Ultimate Treasury: 1001 DnD 5E treasures, monsters, & magic

Christmastime is here! And a missing chapter is near!
over 1 year ago – Fri, Dec 23, 2022 at 09:32:00 PM

Hi all,

Well, most of the book is ready and has been uploaded as a single compiled PDF on Backerkit, containing chapters 1-12, including the newly completed Chapter 9: Class Items! 

We've also been backfilling additional artwork for multiple chapters, with more yet to come in the final edition. 

We also discovered we'd somehow lost track of a whole chapter of this book, Chapter 13: Spells and Spellbooks! Given the delays on the project, we decided to add new bonus content to this chapter that wasn't in the original Kickstarter, bringing the total to over 10,000 words, including 5 unique spellbooks with detailed history and lore, nearly a dozen new feats and class options, and nearly three dozen new spells! This chapter was finished and sent over to layout along with the accompanying artwork and will be the next chapter released. That pushes our collection of backer items to Chapter 14: The Enchanter's Vault, which will be going over to layout next week. 

We had hoped to get all parts of this book done in time for Christmas but it's not quite there. It's very close, and we've been happy to keep sending updates so you can enjoy everything that's complete (and for the sake of accountability and transparency, so you don't just have to take our word for it that things are getting close to finished). 

We hope you enjoy chapters 1-12 of the Ultimate Treasury, and we'll have Chapter 13 in your hands soon and Chapter 14 ASAP after that. Thanks for your generous support in making this project happen and our apologies again for the delay in production on this book. We know you're gonna love it! We'll let you know as soon as each item is up and ready for you. 

Meanwhile, Merry Christmas and/or the happiest of holidays and new year to you all. May you find happiness and joy as this year ends and in the year to come! 

Chapter 11 is up in Backerkit, Chapter 9 off to layout! One chapter left!

Hi all,

Thanks for your patience as we push this project to completion! I've just uploaded one of the biggest chapters in the book for you Chapter 11: Technological Treasures! You can download this chapter and check out all the awesome goodies in there right now! 

I've also completed final edits on Chapter 9: Class Items, including a set of specialized items for every base class in the 5E PHB, plus an extra set of Companion Items for your mounts, companion animals, and familiars! That chapter is now in layout! 

Last but not least, we'll have your chapter of backer contributed items! I'll be working on that starting this weekend and into next week and getting it over to layout ASAP so we can get it out for you to see and, of course, begin final assembly on the completed book! Fingers crossed we'll be ready to go in time for a Merry Christmas! 

Updated Chapter 12 is up with full art!

Hi all,

The updated Chapter 12 Beta version is up in Backerkit now, with full artwork! The final chapters are underway but wanted to update this one for you! Hope these tricky treasure monsters are a blast to unleash on your heroes! 

Chapter 12: Hoard Monsters Beta Version is up!

Hi all, 

One of the fun things about this book of treasures is that it's not just treasures per se, but we've also got a bunch of creatures that can guard treasures because many of them ARE treasures! The Beta chapter here is missing a few art pieces (they are done; we are just waiting for final layout to insert them). Head on over to your Backerkit account and you can download the new chapter! 

We've also completed our second pass on Chapter 5 to finalize that section of the book with an incredible collection of rods, staves, and wands, including all of the awesome illustrations. 

We are allllmost done! The remaining chapters to get done in layout are Class Items, Technological Treasures, and last but not least the special chapter of your contributions to the Ultimate Treasury! We appreciate your patience as we continue to grind to get this one done and look forward to having the complete collection it in your hands soon! 

As our Ultimate Treasury people approach the finish line, our separate Ultimate Faeries Kickstarter team is also hammering away on their project! If you haven't checked it out yet we encourage you to give it a look, with 15 days to go ending on November 30th, with beautiful books like Faerie Campaigns, the Faerie Bestiary, and more for DnD 5E and support for Pathfinder 1E and 2E. We're over 1000 backers just past the halfway mark and looking forward to a fantastic finish. Make the fey in your campaign truly magical and mysterious with hundreds of monsters, magic items, spells, class options, feats, and more, plus adventures, GM tools, faerie bargains and relationships, and beyond. We hope you and your group love what you'll find inside! 

Beta Chapters 2 and 3 are available for download in Backerkit! And Ultimate Faeries launches Monday!

Hi all,

Another chapter is up, in the missing Chapter 2: Potions and Alchemical Items! This is bundled with Chapter 3: Books and Scrolls, with all of the item art added in. Head on over to your Backerkit account to download it today! 

Work keeps chugging along and the next chapter up for you should be Chapter 9: Class Items, with a set of items tailored to each of the core 5E classes from barbarians to wizards! Just a few chapters left to go and we'll be ready to assemble the whole book for you! We appreciate your patience as we keep this train a-rolling after the delay in the spring and summer and hope you are enjoying each chapter as it comes out! 

As our reshaped Ultimate Treasury team keeps cracking on to the end, our Ultimate Faeries team has been working hard to make an amazing new project for all our fans, featuring the Faerie Bestiary and Faerie Campaigns with hundreds of monsters, magic items, character options, and more, plus rules for faerie bargains and relationships, fey kingdoms, evocative adventures, ready-to-use NPC allies and adversaries, and more! We also have VTT support for Fantasy Grounds, Roll20, Shard, and Foundry, plastic pawns and 3D sculpted minis, with add-ons for kingdom rules and all-ages faerie adventure! This project has versions for DnD 5E, Pathfinder 1E, and Pathfinder 2E, so whichever of those games you enjoy, you can find spectacular supplements to Make Your Game Legendary! 

The project launches this coming Monday and we would very much appreciate your support!
