⚙️New Mechanics Revealed! + Ratling Showdown! 5 Days Left!
about 1 year ago

Greetings, Backers of Darkness and Dilemma! It is I, Scribblegut the Third, update courier, rulebook defacer, and recently demoted “Rodent Relations Coordinator.”
Time is short. The rat is restless. And the campaign? It ends in 5 days! (Cue lightning and distant screaming.)
🐀 RATLINGS AT WAR. FINAL VOTE BEGINS NOW!
The previous name poll ended in an agonizingly close tie. After much squeaking and dramatic flailing, we’ve narrowed it down to the top 5 names.
We need your vote one final time to settle this once and for all. The winning name will be revealed in the next update... assuming the ratling doesn’t reveal it by writing on the walls again. It wasn't ink!
Let’s talk villainy. We’ve made some delicious changes from previous years you should know about:
🧭 Virtue is Dead. Long Live Notoriety.
We’ve replaced Virtue with Notoriety, because let’s face it: you’re no hero. † Scale: 0 to 20 † Some choices raise or lower your Notoriety. † Some choices are boosted (or punished) based on your level. † Reach 20 and you can reset it to 0 to gain a permanent stat increase. (STR, DEX, CON, etc.) A small price for reputation rehab.
🧪 Crafting Begins!
You can still find the occasional potion, but... you’ll now collect ingredients to craft the elixir you need. † The Covenborn excels at crafting. That's not mushroom soup in their cauldrons. † The Plaguebringer is great at finding extra loot. Because nothing says evil like DIY poison kits.
🧙 Henchmen / Party Members Revisited
Now powered by Energy, not random card draws. † Their abilities extend beyond combat and skill boosts † Expect perks like scavenging rations, curing poison, or divining the future. Who knew Carl the torchbearer had visions?
🦴 Minions: Your Disposable Workforce
Minions are separate from party members (henchmen). Use them to: † Aid in rolls † Shake down peasants for gold † Or... sacrifice them to boost your chance of success No emotional attachments recommended. It’s like family. But flammable.
📣 KEEP SHARING — WE’RE SO CLOSE!
We are this close to unlocking the Social Stretch Goal: ✅ New Hero Art at Every Level
This goal is based on shares, not gold. Now is the time to send your favorite post howling into the void.
👉 Share on Facebook | Share on X There’s only 5 days left in the campaign. Give it that final push like a goblin over a parapet!
🗺️ CAMPAIGN STATUS
Final vote for the ratling is live. The social goal is within arm’s reach. And someone taught the minions how to unionize. It’s fine. It’s fine.
That’s all for now, my beautifully devious backers. Vote. Share. Scheme. Sacrifice. It’s the villainous way.
I, for one, gave my last minion a thank-you card before feeding him to a giant worm. It felt right.

🧔 A Father’s Day Cackle + Wooden Minis, Rat Voting & Social Chaos
about 1 year ago
– Mon, Jun 16, 2025 at 05:44:58 PM
A Belated Happy Father’s Day, Dreadlords and Dark Dads!
It is I, Scribblegut the Third, professional calendar crawler, bringer of updates, and accidental father to a swarm of gelatinous cubes (long story).
To all the father figures guiding their spawn into villainy... we salute you! Now let’s talk about something you don’t have to raise: wooden minis.
🪵 WOODEN MINIS HAVE APPEARED (AND THEY ARE GLORIOUSLY POINTLESS)
Do they have in-game function? Absolutely not.
Do they look cool, line your desk with menace, and serve as tiny totems of villainy? Yes. Deeply. Profoundly. Unnecessarily.
With exchangable accessories you can swap and customize!!
These icons of evil are an excellent add-on, and they're here thanks to our wonderfully wicked friends at Corvid Arts. We met them in the hallways of Genghis Con as they were conspiring world domination with wood and lasers.
Their work inspired the villainous add-ons, and now... they’re even offering YOU a treat:
Our social-powered stretch goal is still active! When enough of you share this campaign, we’ll unlock More Villain Art for every character (in the App and Villain Codex).
That’s 6 glorious illustrations per hero, one for each level, waiting to be unleashed by your likes, shares, and sinister hashtags.
Yes, we’re using your dark influence. No, you will not be compensated. That’s how evil works.
🐭 LAST CHANCE TO VOTE: NAME THAT RATLING
The rat still wanders the halls. We’ve tried traps. We’ve tried flattery. He simply won’t leave until he has a name.
We’ll reveal the winning name soon... unless he does first.
🗺️ CAMPAIGN STATUS
More Villain Art Unlocked. Better Quest Planner Incomming. Rat name still undecided. And someone carved “Plague 4 Ever” into the breakroom table. Again.
That’s it for now, my collectible-crazed conspirators! Remember to vote, share, and place a tiny villain on your desk if it pleases you. I, for one, glued mine to a paperclip. It now rules my to-do list with an iron paw.

🐀 Name That Rat + Unlock New Hero Art With Your Dark Influence

Greetings, My Cunning Cohort of Chaos! It is I, Scribblegut the Third, loyal minion, reluctant rat-wrangler, and now part-time social media sorcerer.
I return with two mighty updates: One rodent. One mission. Both glorious.
🐭 NAME THE RATLING: YOUR VOTE IS NEEDED!
You all sent in some truly unhinged suggestions. We had to dig through plague puns, sewer royalty, and names that were legally too powerful to print.
After much arguing (and mild gnawing), we’ve narrowed it down to a few rat-worthy finalists all reworked to match the grim titles of our villainous cast.
Now it’s time to cast your vote and crown this pestilent prince.
👉 [Survey Link Here] 👈 (Click it, before he names himself. Then come back to finish this update.)
🎨 UNLOCK NEW HERO ART IF YOU SPREAD THE WORD
Now, this next bit is... unprecedented. For the first time, a stretch goal depends not on gold, but on your influence.
If enough of you share the post, we will unlock something truly beautiful (and mildly heroic):
New Character Art for All Heroes at Every Level (1–6)! That’s 5 new illustrations per hero, brought to life as they grow stronger (and become harder to kill)
This is a social goal. No dice rolls. No gold. Just likes, shares, reposts, retweets, smoke signals... whatever dark magic you wield.
(Spread it like plague spores in a poorly ventilated dungeon.)
Some Suggested Messages when you post: - Backed this amazing RPG calendar and now I want more loot. Help us unlock the good stuff! - Me pledge! Me want shinies! Come help us unlock more evil upgrades for Overlord! - Overlord say if more peoples back, we gets extra loot. Me approve. You join? - Me already part of the evil empire. You should be too. More backs = more shiny upgrades! - I’m in. And if you like dice, chaos, and daily adventure... you should be too. - Yes, I backed a calendar. No, it’s not normal. It’s way cooler than that.
🗺️ CAMPAIGN PROGRESS REPORT Stretch goals unlocked. Goals Added. More are brewing as 10 days remain. Scribblegut is still recovering from rat allergies
And that’s the update, my infectious little influencers. Now go forth! Vote! Share! Infect the algorithm with villainy! I, for one, gave the ratling a tiny cape. He ate it. I admired the commitment.

🐀 Results Are In... and So Is a Rat! Help Us Name Him!
about 1 year ago
– Wed, Jun 11, 2025 at 03:09:51 PM
Hail, Horrible Hordes!
It is I, Scribblegut the Third, minion, messenger, and part-time rat negotiator. I bring you two critical updates: one about dice, and one about a plague-bearing rodent who refuses to leave the breakroom.
Let us begin.
🎲 DICE DEBATE: THE RESULTS ARE IN!
The scrolls have been tallied. The shouts were heard. The goblins have stopped arguing (mostly).
And the verdict is... Mini Dice shall remain!
But fear not, lovers of clack and chunk — we hear you too. We are actively sourcing larger dice samples to offer as an optional upgrade. If our summoning rituals succeed and the test dice don’t explode or melt any interns, we’ll let you choose between Mini or Regular during the pledge manager!
A win for everyone... except the intern. Always the intern.
🐀 A NEW CHARACTER CRAWLS INTO THE CALENDAR…
Earlier today, we heard a clatter near the dungeon storage closet. Upon investigation, we discovered a ratling rummaging through the loot pile, mumbling about spores and “the perfection of plague.” Naturally, we gave him a character sheet.
With a 6th villain, though nameless, we get a new mini that will automatically come with the set of Wooden Minis Add-On.
This toxic little gremlin is sneaky, squishy, and delightfully infectious. He’s not officially on the team yet, though, because we have a problem...
❓ WE NEED A NAME FOR THIS RODENT.
His working name is... “Rat McRatface.” Yes. That was my idea. Yes. The Overlord is furious. So let’s fix this.
Submit your best names for our festering friend in the comments. We’ll choose the top suggestions and hold a villainous vote soon!
Think: creepy, clever, maybe even slightly tragic, or just... hilariously evil.
📜 His almost complete bio is below. Do not sniff it directly.
🗺️ CAMPAIGN STATUS Stretch goals still loom. Dice still roll. And the breakroom still smells like plague rat.
And that’s the update, my plague-curious comrades. Now go forth! Suggest! Scheme! Name that rodent with pride (and mild concern). I, for one, tried to train him. He bit me. Twice. I respect that.

Hmmm. The brothers don't usually venture far from their bridge. But shiny things await. Where do we go first?

🎲 Tiny Dice, Big Debate! Your Evil Input Is Needed
about 1 year ago
– Mon, Jun 09, 2025 at 02:05:34 PM
Greetings, Dice-Rolling Deviants!
It is I, Scribblegut the Third, scribe of sinister scrolls and self-appointed Lord of Logistics (I made myself a sticker).
Today, I come to you not with fire or fury, but with a question of great importance. One that has divided goblin dens and ruined at least two friendships in the Dark Citadel.
🎲 Mini Dice or Regular Dice?
In past campaigns, we’ve proudly included mini dice with every Quest Calendar (except for one). Why? Because:
They’re adorable.
They fit perfectly on a desk.
You can roll them during meetings without HR noticing.
But some of you bold and vocal villains have requested regular-sized dice instead. Something with more weight. More chunk. More clack.
This year’s design improves contrast and visibility, even for mini dice... but now, the choice may rest in your evil hands.
🗳️ Tell Us What You Think!
Would you rather keep the Mini Dice as a signature piece of this dark little desktop adventure? Or would you prefer Regular Dice — the kind that echo like thunder across your wooden table of conquest?
We continue our rise toward glorious domination! More stretch goals teeter on the edge of unlockdom. (Yes, I invented that word. No, I won’t apologize.)
And that’s the update, my delightfully opinionated underlings. Now go forth! Vote! Discuss! Argue civilly, or not at all!
I, for one, still use a d4 as a paperweight. We all make choices.

Comment to let us know how evil you are. Did you kill or spare the traveler?
