A Shout Out to our Friends at Arcanis

Arcanis 5e
(Long - we apologize!)
Hi everyone - this isn't something we're going to be doing often, but given the close relationship we've had with the folks at Paradigm Concepts and the big help they gave us in promoting Esper Genesis, we wanted to return the favor as best we could. Each of of has done work for them in some capacity and they are good people with a great setting. A little below, from each of us:
Eric: Our good friends at Paradigm Concepts are in their final five days for their Arcanis 5e RPG campaign. I was a founding member of the Paradigm Concepts team, and heavily involved in Arcanis for 16 years. This is one of the finer settings to come out of the d20 era and the line has won multiple Origins and Ennie Awards, and nominated for even more. This books looks to be a spectacular product given how well their 5e Forged in Magic title turned out.
Being involved with Arcanis and the community of great players and people for so long has been one of the most satisfying professional experiences of my life. It showed that a community can trancend borders and background, and that most people, ultimately, want to make a difference.
If you love epic fantasy, give it a look!
Brian: I've worked on Arcanis over the years and I'm really excited to see it being brought into 5e. Henry, Pedro, and Jimmy have been friends (and supporters of my store) for decades, and we've been going to conventions together for just as long! They've been a huge help in supporting Esper Genesis. A big part of the reason we believe our Crucible Corps organized play will be awesome is because the Living Arcanis campaign showed us how it could be done. I highly recommend checking out their KS. Arcanis is a grim fantasy world with a strong religious theme, and an extremely well-developed setting that the players had a big hand in molding.
Rich: Arcanis is a huge, deeply engaging world that carries its own tone apart from all other fantasy settings. The type of depth and focus we are putting into the Esper Genesis setting is partially inspired by the expansive story and lore that you'll find in Arcanis. Their living campaign had become the standard at a time where all the rest had fallen short. If you want to check it out, they're offering a free downloadable primer you can get here:
Details on the Dice Set Add-On

Hi, everyone!
Just an update on the custom dice add-on that will be available with the BackerKit surveys. We've settled on a manufacturer and style that fits the theme we were looking for. Here is a visual representation of the style we've chosen:
The initial sets will be 7-dice, each with the blue nebula effect and with the custom Esper Genesis logo branded onto the D6. As stated in the prior update, the dice set as an add-on is available to backers for $13.
Please watch for the BackerKit survey emails, which we plan on sending out by the end of the week.
