Hello again! Bloodforge is live!
Hello everyone!
Sorry for the hiatus, I've been crazily busy with projects lately. A few projects for Dreamscarred Press, involvement in Flying Pincushion Games' releases, and signing on with Savage Mojo's BEAST of a project: Palace of the Lich Queen.
Today I'd like to talk about my most recent release: Bloodforge.
The goal of this project was to allow players to have unique creatures without the need for mechanic heavy templates that can drastically imbalance a party. In addition to this, Andreas Ronnqvist (of Dreamscarred Press) and I both loved the Bastards and Bloodlines book from 3.x and wanted to bring the idea of rampant crossbreeds to Pathfinder.
Thus came about the idea of Bloodforge. To reach this goal my co-writer, Jade, came up with the feat concept that basically made the book into its goal. On top of that we re-invented the races from Bastards and Bloodlines, completely reworking the IP-heavy creations for various reasons, with a host of new racial traits unlike what you've seen before. We hope that you enjoy the book and that it brings about new ideas and concepts, both for players and for antagonists.
For those who want a quick look before purchasing, give this a gander: Teaser
Now, this is the pre-publish edition of the "teaser" and there have been edits since this was released, but ultimately it embodies the spirit well enough that you should get a proper feel for what the full book ought to contain.
