Hey all,
There have been a lot of changes presented by the new OneDnD playtest that would impact the next project I had planned. Before I continue I wanted to get your input as to what you as a player want and/or need in the coming months. I made a 1 question survey. I hope you'll let me know your thoughts.

Updated print-at-home PDFs

I've sent out an update to the print-at-home PDFs. I think this should address a couple of concerned backers.
Originally I went with how the application I was using was letting me create a page with 4 other pages together. It ended up being off-center for some reason. While I had success at home printing them just fine using a printer that prints to both sides I didn't think how this might impact others who might not have the same results.
I've corrected the issue and will have all future PDFs work the same way.
With WOTC slow-rolling the new OGL I might actually have time to get the next campaign going with no issues and be compliant with the current OGL. I have a few things to look into and a whole lot of art to create for the Kickstarter page.
Stay tuned and please continue to have fun.
All my best,
Aaron
Skwirl's Future and the OGL

Hey all,
Like many of you, I have been keeping abreast of the OGL situation. I've just stepped into this TTRPG landscape that started like a summer day and woke up to a storm brewing on the horizon.
While I might be a level 1 Druid, I'm surrounded by a community that has been readying for this day over 20 years in the making and many of you are legendary statuses. This is our game and we are going to fight for it.
While I'm waiting to see what Wizards of the Coast has in store for us, Skwirl and the gang are not standing still. I'm planning on bringing you more useful ready reference cards. I'm also going to look into other formats. Do druids in Pathfinder need the same ready references handy? If so, I'll figure out how to make that an option. Is there another system that needs these cards?
I took a break trying to take in all that is happening. And soon I'll get back to work on finishing my plans for the next campaign. It might take a little longer to get going as I probably have a few more versions of the cards to make. I'm excited about the idea of making things for a lot more gamers.
Again, here's the list of options I'm aiming for in the next campaign. There's a little bit more artwork to do as well as some designing.
- 50 more druid stat cards (completing what's in the SRD)
- Find Familiar
- Find steed
- Find greater steed
- Conjure woodland animals
- Warlock Familiars (pact of the chain)
- Unseen servant
- Homunculus
- Conjure Elemental
- Potions
Expansion 1 beast list and Find Familiar Preview

Hey all,
Hope your holidays are going well. I've still got a few things to iron out for the first expansion. The bulk of the work will be putting the actual campaign together.
I wanted to share the list of beasts with everyone. This caps off the rest of the beasts in the SRD with a few extras like the Snow Cat.
I'm working on a new set that I've mentioned. And for now, we're calling it Akasha's Arcane Menagerie. Here's a peek at the Bat familiar. Based on the feedback from the survey I put out (thank you all so much for participating) I will be working on the stat design still a bit. There are some creatures that have a ton of stats that might be a bit too hard on the eyes at card size. The Quasit is a great example of a creature with a lot of stats.
One question I have for you all is about the art side of the card. On the wild shape cards, I added a handy CR for quick reference. What would you want for quick reference on these? maybe the AC would be the most helpful?
A note about the survey answers you've all provided.
There are quite a few things you'd love to have that I probably won't be able to make just the way you'd like them. Many items or creatures are not in the SRD and thus are in the off-limits area of making cards of them. I can accommodate many though. And I'm excited to bring those to you. Here's a list of items I'll be considering:
- Find Familiar
- Find steed
- Find greater steed
- Conjure woodland animals
- Warlock Familiars (pact of the chain)
- Unseen servant
- Homunculus
- Conjure Elemental
- Potions
