Imaria: The Pillars of Power, 5e setting and module books

Layout Update and Other Projects
17 days ago – Wed, Aug 21, 2024 at 10:53:59 AM

Greetings, Imarians!

We're making great progress on the layout, but we did encounter a brief delay due to an unexpected personal emergency for one of our team members. The good news is we're back on track and moving forward smoothly. We're in the final stretch now!

An'Imaria

In the meantime, we have some exciting things to share! Japanime Games has licensed Imaria and will be releasing their own supplements and world book, all ani-mized for your anime-loving pleasure! If you're a fan of anime, Imaria, and D&D 5e, this campaign is perfect for you. While we're not the ones running it, we think you'll absolutely love what Japanime Games has in store here.

Legacy of Worlds Season 2

We are super excited to have been involved with Six Sides of Gaming's actual play Legacy of Worlds featuring Ed Greenwood, Luke Gygax, Keith Baker, and many others! Imaria plays a pivotal role in the story as the greatest heroes of the multiverse travel the known worlds of D&D! It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness the creators of D&D’s greatest realms in action, bringing their worlds to life like never before.

Creating a high-quality actual play series demands considerable resources. While Season 1 was a self-funded labor of love, continuing at this level is becoming increasingly challenging. To bring this thrilling new season to life, we’re offering an array of exclusive rewards that you won’t want to miss—from limited-edition dice sets and signed dice trays to a unique John Kovalic poster featuring our legendary cast. For the ultimate fan experience, we’re even offering the chance to dine with the cast and earn your very own Executive Producer credit on the show and IMDB!

By supporting us here, you’re not just funding a show—you’re joining a community of adventurers shaping the future of D&D storytelling. Get ready for a season packed with heart-pounding adventures, gripping narratives, and the kind of intense role-playing that only the masters of the craft can deliver.

Patreon Evolution

The Hivearch's control of the repository of content known as the Imaria Patreon continues, with a wide array of updates for even the most humble (and dearly appreciated) of tiers being concocted! New Magic Items, Adventuring Gear, Subclasses, Creatures of all shapes and sizes, and NPCs ready to drop into any campaigns set in the world of Imaria. Also, the Maps and Adventures you love will continue to exist amongst them, as well as the Previews and Playtests for upcoming Imaria books!

Further Updates

Our hope is that our next update will include the release date for the digital version of Imaria: The Pillars of Power. We appreciate your patience through the delays, and we're happy to say that everything is finally coming together.

Stay tuned for more updates!

Layout and 2024 Ruleset!

Progress Report

July 10, 2024

Greetings, Imarians!

We’re reaching out to you live from Gen Con 2024, where we’ve been fortunate enough to receive an early copy of the upcoming 2024 ruleset. After thoughtful discussions with industry experts, we’ve decided to offer a version of Imaria: The Pillars of Power compatible with the new ruleset, in addition to the original 5e version.

However, with this exciting opportunity comes an unfortunate slight delay, so we won’t be able to release the PDF this weekend as we initially planned. The good news is that the book has completed its final editing pass and is now in the layout phase. We’re confident it will be ready for you soon!

In the meantime, our team is hard at work adjusting the content to fit the 2024 ruleset, aiming to have that version available soon after the full release. Thank you for your patience and continued support!

We are super excited to have been involved with Six Sides of Gaming's actual play Legacy of Worlds featuring Ed Greenwood, Luke Gygax, Keith Baker, and many others! Imaria plays a pivotal role in the story as the greatest heroes of the multiverse travel the known worlds of D&D!

Further Updates

We sincerely apologize for the delays and want to assure you that it is only due to our commitment to providing the best quality we can. We hope that once you receive this nearly 500 page tome, you will see why we strove so hard!

Stay tuned for future updates!

Greetings, Imarians!

Firstly, we must once again thank you for your patience, and apologize for the delay in updates. We have been diligently working to obtain the final art pieces and adventure modules, hoping to deliver an update once we had them all. Unfortunately, we are still waiting on some contributors to submit their work.

However, we remain committed to our August Gen Con 2024 delivery date for Imaria: The Pillars of Power digital PDF. Regardless of whether we have all the art in hand, we will be sending out the digital PDF on schedule. Should some art assets be missing, you can rest assured that we will provide updated versions as the remaining pieces come in.

This also means that Imaria Nights will not be ready for the Gen Con 2024 date, as we are still coordinating with collaborators to finalize their submissions. We are working hard to ensure you receive your Imaria adventures as soon as possible!

Below are some examples of the art pieces we have already received, with many more on the way!

We apologize profusely for the delays, but please rest assured it's because we are striving for excellence. We will focus on being more attentive with communication in the future and hope you'll understand once you have the book in hand and venture forth into our world!

Stay tuned for future updates!

However! Digital copies of the books will still be in your inboxes by Gen Con in August, so you'll still be able to adventure into Imaria before summer's end! During this time, we're also focusing on enhancing the presentation of the books and delving into the artwork.
