Will Your Story Be One of Legend—or of Tragedy?

In this D&D campaign setting, you’ll explore the Magic: The Gathering plane of Theros, a world inspired by the gripping epics, unforgettable monsters, and rich mythology of Ancient Greece.

Set off on an epic voyage across the Siren Sea, where mystic isles hide untold wonders and mythic monsters lurk in the deep. Visit the necropolies of the Returned—where melancholy golden masks mark those who dared escape the Underworld. Or journey into an enchanted valley to join satyrs in their indulgent revelry.

From the starry realm of Nyx, the gods rule over all. They seek champions—heroes to enact their schemes and spread their ideals. But are their gifts ever truly free?

Inside Mythic Odysseys of Theros

Power & Piety

All heroes are born with supernatural gifts. Were they bestowed by a god? The gift of a sphinx? The choice is yours. Each option grants your hero unique talents—whether blessing or curse.

Legendary Character Options

Introducing two playable races: get up to mischief as a fun-loving Satyr or play a proud, lion-like Leonin.

Two subclasses also join the fray: Bards of the College of Eloquence are masters of rhetoric, and Paladins who swear the Oath of Glory dedicate their lives to heroic deeds.

Plus, the admired Athlete also enters the ring of possible character backgrounds.

Mythic Encounters

Kick off your campaign with a ready-to-play starting adventure. Players will unravel a mystery, uncovering secrets buried in the depths of the Underworld.

Beware the gorgon queen, Hythonia, and krakens eager to feed. Create climactic battles with detailed maps and stat blocks for mythic monsters. Discover treasures, from flying chariots to the spear of Heliod himself.

Playing Dungeons & Dragons

Become An Adventurer

Adventurers come in all shapes and sizes. Find one that’s fun for you.

A elvish cleric, driven from society for trespassing on tradition. A dwarven paladin, atoning for an ignominous past. The Player’s Handbook provides the skeleton for your characters. Flesh them out however you choose.

Join the Party

D&D brings people together and forges new friendships. Silly moments spawn inside jokes, moving battles leave treasured memories—whether in the heat of battle, embroiled in social intrigue, or solving clever puzzles, your party has your back.

Choose Your Own Path

The woods are growing dark. Behind a mass of ivy, you see the stones of a crumbling castle. What do you do?

In D&D, your options are limitless. Because the Dungeon Master, as narrator of your tale, can improvise in reaction to any choice you make, what happens next is entirely flexible. Do you dare go on?

Dungeons & Dragons Mythic Odysseys of Theros

As an avid Dungeons & Dragons player and Dungeon Master, I recently had the pleasure of delving into the Mythic Odysseys of Theros, the latest campaign setting and adventure book released by Wizards of the Coast. Drawing inspiration from Greek mythology and epic fantasy, this book offers a captivating journey into the vibrant world of Theros.

One of the most striking aspects of Mythic Odysseys of Theros is the richly detailed setting it presents. Theros is a realm steeped in myth and legend, where gods walk among mortals, and epic heroes rise to confront unimaginable challenges. The book beautifully captures the essence of Greek mythology, from its pantheon of deities to its larger-than-life heroes and monsters.

The depth of lore provided in this book is truly impressive. Players and Dungeon Masters alike will find a wealth of information about the history, culture, and geography of Theros, as well as its diverse array of inhabitants. From the bustling polis of Meletis to the rugged peaks of the Skophos Mountains, each location is brought to life with vivid descriptions and detailed maps, inviting players to explore every corner of this wondrous realm.

In addition to its evocative setting, Mythic Odysseys of Theros introduces a host of new character options and mechanics inspired by Greek mythology. Players can choose from new subclasses like the Bardic College of Eloquence and the Paladin's Oath of Glory, each offering unique abilities and thematic ties to the world of Theros. Additionally, the book introduces new supernatural gifts called "Supernatural Origin," which allow players to harness the power of the gods in their adventures.

The included adventure, "No Silent Secret," provides Dungeon Masters with a thrilling narrative set against the backdrop of Theros. Filled with epic quests, dangerous monsters, and moral dilemmas, this adventure offers countless opportunities for heroic deeds and memorable encounters. Whether leading a daring rescue mission or unraveling the mysteries of the underworld, players will find themselves drawn into an epic saga worthy of the heroes of myth.

Overall, Dungeons & Dragons Mythic Odysseys of Theros is a triumph of storytelling and worldbuilding. With its immersive setting, compelling characters, and exciting adventures, it offers players and Dungeon Masters alike a chance to embark on an unforgettable journey through the realms of myth and legend. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a newcomer to the world of D&D, this book is sure to inspire countless tales of heroism, adventure, and divine intervention.

The Theros setting is just fantastic. This book really thought of everything for creating a legit Greek Mythology setting adventure, focusing on heroic feats, a rich pantheon of gods who directly influence the world, and creatures and races that just fit.

