Happy New Year from Hearkenwold I did more work on the Psionicist adventure, as well as river encounters, during the last month. I've almost finished both, but there are still some details I will need to return to. One thing I added is a new location the player can find, if the party choses to get ...

Thanks! I probably should have gone more into some of the different gaming influences, but I think I rambled on long enough. I'm glad you enjoyed the read. Ten years have gone by fast! Looking forward to the next...

If anyone is interested, I have uploaded a video of Hearkenwold from the Knights of the Chalice 2 version. This encounter comes from the recent Edinmoor adventure, also present in the IceBlink module. Here, the battle map uses a Fog terrain feature that limits movement. Notably, the tactical five fo...

(First two parts of this retrospective are on the previous page.) Part 3: The Last Five Years and Beyond Starting the new year in 2017, I prepared to work on what I would call Chapter III of the module. This would include the Fortress Relmfur and surrounding outdoor areas, as well as the city of Ska...

Part 2: Early Stages of Development Looking back at the actual construction of the module, the IceBlink engine has undergone many changes and versions over the past decade.

December Update For this month’s update, I decided to write a retrospective covering the ten years I’ve been working on Hearkenwold. Part 1: Design Blueprint This module is a project that goes back to the earliest Alpha build immediately following the successful Kickstarter for the Iceblink engine ...

slowdive, I was able to watch yesterday's stream of Raventhal a few hours afterward. It was great to see the 3D view in the iceblink basic version. Looked like a lot of fun with the fans following along.

Sounds good! I can't believe it has been ten years already, but that's right. The Kickstarter for IceBlink was funded back in November 2012.

Will you be adding new psionic spells/traits? Thanks! Unfortunately, at this time, I had not planned on new psionic spells or traits, although given the release schedule, I can probably work something in. I have to give that some thought. In the gameworld, Psionicists are wizards who have more of a...

November Update For the past few weeks, I have been working on the new Psionicist adventure that will be built into the Hearkenwold campaign. I had hoped to have this knocked out in a month, but I fell a little behind schedule. The plan is to finish up this month and then I will return to the wilde...
