About the adventure
📜 If you are reading this, then you already know that you're special. You have survived things that others did not. Something that seems obvious to you, have befuddled those around you for generations. Magic, swordplay, tactics, diplomacy, song, or even your connection to something older than these mortal pursuits has as easily to you as the fish to the sea. This is not an accident. You are a Hero. Be it by birth or fate, you've known this and if the people around you don't already, then they will soon. My hope, is that you're one of the ones we need now. The Dragonlords are no more. The Oath of Peace that has kept the Titans and the Gods from tearing each other apart for the past 500 years is ending. War is coming to Thylea. This is a war that the Gods are ill-equipped to win. It will bring doom or enslavement to the Twin Titans for the rest. The people are terrified -- and they have every right to be. Unless, of course I am correct. If you are interested in hearing more, meet me at the Sour Vintage. There is a difficult task that requires the might - and the rewards - of a hero. 📜 ******** This was the message sent out across Thylea. A small group of strangers met at that famous Inn and began a quest that has seen them rise as heroes and become the target of the Twin Titan Gods: Sydon, Lord of Storms and his sister-wife Lutheria, Goddess of Death. They now sail the treacherous Cerulean Sea in the company of Gods, Giants, and more -- gathering allies, knowledge, and weapons to aide them in the coming battle that will decide the fate of all... 🐲 Odyssey of the Dragonlords is a campaign inspired by the myths and legends of the Ancient Greeks. Featuring a campaign that takes players from 1st to 15th level (with optional content to extend the game to 20th level) and written by writers and game designers behind hit RPG's such as Dragon Age: Origins, Knights of the Old Republic, Neverwinter Nights, and Baldur's Gate. 🔮 The world of Thylea is a place across a stormy sea, with its own gods, its own magic, and its own rules. Oaths are sacred, rituals have consequence, and reputation and is everything.

About me
I'm Chris, and I love doing this. I think rules are neat and there to be used and modules are fun and the product of a lot of hard work, but I've always been much more interested in the stories that find their way into being by virtue of creativity and dice coming together in fun and dramatic moments. So come hang out, create a character, and discover a story that we'll end up telling together. *** I sometimes post things on BlueSky. I don't really use any other social media these days: https://bsky.app/profile/christhewicker.bsky.social. **** I'm also available for events and games in the local Lexington, KY area!

How WickerGames creates a safe table
Short Version I'm not here to run an edgy table, or to make anyone feel uncomfortable or belittled. I expect everyone to behave like adults who have come over to friend's house for dinner. ******** Longer Version - Lines & Veils are welcomed to be discussed before the game begins. Players will also be provided a google form version of the Monte Cooke Consent in Gaming checklist. - My personal Lines & Veils are: Lines - No sexual assault of any kind will be depicted by the players or the GM. Veils - Explicit sexual or romantic content will be handwaved or treated in a "fade-to-black" manner. - A 10/15-min breaks is taken every 1.5-2.0 hours regardless of total playtime. - Any homebrew rules will be discussed ahead of time. - Access to D&D Beyond, Campaign Discord, and Consent Checklist will be sent after players have reserved their seat!
