About the adventure

In the darkest moments of Aktios, brave volunteers from the Misithian extraplanar force will come to the rescue. This mission is not one that is meant to be survived. The Aktians, a devout ancient greek-esque people have been living under an infernal apocalypse for two years. Everything has been laid to waste. The Misithians are the most powerful people on the material plane, with science fiction like magic. After years of the Misithian extraplanar force engaging infernal forces across the cosmos, the astral galleon Galant Entropy has been deployed to Aktios for its 20th deployment. The galleon has a bad reputation, and the nickname bad luck gem 21, as missions have a tendency to go wrong. This story has been told once from the Aktian perspective, and this time around it will be told from the Misithian's. The plot and structure is set in stone, and the campaign will be viewed through the dwindling forces of the Misithians across 7 parties. Each player will make a Misithian character, and an Aktian character to replace them when they eventually pass. The campaigns will end when there are no more Misithians left in each party.

Game style

Theater of the Mind

“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
