Shirts

Folks, we have shirts. This year’s design features the jungles of Haven, overlooked by Mt. Hood. The front design was created by Drea and Kelly, and the back design was created by Drea and Ace.

 

Swag

Speaking of swag. We have some delightful things to share with you!

Suncatchers

Kelly “Rayne” Coston has been hard at work making some beautiful swag for Mysterium this year. First up are Haven suncatchers. These measure 3.5” and are UV printed on acrylic sheets. Perfect for a tree ornament or for hanging in the window.

Lanyard Charms

We have three lanyard charm designs for you this year. The Black Ships sigil, a Compass Rose, and an MTA Orange Cone. These measure approximately 1.15” and are great for lanyards or zipper pulls.

We will also have a postcard pack of four with some Haven art, metal bookmarks featuring constellations, magnets featuring some cute Haven animals, and of course, enamel pins.

December/January Creativity Prompt Winner

The prompt was Tradition, and there were some fantastic submissions!

The winner for this round was Belle / Bellachellaluna’s story – https://archiveofourown.org/works/78610191

Please keep up the amazing work with those! You guys really are amazing and it’s so fun to see what you come up with.

Whew! That’s it for now. More updates are coming soon. Have a great week everyone!

Submissions Reminder

A quick reminder that submissions are still open for both shirt and pin designs. Be quick, though, because they are both due by February 27th!

There is still some time for event submissions, and those are still open as well! Do you enjoy diving into the various animals in the Myst universe? Or you have an idea for what your dream Age would be like. Maybe you enjoy cooking and have thought of some recipes that the people of Riven might enjoy. So if you have a fun idea you’d like to share, please submit it!

That’s all for now, but we have more great stuff in the works that we will be sharing with you soon.
