Richard Garriott’s Shroud of the Avatar isn’t just engaging in cross-promotion with Star Citizen; starting today, Portalarium are also teaming up with Visionary Realms to help promote the Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen Kickstarter campaign.

If you’ve supported the crowdfunding efforts of either Richard Garriott’s Shroud of the Avatar or Brad McQuaid’s Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen, the devs have an offer for you: back both games and get a special cross-game reward. Starting today, fans will see the cross-promotion pledge tiers for both games, Pantheon’s on its Kickstarter and SoA’s on its website. The reward is a cloak in each game emblazoned with the symbol of the other game.

The cloak reward — which symbolizes community between players, developers, and even games — is just the beginning of the collaboration between Visionary Realms and Portalarium. McQuaid stated, “The evolution of how MMOs are made is happening right now. We’re getting back to having the gaming community deeply involved in how the games are not only funded, but designed. A collaboration like this one only makes sense to further strengthen that growing community that involves not just the players and backers, but the developers as well.”

Pantheon is, contra the selective play options offered by Shroud of the Avatar, a full-fledged MMORPG…or it will be, assuming it makes its $800,000 funding goal. Right now, it’s a bit over a third of the way there, with 22 days to go.

There are a few more details available on the Pantheon Kickstarter page. Basically, if you back both games, you’ll get a cloak to adorn your character with in each game. The cloak in Shroud of the Avatar will sport the Pantheon crest, and vice versa.

And wouldn’t you know? The latest Update of the Avatar features an image of the cloak you’ll receive in Shroud of the Avatar:
