My suggested rewards from Empire of Tears

As I am planning for Empire of Tears I have created my initial list of rewards that I would like to offer with this kickstarter. I wanted to take these one by one so you can understand my reasoning for doing these rewards.

Pledge $1 or more
PEASANT: All donors at this level will receive a personal thank you from Louis Porter Jr. on supporting this project and a computer desktop wallpaper background of the Iconic characters for created by the LPJ Design NeoExodus: A House Divided artists.

Reasoning: Since the $1 is lowest rate, we like to give you more than a simple thank you. I believe that if you give us money you should get something. 

Pledge $5 or more
COMMONER: As per the Peasant with the addition of all donors at this level will be listed in the game credits as a donor and will receive a playtest draft PDF copy of the first adventure of the Empire of Tears adventure saga.

Reasoning: I like letting people see what we get when the writer is finished.  When the writer is finished, it is just the start of the work for getting a project out.

Pledge $10 or more
IMPERIAL COMMONER: As per the Commoner with the addition of all donors at this level will receive a finalized PDF copy of the first adventure of the Empire of Tears adventure saga.

Reasoning: This is the basic cost of the first adventure which we are planning a at least a $7.99 cost so it is a good discount 

Pledge $25 or more
RETAILERS STARTER KIT EXCLUSIVE FOR NEOEXODUS: Please contact us directly to learn about the Retailers Exclusive reward we have for this kickstarter. This reward is also exclusive for retailers only. (This includes domestic US shipping - International customers please add $20 for shipping)

Reasoning: This is a offer that we created to help get retailer involved in our kickstarters while at the same time offering this a new line for Pathfinder for stores.  

Pledge $36 or more
IMPERIAL MAN-AT-ARMS: As per the Imperial Commoner with the addition of all donors at this level will receive a PDF copy of each of the 4-part adventures of the Empire of Tears adventure saga.

Pledge $45 or more
IMPERIAL SPECIALIST: As per the Imperial Man-At-Arms with the addition of all donors at this level will receive a PDF copy of the 16 page Empire of Tears adventure saga Bestiary.

Reasoning: I like creating monsters and we are doing this as a way to add cool monsters to the adventures to change up/swap out some of the monsters listed in the adventures. 

Pledge $60 or more (Limited to 30)
EARLY BIRD IMPERIAL NOBEL SPECIAL REWARD: You will receive all the rewards of Imperial Nobel ($75) which includes all the rewards of the Imperial Specialist, with the addition of all donors at this level will receive a black & white limited edition collected edition of Empire of Tears adventure saga AND a 7 die set of dice! That's D4, D8, two D10, D12, D20 and a custom D6. (This includes domestic US shipping - International customers please add $20 for shipping)

Reasoning: Personally I like give a reward for people who show up first and commit. Our true fans will support us early and they should be rewarded for it. Better still you get a set of dice WITH a B&W copy of the book in addition to everything else. It is a good solid deal.

Pledge $75 or more
