Sol’Kesh is Coming to Kickstarter: Exclusive Esslinter Creature STL Package for Our Readers!

Sol’Kesh, an ambitious bestiary and world-building project by illustrator Terry Maranda, will be launching on Kickstarter soon. To promote this launch, an exclusive Esslinter creature package has been prepared for our readers. This special preview is available for free and offers an early insight into the world of Sol’Kesh, a project three years in the making.

Sol’Kesh is an ambitious project that breaks into three main components: a Bestiary book, an art and story journal, and a set of 3D-printable miniatures. These elements bring to life a rich, imaginative world, rooted in speculative evolution and crafted with love for the tabletop roleplaying community.

The Esslinter, one of the many creatures from the Bestiary, is an eerie, eel-like predator that stalks both the claustrophobic tunnels and deep waters of the Blackwells. Known for the unnerving sound of claws scratching across stone, the Esslinter drags itself through the dark depths, terrorizing prey with its specialized pectoral fins and serrated tips.

As part of this exclusive package, readers can access 5e stats, a 3D mini STL, craftable item card, and a TTRPG token for the Esslinter—perfect for adding a new level of challenge to your adventures. Download the package here.

Terry Maranda, the creative mind behind Sol’Kesh, has a rich history in the TTRPG industry, having worked with Modiphius Entertainment, White Wolf Publishing, and Blizzard’s Diablo 4. With Sol’Kesh, Terry has taken on the challenge of building a new world from the ground up, blending elements of evolution, fantasy, and 5e mechanics into a stunningly crafted universe.
