The Future

Now that we've got that big one done, it's time to look towards future updates. The work is never-ending, especially when hunting the Gloom in the Neverglades. An abominable place to journey. That cursed place is an example of a legendary biome to debut in 0.1.2. Biomes in general will get some sprucing up, with their own pages and tables to inspire your adventures.

The Index will make its debut — a world government. It's sole purpose is to protect the Great Family (you, and I, and many others) from the Gloom and to learn about the hostile planet we crawl upon. It's bureaucracy is built for efficiency, just like the civilization it forged. With us. We will learn of its branches, and the Archive.

Some naming conventions may change as we playtest this version. Things may get abbreviations for easier referencing, and we'll be building the appendix anew.

More illustrations are on the way.

There will be more improvements to most facets of the game's book, now that we have a new layout.

Then we will march onwards to the mechanized behemoth known as Alpha 0.2. This monster holds tactical combat in it's clutches. We're going to defeat it and reveal combat to all of you in that update.

We're aiming for bi-monthly updates, so expect to hear from us soon.

I'm sure I'm missing even more sparkly, new things to come. Keep your eyes on the Discord.

The Patreon

Join the Index.  You should join it along with the rest of our patrons. Meet them, and let's talk about the many secrets of the world. Illuminate these dark sectors, so we may prosper on this planet.

The Index gets first dibs on populating tables to be released for free in Discord and Patreon. They gain access to our Virtual Tabletop (VTT) tokens and miscellaneous assets. They learn the shocking secrets of what's to come for Wellspring RPG, before we announce them to the world.

We'll leave you with this Rank 4 Traveler. You'll be in good hands, as he's a trusted member of the Index, and a legend in his own right.

Until next time,
