Description
"Five years ago, a thousand ships answered Agamemnon's call and departed Greece to bring about Ilium's ruin. The greatest heroes, the mightiest weapons, and the most mythical stories are somewhere else.
You are among who remains.
I am Homer, and I will sing of you, amongst Other Names."
Set in a fabled Age of Rhapsody — paying homage to the Bronze Age, Greek tragedy and comedy, and classical myth — Echoes of Fate is a homebrew Campaign Frame for Daggerheart exploring lies and prophecies, the making of myths, and what it costs to break destiny.
You are not the hero the epic was written for. No prophecy names you. No Muse has claimed your story...yet.
So what do you make of a life the songs haven't told yet?
If you are a fan of myth retellings such as EPIC: the Musical, A Thousand Ships, The Song of Achilles, come sit by the fire.
Some notes on the setting:
• The gods are present but distracted — drawing their eye may bring you greatness, or ruin. Or maybe you'll be drawn to the Mysteries instead?
• No prophecy protects you: your choices ripple outward, and could alter canon myths and even the course of the war itself.
• All stories are welcome, this table is LGBTQ+ friendly.
• New to tabletop, Daggerheart, or Greek myth? This table is beginner-friendly. And no Classics degree required, just curiosity.
EU-friendly hours (evenings except weekends where I can do mornings or early afternoons) or US- friendly (late afternoons/early evening).
Sessions can be weekly or bi-weekly through StartPlaying.com, at 20$ per session.
About me:
- I've been a Dungeon Master for almost 8 years and I have plenty of experience in guiding new players. I prefer Theater of the Mind with minimal VTT support.
- Your story will matter and I love a long, narrative background I can weave into the main story.
- I do character voices!
- I also do character artworks :D
Safety tools: Session 0, Lines and Veils, Consent checklist and X cards.
I prefer to be honest in advance: Echoes of Fate draws from real life in addition to myth. Slavery was present in Ancient Greece, as was mysogyny, war and violence.
You will be able to challenge these in-game through your character, or ask me to avoid mentioning them and I will do my best to do so.