The book starts out by introducing 5 new races, 1 new background, and 2 new subclasses. The races are all great, except satyrs are slightly overpowered since they have advantage on all saving throws against spells. The subclasses and background are excellent.

The bulk of the book is spent on talking about the gods. I was so impressed with how deep the book goes into each one. Each of the 15 gods has a section on influence, goals, relationships with other gods, forms of worship, myths, characteristics of the god's champions (alignments, common classes, cleric domains, and backgrounds), how to gain or lose the god's favor, ideals of PCs who worship the god, special unlockable abilities for different tiers of Piety, ideas for adventures based on a party who follows the god, ideas for adventures based on that god being a villain in a campaign, monsters the god uses to further his or her purposes, omens, divine schemes, AND a dungeon map of a place related to the god's worship, along with even more adventure ideas!

Even if you don't plan on running a Theros campaign, I was able to fully flesh out my own homebrew pantheon thanks to using those chapters as resources.

The book also has a chapter on the world of Theros itself, which is very much a Greek-influenced one, with philosophers, sacred forests, badlands roaming with minotaurs, and the sea itself, which is ruled by tritons and has many mysterious islands. It also talks about two new planes of existence, Nyx (the realm of the gods) and the Underworld, which has sections on adventuring beyond death.

There are 8 new magic items, all unique and interesting and probably fine to include in any D&D setting, not just a Greek Mythology one. There are also five "God Weapons"—super powerful artifacts that become more powerful the more pious you are toward the god they belong to.

There are a fair amount of new creatures to flesh out a Greek setting, including new types of hydras, harpies, chimeras, and giants. Lastly, there's a new type of enemy called a Mythic Monster that's even harder than a legendary creature, because after you kill it it enters a second "boss stage" where the objectives change and it becomes even harder to kill.

I can't recommend this book enough. It is so inspiring to me as a DM in many ways, and an incredible addition to my collection.

First, let me say the book has amazing artwork. I found it to have thought provoking content for the Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) player and dungeon master. They succeeded in building a rich and interesting world. The book is well organized. Quality was top-notch. I had no issues with the book itself.

For anyone not familiar with Theros, think of this like D&Ds take on Greek mythology. If you're thinking about giving it as a gift, it would be perfect for someone interested in that.

If I do have one point of feedback, I would have liked to see improvements in the book's monster manual. More monsters unique to Theros, especially for new characters to fight, would have been great. I would have also like to have seen different "end" bosses. At least for me, only one captured the sprit of a truly awe-inspiring boss from Greek mythology.

Overall, I love it. A great book for a D&D player.

I saw this product while browsing through dnd materials available on Amazon and, being a huge fan of both dnd and Greek myth, thought it seemed intriguing. In fact, I've been trying to develop a full blown home-brew Greek myth campaign for many years but have hit many proverbial roadblocks along the way.

When I saw this product, I thought that it might answer some questions that I've been trying to tackle in my own home-brew as well as provide some useful resources. It succeeded in the latter but not the former in my case.

What I expected was a Greek myth campaign setting that was actually set in Ancient Greece with the Olympian gods as the deities and all the bronze age works. What I got was a totally original Greek myth-ish setting that was apparently drawn from some Magic the Gathering resources. The map is original, the myths are original (though most are clearly based on actual mythology) and the gods are completely original. The closest thing to any real Greek mythology herein, are some of the monsters.

All that being said, this book is beautifully done. The art is tremendous (as it has been with most 5e materials) and the work put into the setting is quite good as well. The main setting map is a bit lacking and could easily have been expanded into either a poster or at least a full-leaf spread. Instead, you get a rather minimal depiction of a world that geographically, has not been fleshed out well. For some, this may seem like a benefit, as you will have plenty of freedom to add your own features. Another weakness is the lack of any bronze age weapon lists / rules. I'm assuming that all dnd weapons are allowed in the Theros setting?

So, if you like the idea of an original setting loosely based on Greek mythology (very loosely), this is the book for you. I gave it four stars because it is quite a nice book. For my purposes, it's probably more like 2.5 stars. If you are looking for Zeus, you'll need to go elsewhere.

I didn't know I needed an ancient Greek setting, but the more time I spend with this book, the more I enjoy it. I especially enjoy the presentation -- the art is phenomenal, and I'm really digging the art style that paints the stars of the night sky over the monsters and heroes of the land.

The pantheons are interesting, and for anyone who enjoys the richness of Forgotten Realm's deities it will give you even more ideas for how to put meaningful religious interactions and causes into your games.

Finally, I want to give two thumbs up for the representation in the art and prose. You'll find people of all colors and races, male nymphs, and though it took me about three reads to notice it, gay heroes, too! It makes the world feel more inclusive, and to me it sends a heartwarming message that magic and imagination belong to everyone.
