Are we getting this as a printed adventure module? I would love that

So, I have the players guide and campaign guide. Are those now useless due to these updates books coming out? And I am thankful that there will be more. I hope the settlements get polished up with details and it’s cool to hear the lore is being refined.

Years back, I made a homebrew that was different reality that was very far from the continuity. For when it came to dragons... they were indeed wealthy but the obsession wasn't in the wealth, it was through the very people each dragon held as their very hoard themselves. Since in this world where gods or primordials had no real presence, they were the embodiment of either divinity or damnation, conquerers or saviors that pend on whom proved mightier. The dragonborns of many were the next of kin and each dragon ruled their kingdoms with either furious will or by gentle understanding. Red dragons ruled the forge mountain that stemmed deep into the very outermantle of that world, basking in metals many as they praise its own military. The green dragons ruled the forests and lead the elves and beastsmen alike, tending to the agriculture as well become hunters and bandits. The black dragons rule over the untended swamps with the grungs and plasmoids, gorgans and aboliths, worshipping only the wickedness of nature. Two white dragons rule the northern and southern peaks of this world. But both being twins they rule with stern discipline, raising barbarians, giants, trolls, orcs, all their lives until war indeed comes one day. And the ruler of the dessert lands of barren dust bowls are the worse offenders of all, they revel in unraveling ancient societys long past their reigns, using their knowledge in alchemy, the medusa's in the cover of storms hunt down the metallic dragons as a means of sport, even gem dragons were not safe from them. This world I called droyd is one that has only thing. Humans are nearly extinct, magic itself if earned must become a religious practice as a pilgrimage, to earn the favor of these rulers to weild magic. Should a dragon also die in this world, the dragon born whom proves itself in ritual combat triumphs becomes the new lord, but its a very rare.

Why would you need to make rules for 5.5E, it's supposed to be backwards compatible so you don't have to?

I make my own campaign settings but I really do love using Grim Hollow for subclasses, backgrounds, spells, transformations and the grievous wounds. I've been using a combo of Grim Hollow, Steinhardt's Guide to the Eldritch Hunt, Bloodpunk and Grizelda's Guide to Ghost Hunting along with my own homebrew sanity system. It's been a great tool for my own gothic horror and dark fantasy campaign so I'm really looking forward to these new books coming out.

Feel somewhat upset by this announcement. Like previous support of the Player's and Campaign Guides are lessen by it. Even more so by the DnDBeyond announcement video for the Grim Hollow: Player Pack, which has Valikan Clans content as part of it. Yet we have yet to receive the Kickstarter rewards for it.

Sounds cool! Can't wait to g3t my hands on it!

I'm worried that no mention was made of the Advanced Background System. I personally really like that system and use it in addition to the standard background as Career system. I hope the Advanced Background System doesn't get lost in the revamp. Its a really cool system that works on its own as a fun additional source of adventure hooks and earned bonuses.

You guys are Melbourne based right? do you have any places that stock your books?

I remember years back on a campaign that to this day still blows my mind on with how truly interwoven they can truly be in a setting with a unhinged dm. Lasting for two whole years we among our eight members had to investigate a southern empire that ran the largest salt mines in our very world to find out what was happening to wizards across the world. Turns out... it was a cover for the grandest of contracts involving mindflays, night hags, liches, A ELDER ABOLITH, A ancient blue dragon and not just one beholder but four in disguise as Adventurers. Even the prince was a cut throat in the mist of it all as everything was all connected to the dreamscape, a plane where certain dreams may become vivid reality. They too were involved in the dreams to take the world through a land of gold, or by pouring unto ours a near endless stream of salt through a hovering plane door. Which kept splitting into other doorways, and even a legion of maruts got involved to find the culprit at the heart of all these devilish contracts. Wizards of all life became unwilling slaves, the people unjustly thrown to prison to be harvested for nightmares, mindflays feasted to hearts content to keep Adventurers from memorizing their tasks with constant mental attacks. The damn abolith in the astral planes keeps the party from full rest with otherworldly horror. Best damn story i ever got to be apart of

Ooof. I'm debating if i really want to buy this since i haven't run Grim hollow yet...

Are we ever going to see Grimm Hollow resources designed to be compatible with other systems?

Fantastic video.

I just pitched the Aetherial Expanse campaign to my group and they're so stoked!! We start tomorrow. I bought the entire campaign back in 2022 and received the PDF's monthly. I see that later you released it as a kickstarter. Since my PDF is from before the kickstarter, I'm wondering if there was any updates or changes that I don't have? Thanks for the video! edit: I got the 500th like!

I'm obsessed with Grim Hollow as a setting, it's my favorite 5e setting by far! I am so excited to explore more of Etharis, especially my favorite region; Ostoya. Though I also can't wait to just explore the rest of the continent. This is very exciting. :)

Hell yes! 🤘🏻⚔️👹 Very excited for this!!!!

