At this tier, you'll be listed in the credit sequence in our YouTube videos as a member of the Dork Squad.You'll also be thanked at the end of the podcasts when possible!

$3/moDouble Dork PowerHey, $3 is better than $1.50! You get all the benefits of the $1.50 tier, but we get twice as much money and you get to support us twice as hard.

One might even say very important.You'll get your name in the VIP section of the YouTube video credits and will always be mentioned at the end of the podcasts.Access to a 1/month Behind the Scenes podcast episode or similar content.Early access to our Patreon first shows like Descent Into Avernus, Old Gods of Appalachia, or Radiant Citadel, and more!

$20/moLevel 20 HeroWhoa! You made it to level 20! Congrats! At this level, you:Get all of the benefits of previous tiersGet to suggest a name for a legendary person, location, or magic item.

Get to suggest some details about this thing. If you wanted to have your epic Dragonborn Monk be a legendary hero, it helps if we have some details about them!

Put it on your resume. It can't hurt.*We'll work with you to build you or an idea of yours into our D&D Setting (or whatever game makes sense). This demon, devil, or monster will be a major threat for our heroes! While the interpretation will be mostly ours, we'll work together on what this new creature is all about. Are they here to destroy the world, or just own it? (Be sure to message Kelly here or on Discord with your ideas!)Choose this tier if our content is worth $66.66 to you! Or if you just like evil.Want an example of how this affects games? Take a look at Black Star, which was a patron-created entity for the Reign of Emrys campaign. Note: This tier is very flexible and is designed to give you a chance to throw your ideas at the party. Stat blocks, power ideas, and the like are appreciated, but will be adjusted to fit the game. In addition, for story purposes it may take a while to introduce your villainous entity. Don't worry: it'll happen even if you leave this tier. *it might hurt.

$100/moDivine PatronWow. You're divine. Truly. At this tier you get everything from previous tiers (except the demon from the Demonic tier), plus:You'll be listed in the credits as a Divine Producer! (if you prefer a different celestial adjective, let me know!)I'll work with you to bring a new divine being into one of our D&D settings. This can be a major new god, primordial being, or something even more alien. No matter what, the world will never be quite the same. We'll work together on the name, domains, symbols, and ethos of the new deity and make sure it fits into the game world. (Be sure to message Kelly here or on Discord with your idea!)Choose this tier if our content is worth $100 to you or you have a god complex!Wonder what divine beings have come before?

Sometimes all it takes to go from being a good storyteller to a great one is someone to listen to your thoughts. Through the wonders of internet messaging, I'll chat with you and help you plan your campaign, and offer you advice on storytelling!* Note: I'll always try my best to give you at least an hour per month or more, but please be aware that this doesn't mean I can (or will) answer every message immediately. Also, time zones are a thing and I do occasionally sleep.
