Torrents of the Spellhoarder and Crown of the Oathbreaker
Created by Elderbrain.com
Elderbrain’s Torrents of the Spellhoarder is a 300-page D&D 5e adventure module and campaign setting with loads of player options, primarily based on survey replies from members of the Elderbrain community. The high-level adventure can be played as the sequel to the Crown of the Oathbreaker campaign or as a standalone adventure. It features scores of new monsters, encounter maps, subclasses, feats, spells, and magic items.
The seafaring and exploration sandbox adventure incorporates over twenty dungeon maps and a regional map with 100 locations. The adventure takes 15th-level characters on an exploration journey through the treacherous waters of the Calhay Sea around the famed draconic Isles of Xantharos and above the lost underwater Kingdom of A'rvanshy.
The book is based on the feedback of hundreds of D&D fans whose votes on their preferences gave the backbone of the adventure and the campaign setting. The community continuously influences the fine details of the story and the setting through Elderbrain’s Discord server. Torrents of the Spellhoarder also includes 100 NPCs, their locations, and portraits based on the actual photos of members of the Elderbrain community.

We beseech the gods of the ocean for calm waters and a swift voyage as the treasures we have assembled make their way to distant shores! Here's the latest update on our progress and what you can expect in the coming weeks.
Ships ahoy: Everything has been neatly packagedfor the long journey to our warehouses in New Jersey. The estimated time of arrival, not accounting for pirates, forces of nature (or krakens of the deep) is April 25th.
The final sending: Once the loot arrives at our trusted fulfillment center, it will be mere days before your packages are dispatched to your abodes! We really hope you will have your beautiful products on hand before the month of April concludes.
This scheduling is for residents of the US and Canada. Worldwide fulfillment to every other location not in North America will commence in the coming weeks from our center in Europe.
Thank you for being an integral part of this journey. The next update will signal the time when our ship drops anchor and the packages start flying out from our warehouse.

The Voyage to Completion: With the DM Screens in hand, we will embark on the task of packing everything into neat pallets. This process, expected to span no longer than 2 weeks, is crucial for ensuring that your treasures are well-protected for their voyage to our fulfillment center.
The Journey Ahead: The freight's journey to the fulfillment center is expected to take 5-6 weeks. Like a ship braving the high seas, this phase is pivotal for bringing our collective adventure to its exciting conclusion.
Diving into Fulfillment: Upon arrival at the fulfillment center, we will immediately start the fulfillment process, ensuring no time is lost in delivering the fruits of our shared adventure to your doorstep in April.
We understand the anticipation that builds with such updates and want to assure you that every step is taken with the utmost care and precision to ensure the quality and timely delivery of your rewards. We're immensely grateful for the crew—each of you—who've joined us on this expedition, lending your support and enthusiasm every step of the way.

Addressing the Issue of Addresses
5 months ago

Kind Collective of Consciousnesses!
We are happy to announce that we are locking the shipping addresses on January 7th, 2024. This means that the fulfillment of the rewards will be close to the finish line soon, and there is only one month left to finalize your shipping information. The rewards for the project will ship out in March.
This is the last chance for those who haven’t filled in their shipping information on their Backerkit surveys to enter the missing info. Please visit your Backerkit survey and answer the missing questions so you can receive the epic rewards you signed up for.
If you moved addresses since the last time you edited your pledge or are planning to move until March, please update your info to the new address. We recommend that even if you are sure that the shipping address is correct, double-check it, since even a small typo can make the delivery fail or take much longer than necessary. Browsers can sometimes automatically fill in the wrong address info, so please correct the address manually.
We didn't charge shipping fees on Kickstarter, because knowing the exact address where the package will be sent allows us to calculate the best shipping price available. The downside to this method is that the Backerkit survey is necessary to complete the purchase of all physical items. If you haven’t finalized your order on Backerkit by completing the survey and paying for the shipping, please do so. Otherwise, we won’t be able to send you the rewards we all waited for.
If you haven’t edited your Backerkit pledge survey before, please find the survey email you received from Backerkit. Make sure to search the Social, Promotions and Spam folders too, in case the email accidentally landed in one of them. You should find a link to your Backerkit survey in the email. If you have trouble finding the email or using the link, you can reach out to us by sending an email to [email protected].
Please note that it is necessary to give a phone number to the delivery service so they can notify you if needed. Failing to enter a working phone number might cause the package to be rejected. If you haven’t entered your phone number, please do so in your Backerkit survey.
If your payment fails on Backerkit, please do the following steps:
1. Check the expiration date on the card you used on your Kickstarter and Backerkit accounts. If the card has expired, please use a different card.
2. Make sure you have enough balance on your card. If you don’t have a high enough balance, the payment cannot be processed.
3. Set the daily limit on your card high enough so that the payment can be processed. You might need to change the settings in your banking application, or ask your card provider.
4. If you are still unsure what the cause of the error was, please contact the customer service at Stripe, the company handling the transactions. You can contact them on the following link:
https://support.stripe.com/
Thank you all for your continued support and dedication to this project! We are grateful to you all, and we can’t wait to send you your much-anticipated books and accessories.
Have a holiday season rich with games, smiles, and hugs!
Sincerely,
Team Elderbrain
