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.

Latest Updates from Our Project:
Addressing the Issue of Addresses

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

Enjoyed Baldur's Gate, Pillars of Eternity or Pathfinder Kingmaker? These games inspired Black Geyser, an isometric computer RPG with rich lore. They’re now running a Kickstarter campaign with amazing rewards for their expansion Tales of the Moon Cult, but you can get there the base game and a beautiful Collector's Edition as well.

THE CARDS HAVE BEEN DEALT
We're in the final stages of editing the Torrents of the Spellhoarder book, which is expected to span just over 500 pages. Meanwhile, our printers have completed production of the Booster Cards and the Deck of the Hive Mind and have also begun producing accessories, including location and encounter maps, art prints, sticker sheets, and character sheets.
These exquisite Booster Cards serve as a useful tool for both you and your players. They aid in keeping track of NPCs encountered and provide information about magic items, spells, feats, and factions. Notably, six of these cards feature a stunning golden metallic foil finish.
Additionally, the Deck of the Hive Mind boasts a collection of 300 distinct illustrated NPC cards. Each card includes names and memorable quotes, making it a convenient and rapid resource to add flavor to your gaming sessions.

Dear Cortex-buddies,
Now that we have moved into product design, all the contents of the accessory boxes and add-ons are continuously being handed over to our trusted printing house. The latest of these are the two DM screens we have prepared for Torrents of the Spellhoarder and Crown of the Oathbreaker.
Both include basic rules and random encounter tables. Torrents features the basics of naval combat rules, while Crown has a special section for Midnight Curse effects. Check them out:
