Prepare yourselves, Mages. 🧙 There’s something strange about the carnival coming to Mythas next week in our newest Tales of Fablecraft adventure.
What's weird about the carnival? [carnival organ sounds] What's the adventure called? [organ sounds intensify] And what mysterious special guest wrote it? [the organ sounds are just ridiculous now]
Step right up as we reveal the who, what, where, and when of it all.
The next adventure is Object of My Affection, created by Felicia Day!
We hope you have your ticket for the upcoming one-shot presented by Fablecraft, Object of My Affection.
This strange and wonderful tale was written by Felicia Day, who you might know from The Guild, Critical Role, Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Return, and so much more!
We’re calling Object of My Affection a one-shot, though it’s on the longer side for a one-shot adventure. We’ve been playtesting it a lot internally, and it typically runs us around four hours. That might be one sitting for some folks, and others may spread it out across two or three sessions. That’s up to you and your group.
This tale is a little bit of a love story, a little bit hilarious, and only slightly creepy. Players will navigate a carnival, enter the Tunnel of Toortür, and meet a cast of characters as you unravel the mystery surrounding this collection of attractions.
Object of My Affection will be available in the in-game marketplace starting Thursday, September 26th, 2024, for $9.99.
Here’s what the adventure includes
Of course, Object of My Affection features a complete Game Master Guide by Felicia Day for GMs to lead their parties through the carnival and beyond–where that beyond is... we’ll keep it for you and your players to discover.
The GMG for this adventure includes some fantastic voice-over work, which we’ll detail in a moment, and a pile of wonderful assets for use both within and outside of Object of My Affection.
Those assets are:
- 4 Environments
- 2 Battlemaps
- 4 Characters and Creatures
- 6 Inventory Items
- 1 Music Track
What about that incredible VO cast?
Not only was Object of My Affection created by Felicia Day, but she also lends her voice to the Game Master Guide for your party’s listening pleasure. An incredible cast joins her!
This fun poster features the cast of voice talent who are bringing Object of My Affection to life.
Their work for this one-shot is special, and we can’t wait for you to hear all of next week.
We’re celebrating the launch of Object of My Affection with a special livestream
To mark the launch of this one-shot, Felicia Day is hosting a livestream play of the adventure. Obviously, if you’re worried about spoilers, you’ll want to steer clear. But! If you plan to GM this one for your friends, this stream might be a great place to see how a party explores the adventure itself.
The cast for this stream is also super fun! Please note that the cast is currently in flux and may not be final.
- Claire Purcell, Riftweaver’s Narrative Designer, as the GM
- Felicia Day
- Luality
- SWARM, who voiced Kai in our in-game GM demo
- Anne the Gnome
The stream is slated to begin on Thursday, September 26th, at 1pm PT on Felicia Day’s Twitch channel.
“What about the Brawler Collection?”
Yes! We hear you! And we have good news.
The Brawler Collection is due to release with Object of My Affection on September 26th. What’s taken so long?
If you don’t know this already, Riftweaver is a small studio. We have two folks who build the 3D VFX for our spells and abilities. Earlier this month, they got sick and had to take some time to rest and recover. That’s a big part of what delayed the Brawler Collection.
When it releases, it’ll arrive with some temporary VFX that we’ll be updating as soon as we can. We didn’t want to delay the collection anymore, so we’re delivering it next week. Thank you for your patience and understanding on this!
In case you missed it, we got to today’s news with some fun teasers
We’ve been teasing the reveal of Object of My Affection on Discord and our socials all week, but we figured it would be fun to share some of those teasers here with you for a good laugh as we wrap up this week’s post. Find them all below.
If you want to see these teasers as they are dropped, be sure to join our Discord and follow us on social.
See you soon, Mages!
