Next Stretch Goal Down: Character Sheets!

The next stretch goal is down, giving us a customized spheres character sheet!
We created a spheres character sheet with the original Spheres of Power kickstarter, but spheres has grown a lot since then, not least of all with the creation of its companion system, Spheres of Might.
The PDF of the character sheet will be made freely available, but as a $10 add-on we will send you a package of 40 of these spheres character sheets!
Next up is the last of the add-on stretch goals, the GM screen. After that, it will be time to start increasing pagecount!
The Ultimate Spheres of Power Build Contest!

Some people have asked that we provide a more in-depth explanation for how building and using Spheres of Power works. I can think of nothing better suited to demonstrating how the system works than the ever so famous 'how would you build this character' challenge!
To do this challenge, please comment or put a link in a comment to the build you would make for the character onto this update before the end of Sunday, March 24th. At that point, we will choose the build we like best for the character to feature in a video about creating and rolling spheres characters.
In order to encourage creativity, we will also be using not 1, but 3 potential characters for you to choose from! You may make a build for any of them or all of them, so long as we know which build goes to which image. Custom drawbacks or talents are even allowed (as long as it's not too many), since showing off how customizable the system is is one of the goals.
Each build should include both a level 1 and a level 5 build (where they begin and in what direction they'll go), and should be done with a 20 point buy, and should stick to core Paizo and spheres content (as much as we like Akashic Mysteries and other awesome systems, it doesn't really help when trying to show off what's possible with the Spheres).
Without further ado, our contestants are:
Bakugou
from My Hero Academia
Storm
From the X-Men
Your Friend's OC
No one knows who this guy is yet, but dang it, we're all eager to find out.
Hero Lab Files and Deck PDFs

There have been a couple changes to the campaign rewards. First: Hero Lab files.
I was hesitant to make Hero Lab files part of the kickstarter, just because they're always the last thing to be developed and take a while to fulfill compared to the rest of the rewards, but several of you have asked about them and after discussing it with our developer, they're officially being added to the campaign!
We've made some new reward levels that come with the files, but they're also available as an add-on, so even if you don't care to change your reward level you can still add them in now or get them after the fact via backerkit.
We've also added an option to get the sphere decks in PDF form; it pains us that there's no 'affordable' option to get the complete set of spheres decks to you, but this way you can print them off at home and use them however you wish.
Thank you all for your feedback; hearing from you is how we can make sure we're getting you the things you're looking for in this campaign, and it means the world to us that you're helping us make this book a reality!
Next Stretch Goal Down: Sphere Decks
over 5 years ago
– Tue, Mar 19, 2019 at 04:54:36 PM
Sphere Decks are something we've wanted to do for a while, and have debated whether or not they'd require a kickstarter to make given how expensive deck-printing can be. Since we conveniently have a kickstarter going on right now in the form of Ultimate Spheres of Power, this seems like the best time and place.
Each deck will contain the powers and talents of a given sphere in a handy deck format, allowing for ease of collecting and growing powers, helping new players maneuver their abilities, and just the sheer fun of playing a sphere power as a card combo.
Each deck can be added as a separate $15 add-on, or the entire set of 20 (plus any additional spheres unlocked during this campaign) decks as a single $250 add-on.
Next up is new, updated character sheets, and tomorrow we'll upload what people are really waiting for; the stretch goals for increased page-count and other content.
Spheres of Power Support Pack

The first stretch goal has fallen, and the Spheres of Power Support Pack has been unlocked.
This package is designed to aid those rolling spheres at the table, and includes both a series of pawn-style miniatures for each of the SoP iconics as well as a series of sphere tokens for tracking whatever you might need, but designed to make using Prepared casters that much easier.
Thank you again for backing Ultimate Spheres of Power and helping make this book a reality!
