    Henchman: Get access to the donor-only section of autarch.co, where you can download the latest draft of the Player’s Companion and provide us with feedback, playtest experiences, and suggestions. When you've helped us make this the best supplement it can be, you'll get an electronic version of the final text that has the rules you helped refine, the tools and support systems for campaign play that you wanted to see, and your name in the credits as a Beta Reader. This version won't have art or layout, but if you like what you see as the project takes shape, you can increase your donation to one of the reward levels that does.
