And we're funded! Thank you all so much. It really means a lot to me that you all helped make this project a success. Here's what's going to happen now:

• Next two weeks: Kickstarter collects all the money, and gives those of you whose payment errors a chance to put in alternate means of paying. Also, I take things easy for a week, and then get to work setting up a BackerKit pledge manager.
• End of November: I'm at Dragonmeet in London, on the 30th of November, on a stall with the other members of the UK Indie RPG League. If you're attending, come and say hi!
• December: I'll launch the BackerKit, letting you upgrade your pledge, give details on the custom content you want to make with me, and give shipping information. Money earned here from pledge upgrades and addons will go towards unlocking the final stretch goal!
• Onwards: I'll continue working on the book, playtesting and fleshing out systems. You'll receive updates through this kickstarter page and itch.io - I'll make sure that all information is available here as well as anywhere else.

Thanks again!

Hey folks,

What a great final day, huh? We've smashed past the £24,000 stretch goal, and I'm very excited to see how we do in the final stretch. There's still time to spread the word about the project, but thanks for all your support so far!

I'm planning on celebrating the closing of this project by hanging out in the voice chat of our Discord server. If you want to hang out too, or just ask any burning questions you want the answer to, please come along at ~5:30 GMT onwards!

Best wishes,

Jay

48 hours to go, and £20k hit! Read on for details on our final stretch goal...

Hey folks,

We're down to the wire now, but I am very excited to say that we've crossed the £20,000 stretch goal, and we'll be commissioning art for every playbook in the game - for the core seven, and for those we've unlocked with this campaign. 

Next up at £24,000, we'll be adding in a rogue's gallery of Vassals to the game, and upgrading the Covenant deck with a better card quality and a fully-printed tuckbox.

And what next? Well, the Trapped isn't the only playbook we have ideas for. If we hit £28,000, an eighth playbook will be added to the game: The Penitent.

The Penitent was very close to the Castle. Maybe they were a Vassal, or one of their minions? But now they're trying to put that behind them, and address the hurt they caused when they were benefiting from the castle's power. They have an uneasy relationship with the other rebels, as they likely crossed swords in the past - and the Void is coiled deep in their hearts ready to welcome them back into the fold. 

The Penitent will give groups tools to tell stories of rehabilitation, restitution and justice - and grapple with what it actually means to move on and make a difference. I'm very excited to see what groups will do with it!
