The king of the ring is back and he’s fixed on keeping his crown!

It has been almost two months since the last public update for the Pugilist. Since that time my Patreon backers have had the chance to read and playtest the changes that have been made since then and vote on additional archetypes for the class. To celebrate the final Pugilist archetype ballot closing and to prepare for the full release of the Pugilist in the coming months I wanted to have one last opportunity to receive feedback from the public.

In addition to gaining access to exclusive content, previews of the Pugilist, and access to votes on the content I work on, my Patreon backers have also helped me to purchase original art for the Pugilist. We currently have several completed pieces and several more sketches being turned into completed pieces by artists we have reached out to. I am hopeful that by the end of May all original artwork for the Pugilist will be completed and we will have an announcement about where the completed Pugilist can be purchased!

If you’ve been following along with the progress of the Pugilist and you want to make sure you get alerted when it’s complete, please be sure to follow this blog, subscribe to our subreddit and, best of all, become a backer for our Patreon! In addition to being the first to know about the finalized and fully original art-ified Pugilist, Patreon backers will continue to get previews of upcoming content for the Pugilist and other projects. Starting today, Patreon backers even get access to an exclusive Pugilist Fight Club – the Whiskey Fist!

And with that, I give you…

Hey there! If you’re just reading this for the first time, or you’re reading it again, you will be happy to know that the full version of the Pugilist class is now available as a Pay What You Want product on DM’s Guild! Older versions of the class have been removed from the blog to comply with the rules regarding content posted to the DM’s Guild – you can find the full class here!

Also, in other news, don’t totally freak out when the blog goes silent over the next couple of weeks. I am off on a birthday month international adventure and the blog will resume when I return on the 20th!
