As a studio run by creatives, it goes without saying that everything we do is 100% human designed, written, drawn, & more. We only work with artists who stand against AI, and choose all of our manufacturers carefully to keep our carbon footprint as low as possible.

We’re all set up and ready to see you tomorrow at @mcmcomiccon - here’s where to find us all weekend! Swing by for this year's brand new books, A FΓͺte Worse Than Death and Aquarium, as well as a visit to Jasper's Emporium - our very first vending machine packed full of brand new adventures!

Swing by all five stalls for a stamp, and then pick up your goodie bag from the DK stall. You'll be rewarded with dice, stickers, coins, and a special exclusive one-shot adventure to celebrate the launch of the D&D Encyclopedia... written by someone you already know and love ;) See you there!

What came first, the chicken or the cat? Born from an unlikely romance between Naif and a local tomcat (or was it the local rooster?), these chickittens have inherited the best - and strangest - traits from both parents. And the best part? They’re adoptable - because every party needs a mascot!

Meet Naif – Fawkes’s best friend, and possibly the strangest cat you’ve ever encountered. She may look like an ordinary (if somewhat poultry-adjacent) cat, but Naif knows more about what’s happening at the Harvest Bonanza than she lets on. Keep an eye on her - she might just lead you to trouble...

Meet Fawkes! Proud owner of the Knife & Fawke CafΓ©, accomplished baker, friendly cat-dad... and possibly the last person you’d expect to be asking a group of adventurers for help. He’s spent years living a quiet life in Little Bramble, but lately things have taken a distinctly sinister turn...

With strange goings-on at the Harvest Bonanza and an old problem coming back to haunt him, Fawkes needs your help. There’s just one small complication – he isn’t quite what he appears to be. Grab your copy of A Fete Worse Than Death todayπŸŽƒ crowandcrown.store/products/a-f...

As always, we're miles behind everyone else in making event announcements - but better late than never! We will be at MCM London at the end of this month and - even more excitingly - we'll have a big booth full of new goodies!

We’ll have copies of this year's new books, A FΓͺte Worse Than Death and Aquarium, and also brand new to Crow & Crown is Jasper's Emporium, a vending machine full of brand new adventures! We'll also have brand new pins and stickers; our army of baby crows; and all our other usual goodies.

In Little Bramble, fΓͺtes are all about tradition. But this year? Tradition is going straight to hell. Our newest adventure is here! πŸŽƒ Visit Little Bramble during its yearly Harvest Bonanza and enjoy all the traditional village games - just try to ignore that lingering smell of brimstone...

Exciting news - Herbarium is coming to @DNDBeyond.com! Add your foraged findings to your inventory, find and make craftable items with ease, and find Herbarium's new spells, subclasses, creatures, & more fully integrated into the D&D Beyond system. Even better - it's now also compatible with 5.5e!

Which of our children deserves to go to university was a hotly debated question, and the results were incredibly close! Juno raised Β£210.36 for his university fund, while Chloe just pipped him to the post by raising Β£230.60.

As a studio run by creatives, it goes without saying that everything we do is 100% human designed, written, drawn, & more. We only work with artists who stand against AI, and choose all of our manufacturers carefully to keep our carbon footprint as low as possible.

We also donate 3% of our profits to environmental charities - and have done ever since we started making adventures in 2015! Let’s keep our planet healthy for the next generation of gamers, and keep creativity human 🌳

Also on sale will be our brand new book, Aquarium, members of our baby crow army, plus some exclusive Jasper pins for the UKGE pin collective - we'll be revealing the design tomorrow! Come and say hi in Hall 3, just off of Cubicle 7 Avenue!

'The Floating Market' AD: Fen Inkwright @rosdottir.bsky.social Last illu I had the pleasure to paint for Aquarium this spring, Thank you Fen for giving me free reign with this one, despite such a bright cheerful scene being a bit out of my comfort zone <3 I feel like I've learned a lot from it.

Play as the Warrior of the Waters Monk and channel water to increase the power of your attacks, or summon a watery duplicate to confuse your enemies. It's just one of the four unique water-themed subclasses to be found in the book - alongside MUCH more!

It's your last chance to pick up Aquarium - late pledges close May 1st! This exclusive copy includes VTT tokens, digital art, wallpapers, & discounts on @drivethrurpg.com printed copies. Artwork @oliviahintz.bsky.social 🌊 Grab it here! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ros...

Mission complete - Aquarium is fully funded! Thank you so much to everyone who has supported, shared, and backed it. As for us... We're taking a well-needed break for the weekend and then setting our minds to preparing for MCM London and UKGE - will we see you there?

Don't miss out - there's just 24 hours to get your copy of Aquarium! If you were thinking of picking up our back catalogue, you can upgrade your pledge to get a copy of everything we've written for just Β£75. The back catalogue includes 3 rulebooks, 2 full adventures, and 3 >

There's only 48 hrs left to get your copy of Aquarium! If we haven't tempted you already... may we present Raska of the Emberwake Smithy, who'll forge any ore or scales you bring her into one of 18 unique magical weapons, armour pieces, or trinkets.

If you thought Aquarium was just about 'nice' rivers and springs... think again! Our Travel Complications chapter has the full rundown about how to introduce your players to acidic hot springs, biting insects, contagions, quickmud, and yes - even leeches...!

Take this thermal spring, illustrated by @eyeofthenewt.bsky.social. Some say a coven once brewed potions here, using the heat for their magic. The acidic mud bubbles and sometimes, bleached bones even surface before sinking back into the depths... Find it here 🐟 www.kickstarter.com/projects/ros...

Lurking beneath still waters, the njogel (or perhaps you know her better as the kelpie) waits - patient, watchful... and always hungry. Preying on the unwary, this shapeshifting river spirit is as dangerous as it is alluring; and once it has you, there’s no easy escape.