This is going to be so good!

Please go the love of god bring Grim Hollow to Foundry VTT as modules!

Well, I know what I'm spending on this Halloween season! That expanded campaign book is pretty much exactly what I've been hoping for since...well, since I got the original campaign book! (Here's hoping, perhaps, that some of those GenCon adventures make their way towards purchasability as well, and perhaps someday full adventure paths as well; both the video from two weeks ago centered around Ostoya as well as the Burach-centered campaign dealing with collecting the relics of the Gods so as to reverse the world circumstances that permit the existence of the Great Beast were very interesting.) I like the idea of suggestions as to how to play in various places along the timeline, as well, since different ages of Etharis's history really suggest like they could lead to different "moods," and one of the most common emotional reactions to the "decaying grandeur" of dark fantasy is to imagine what it would be like to see the world as it was prior to the collapse.

Just for the purpose of clarity - does this mean that these versions of the guide are essentially replacing existing guides? Are they made for the new 2024 ruleset in mind - and if so - will things such as subclasses stop being based on 2014 rules? For clients with existing player and campaign guides - are the changes possibly significant enough to warrant purchasing these new books? (asking in good faith as I currently do not own either the player nor campaign guide but I do have the Monster Grimoire)

While I love Grim Hollow, I have no interest in going to 6e. I understand why they're doing it from a business perspective. However, I was hoping for another Regional specific book. Ill still probably buy it, but not what I'm looking for. I was very intrigued by a recent video they did discussing how two factions had been in constant struggle for control over a region and how we could elect to support one side , or to play the both in an attempt to assert ourselves as the ruler. I was really hoping for more of that.

So ready - amazing news!

A ShadowDark version would be LEGIT!!

So glad i only recently paid a load of money to get your books delivered to EU only for them to become outdated a few months later. Yay.

Just got my Grim Hollow books last week. Will no doubt be supporting your kickstarter, but man, that timing. 😅

Vtt support this time I hope?

Oh. I thought this was about Dark Sun.

This looks awesome. Do you think you could have pledge tiers to come with older grim hollow books. Especially old campaigns? Or even have them as add ins.

dude, I can't wait!!!!

The Grim Hollow setting lends itself nicely to make a lot of supernatural mysteries encounters. I like putting my players in haunted locations or towns and regions with different types of supernatural mysteries where they have to figure out what's going on before they can fight the monster. Similar to a certain mystery show with the same name. I would love some more engaging rules/systems focusing on investigation and solving mysteries. These could perhaps also be utilized in political campaigns set between nations in Etharis.

I love this SO SO much!! GH has always been my fav campaign setting and I've been immersing myself in the lore for years now. While I love the original book, the GFG team has matured so much over the years and your writing, art, and content staff is such a crack team that I know this new book series is going to be epic. I cannot wait for Oct and to get my hands on the new books! Excited to see Valikan Clans this year and just got my Citadel of the Unseen Sun Slip case. You all continue to put out quality product and I cannot thank you enough for your dedication and passion to the craft.

Grim Hollow as a universe slaps and that is an absolute fact. So so pleased that the campaign and players’ guide are getting updated ‘cause you can see the love and the solid concepts and the *character* of these classes and place and people, so to have more of that with Grim Hollow’s current standards of production? To die for, keep at it team!

While these do sound like great changes, I am a bit disappointed that my books will be outdated soon and they haven't even arrived yet... I ordered mine last year as a Valika kickstarter add on...

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!😂

Any update on the European distribution centre you mentioned in a previous video? Be nice if the UK and Europe could buy the books without paying more in postage than the value of the actual product

this is everything i've been asking for with the future of grim hollow! so excited!

Fault (noun): responsibility for failure or a wrongful act: A mistake, an error. Implying Grim Hollow was a HUGE mistake. I love it.

I live in the UK which means I have no idea what the heck Grim Hollow is. Because we can't get it here in any affordable fashion.

Lets go, cant wait to see how they can improve or clean up the lich.

I'm cautiously excited. I love Grim Hollow. The transformations are actually what got me into D&D and TTRPGs in general, and I 100% want to be able to play as a Fzeg. That said I'm not looking to hand WotC extra money at the moment and would rather support diluting their market share. I hope that the new options will still work with original 5e and are easy to port over to ToV and DC20.

Meh

I'm glad to see updated books for Grim Hollow! But I'm even more stoked for future adventure modules!

cannot wait for it !

A little vein

This is gonna be great

Will you be putting any more Grim Hollow on D&D Beyond?

hoping for more extraplanar lore, it was very odd to have Fiend and Fey transformations but essentially zero information about how those beings functioned in Grim Hollow

I am so excited for this! I’ve ran two whole campaigns in Etharis and just coming to the end of a third. I would love to see a version of the fiend transformation without the contracts. Maybe a daemon!

Yep I can't wait for this!

i supported the first kickstarter, wild to see how it was grown
