to create something extraordinary. You are more than backers—you’re friends, creatives, and the lifeblood of this project. Every time you shared the campaign, joined discussions on Discord, or voted for stretch goals, you shaped the future of Satzija’s Tome of Hags.

Here’s what your incredible support has unlocked:

  • 17 stretch goals, including Baba Yaga’s Hut, Wicked Wizard Familiars, and now the Hexbreaker Monk.
  • A manual filled with 10 subclasses, 10 species, 28 subspecies, and over 100 monsters, all dripping with coven lore and dark magic.
  • A campaign that’s already bigger and richer than we dreamed—this manual will far exceed 200 pages of incredible content!

You turned our dream into something beyond our wildest imagination. Knowing that this project resonated with you makes every late-night brainstorm, every draft revision, and every creative challenge worth it.

What’s Next?

We know you’re eager to see what comes next, so here’s the plan:

  • The Writing: The manuscript is 75% complete, and Corzanth (game dev lead) and I will finish the remaining sections over the next few weeks. Once the draft is complete, we’ll hand it over to our editor friends, who will ensure the mechanics and narrative shine. In the meanwhile, make sure to join our Discord for the Community Build Spells & Potions! Discussions are going to start very soon!
  • The Art: The artistic magic has already begun! Our amazing visual team—featuring Spikulec, Natasja van Gestel, Eve, and Cat—is hard at work. Cat (our visual creative lead) will also oversee maps, page layouts, and a few special commissions. A handful of new guest artists have joined the project, and we can’t wait to reveal their contributions!
  • Tiny Quests: While the manual's production continues, I’ll oversee the creation process and work on a series of a few 1€ Tiny Quests for the Kickstarter community. Don’t worry—a separate team will handle these small campaigns, so nothing will delay the manual’s production.

When Will You Get Your Goodies?

We’ve got a clear timeline for fulfillment:

  • Kickstarter Surveys: As soon as everyone's payment is confirmed, we’ll send out the first survey (through Kickstarter). This will help us gather important details for custom commissions and start preparing your digital goodies. Please ensure your payment info is up to date, and let us know if you need help. A second survey (through Backerkit) will follow when the books are ready for production and delivery.
  • Pre-Published Digital Goodies: All pre-published digital rewards will be sent via Kickstarter DM by December 24th—a little holiday magic just for you! 🎁
  • The Manual & Related Content: The full manual, maps, tokens, and VTT content will be sent as soon as they’re ready, with a hard deadline of October 31st, 2025. We’re committed to delivering on time while maintaining the exceptional quality you deserve.

A Final Request

We’re so close to the finish line, but your continued support can help make this project even better. Late pledges can help us go the extra mile—whether it’s funding additional content like the Hexbreaker Monk or adding polish to our production. If you know someone who missed the campaign, now is the perfect time to invite them to join our coven. Together, we can make Satzija’s Tome of Hags the ultimate DnD resource of the year.

Thank You for Everything!

This campaign has been a wild, wonderful ride, and it wouldn’t have been possible without you. Your support, encouragement, and excitement mean the world to us. Every step of this journey has been enriched by your enthusiasm, your creativity, and your belief in what we’re building.

Thank you for being part of this adventure. We’ll keep you updated every step of the way as we bring this project to life. You are the magic that makes this possible, and we’re so grateful to have you in our coven. 💜

With endless gratitude and witchy love,
Quill & The Satzija’s Tome of Hags Team 🖤✨
