Everything we're forging, and where you jump in.
Every build travels one road, from a first idea to a sealed relic. The further upstream you back it, the more you save.
The ground floor
Before anything is designed, we ask the guild what to build. This is where the whole road begins.

What backing gets you
Questions
How do I know if a design is for me?
We share previews on the community feed before your first deliverable, so you can see the direction before you commit further.
When will a pre-order be ready?
It varies by project. Each card shows its phase and ETA, and the In-the-Works stage tracks live progress.
Can I refund at any time?
Yes, any time before you accept the first deliverable. After you accept, the build is yours.
What counts as the first deliverable?
The first tangible piece for that project, usually the initial patterns or a specific lesson. It is defined per project on the product page.
What if I'm not ready to decide?
There is a grace period at the first-deliverable milestone. If it lapses unresolved, your deposit converts to store credit automatically.
Can I use Gems or discounts on a pre-order?
Not on the pre-order itself. Pre-orders are direct purchases so the capital funds the build. Gems and discounts apply elsewhere.
How does the 2-Year Lowest Price Guarantee work?
Founders lock the lowest price for at least 24 months. If it ever drops below what you paid, you get the difference back as store credit plus a bonus.
What if a project is cancelled?
If a rallying project never reaches its threshold, every deposit is refunded automatically, in full.
Where do I see updates?
On the project card and the In-the-Works stage, plus the guild feed and Discord for backers.

No collections are vaulted yet. When a limited drop retires, it lives here for its owners and returns only on rare occasions.
