Latest Updates from Our Project:

Final Proof and False Alarm!
4 days ago – Thu, May 16, 2024 at 12:22:46 PM

Hello Unnatural Selectors!

We have received our FINAL PROOF of the book, and we have approved it! HOORAY! 

We apologize for our false alarm the other day. We got the order of operations backwards. It turns out, we DON'T need to lock in orders! Everything is proceeding as planned -- we have placed the manufacturing order!

As a matter of fact, it behooves us to wait until the books are ready to ship to you before locking your addresses. What if someone moves during manufacturing? So it's a better practice to wait until the books will imminently ship to reduce delivery problems to zero. We just didn't realize this. As you know, this is our first publication of this size, so we're learning on the fly. We were just excited because we got our final proof and we're ready to cook the books! 

We're being told that manufacturing this large order is going to take two months, and then 1-2 months for it to ship to the U.S. (Remember the Shadow Barge? I suppose we'll have the Unnatural Barge to wait for. :)

Thanks for your patience and understanding. Once we make it through this entire process, we'll know it for the next time!

11 days ago – Thu, May 09, 2024 at 03:26:37 PM

The Dungeon Damsel team is bringing their long-running Crystal Saga campaign to the public. Join us tonight for our LIVE debut! 

Our 5th and 6th level heroes, the Saviors, have infiltrated the heavily guarded Shining City in an attempt to wrest the corrupting Crystal Skull artifact from the clutches of the notorious Queen Rhyne. As they prepare for an epic showdown with the queen, they must maintain their guise as emissaries of peace, bearing lavish tributes from the exotic Sandblade Peninsula. They hope that their own powerful artifact, the Crystal Rose, will assist them in this dangerous mission!

In this livestream, you'll see core Sourcebook, Unnatural Selection, and new content from our upcoming campaign book, due to release in 2025. 

All who attend will be receive a new Class from tonight's adventure that you can try out on your own! We'd love to get your feedback as we broaden our playtesting.

The Dry Spell is OVER! & Locking Orders Imminent!
about 1 month ago – Sun, Apr 14, 2024 at 03:08:50 PM

Good news!

We are awaiting our second round of proofs, which should arrive within the next week. If all is well, we'll be locking down your addresses, charging for shipping, and starting the manufacturing run! Yes we've said this before, but we mean it! We are super serial.

So that means, if you have an address change, please be sure to update it here on Backerkit.

Also, Dungeon Damsel is back on YouTube after a few month hiatus. Yay! The dry spell is over! Bunni talks about the pros and cons ( haha ) of attending GaryCon, in addition to her normal silliness, including a long awaited CAT BREAK, bursting into multiples songs, and other fun mentionables!



Also one more reminder for the Dungeon Damsel communi-titty!

Less than 4 days left for Bunni's Mimics Among Us Campaign. If you haven't grabbed a hand-drawn mimic pin, you've got a few days left to do so! Click the banner below to participate & learn more.

Thank you all, and I look forward to our next update!

New Unnatural Selection PDF is released! v1.4
about 2 months ago – Fri, Mar 29, 2024 at 01:58:38 PM

Greetings Unnatural Selectors!

An update has been made -- the latest Unnatural Selection PDF is now available for download through Backerkit. As long as your session hasn't expired (or you need to "recover your survey") then this link should take you directly to the download page:

https://unnaturalselection.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards



If you find you have having trouble, please let us know -- Backerkit is great and assisting with these sorts of problems as well. (And they will likely be faster than us, since they have people dedicated to resolving any issues you might have.)

This version (1.4) is also being printed as a proof copy, and if everything looks good, this will be the FINAL version of Unnatural Selection, which will allow us to begin the manufacturing process!

Exciting Times!

Ever since we've had the proof copies, running games at the table has been fun and convenient! We look forward to all of you being able to enjoy the same comfort and utility.

See you in the next update!
The Dungeon Damsel Team

Oh, and check out Bunni's Pin crowdfunding campaign that has already started with a bang! (In less than 24 hours, the Early Bird Specials will be gone, so if you'd like to support her, now's the time!)
