FAQ: "Wayfinder" a Map-Making TTRPG in the Quill System
For the most up-to-date information about the status of our project, check our project updates on Backerkit Crowdfunding!

What is the Vast?

The Vast is an expansive wilderness that exists on the boundaries of the known world. Filled with strange plants, creatures, spirits, fae, demons, and enemies. A dangerous place, the Vast is not easily traversed, and Wayfinders are those who posses skillsets that allow them to find safe passage through the wilds.

What does "Collaborative Worldbuilding" mean?

In most TTRPGs, the Game Master will prepare a world for the players to inhabit, and will facilitate their adventures in it. In Wayfinder, players have far agency to be able to add their own spin on the world itself, and not just their character.

Game Masters still take the lions share of the worldbuilding, but players have more tools to take hold of the narrative, and add their own elements. Using the Encounter Dice, players can paint their exploration in broad strokes, that the GM will use as a foundation to add more concrete narrative atop.

When will my pledge be shipped?

Shipping for Wayfinder is currently planned for Fall 2025. We still have some writing, art, and layout to complete. Assuming everything goes according to plan, we air aiming to finish and head to printers by the end of Summer. Fulfillment will take place after that.

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
