Haha, here is hoping! But honestly, there are so many awesome projects out there i wouldn't be surprised if others get chosen.

Cheers mate. I was quite happy with how the tower "map" came out.

Thanks mate!

You've hit the nail on head for my intentions! Thank you for the kind words.

Hey Phillip,
Thanks for grabbing the product! So the Bard & Ranger have official releases from the Arcane Library. Can be found on their Discord as well. The Witch, Warlock, & Knight are from The Cursed Scroll Zines, again from Arcane Library. Though the Knight is more generic than their Cursed Knight of St.Ydris. The Shaman has no "official" version, though a number of other talented creators have made Shaman Classes. One in particular being Unnatural Selections.
Cheers,
Daniel.

We've finally had time to organize a Kickstarter to cover all the classes. Check it out!

I will be doing them! Probably in September after my next project. Cheers.

I can taste the backhanded compliment haha, but I'll take the compliment part, thank you!

Cheers!

Thank you, and it's Affinity Publisher! The cheap alternative to Adobe InDesign.
There are definitely some large boons and banes within the tables, but that's kind of the whole point. To give some extra twists and turns to a new character. Some players and GMs, especially those new to TTRPGs, may find it too much, which is completely understandable. This is very much something not designed to give a perfectly "balanced" or "fair" character, its more about creating a unique and different start to the game. I know  i enjoy having a few key moment/concepts to play a character around. Like a wizard that struggles to learn new spells, but deals double damage in rage at people that have injured them. And i think much like if you rolled a character's stats all 6's (or 18's), if your Life-Path was a bit too OP or debilitating, i would just roll it all again.

They're both great points, and well worth a look into. I think initially i did do Reaction A/B. Now you've mentioned it, im not why i swapped to 1/2. Cheers mate.
Edit: Updated the doc. The feedback was great! Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words!

Thanks! If there is any specific titles you can think of I'd love to know. Always happy to revise if i can think of something better.

Thanks for reading! While i disagree, i do understand the design might be a bit too much for more traditionalists.

Thank you, much appreciated!

Many plans!

Thank you for the kind words!

I wholeheartedly agree! I will definitely be taking a crack at the other classes, and maybe even a system-neutral version.

There are definitely one or two where I was like “Is this too strong, or too harsh"? But I think it's kind of like rolling stats, sometimes you get too many 6's or too many 18's, and it's up to each player and GM to decide if it's worth a re-roll or to alter or to just let it fly and see what happens.
And cheers! I was really happy with the layout.

Thanks!
