Agon

In ancient times, poets sang of the feats of mighty heroes — revenge on monsters, the restoration of justice, the search for exceptional solutions, assistance with wise counsel, not to mention deeds filled with courage, valour, and fearlessness, which the... gods often considered audacity. In "Agon," you determine the fate of the heroes yourself, transforming a simple tale of their journeys into a legend destined to remain through the ages.Returning home after a military campaign, the troop strays from its path and finds itself on strange islands teeming with mythical creatures and dangerous villains. The people in these lands are filled with despair — the prevailing discord around them has deprived them of hope, and they have no choice but to rely on the whims of capricious gods…The heroes have been granted an incredible opportunity to achieve true greatness — they must restore peace to these lands, endure the trials sent by the gods, survive encounters with dangerous monsters, and, if successful, return home and immortalize their names.In this book, you will find:Rules that allow you to create great heroes and glorify their names by writing legends that will remain through the ages.Feats that will not succeed without the mercy of the gods, commitments, and pathos.Islands where the team will face gods, monsters, and humans.Competitions of art and rhetoric, blood and valour, craft and reason, determination and spirit, allowing the demonstration of passion and bravery.A guide for the voice of discord, creating a series of difficulties that the heroes will face.A celestial vault indicating the way home and reminding them of the gods' favour (or wrath).
