Odyssey: Game Master's Guide to Campaign

The Game Master's Guide to Campaign features a wealth of information supporting six levels of play, from the introductory "Starter" level through rules for epic level campaigns and sports games. This hefty primer for Game Masters will guide players through character creation, running effective encounters, planning adventures, and more.

The enormous, 320 page Game Masters Guide is the ultimate companion to Odyssey. The guide includes information on: player races and classes; world-building tools and tips; game master advice; equipment catalogs; adventure assistance for every book in the Odyssey line; conversion notes for adapting the Palladium Fantasy RPG from Rifts Earth to Odyssey Earth; the entire Northern Gun campaign trilogy OGL, and much more.

A complete campaign toolkit designed to get your imagination going, Odyssey is perfect for game masters of all levels of experience. With a flexible framework for adding or removing elements as you see fit, the possibilities are as limitless as your imagination!

The Odyssey™ is the most comprehensive campaign setting ever created. Not only does it present a playable fantasy world complete with a full history, geography, and calendar, it also offers unique insight into the process of building worlds: from adapting real-world history to modeling mathematics. This book is the first in a series dedicated to enhancing the flavor, detail and ease of use for GMs running adventures set in this campaign.

Through the design of the Odyssey campaign game system, we've sought to create a rewarding experience that is fun for everyone at the table. The game is unique in that it skillfully weaves many familiar elements of popular roleplaying games into a distinct tapestry: a setting with elements of Greek mythology and modern horror, a core mechanic focused on teamwork rather than personal accomplishment, and a fast-paced combat system designed to mimic the escalation of real-world action.

Contains: the complete setting of Odyssey (a world rich in fantasy, history and adventure); 8 new basic classes; 11 new prestige classes; over 55 character kits; over 80 feats; over 100 magic items; over 400 spells; gods and their worship for each pantheon from Greek mythology, Celtic custom, Egyptian ritual and Norse legend; time-travel options and creatures from the realms of fantasy.

A Game Master's guide to create worlds and run a campaign. It offers tips on creating places and regions, cities, towns, and villages; inside buildings and dungeons; underworlds; conflicts and wars; castles, keeps, towers, tombs, and other special locations. A starter adventure is included.
