Introducing the Path of Penitence (Patreon)
Content
Greetings!
After the teaser last week, we’re really pleased to be sharing the reveal trailer for our RPG Revamp: The Path of Penitence
New System.
The Path of Penitence is Bestiarum’s official 5E campaign system! Just around the corner, we will be releasing an updated version of the two starting adventures in the Welcome Pack: Burial Isle and Rise of the Jailer. These adventures have been revised with new visuals, convenient formatting, balance updates, and brand-new sections introducing Bestiarum’s official campaign system.
New Story.
The new Path of Penitence campaign system roots the players in the story of Doaden itself. Each player takes on the role of a Penitent. Convicted of a heinous crime (whether guilty or not!), they are forced to join the ranks of the Penitent Crusade. For each adventure, the party will be deployed by their handler, Vozruk the Redeemer, on the most harrowing, dangerous, and downright suicidal missions around the realm, to fight back the tides of evil or die trying!
New Focus.
The new campaign system is a unique way to experience all the grimdark horrors of Doaden in a persistent and enduring campaign. Along with this new system, our future modules and supplements will be designed with a focus on convenience, utility, and awesomeness! Here are a few of the main changes headed your way:
Modular Encounters: we will be focusing on designing conveniently packaged encounters that are easily to adapted to your table. No matter if you are looking to run a one-shot, to add a few horrific encounters to your own homebrew campaign, or to run Bestiarum’s official system, this new system will make it convenient for you to do so!
Epic Boss Battles: with so many amazing BIG models coming from our design team, our RPG team will be focusing on making boss encounters shine. Boss encounter packs will bring you fresh, dynamic, and exciting mechanics!
Campaign Support: the starting adventures provide the basic rules for running Bestiarum’s official “Path of Penitence” campaign. But it doesn’t end here! Over the coming months we will be releasing supplementary materials to support the campaign system, such as campfire companions, faction rank-up & rewards, crafting & artifacts, class options, and more!
Some of you may have noticed these changes already coming into effect in this May’s Adventure The Braying Call; the hunt for the dread Bies, and the subsequent epic standoff with Baphomet herself give you a taste of what’s coming. You can also head over to our website to pick up the new and improved Jailer Boss Pack pdf!
Vozruk the Redeemer
Our upcoming 3-Month Loyalty Reward, Vozruk is someone you'll become very familiar with in an official Path of Penitence Campaign, he serves as your party's Redeemer, doling out all manner of deadly missions!
Vozruk will be supported for 32mm, 75mm and Bust scale, we can't wait to share the full reveal with you all, he's a stunning character model!
We thank you all for the passion and excitement you have shared with us on Patreon, Tribes, and Discord! We hope you will join us on the next stages of our adventures and continue to enjoy them as much as we love producing them for you! But if you haven’t jumped on this grimdark bandwagon yet, now is the perfect time to get started!
