The Path Forward! (Patreon)

A kind greeting to my awesome patrons, followers, and random internet people. This is Derek Ruiz. The purpose of this message is to let you know of some things we are planning regarding the path forward for our Elven Tower Patreon page. First of all, thank you all for your support. I cannot put into words my gratefulness to all of you. Even those who have unsubscribed for one reason or another, I thank you for the support for the time you were able/willing to do it. Thanks!

For the last few months, starting in February 2021, we have created tons of cool map locations and large-format adventures. We have published three of them per month and I am satisfied with the result. That said, there have been some setbacks and things we lost by doing this commitment. Here are some of the things we have not been doing lately:

• The monthly Dungeon Vault Magazine
• One-Page Dungeons
• Brochure Dungeons
• Asset Packs

I have tried to make it work one way or another but I simply don't have enough time to do everything. The one that I regret the most is the monthly compilation. I loved posting that in the wild. So we have decided to bring back Dungeon Vault Magazine this month with issue 15th. It shall be published during the first week of the next month. This means that our in-progress adventure "The Fabled Sword" is the last one in that large format, at least for a while. And we will return to producing smaller-scale content for each of our cartography creations.

Navigating the Page

People always mention how inaccessible Patreon's wall is for consulting our content hosted here. I agree that the UI is not ideal so that's why I posted the compilation posts. But that is not a great replacement either. So we have been working on a compiled Google Sheet document that shall work as an index for ALL of our creations. They are compiled by number but also include recommended level and some tags for the overall theme. It took us weeks to compile and organize the absurd amount of links to Patreon and other storefronts. Hopefully, it will make searching for content easier.

You can find the document here. 

Once again, thank you for your support. I look forward to the revival of Dungeon Vault Magazine. We're also planning on having guest writers add more stuff to it but we are still working out how that'd work.  Derek Ruiz.
