Looking for fans of Greek myth to join my three players in a free-to-play campaign set in the Labyrinth of Crete! We are 4 sessions in and one of our players had to leave for family health reasons. The campaign story follows heroes of myth who seek to escape the Labyrinth and rescue Athenian tributes. We are seeking players who will be committed. The campaign will take an additional 6-11 more sessions.
Time: Friday Evenings at 7 PM EST, every two weeks (3 hour sessions), with a ten minute break midway. Our next session is on February 5.
System: 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons
Tech: Discord (Voice Chat), Roll20 (VTT)
Rules: No racist, homophobic, or otherwise offensive remarks (including aggressive backseat driving, lengthy rules-lawyering, etc.) Players indicate what classes they want to play, I create a list of characters from Greek myth matching those, and we customize from there. Only the backstories are pregenerated and those are flexible in any event. Example: Player asks for a druid or paladin. I create a list of character backstories and templates with suggested race/class/background for Memnon (Aethiopian Paladin), Periclymenus (Hellene Druid), or Melampus (Egyptian Druid). Characters will start at Level 3 and be based on Greek mythological characters. Right now we have Cadmus (a dragonborn paladin), Theseus (a monk), and Cyrene (a beastmaster ranger). We use the Supernatural Gifts and Piety bonuses from Mythic Odysseys of Theros, but reskinned to fit the ancient Greek setting.
Gameplay: A mix of roleplaying and combat, with occasional puzzles (so far including decoding, and riddles).
