New Stretch Goal: Community-Created Ancestries & Classes

We’ve just revealed a new stretch goal at $135,000, and this one invites the Dungeon Damsel community to help shape the people of Druskara.

When this goal is unlocked, backers will be able to suggest and vote on new ancestries and classes to be created for the setting. Multiple options may be developed depending on what the community brings forward and what fits the world best.

You’ll also be able to suggest ideas for ancestral talents and traits, helping define what makes these new peoples and heroes unique.

Once the community has spoken, the Dungeon Damsel team will refine and develop the final versions, ensuring they fit the tone of Shadowdark & Druskara. 

We love involving the community in the creative process. It helps us build things people truly want to see at their tables, and it lets you become part of shaping the world.

If you’d like to see this stretch goal unlocked, please consider sharing the campaign and spreading the word. Every pledge helps move us closer to creating a truly AWESOME setting.

Reminder

Backers who join within the first 48 hours will receive an exclusive mirror-silver centaur sticker. With its reflective metallic finish, it shines like polished silver and captures one of Druskara’s proud warriors in gleaming detail. This sticker is only available during the first two days of the campaign.

Let’s go!

Hello Backers & Followers!

Druskara funded in just 10 minutes, and that happened because of you. Thank you so much for jumping in so fast and believing in this world we’ve been building. And there were many willing to get up at the butt-crack of dawn to support us!

Reminder we have a 48-hour Early Bird sticker — it’s large, mirror-like, and super shiny, and it’s exclusive to the first 48 hours of the campaign. After that, it disappears. Poof, bye shiny.

So if you’ve been watching and waiting, now’s the time to hop in before the cab door closes. Get on the hype train now!

Seriously… this backer train has left the station. Choo choo!

Thank you everyone!
Conductor Bunni (Dungeon Damsel)

DM Screen Extension – WIP Art Reveal
5 months ago – Tue, Jan 13, 2026 at 08:56:24 AM

A Look Behind the Screen

We’re excited to share a work-in-progress sketch for the Druskara DM Screen, which also serves as an extension of the Standard Edition slipcase.

This piece shows a Lich King driving his undead horde toward stranded adventurers, with an undead dragon descending from the cavern sky as the attack closes in. Because this artwork is designed as an extension piece, it’s being developed to align seamlessly with the completed slipcase art—so what you’re seeing here is intentionally unfinished.

The illustration is by Mark Riddick, and even at the sketch stage, his iconic linework brings the danger and scale of Druskara into focus.

Get your FREE LUCK TOKEN when you sign up to be notified, along with more info and updates!

More to come!
