Hey, Brendan here!

I've wrapped up Vault of the Elders, Rift Wardens of Nexus, and the digital exclusives (tokens, wallpapers, and digital art pack)!

If you backed any of these products, you will get an email in the next few minutes (if not already) with a link to the products. You can also get to them directly and anytime by visiting the digital library I built for you here: https://shop.knightvisioncreative.com/apps/downloads/orders

If you're stuck, I put together a video walkthrough on accessing your library:



Next project is going to be a Halloween themed one-shot with new player options and of course epic artwork.


Make sure to follow so you don't miss out!

This project was quite the adventure and it feels good to finalize the delivery of everything. I'm stoked with how everything turned out and can't wait to see you on the next one!

Talk soon,
Brendan

🧿2 free subclasses. Rift Wardens of the Nexus Update. Vault of the Elders Update.
5 months ago – Fri, Feb 27, 2026 at 11:03:46 PM

Hey, Brendan here!

2 Free Subclasses

The animated pdf adventure, Creed Shadow Stalker, just unlocked two subclasses that you are getting for free. A monk specializing in shields and a cleric specializing in throwing crosses and holy water.

If we hit 101 reviews, we'll unlock a third subclass!

These subclasses will be added to the Tome of Endless Wonders, the free, 200+ page preview of Knight Vision Creative content. (You can snag your free copy here)

Rift Wardens of the Nexus

The last subclass illustration is wrapping up!

Outstanding Tasks:
  • The lore is being double checked for world building development congruency. 
  • The 2 body modification options are going through the final writing round.
  • The second half of the manuscript will run through technical editing as soon as the writing is complete.
  • Final layout will be completed once the illustration and editing are complete.

Vault of the Elders

  • The first encounter will be running through initial playtesting on Friday.
  • The stat blocks first draft has been completed.

There are a handful of you in Denmark that are still having shipping issues. I'm working this with the fulfillment team to see what we can do. I've reached out to a second partner to see if they have any additional options we can pursue. I'm not sure why they you are receiving notices your books have arrived either not at all, or after they sent them back because they were unclaimed. That's obviously not helpful... I'll be in touch with you next week, keep an eye out for an email from me.

Talk soon,
Brendan

P.S. If you want to get in on the magic of the animated digital book, pledge now. You only have a few hours left. The first animation is being worked for the thrown weaponry spread, and it is looking epic!

Creed's Codex: Echoes of the Shattered Age

99% of products are in backer's hands. There are a 4 of you who have run into shipment issues. I am working those with the fulfillment center, though it has been more drawn out than I was hoping. They keep getting hammered with inclement weather and have been closed. I heard back on Wednesday that they are working on them. I am expecting a follow up this week to close these issues out.


Rift Wardens Update

Rift Wardens is going substantially slower than I was planning. Expected release will be April.
  • Bad news first. I ended up scrapping the manuscript. It was too complicated, the technical editor had hundreds of questions that would need to be answered, and it was not going to deliver the experience I was planning. I'm just about done rewriting it and will be sending it off to the technical editor in the next few weeks. 
  • It was a tough call to make, but I've done the struggle with trying to repair a manuscript with this level of rework needed. It wasn't worth it, and as painful as it is to discard something I've paid for, long-term I'm confident it's the right decision.
  • We're approaching the finish line on the illustrations! The subclasses in particular are spectacular. Third subclass illustration should be wrapping up this week or next!


Vault of the Elders

The encounters, subclasses, and creatures are beginning to take form! I'm working closely with the writer who's bringing it all together, and there are some killer ideas here. I'll drop another update in April with the details on the timeline.

Tokens, Wallpapers, and Digital Art Pack

The final illustrations are getting added to the products. I'll publish an initial version next month, and then add any final illustrations that trickle in as part of the final two PDFs.

Next Project

I had an idea to animate the illustrations in a PDF based on some obscure documentation I found in InDesign. InDesign is the tool I use for manuscript layout. 

I built a prototype, and it turned out unbelievably cool!



The next book will launch later this year once I wrap up everything from this project. Before I make the next book, I wanted to try animating a full pdf.

I'm running a mini kickstarter to test it, and it's live right now! Come check it out!

If you have any questions, feel free to message me on Discord.

🧿Are you ready for 14 subclasses with full-page illustrations?
9 months ago – Mon, Nov 10, 2025 at 05:21:45 PM

Paths of Power went out this morning! 


❤️‍🔥If you picked it up, head to your digital library to grab it.
Here's a 60 second walkthrough if you haven't accessed your library yet:



🏪If you didn't grab it, you can get it in the Knight Vision Creative store.

⭐The lifeblood of a small business are their reviews. With this in mind, if we can get 20 reviews by the end of the day tomorrow, I'll make a new free subclass for you!

Bonus, when you leave a review, you get 20% off a future purchase! One of those win-win-win situations.

For the handful of you that got a notification email it was ready and ran into an issue with "payment is pending", I worked with Shopify this afternoon for an excruciating number of hours and they were no help. I have found a manual workaround and resolved the issue. If you still hit an error, email me: [email protected] or hit me up on Discord.

Talk soon!

P.S. Don't forget to follow the next campaign and grab the 200-page free PDF on the pre-launch page (can't use the app, Kickstarter hasn't ported the pre-launch pages or updates from the website over to the app yet).
