Scion 2nd Edition Kickstarter: Week 1

Proposed, Not Final, Cover DesignThe Scion 2nd Edition Kickstarter has been live for a week. How’s it doing?

We fully funded in the first 37 minutes! Wow!

As I type this:

  • We’re currently at a stunning 734% of our goal, which would place Scion as the fifth highest Kickstarter Onyx Path has run in terms of percentage if we were to end right now.
  • We have 2206 backers, which places Scion as the sixth most-backed Kickstarter Onyx Path has run.
  • We have an incredible $183,550, which makes us the eight-highest funded Onyx Path Kickstarter, but climbing rapidly. Less than $10K until we pass Pugmire, even!
  • We’ve hit 11 stretch goals so far, including:
    • The Scion Companion, which includes the return of the Loa, the Gallic pantheon, 1e -> 2e Translation Guide, mortal cults, making your own pantheon (feat. the Atlanteans)
    • Scion Kickstarter T-shirt
    • Introductory fiction from Kieron Gillen, author of The Wicked + The Divine, Journey Into Mystery, Phonogram, etc.
    • Scion Jumpstart
    • Scion Fiction Anthology w/ five stories
    • Scion LARP

Long story short, things are crazy amazing. We have 23 days to go. Join us now!

    Now that it’s passed the US$175,000 stretch goal and making its way toward $190,000, has there been any talk about what stretch goals will come after that, or are such things not your department?

      Discussion of future stretch goals is happening nearly constantly.

        May I suggest new boons for each purview?

        How many stretch goals do you usually plan out to start with?

          Depends on the KS and how it is designed. For a core book KS like Scion, 12-24 with the idea that we’ll have chapter/section ones broken out for some of them like the Scion Companion. We also leave room for good ideas suggested by the backers.

    I completely missed the bit about the shirt (I knew one was coming but hadn’t seen any details yet). Yay!!

    Quick question about the final product: Will the spines be glued in or stitched in? Stitched spines last a whole lot longer, so I would be ecstatic if you guys went that direction. I’ll love the books either way, of course!
