Can you provide any more detail or information on the Monsters of Porphyra book?
What do you like to know MMCJawa?
I like that Forgotten Foes cover!
I would like to know about Porphyra.

Porphyra is the campaign setting of Purple Duck Games. It has been in development in one form or another since Legendary I: Legendary Blades back in 2010. Almost every Pathfinder compatible product we have released has tied into Porphyra (unofficially) in some way while others are more oblique in their connections like:
- Gods of Porphyra
- Heroes of the Fenian Triarchy
- Elemental Lords of Porphyra
You can download our world map here.
The Campaign Setting - Lands of Porphyra is the next big, big project that Perry is hoping to complete.

I've enjoyed the levels of your Purple Mountain megadungeon as they've been released and I'm looking forward to the Monster Book. Could you give us a brief overview of: How many monsters are in the book? How many templates? If you can, can you give us the monster CRs? Finally, will you be posting a sample monster or two to give us a sense of what kinds of monsters are in the book? Thanks.
Thanks for your interest Tzzarg.
- There are over 120 monsters in the book including 14 templates.
- Monster CRs range from CR 1/4 to CR 25.
- Most of the monsters were selected by the patrons of the original Monster Update Subscription.
- I've created a link to the stillfiend and woodsong. Perry is still doing the final, final edit so they are not 100% finished yet but they are very close to their final form.
I have very much appreciated the feedback and patience of my patrons on this project. They have been great to work with.
I'm always up for more monsters. Dotted for interest!
I was an early supporter of the project, and some of the content is truly sick. I am quite happy with the way it has worked out...
The cover of Monsters of Porphyra is awesome. Who is the artist?
There will be print and the cover artist is Tommy Arnold. :)
I've uploaded the print-on-demand files but it sometimes takes up to a month of more for a proof to get to me in Canada and I just couldn't wait to get this out.

I followed the link and looked around, and I have a couple of questions, if you're willing.
I'm unfamiliar with Patreon; would I be charged as you complete each beast as you move along or all at once when the project is completed? Also, is there a "goal" number that you are shooting for, or is the project moving forward regardless?
Very tempted by the $5 per template/monster reward level! (All PD products for term of patronage) Thanks for indulging my curiosity!
I'm always willing to answer questions Readerbreeder.
- People that are supporters of paetron are charged once a month. You are charged per item produced. It keeps a tab as the month goes on.
- So far I've posted 5 pieces of content this month. My goal is 5-8 monsters per month.
- For Monsters of Porphyra II to be the same size as the first release we would need to do at least 120 monster by the end of the project.
- I believe you can join a patreon or leave it any time.
- You can also set a maximum pledge amount/month.
Patreon is new to me as well.
Monsters of Porphyra is now available at Paizo as well

The print file was not accepted at Amazon or DTRPG. I need to rework the files to get them to be accepted. With Amazon that will be relaying out 196 pages which may not happen if I don't get some time off work.
I reloaded to DTRPG yesterday and the file says... "Title in Premedia
S1 - 1013 - Product in Premedia" which usually takes a couple of days. Then I need to order a print proof which will take roughly a month to get here. If the print proof arrives and all looks good, it may be available starting in March. It will also go into distribution in May.
That is where we are today and my week off is over because we had a number of set-backs on other projects.
(As PDG is part-time for me; week off=full-time PDG)
The product has been approved and a proof has been ordered but it has not arrived...yet.
The proof has arrived and I uploaded an incomplete file. So its going to be another month at a minimum.
The current version is missing the credits, index, and introduction though the rest of it looks good.
I will. It has also entered the distribution process now. So I think it will be on store shelves in May or June.
Monsters of Porphyra is now available in print.
Sorry. Rpgnow seems a bit twitchy today. Trying to toggle it on again.
