A woman stands upon a ship, her hair waving in the wind. Next to her, she gently pets a large, docile, dragon-like creature with soft fur. The text reads "Numenera: Discover wonder within the Ninth World," and "I just backed Numenera: The Amber Archive on Backerkit!"

With every stretch goal we unlock, every backer of Numenera gets a FREE sticker!

How many will we unlock? Well, that's entirely up to you. Spread the word about this campaign to keep the stretch goals (and free bonuses) flowing! Just look at what we've unlocked so far!

Three small plants -- one in a red pot, one in orange, and one in a glass container -- sit in the sun. Behind them is a piece of art depicting rabbits.

In a somewhat Roman, somewhat desert landscape, a woman adorned in red and blue,jewels and accessories stands, looking out confidently towards the viewer. Her guards and advisors circle her, defering to her. Behind them all sits a winged, monkey-like creatureโ€”not dissimilar to a gargoyle. Is it her pet? Or an assassin?
