A project to make a FATE sourcebook set in the universe of the Divine Blood novel successfully funded earlier this year.
Earlier in the year, I ran a kickstarter project to raise money to purchase art for the first Divine Blood novel and it was successful.
That novel is now for sale at
Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006ESG092

The Divine Blood novel started out as an idea for a role-playing setting based on an older story I am/was writing. And now I'm hoping to raise money to produce art for a roleplaying game book.
I have most of the material in terms of both world description and system.
I am going to use Strands of Fate to base the game upon, with sidebars relating to other systems that a particular gamer might prefer to use. This setting is one of my neutral-system settings, intended for any gamemaster to be able to adapt to whichever system they desire.
However, to give an example of how to set it up, the use of the Strands of Fate system will be used along with discussions of Mutants and Masterminds, HERO System and BESM.
I have, across several files, I have already looked into 7 countries, 2 major extradimensional shards, 8 organizations and created rules for 13 powers in the FATE system
I also have campaign character creation rules for several in universe campaign type ideas ranging from supernatural slice of life to espionage and mercenary mecha combat.
There are already several backer-only updates available to grant more information on setting and there is a public discussion thread on the Strands of Fate website here: http://generic-rpg.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1003
the setting hasn't been playtested yet, but I am going to be looking for playtesting GMs soon, and expected the completed setting and rules to be available for playtesters in at most the two months this project will run.
What I'm going to need:
maps, one of the world, and perhaps others for other situations
mecha and vehicle designs
military uniform designs
images of Demon and God technology
action images
Backers will get to see some pieces of the developing game setting, and possibly some snippets of fiction as well as provide some ideas to add to the whole as seen by the rewards offered.
