While the Player’s Guide has been available as a free PDF for a while, from Modiphius Entertainment, the physical core campaign book for Odyssey of the Dragonlords will hit stores in early 2020. Designed for 5E, the setting is a mash up of ancient history, high fantasy, and Greek mythology. The Player’s Guide will carry an MSRP of $12.99 and the core Campaign Book will carry an MSRP of $54.99 when they both arrive in February.
From Modiphius:
The Player’s Guide
Inspired by ancient Greek mythology, Thylea is a brand new campaign setting—a lost continent that can be seamlessly added to any existing 5E campaign. This book includes an overview of the history, factions, kingdoms, and laws of the forgotten continent. In this tome, you will learn about the gods, the titans, and the legendary Dragonlords.
The class backstories section offers guidance on the character-creation process, including potential names and suggested backstories for each of the core player classes. Plus, there are rules for two new player races native to the forests and the northern steppes: the Thylean Centaur and the Thylean Satyr. You can choose one of six epic paths which provide powerful motivations for your hero, making you a central part of the story.
The Campaign Book
At the dawn of time, a war between the gods and Titans left the world of Thylea forever changed. Thousands of years later, the first mortals arrived, carried by ship and dragon. The Dragonlords were the champions who overthrew the Titans 500 years ago and forged the Oath of Peace. But the power of the Oath has waned, and now the Titans seek vengeance. You are one of the heroes called by prophecy to end the conflict once and for all.
