If you like your fantasy tabletop game to be full of monsters and creatures from myth and legend, then Mythic Odysseys of Theroscould be the ideal campaign setting for your next Dungeon & Dragons Game. Mythic Odysseys of Theros is the fourth new campaign setting for 5th edition (the fifth if you count the Aqc Inc. book, which you probably shouldn’t), and it continues the brand’s expansion away from the main Forgotten Realms setting. The other three campaign settings released so far are:

Eberron: Rising From the Last War Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount Guildmaster’s Guide to Ravnica

Fans of Magic The Gathering will recognize this new setting, as Mythic Odysseys of Theros comes straight from WotC’s other main product line. And, like the accidental second child of an already stretched and loveless marriage, D&D fans will have to put up with some of Magic’s oversized hand-me-downs. But don’t worry: those slightly worn-out jeans and unwanted, stained Converse All-Stars can find a new lease of life as second hand treasure. As we will see when we look at the top 5 reasons to add Mythic Odysseys of Theros to your D&D collection.

Naturally spoilers for this setting will follow, and so only Dungeon Masters and players who really know how to keep a secret should read on.
