Enter
The
t the heart of the Kingdom of Astra lies Veloras, home to the fabled Tower of Aeon. Once a year, during the Blue Lantern Festival, its doors open, calling forth those bold enough to face its trials.
If you choose to enter, peril will be happy to guide you. Shadows unearthing your deepest fears. Sirens singing of your strongest desires... Only those with strength, cunning, and unbreakable will can reach the top.
You don't have to face the Tower alone. Gather your party and make your ascent—your choices will determine your fate. But beware: allies today may be rivals tomorrow. Only one can claim the Tower's ultimate prize.
And once you step inside, there is no turning back.
Will you ascend as one of our legendary challengers, or carve your own path through the Tower?
The Sky's Forsaken
What is hardship to one kissed by lightning? Born in the storm-wracked village of Aurevia, Nariko has weathered every trial—a dead mother, a drunken father, a name spoken in curses, and a best friend lost to fate. Marked as unlucky yet refusing to break, she has fought, clawed, and survived, as if the storm itself wills her forward.
Now, the Tower calls, and luck alone will not be enough. The deeper she climbs, the tighter its grasp, whispering promises of power and doom alike. Will Nariko defy fate and carve her name among the Champions of Aeon, or will she fall, swallowed by the very destiny she has spent her life outrunning?

The Game
Game Feature
We've hand-crafted multiple campaigns and six original characters for a quick and easy start (or love one of the characters). From flirtatious troublemaking bards, to hothead dragon rebels, to know-it-all supports, to mysterious masked rogues, there's a character that suits most.
But don't let that crate your creativity. Build your own playable characters and experience the Kingdom of Astra and all its secrets through a unique perspective.
Game Feature
Not ready to commit to a six-month long campaign? We get it. Don't worry, we've written the tales of Astra with both casual and hardcore players in mind.
Whether you want a single intense session or an epic multi-part adventure, the choice is yours. Our debut, hardcover campaign book consists of multiple, action-packed 5E compatible one-shots so that you can steer your adventure in whatever direction and length you'd like.
Game Feature
What if the greatest threat wasn't the monsters—but your own party?
The journey you're about to embark on is nearly impossible without a trusted crew by your side. You'll need to strategize and cooperate to solve the Tower's puzzles and battles. You must climb together.
But one small thing will decide how close you keep your friends: only one of you can become the Champion of Aeon.
Be the nice guy or set pitfalls for your friends. The choice is yours. That is... until it's not.
Game Feature
The journey will not end here—this is only but the beginning. Whispers of Taiji: Ascent of Aeon is the first step into a world far greater than could be covered in one book.
With an ever-growing library of stories, campaigns, and secrets at your fingertips, we won't stop until there isn't a stone in Astra left unturned. That means more campaigns, more lore, more characters, and more experiences.
Will the Kingdom of Astra ever make sense? One thing is certain—the Tower is just the beginning, and your journey is far from over.
