Status Report: Frontiers of Eberron, PAX Unplugged, and More

Approximately one year ago, I began working on a new 5E sourcebook for Eberron: Frontiers of Eberron, a setting-within-the-setting focusing on the region that lies between Breland and Droaam. My plan was that you'd have that very book in your hands RIGHT NOW, but unfortunately, things don't always go as planned. A great deal of work has been done on Frontiers of Eberron. We've commissioned maps, art, and the cover. We've been playtesting new mechanics, and I've run multiple campaigns in the region. Many chapters of the book have been completed. Unfortunately, for the last few months Frontiers has been on hold. Multiple members of my family have been dealing with health and life issues, and I've had to set things aside to lend a hand. The work that still needs to be done to finish Frontiers requires a period of intense focus; I haven't had that focus over the past few months, and it may still be months before I do. I'm just as excited about Frontiers as ever, and I will finish the book—but at this point I am predicting it will come out sometime in Q2 of 2022.

If you don't want to wait that long, you can get a taste of Threshold in the game I run for my Patreon supporters. Supporters have access to all of the previous sessions (and you can see a bit of one here), and ever Threshold patron has the chance to play in the monthly game! My patrons also select the subjects of the articles I write for this site, the next of which will be on The Mockery. With time as tight as it is, the support of my patrons means a great deal to me, so thanks to all of you who keep this site going!

While Frontiers is temporarily on hold, life continues to move on—and I'm finally going to my first convention in a long while! I'll be at Pax Unplugged from December 10-12th with my company Twogether Studios. I'm currently confirmed as a speaker on two sessions, and waiting to hear back on a few more; I'll provide more details a little closer to the day. And speaking of Twogether, we're unveiling our first non-print KBP product: the tumbler pictured above, bearing the cover of Exploring Eberron. It's a little random, but we love Tervis tumblers and we love the art from Exploring Eberron, so here we are! This is an experiment and will likely be a very limited edition, so if it's something you're interested in, now's your chance.

So unfortunately, for the remainder of 2021 my Eberron content will be limited to web articles and my Threshold stream. However, we've got lots of things we'd like to do with KB Presents in 2022, including Frontiers of Eberron and much more! So keep up with your adventures and I'll let you know when there's news from the frontier.
