World of Monsters Bundles

African Monsters is the latest in our Legendary Bestiaries series, some of which have explore worlds of pure fantasy while others delve deeply into the legends and lore of the real world and its cultures. In addition to offering our brand-new African Monsters bestiary as a standalone book, you also can get our World of Monsters Bonus Bundle pledge level that includes the new bestiary alongside Asian Monsters, Latin American Monsters, and Mediterranean Monsters! If you don't want the whole bundle, you can select the PDF, softcover, or VTT for each one individually as add-ons.

In these three additional volumes you'll find over 400 pages of incredible creatures from India to Korea, Morocco to Malta, and Puerto Rico to Paraguay on top of your amazing African Monsters bestiary, with creative teams deeply rooted in the culture and history of each region! Pathfinder 1E & 2E and D&D fans can add on our beautiful Boricubos: The Lost Isles campaign setting (see below) to bring an even bigger world of adventure to the torrid zone of their campaign world in PDF or softcover, and 5E fans can upgrade to the Deluxe World of Monsters with our beautiful leatherette hardcover edition of Boricubos: Latin American Monsters & Adventures! 

Of course, this is a fantasy adventure game, and sometimes the world is not enough. In the immortal words of Spinal Tap, "This goes up to ELEVEN," so we are offering an incredible bundle of eleven incredible bestiaries featuring over 1,300 monsters from the ocean depths to farthest space, sparkling fey realms to mechanized wastelands and beyond! Get all eleven books in PDF, print, and even with a Deluxe 5E print option for Boricubos and the fabulous Faerie Bestiary! You can grab any of these beautiful bestiaries individually in print or PDF and most for your favorite VTT as well!

Because game systems have slightly different books available, this bundle is not available for Tales of the Valiant and has several Pathfinder options:

• Pathfinder First Edition: Replace Hoard Monsters with an NPC collection (Pirate Codex or Unrighteous Villains), mythic monster upgrades (Path of Dragons or Path of Villains), or any one of our Mythic Monsters books! 
• Pathfinder Second Edition: Replace Alien Bestiary with the fabulous Faerie Campaigns, Boricubos: The Lost Isles campaign setting, or Heroes of the Wild class compendium.

Egyptian Add-Ons

Egypt is certainly a part of Africa, and we'll be offering special PDF, softcover, and VTT options for adventures set in a fantasy version of Egyptian lands. The Egyptian Adventure Bundle (available for 5E and Pathfinder 1E) includes over 100 pages of exciting supplements for your campaign:

• Beneath the Festered Sun (3rd level): A celestial conjunction, a dying curse, and an immortal consort threaten doom to a decaying city in this investigative adventure.
• The Lost Library of Thoth (7th level): The wisdom of ages can be yours as you seek a trove of forgotten secrets, magical mysteries, and tests for mind, body, and soul.
• Shrine of Serpents (9th level): The cult of Apep the Devourer has risen again, and the sands are stained with blood if you cannot stop their rampage. 
• Treasury of the Pharaohs: Over 30 marvelous magic items fit for campaigns amid the dust of empires, from the scarab scourge and dune trap javelin to the map cartouche, dynast aegis, and alabaster icons of Bast!

VTT Options

Choose Your Items on Kickstarter; Choose Your System in Backerkit

The African Monsters bestiary is available for D&D 5E, Pathfinder First Edition, Pathfinder Second Edition, and Tales of the Valiant. When you make your pledge, you choose the items you want here on Kickstarter, and whether it's your base pledge or an add-on item, it will show you the systems that are available for that item (including game system and also, in many cases, virtual tabletop system), but you don't select your system yet. 

When Backerkit surveys come out right after the campaign, you'll have a choice of system for each of your items, so you'll select which one you want then. If you are a fan who plays multiple systems, just select an extra copy of your chosen item(s) in the Kickstarter Add-Ons feature for each system you want to add. When your Backerkit survey arrives, you'll be able to choose the extra versions that you want! It's that easy!

Shipping & Fulfillment

1.  How will files be sent? All completed PDFs will uploaded to Backerkit and available for download from your free account there as soon as surveys are finalized. We are already working on the survey so it should be ready to send within a week of completing the Kickstarter campaign. 

2.  What are International Shipping Rates Going to Be? Shipping cost is based on total package weight, so it depends on how many items your pledge includes, but we are working hard to keep shipping as low as possible. For backers getting just African Monsters and no add-ons, international shipping is likely to be between $10-20 (even less to the UK).
