Why do the gods in Greek mythology turn into such weird things to attract mortals? According to Apollo in the Trials of Apollo books, Zeus once turned into a shiny amorphous blob for a woman. Like, what the hell?
Who wouldn’t want to be seduced by a shiny amorphous blob?
Fair point
Basically a plasmoid
Plasmoid bard
Oh gods...
Now I want to play a campaign that’s like a bunch of Greek gods but in their weirdest forms.
Zeus is the plasmoid bard, Dionysus is a little kid brewing tons of alcohol, that sort of funny stuff
Sign me up! Imma play Poseidon as some dude that just randomly talks to sea animals and sinks ships when he gets angy.

Hi there! My name's Elk. I'm NoiSilverheart's doppelgänger. I'm a demi/grayromantic, socially awkward Okie who may or may not be a pyromaniac. *random confetti blast*
I'm a warlock of the Archcrone, and my patron is TheFriendlyArchfey. I was nicknamed AchatesCervus8337 by VitusW and given the titles "Swashbuckling Scorcher", "The Unpredictable Jedi", "Burning Fury of the Ancients", and "Combustion Knight" by DrummerBoyDragonSlayer.
Very true. I don’t know as much about it as I should, but I’ve always wanted to read the book of the dead.
If you wanna know more but like the Percy Jackson format of things better, why not check out the Kane Chronicles?

another one of my favorite gods/titans actually I think is Epimetheus, the Titan of afterthought. He gave all of the animals all of the stuff they needed to survive on their own, but forgot about humans and had nothing to give them. He’s silly.
Hi Archfey! I actually don’t know that one but now I really like him. Big animism fan over here.
Assuming you’ve read the Iliad and the Odyssey, how do you feel about the story of Troilus and Cressida? Personally I think it’s horrible Iliad fanfiction where Shakespeare casted Achilles terribly
I know the general plot of the Iliad and the Odyssey (mostly) but I haven’t read them mostly just because I can’t find a copy anywhere and or I just spent money on other books, unfortunately. But whatever you’re describing sounds terrible.
anyways, what do you think would be a cool monster from Greek mythology to add to fifth edition? I think Either Scylla and Charybdis or the Stymphalian birds.
So…I have an offer. Who’s interested in hearing it?
speak
Remember how Elliot made hero forges of people? What if i made DND characters based on each user?
If Arch isnt an archfey warlock or feywanderer ranger, I’m rioting

I’ve tried reading them but the writing style isn’t my favorite. I liked them when I was younger tho, I just don’t remember much from them

Scylla and Charybdis would be difficult but fun. I think making Circe a statblock would be interesting too. Or maybe the man eating horses from the Heracles trial

A cool monster would be talos. Or typhon. Or the hekatonkeirs
Absolutely. Maybe also statting Achilles’s talking god horses? Or ooohh Paris’s bow
