About the adventure
In the region of Aetolia a small kingdom of Korens has seen a massive uptick in harpy attacks. The harpys raid the small farming villages daily. The king has made a call for aid and will pay handsomely to see the problem and their leader taken care of. The players are an established party and have decided to take the job. This is a one shot written by Stefan Terry broken into smaller sessions that has been adapted to my custom Greek setting. A world where all the myths are history. Limited races and no clerics. Limited races include: Humans, several varieties of Nymphs, Tritons, Medusa, Minotaur, Satyrs, Dragonborn, and Warforged. Complete guide will be included on the discord. The game will be played in Foundry VTT, accompanied by a voice call in Discord. During the game, it will be used alongside Theater of Mind to provide a full image of any events and situations that might happen. Artwork, soundtracks, and battle maps will be provided by the DM.

About me
Hello Epic Heroes! My name is Alex, and I've been running TTRPGs for about 2 and some change years now and playing for four. I deeply love all things storytelling. I especially love telling stories that make people feel and think about things inside the worlds of fiction. I want to give my players a place to tell the stories they want. To be transported to another world full of life and wonder for them to explore and learn about. My day job is as a mechanical engineer, and I am a Greek mythology nerd. All my dnd games are run in a homebrew world based on ancient Greek myths. I’m also queer, neurodivergent, with ADHD and dyslexia. I take safety and respecting people's identities very seriously.

Creating your character
We’ll be creating characters either before the game begins or together in session 0. We will go over the campaign and setting to clarify any questions in session 0, and then we proceed into Character Creation and integrating your character into the setting and story. Characters need approval from the DM before continuing to the game. After our group meeting we will meet One-on-one with me where I'll help you create it using Foundry VTT. Characters will start at Level 5, using 2014 rule set and standard ability score generation (either point buy or standard array—your choice). The player races are limited in this setting. The document of the available races will also be in the discord. We will also be using the piety system by J. J. Crowley with some exceptions the document will be included on the discord. No Clerics. I also always have premade characters waiting and ready to go.
