We are working with Pat to create events located inside the twilight faerie world of "The Fae" -- as well as another one that starts at a unremarkable inn inside a small farming community.

Interesting.

I thought the original plan was to chase the Mind Flayer through the planes of existence.

However, looks like the partnership with Patrick Rothfuss (started with Kvothe's Bloodless) is taking things in an unexpected direction.

Are there RPG sourcebooks with monster stats for the critters in this setting? Or is everything just in the novels for now?

The Fae is a demi-plane and so is Pat's more mundane world. They are chasing the mind flayer through these planes -- and then on to more in 2018 and 2019. Clues about those planes were dropped in 2016.

There is no sourcebook...other than what Pat and I come up with.
