What’s included in the Brawler and Storyteller Collections?

Welcome, Mages! 🧙

We’re now two weeks past launch and are cooking up new features, fixing bugs, and considering player feedback as we reshape our backlog and roadmap.

We’re also gearing up to launch two collections in the in-game marketplace: The Brawler Collection and the Storyteller Collection. If you’ve spent a few minutes cruising through what’s in the marketplace now, you likely noticed these collections and their ‘Coming Soon’ banners.

Today, we’ll reveal what each collection includes.

Let’s begin.

[h2]What are these collections, and what do they feature?[/h2]

The Storyteller Collection and Brawler Collection each offer GMs a pack of pre-made assets created by fantastic fantasy artists and our VFX and SFX teams. Each collection will help GMs homebrew campaigns and one-shots, and they are both geared towards their own side of roleplay; combat and theatrics.

Here’s what they’re each slated to include, though some of the naming could change for individual items.

[h2]Where are we with these collections now?[/h2]

Almost all of the art, music, and sound effects are in place for each collection. Now, we’re working on VFX, monster balancing, and pricing.

We’re still slated to release these collections soon, but we don’t have a precise release date just yet. A quick glance at the roadmap reveals that we have these slated for Q3 2024 (ending September 30th), and we’re well within that window.

[h2]How much will these collections cost?[/h2]

As of now, we haven’t landed on a final price for these Collections.

What we do know is that the Storyteller Collection will be cheaper than the Brawler Collection. Both Collections represent a lot of work, of course, but the Brawler Collection’s animated battlemaps, new monsters and creatures, and unique VFX and SFX are significantly more expensive to create. As such, it will be more expensive.

We'll let you know once we figure out those final price points and the exact release date.



[h2]Before we go, some community news! 📰 [/h2]

With the launch of Fablecraft, we’ve been working closely with our community to understand how they’d like to utilize our Discord to find groups, chat with devs, deliver feedback, and learn about what’s coming for the game itself.

Join the Fablecraft Discord

Now’s a great time to join Discord, as we’ve rolled out some changes to our party-finding sections. You’ll now find a party chat for individual players looking for groups and a handy event bot for GMs who are hosting upcoming games and looking for players. That scheduling bot helps streamline event creation and automate signups and reminders.

Get in here and get a session going!

We’ll see you next week, Mages. 👋
