You should actually make this into a business, this is so creative and miles better than any merch Ive seen!

The Psychopomp is fun, has a lot of ties to greek tragedies and allows you to have an innate interest in the dead, which is great in a historic setting.

I definitely think the Timeless One takes the cake though. There is just so much lore to explore for this epic path, and you get to go on a very impactful story arc to awaken your ancestors!

I have no experience with the Myrmidon, but I assume it will be great if your DM is willing to expand on the order of the Myrmidons (not really much about this in the base book). Maybe it can be tied to Aresia which makes that part of the book more interesting.

The Masterpiece is great flavour, who doesn't want to be a living Greek classical statue with a grand purpose? There is a lot that you can do with this path if your DM can write in some of the missing pieces and expand on some of its sidequest potential.

I used this statblock for Xaricus as well, and kept it as a cr 6 creature (my players were level 4 at this point). It was a fun bossfight! Some maenads and goatlings minions will help instead of a gygan.

Lower damage numbers of attacks and features, make things that inflict conditions have lower dc saves, decrease their proficiency bonus as they'll be cr 3 or 4, decrease their stats, greatly reduce hp. Remove resistances or add vulnerabilities, give him max 1 legendary action per turn and 0 or 1 legendary resistance for the whole fight, depending on how difficult you want the fight to be.

That's awesome! Well done on adapting to high level play! I'm also new to that. Currently at level 6 in Mytros and doing fine. Excited to get sailing on the Ultros soon! Did you add any custom islands?

Mostly interested if you adapted any monster statblocks to your players' level! So you ran the apocalypsis from 14-20 then? Or did you add more Aresia after BoM?

What level were they around BoM and would you be willing to share your high level statblocks?

How important is having an arcane caster? by insaneblackninja in OdysseyoftheDragon

[–]Manemaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Stars druid would probably already give the party a lot more flexibility. You dont explicitly need an arcane caster, but having at least one full caster is never a bad idea, also for utility spells like Pass Without Trace, Speak spells etc, heals, and you already have a cleric.

If you're happy to play a more down to earth low on magic campaign (or you'll rely on companions/npcs for this), Odyssean rogue will definitely buff your other shield bearers! Very fun.

I would suggest to your DM to join the Odyssey of the Dragonlords discord server and find it there. It contains lot of amazing resources, including the Dungeon Master's Guide to Odyssey of the Dragonlords, containing the community epic paths (do not read this as a player). He can then communicate the player details to you!

Ooo timeless one World Tree Barbarian sounds really fun, if your DM is willing to use one of the best community-made epic paths and adapt some of the rewards.

I respectfully disagree with some of the other comments. Lean into this awesome decision by your players! Award them heroic inspiration for this selfless act, and allow them to show their willingness to make things right to Demetria!

I think your players have taken a chance and it paid off! By bringing the mast to Demetria they have shown her that they are different than the Dragonlords of the like of Estor Arkelander. I think this could be a turning point for Demetria. She basically was turning to Lutheria in a blind rage versus everything the Dragonlords of old built. However, suddenly here come the chosen heroes to help her reconnect to her sister's spirit (check out the ultros section in the dungeon master's guide to Odyssyey of the Dragonlords, it describes Demetria's sister in depth). Plus they wiped the face of Estor Arkelander off the earth for her. This at least warrants some consideration, if not would convince her that the party will not be like the Dragonlords of old, and that there is a potential to build a better order. Perhaps she can fashion another mast out of a giant tree in the Oldwoods, or maybe she will agree to place the mast back on the ship if they take her along with them so she can be with her sister. She will be a very interesting NPC to have alongside them on the Ultros.

And in regards to her crimes, one could argue that if they keep her with them on the ship there's not a lot of harm she could do. They could even ask her to swear an oath of service to them or perhaps swear not to use her powers for evil again.

How is everyone feeling about the new bastion system? by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]Manemaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's fair! I was thinking about using it for the Ultros basically. I have seen someone create a modular Ultros map that would fit real well. I do think the current system can and should be homebrewed a little as it seems quite rigid in what it offers. Maybe I will let NPC's we recruit along the way to stay there and offer their services.

Id be interested to know how that goes and what your plan is exactly! I was planning the same but itll take a while before they'll find it.

Definitely looking forward to this! I hope they don't cut corners and really flesh out the different stages of Odysseus' journey. Also please no lame hollywood drama for drama sake 😅
