If just half of my followers clicked the 'Notify Me On Launch' KS button, I could launch this campaign tomorrow!

Three fantasy adventurers--an orc, an elf, and a tiefling--overlook a valley with towns, forests, and a river. Off in the far distance, there is a monstrously large dragon. The sky is blue with white clouds, two small moons, and a ringed planet.

Behold, the writing team of Twelve Realms!

I'm so lucky! I tried to count the accolades/awards they collectively have and I lost track. I'll try another time.

Help us to get to 1K followers so we can make this game and these folks can get to writing!

Art by Eduardo Comettant features three fantasty adventuers--an orc, an elf, and a tiefling--overlooking a valley that has a wide river, villages, castles, mine entrances, and forests. In the distance is a mountain range, beyond that an impossibly large dragon. In the daytime sky, there are white clouds, two small moons, and a ringed planet

Here's how Twelve Realms got started:

1) Fall out of love with previously played TTRPGs
2) Spend a year reading/taking notes on dozens of TTRPG rulebooks
3) Still feel dissatisfied
...
7) Make an original game

A screenshot of a text-based interview. The visible words read, "[7:39 PM]Adam Makes TTRPGs (he/they): Hi, everyone! I’m Adam Hancock, an adamantine-bestselling TTRPG creator, author/co-author of many things, including Demiverse, An Elf and an Orc Had a Little Baby, Those Who Wander, and more. I’m here tonight to talk about my upcoming crowdfunding campaign for Twelve Realms, an original, built-from-the-ground-up fantasy tabletop RPG. I’m searching for 1,000 prelaunch followers so I can launch the campaign, so please consider hitting the Notify Me On Launch button here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gnomemadegames/twelve-realms-rpg The game is two books, the Realmsguide and the Rulebook. You only need the Rulebook to play the game. And you only need the Realmsguide if you want to play in our original fantasy setting with a different system, but you get the most for your money getting both.(edited)" Beneath the words is the cover art for Twelve Realms, along with the wordmark. The art depicts three adventurers--an orc, an elf, and a tiefling--overlooking a valley beyond which is a monstrously huge dragon. In the daytime sky is a ringed planet and two small moons.

Three adventurers, an orc, an elf, and a tiefling look over a big valley with a river, towns, boats, and a castle. Beyond them is an enormous dragon, blued by the distance. In the sky, there's a ringed gas planet and two small moons. A wordmark reading Twelve Realms is in the top-right corner. The Gnome Made Games and No AI logos are in the bottom-right corner.
