Franchise Desire / Question

This is posed both to the creation team as well as my fellow fans. I’m wondering if there are any plans / initiatives to franchise the world of Verra into the physical marketplace. I would love to see t- shirts, ashes labeled DnD memorabilia etc. Verra novels / playing cards (top desire) / board game, mugs, etc would be epic. From a business perspective there is the marketing bonus and from a non-business gamer perspective we just like to geek out sometimes. Are there already talks of this?
I would love to have a physical collector’s "node" sitting on a desk while leveling

Power to my fellow Paladins/Templars.

edit: oh and hoodies and beanies too
I used to have an Ashes of Creation hoddie. I wonder if I can still find it.
Well, we saw one of the Ashes Mugs in the latest livestream, while they had a little talk about the kinds of merch they're planning, so I think we already know the answer to this is Yes.
tbh i would rather have someone whose an expert at creating tabletops and a fan of the game to make a tabletop out of ashes over taking attention away from the studio
Oh, T-Shirts, Cups and so on - keep it coming.

1. Finding right vendor
2. Design phase and internal approval process. Give that 1-2 months.
3. Sample. Large quantity orders comes from China. Getting samples takes 4-6 weeks. + back n forth to get sample right. So add another 2-3 months here. We saw 1 sample version of the mug Steven was holding already (not final)
4. Large scale production. Another 4-6 weeks.
We'll probably see merch closer to launch. Easy custom things like lanyards, postcards can be done in the U.S and quick. But if you want custom board games, Verra shaped mugs etc, it will be outsourced from China.
Any regular MMO merch-buyers out there? What's the standard like?
I can't stand those totally generic mugs with a label slapped on them (just an example of lazy merch, I've seen Steve's mug.. generic it isn't!)
According to this post they have already signed a deal eCommerce & Merch sourcing that is coming 2024.
These are examples of what they had planned in 2021. No idea if they are still on the table though.
The dobby mug! I need!!!
This could be done easily be done with merch.
In regards to lore: This is something that I would want to see kept in Intrepids hand as too many people working on the lore tends to ruin it and I don't want a Marvel mess of a story just to make a franchise out of it.
As for board games: I can understand if they were to convert character, mobs and stuff from Ashes of Creation back to TTRPG assets and release those for people to create homebrew adventures around.
Playing cards and other types of board games: I don't really see a reason for that and would think that Intrepid in particular would do well to not sidetrack into these fields - unless they happen to create one or the other as a natural part of developing the core game, the MMORPG itself.
