The Cosmic Dragon Breviary was my first foray into these runic languages, so it's only fitting that my next major project after it expands runes for everylanguage in the game!
Whether you're a DM looking to fill your world with ancient runic lore and extraordinary monsters, or a player eager to sink your teeth into hundreds of inspiring new races, subclasses, spells, & more for your characters, this runic sourcebook unleashes endless possibilities for your epic adventures across the multiverse!
Thank you to all of you for supporting me since the beginning! I hope we can make even more memorable moments together. <3

The Pre-Launch Page for the Book of Runes is LIVE!

Hi, friends!
I'm so excited to announce that Spectre Creations is back with another (much larger) Kickstarter: Caliya’s Chronicle of Runes! Tentative launch date is June6th @ 11am EDT.
If you want to learn more about what's in store, check this out...
The Book Includes:
Over 350 magic runes—with lore for every language's runic history!
12 subclasses
Dozens of races and subraces
60+ terrifying monsters
Additional spells, feats, magic items, and more!
But That's Not All...
The Cosmic Dragon Breviary was just me dipping my toes in the water to get comfortable. This time we're diving in the deep end! We're talking custom dice, a mini, a runic rolling tray, usable fonts for every language, and tons of beautiful newly commissioned art!
See that dragon on the cover art for the book? That's a Dracolisk (dragon-basilisk hybrid), and I've got Eldritch Foundry on the case producing stellar minis of it.
Unique Fonts for Every Language
Some of you may remember the Draconic script I had designed for the CosmicDragon Breviary. That was only the beginning, because there are 17 more original fantasy scripts coming—from Elvish to Orcish, Infernal to Druidic, every standard 5e language will have its own thematic runic script!
And we've got loads of Stretch Goals planned—including more languages (which means more runes, more fonts, and more races)—to see if we can get some additional cool stuff in here!
This has been in development for a while, so I'm ecstatic to finally get to share it with you all. Make sure to follow the project, share it around with your friends, and get ready: Launch on Tuesday, June 6th!
See you soon, friends!

Cosmic Minions & More Release! + What's next? (Magical Runes?!)
over 2 years ago
– Mon, Apr 18, 2022 at 10:18:56 PM
Hello, friends!
I am so excited to say, the final piece of this project—the CosmicMinions&More PDF supplement—has been sent out!
This supplement adds 12 more monsters—aberrations, dragons, and humanoid NPCs—for you to fill out your cosmic-themed adventures.
In addition to tips on when and where to best implement these cosmic monsters, the book contains stat blocks for:
If you haven't pre-ordered it, you can still get it over on BackerKit! If you did pre-order this supplement, you should have already received (or shortly be receiving) your email that it's ready to download!
What's Next!!
My next major project is a book of magical Runes for 5e! This 200-250 page hardcover book will be coming to Kickstarter thissummer! It will include ~400 Runes for your games (which function like magic items to power up your gear!), as well as new subclasses, races, monsters, spells, and more for your table! 😄
And ooo, boy is there gonna be some killer art in this thing. I've got a couple early previews here, specially for you all!
And expanding on the Draconic script commissioned for the CosmicDragonBreviary, this book will feature a unique script for everylanguage. Here's a preview of the Elvish script:
All who ordered these—either via your pledge level on Kickstarter or via pre-order on BackerKit—should either have just received or will shortly be receiving an email notifying you that your downloads are ready!
There are three .zip files as part of this release:
The individual cards as PNG images: best for viewing on your digital device!
The print-ready PDFs in full color: best for high-quality printing!
The print-ready PDFs in black and white ("Printer-Friendly"): best for readability and conserving ink!
The PDFs are separated by dragon type, and are also organized into a collective PDF containing all the monsters, allowing you to utilize whichever format you find most useful.
Once you print the monster card or cards you need, simply cut out the card and fold along the dotted line! I recommend either printing on a heavier weight (thicker) paper than typical printer paper, or attaching the printed card to a 4x6" notecard to give it extra sturdiness!
I hope you find these cards to be a super helpful Quick Reference for running Cosmic Dragons at your table—I know I will! 😄
Quick Cosmic Minions & More Update
Now that the Monster Cards are done, that means just one piece is left. I've been working hard to get everything squared away with the cards and everything else, so I appreciate how patient you all have been. I anticipate having the Cosmic Minions & More supplement out in about 2 weeks, so sit tight! We're on the home stretch, and a dozen more cosmic monsters are coming at ya!
Thanks as always, friends. Feel free to contact me via a private message here or email at [email protected] if you have any questions, or you can leave any thoughts in a comment below!

Hi, all! I hope your 2022 has gotten off to a great start. Here's the latest on the two remaining pieces:
Cosmic Minions & More - PDF Supplement
Monsters are done! The final supplement will include:
All that's needed before final release is a bit of touching up on layout and art and I can get this in everyone's hands. As a little sneak peak, here's one of my favorites being released in this collection. 😄
After having tried my hand at these for a long time, I've decided to yield their design to someone with a bit more expertise. I've called in the wonderfully talented "Vall Does DnD" to assist here, and I'm so excited to get these out in the next couple weeks. I know these will be a super helpful Quick Reference for those running Cosmic Dragons at their table. 😄 Another sneakpeak preview for you here!!
Thank you as always, friends. Feel free to contact me via a private message here or email at [email protected] if you have any questions, or you can leave any thoughts in a comment below!
