Manage episode 349860164 series 3407268
Writing something like the world of Vrahode takes a lot of work! Everything from flora to fauna to the creatures that live in the world are original. To make all that come to life, you need a talented writer. Enter Shawn Allen Dressler.
Shawn is a published fantasy author known for his series, The Five. He and Jeff work together as a team to develop the campaign book for Vrahode. In this podcast, you can learn how that works.
Vrahode will be coming to Kickstarter most likely in quarter four of 2023. When that campaign goes live, you will not only be able to buy the core game, Vrahode: The Calteeryn Ascension, but its three expansions as well.
Learn more about Vrahode on the website, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
