Update: The Manual of Aurania and The Libram of Aurania

Thought you all would like to know about these updates on this project.

Re-mastered Art
I am pleased to release our first remastered image from the Manual of Aurania - our Kickstarter scheduled for early 2020. This is a significant amount of work to curate the very original publication with all of its stunning original line art and OD&D stats, while recreating the original concept into a fully fleshed out 100 page sourcebook with remastered artwork and modern 5e game system stats. We hereby announce the World of Aurania - a collaborative old school map where you can fill in the gaps by submitting art, writing stories, fleshing out towns, or concepting original monsters. Replete with online editing tools where you can submit your work, get paid, share your creations, and earn points as the world grows.

Here is an example of the original line art by Troy Locker Palmer and remastered illustrations by the inimitable Mario A Barraza. There is so much more to be discovered as we comb through these ancient publications and bring them into the present day. Won't you join us?

Happy with the progress on the Libram of Aurania remastering. We will be publishing the original and a remastered sourcebook. Don't miss the Kickstarter in 2020! We promise old school goodness... Here is the never before published table of contents with some fantastic artwork from the seventies! Also super happy to introduce Todd Ulrich to World of Game Design. Thanks to Troy Locker Palmer for the creative mojo in the original and to Darrold Wagnerfor allowing us to bring this project to life. Don't miss the sneak peak in Illusionist Magazine coming in September!

  1. I did a search for "aurania" on KS, but it returned nothing. Was this KS ever started? Has this been published by other means?

    1. Sorry that I did not see this comment sooner. No as of today 7/8/2022 nothing has been done, no KS or other publishing. Someone did ask the question on FB a year or so ago, IIRC and it is still supposed to be published, but with no timetable or plan at this time. It is really a shame that it is not happening in a timeframe that we all anticipated.
