It's the Cerberus, he protects, he attacks, and most importantly
He devours the souls of his enemies.

This half-human, half-goat Greek god brings the untamed energy of the wilderness to your game.

The Spool of Ariadne is inspired by the mythological thread that guided Theseus out of the Minotaur's labyrinth.
Our version extends this concept to binding creatures, altering destinies, preserving memories, and enabling swift movement across the battlefield.
It does a lot, but then again, it is a legendary item.
Hopefully you can weave epic stories with it (get it weave, as in weaving with a spool... I'll see myself out)
Enjoy!

Today, let's take a closer look at a figure who's as inevitable as taxes but way cooler and more mysterious: Thanatos, the God of Death.
If you're looking for a character who embodies the end of all things with a calm, impartial vibe, Thanatos is your deity.
In case you annoy him, Thanatos isn't just hanging around waiting for things to die.
He's got a whole arsenal of abilities to help people reach the afterlife. From knowing when someone's on death's...

It's for those characters who've got a cloud of doom hanging over their heads right from the start. Think of it as the ultimate "bad luck charm" with a twist.
Maybe not the opposite of the lucky feat, but not far.
Basically, if your character is always the one who draws the short straw, or if you're into the idea of playing someone with a bit of a dark cloud over them (like, literally born under a bad sign), this is your chance to lean into that. It's all about making the best out...

Hello good hunter!
Ever thought about having destiny on speed dial? Well, now's your chance.
The idea here was to explore the concept of fate and destiny in a warlock-y way.
This means you don't get exact control over the powers you bestow, which makes sense, seeing as you are borrowing the power of fate, not mastering it.
You'll also gain the abilities to hold spells, which is a way to fix the short number of spells warlocks are working with.

Hello good hunter!
We're about to drop some content that's so epic, it might just make the actual gods jealous. Or, more realistically, make them raise an eyebrow in mild surprise.
