Description

Welcome to the city of Mytros, largest city from Arcanum Worlds' new Odyssey of the Dragonlords setting.

Arcanum Worlds is James Ohlen, Jesse Sky, and others who had worked together at Bioware, or in the video game industry.

They've released a free players guide, as well as a very successful kickstarter - here's what they say about it...
"In a land where even the gods are bound by oaths and prophecies...

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. Poets will sing of your deeds for centuries to come... if you survive."

You can get the free player's guide at DriveThruRPG - www.drivethrurpg.com/product/2…

or at Modiphius, who they've partnered with - www.modiphius.net/products/ody…

The kickstarter for the campaign book ends in a few days [as of May 13, 2019] - www.kickstarter.com/projects/a…


I've worked with them to create various maps for this setting, and will release more maps as the products they appear in are released.

I had a great time working with them and look forward to more projects in the future.

I'll keep you posted. Cheers, J

thanks watcheye

I try to imagine being in the places I map.

Almost more like I'm exploring a place, than drawing it.

I postponed this comment for too long ! It is a gem ! You know I bought the book just to have your maps and I do not regret it WARNING : I might copy and paste this post a few times in the next minute ... number three, it is not the same book but the top tier was cheap in comparison to buying your maps alone so, win win

It's like you don't sleep and keep drawing and drawing, and still having a clear mind of how making an artwork shine !
I'm ridiculously jealous …

Great work! to say the least ^^
Despite my personal despair, please keep it up, you're inspiring

LordVurtax [2019-05-14 02:33:36 +0000 UTC]

Really want to thank you for making this available as you have. Running a setting right now where the ruins of a more ancient culture of Sea Elves mysteriously disappeared and sometime afterward a more Renaissance Age one has reclaimed their lands (both are basically Greeks just of different Eras) and stuff like takes a load off my shoulders in wanting to give the party some old greek-style city to explore rather than just generic town #5.


So essentially, this place will be known as the city of Areopagus in my own campaign. I imagine the players will take a visit there in a few months.


It goes without saying that this is beautiful in it's meticulous design and attention to detail. I especially love the disarray of building along the river between the two elevated points in the city.

I'm currently doing some more maps for Arcanum for this setting.

and one is an undersea location. So you might be interested.
Check out the kickstarter, which ends in 48 hours.

LordVurtax In reply to SirInkman [2019-05-14 15:56:54 +0000 UTC]

I've been debating throwing money down on it. It'd definitely be cool to have but I have no time to run it. Though it would definitely make for a great resource.


So yeah, I'll probably decide within the last few hours of the campaign.


Looking forward to what you put out next.

Thanks Timo

Well, there are lots of close-ups covering most of the map.

And this version is pretty big.


If you want it larger, you'd have to get in on the kickstarter.

And that ends in 48 hours!!!
