The Looming 7th Sea Kickstarter Fund Drive. [CLOSED]

Lemme explain this one. 7th Sea, for folks who don’t know, is a Swashbuckling, Musketeers and Pirates and maybe a little Horror behind the scenes RPG that my wife and I used to play; both separately, and in the same campaign. I enjoyed it, she loved it. The Kickstarter for a Second Edition starts up tomorrow.

That’s not what I’m fundraising.  I easily have the cash I’d need to get all the books, no problem, no worries. However… if I can put together $500, I understand that I can add a player-character to that game world… and by GOD my wife’s favorite character would be perfect for that game line. My characters?  …Well, I had fun with them, and they were good characters, but they weren’t legitimately special like my wife’s best one was.

So, this is what I’m doing. On the left is all the cash I have at my disposal. I’m going to put up the button below. If you feel like buying my wife a present – and you do not have to feel obligated to chip in to buy my wife a present – feel free to do so.  If I don’t make it to $500 on this one, I refund your money. If they use up all the slots on the Kickstarter before I get the cash together, I refund your money. If you can’t be hassled with a refund, I’ll spend it on her for something else.  …A spa, or something. She could use a spa afternoon. Well, so couldn’t we all.

Oh, and when the Kickstarter drops: 7th Sea is an AWESOME game. I’ve been wanting them to Kickstart this one for, like, forever.

[UPDATE: It funded in moments, and the $500 pledge levels washed away like sugar cubes in a hurricane. I’ve already refunded everybody’s money.]
