AAW Games has launched a Kickstarter to fund Rise of the Drow: After the Fall. Set in the same world as the award winning Rise of the Drow, this campaign consists of two volumes packed with player options and 5E underworld adventure. The project funded in its first few minutes and you can reserve the Player’s Guide and After the Fall adventure softcovers (with PDFs) for a $66.00 pledge or score just the PDFs for a $34.00 pledge through June 18th. Expected delivery is March 2026.
You can check out my review of Rise of the Drow for Pathfinder 1E from all the way back in 2018.
About the project:
Rise of the Drow: After the Fall is a groundbreaking 5E setting and campaign that flips the script on traditional fantasy narratives. Set in the shattered Underworld city of Holoth —now reborn as Hopeholme under the control of the Coalition—this tale unfolds not from the perspective of the heroes, but from the so-called enemies: the drow and driders left behind in the aftermath of Rise of the Drow. Designed for 4–6 characters starting at level 1, After the Fall lets players choose their house, background, and class as they step into a world of political intrigue, dark mysteries, and desperate power struggles. No prior knowledge of Rise of the Drow is required to enjoy this standalone campaign. This epic is presented in two essential volumes:
• After the Fall: Player’s Guide – character creation, house lore, and setting details
• After the Fall – full-length adventure campaign spanning the Underworld’s tumultuous new era Forge alliances, reclaim lost legacies, and shape the future of a broken world—this time, from the shadows within.
Key Features:
• Immersive Underworld Setting – Explore the ruins of Holoth, now Hopeholme, under Coalition control.
• Full Campaign Adventure – A complete 5E narrative filled with intrigue, betrayal, and richly developed NPCs.
• Player’s Guide – Build detailed drow or drider characters with dynamic house and social structures.
• Exclusive Backer Content – Early digital access to STL miniatures, side quests, and lore supplements for Kickstarter supporters.
