Broadsword Guide to the Negative Energy Plane

Hey friends!

As of this writing, we're about 3 hours from the campaign finishing up. So here's what you can expect:

May 6. The campaign ends today at 12:00 p.m. CST.

You'll be charged immediately after it ends.

~May 20. Backerkit sends us the funds approximately two weeks after the campaign ends.

We'll then start purchasing any goods we couldn't before the campaign ended, namely the majority of the books. They're all printed in the US, so there are no tariff worries for books.

~May 27. The pledge manager opens.

This allows everyone to add some additional products to their campaign, pay for shipping, etc. Unless there's some drastic change in the way goods are shipped between now and then (god, knock on wood) domestic is a flat $10 regardless of what you order. So it's always a good idea to stock up on some goodies since it'll amortize your expenses. International varies, but we try to save costs by sending goods directly from the shipper. Typically, the largest EU countries, Canada, Brazil, and Australia/NZ get by with only $10 shipping.

AGAIN, we live in some turbulent times regarding international shipping and production, so things could change.

~June 10. It's my birthday! Also, Pledge Manager locks and charges.

Two weeks after the pledge manager opens, we start charging for shipping, add-ons, and pre-orders. This isn't the final final date for everyone, but if you want the PDFs, etc., make sure you have your ducks in a row by this date. PDFs will drop shortly after this date.

~June 17. We start shipping.

Once we receive the funds (3-5 business days later), we purchase any shipping goods we need and start shipping goods. We typically ship in waves starting with domestic and ending with international.

~July 8. Broadsword Guide to the Paraelemental Plane of Ooze and Quasielemental Plane of Radiance books go live on Backerkit.

We're continuing our series of books with a two-book deal: Broadsword Guide to the Paraelemental Plane of Ooze and the Broadsword Guide to the Quasielemental Plane of Radiance. These books will continue the story that starts with Negative Energy Plane, taking your characters closer to epic levels.

~October... ish. Broadsword Guide to the Paralemental Plane of Ice goes live on Backerkit.

The culmination of the first part of the planar story wraps up with the Paraelemental Plane of Ice, which will go live in October. 

If you have any questions, feel free to hit me up on Discord or to hit Bree up on email at [email protected]

Thanks again for making all this happen!

Hey all!

Quick poll today! Let me know your thoughts.

Hey all,

I've updated Stretch Goals through $37,000 and will add more as needed. Many of these will serve as lead ins to the sequel book coming in July.

Here's what's on deck:





If we crack $35,000 in the next 24-hours, I'll announce the next few. 

If you haven't backed yet, don't forget that the PDFs we're offering won't be free for pre-orders or via any other method other than subscribing to my Patreon. So make sut you get in quick.

Thanks to everyone who's backed! The book is HUGE with already 200+ pages and a few more things I have to adjust. The PDF will come out right after the Pledge Manager opens and locks.

Hey friends,

I just tossed up the "prototype" version of the next one-shot that's being included in Negative Energy Plane. This one is called Crypt Thing Crypt and it's built for 5th-level characters. It's a classic puzzle/tournament dungeon featuring a classic baddie, the Crypt Thing.

You can use the sample link on the front page.

So long as we hit $30,000, I'll add this 26 page adventure to the main book. Otherwise, it'll remain in digital or sold separately.

For those who haven't backed yet, we've got less than 72 hours before this campaign ends! So back now!

Hey friends!

Just a little more than 7 days until this campaign wraps up. Thanks for everyone who supported!

For those of you still on the fence, here's an incentive:



We've got a pretty good one on the way that I think you'll all really enjoy. It features some classic monsters from D&D's history updated for 5e and placed into a death trap style a la the old tournament modules from 1st and 2nd edition.

Make sure to back and share so we can get hit these goals and finish strong!
