Once upon a time in Troy...

A campaign focused around the classical era Sparta. Not superheroes, but bloodlines with exceptional abilities. The spawn and offspring of the greek gods if you so wish. We will be going "over the top" with this one.

PC's will have wound-thresholds set at a basic 10 instead of basic 5, NPCs will be fragile little bastards with a wound-threshold set to 3 for most of them.

Extra actions will be at -3 instead of -6, healing will NOT be readily available though. Heavy wounds or worse will leave permanent effects behind.

Death will be largely optional, players who opt to have a char die will get the same XP-sum for the next character as well as a boon of some sort that fits with the way of the previous character's death.

The honorable man

Laerides is a ugly ugly man, who well earned his ugliness. A great warrior he had the gall to stand between Zeus and one of his distant female cousins. Thwarted, angry and amused Zeus cursed him so no mortal woman would ever want him.

... find Laerides a wife.

Laerides the sorceror, brother of Circe.
