Adventurers,

What an incredible month February has been for Legends of Akeroth. This campaign has already exceeded every expectation we had, and it's all thanks to you.

We Surpassed £100,000!

As of this update, the Legends of Akeroth campaign has blown past £125,000 in funding. 
When we launched this campaign, we hoped you'd connect with the world we've been building. But this? This has been beyond anything we imagined! You've unlocked 16 stretch goals, and proven that Erwick is a land people want to explore.

Some of the major unlocks so far include:

  • Sanctum - Our complete digital hub for Legends of Akeroth
  • Sacred Wardens - A complete set of rules and adventures to help you defeat the four legendary protectors of Erwick using brains over brawn
  • Farming & Fishing Rules - Bring your cosy gaming dreams to life with rules to help you run your own farm, care for animals, catch and sell fish and more
  • VTT Support - Full digital assets and integration for virtual tabletop play
  • And so much more…

And we're not done yet. There are more goals on the horizon, and with your support, we're confident we'll keep unlocking them.


Sanctum Development Underway

One of the biggest unlocks from this campaign has been Sanctum - our all-in-one digital platform for Legends of Akeroth. Sanctum will be your central hub for everything you need to play and run the game, including:

  • Character Creation Tools - Build and manage your characters with intuitive digital tools
  • Spell Database - Searchable, sortable spell lists with full descriptions
  • NPC Generators - Quickly create NPCs for your sessions
  • Lore Archives - Dive deep into the history, factions, and world of Akeroth
  • GM Resources - Tools, tables, and references to make running the game easier

We'll have more updates on Sanctum's development, features, and launch timeline as work progresses.


What's Next

The campaign is still live, and there are more stretch goals on the horizon. We'll continue updating you on new unlocks, milestones, and exciting additions as the campaign progresses.

Thank you for making Legends of Akeroth what it is. This is a world we're building together, and we couldn't be more grateful to have you with us.

Adventure on,
The Crossed Paths Team ⚔️
