Culinary Character Options has been unlocked!
Next at $2100: Culinary Magic Cookbook (Metric Version) for our international fans!

We're just $17 short of reaching our first stretch goal! Once we get there, we'll announce stretch goals #2 and #3 (codenames: Afternoon Tea and Dinner)!

I'll probably be making that cauliflower pizza this weekend. I'll be sure to take notes of any deviations to the recipe I make so if it turns out well I'll have it ready to turn in.

Awesome! I know I'm not supposed to have favorites, but cauliflower is easily one of my top 5 veggies.

Stretch Goal #1: Character Options will feature a new style feat tree, 3 mundane items, 3 kitchen-themed weapon, a magic weapon property, 2 magic armor/shield properties, 3 wondrous items, 2 hexes, a bardic masterpiece, 2 alchemist discoveries, a subdomain, and 4 new archetypes. We want to include something for everyone!

Backed.

(thought I had done so earlier, sowwy!)

Woot! No problemo, thanks for pushing us over the base goal!

$2 from funding!

The Print on Demand option is interesting. I'm glad to see that that exists as a viable module for publishers.

Good luck!

Yeah, we're glad it exists, too. We aren't looking to sell 1000+ print copies, so print on demand is ideal. And the print vouchers let us avoid most of the headache associated with print.

Thanks!

This is just wacky enough to be interesting!

Kind of makes fondly me think back to the old DragonLance suppliment "Leaves of the Last Home"

Thanks, wacky is the name of our game!

Yeah, it's a bit like that with a similar style of instructions. We don't feature any songs or poems in the book though. :)

I saw that list, definitely a lot of interesting recipes on there.

If you don't mind too much, you can keep the Champion's Breakfast and I'll keep making my mushroom omelette. :)

That's understandable. If we make a Cooking Mishaps book, it won't be hard to think of what bad stuff can happen after slurping raw eggs. :P

Halfway there!
We just added a Master List of the 75 recipes to the project.

30%!

I finished reading this morning, and... I'm torn. On the one hand, it's a great base idea, and the characters and little adventures and such in the document all have potential. On the other hand... I was left at the end thinking, "That's it?" I guess to some degree it's a good thing that I wanted more, but on the other hand... well, I felt like there were a lot of gaps I'd have to fill in were I to actually run the circus as a location a party visited. I don't know if that's intentional because of the short format of the series or its setting-agnostic nature or what, but the whole thing just feels a bit too skeletal detail-wise.

Of course, I recognize this is colored by my preferences, and some people may love the freedom to fill in the gaps themselves. It just felt too thin to me. I'll try to be more explicit on the details when I write a full review. Whenever I have time for that.

Thanks for the feedback!

Oooo...

Yesss, you know you need Bacon-Wrapped Corn-on-the-Cob in your Pathfinder game.

EF YES!!!

For those of you that are into polls as much as we are, we've got a poll going to vote on potential stretch goals. As always, we encourage you to submit your own ideas. :)

For you fans of Culinary Magic, we just launched the Culinary Magic Cookbook Kickstarter, featuring 75+ recipes and updated rules on the Culinary Magic subsystem!

Link

It's live!

The Culinary Magic Cookbook contains updated rules for the Culinary Magic subsystem, previously introduced in Letters from the Flaming Crab: Culinary Magic.

The Cookbook features 75+ recipes that both you and your character can make. What better way to enhance your RP than to share with your gaming group the same Breakfast Pizza that your character makes!

All that is required to utilize the Culinary Magic subsystem is 1 feat and an investment in the Craft (culinary) skill. We believe that cooking is the magic which belongs to everyone!

Does the puppeteer have any subtypes for its marionette based on the puppetry styles mentioned?

Nope, but we did do something similar with archetypes. For example, shadowgraphy features the Umbral Puppeteer (Summoner Archetype).

Got to admit, looks like a very tempting and intriguing class combination.

Could you tell us a bit more about the puppeteer? What features of Summoner and Vigilante are used/combined?

Sure! d8 HD, 6 skill ranks, 3/4 BAB, good Will.

Now Available!

Thank you!

Fans of the Letters:

You all know by this point that we love polls and surveys. Now that 2016 is wrapped up, we'd love for you to fill out a quick survey to let us know how we're doing and which Letters were your favorite. Each question is optional, so you only have to fill out what you want to let us know. It should only take a couple minutes and it would mean a lot to us!

Thanks!

LINK!

So does that mean I get a FREE copy? Because I really NEED a free copy! :-)

Yup! That's exactly what that means!

Now, whoa... that looks like something cool to drop into an adventure!!! Swap you a pdf for a review?

That sounds like a fair trade to me!

Yes, please. This would be interesting to use in my Occult campaign.

Oooh! I think the Living Tapestry would fit right in!

I would love a copy. I am very fond of the previous Letters.

We're glad you've been enjoying the series!

My group would love this! We're running some homebrew and just got to a hamlet. This could add some much needed entertainment.

Definitely, Argent & Midnight’s Circus Esoterica and Extravaganza of the Strange only passes through small towns!

Hmm... by my count...

Hydra choir sounds hilarious and terrifying simultaneously. Also I'm GMing for a party that consists of the heads of a hydra, so... might give me some ideas. :D

Yep, you're number 10!

Now available!

Hey quick question Flaming Crab,

With the Order of the White Rose what mechanism do they use to select their ward? Is it like Order of the Guard where everyday they can pick a new ward for their abilities or does the order run on its own unique timetable like only being able to select a new ward once per level?

The original intent of the order was only being able to select a ward a single time. The wards granted by Extra Wards were also intended to be permanent decisions. However, that can be awfully restricting... and next time we revise this book, we will let white rose cavaliers choose their ward(s) at the beginning of each day.

Thanks, Rick!

Thanks a bunch for the review! Glad you liked the addition of lesser known species. I hadn't heard of half of them before, myself.

Thanks a bunch for the review! We hope to have part 3 out soon!

We have updated Murder Bunnies to include height, weight, and starting ages.

An interesting sci-fi idea: Combine this PDF with whatever rules Starfinder has for low gravity, and you can have a setting like Larry Niven's The Integral Trees.

That's a fun idea! We may even make a spiritual successor to the World Tree for Starfinder. Maybe the Planet Tree?

Yay! Thankies!

I'll write a review as soon as I can download it, stupid slow internet at the house >_<

Awesome, we appreciate it!

We really appreciate getting 4 reviews within 1 month of the product being released!

Based on feedback, we made a minor update where we replaced the room baa with the whammy rug! We would appreciate updated reviews if possible. :)

Thanks a bunch for the review, BV210!
