We just activated our Patreon pre-launch page less than a week ago and already we have our first Pre-Launch Tier patrons! Amazing! These wonderful peeps are (we hope!) already enjoying their first Dragon's Forge miniature and looking forward to lots more to come!
Speaking of which, we thought you might enjoy taking a closer look at some of the fantastic fantasy characters that will become available to all Red Dragon Tier patrons in January as part of our Adventurers Welcome Pack. There are 12 in all, including a very handsome depiction of our benevolent overlord himself, Thrax Forgemaster.
Thrax will be joined by some slightly more traditional (but no less unique) heroes representing a broad range of fantasy characters, classes and cultures, including a dwarf fighter, an elf paladin and a halfling bard. That's in addition to less common folk such as a katmandari monk, a half-orc dandy and the monstrous Khartesian minotaur!
You may have noticed that these welcome pack characters each have a name. These aren't simply to add colour, as each of them will launch along with a pre-made character sheet to use with your favourite TTRPG system. Discover their strengths, weaknesses and rich backstories, then choose your favourite and start your adventure! You could even take them for a spin in one of the original adventure modules we'll be publishing to accompany each of the monthly miniature collections, starting with Von Keelhaul's Drakenreef Pirates.
As with all of our Patreon miniatures, the welcome pack will be available for patrons to download as STL files in both pre-supported and unsupported formats to suit your preference. They're designed with 28mm and 32mm scales in mind, but you can of course print them at whatever size you like - Thrax in particular would make an excellent larger scale figure painting project.
To see the rest of the miniatures in the welcome pack up close, check out the recent post on our Patreon page. We'd love for you to join us as a Pre-Launch Tier patron too, which comes with all kinds of benefits and, yes - more great miniatures! The full launch may not be until January, but there's still plenty going on as we make the final preparations to embark on this epic quest!
