About

Thanks for visiting MetaMythos . Net.

MetaMythos, the brainchild of a group of ardent fantasy enthusiasts, was birthed in 1999 as a platform to showcase and explore creative depths in the world of roleplaying games. It served as a safe haven for those who dared to push boundaries and sought to add a unique flavor to this dynamic domain. However, over the past few years, the activity on MetaMythos simmered down to a low ebb. But now, in the spirit of rejuvenation and evolution, we’ve decided to scrub the old paint, dust off the cobwebs, and provide MetaMythos with a fresh, exciting makeover.

MetaMythos shares its origin with its sibling site, Basic Roleplaying.Net, and emphasizes the incredibly immersive art of world-building. 

A Unified Force in Roleplaying Games

Previously operating as three distinct entities, MetaMythos, RuneQuest RPG.Net, and d20 RPG.Net are coming together with the aim to kindle interest, inspire creativity, foster flexibility, and catalyze cross-pollination in roleplaying games. 

MetaMythos has always been, and will continue to be, the home ground for RPG campaign design and world-building, extending across a plethora of platforms such as Basic Roleplaying, Pathfinder, Dragonbane (Drakar och Demoner), Call of Cthulhu, GURPS, FUDGE, and many others. 

In our endeavor to stimulate the art of world-building and design for fantasy RPGs, we will strive to curate and bring you news and resources on a variety of topics – from the intricacies of map-making and the nuances of religion in roleplaying games to the enchanting realms of magic in RPGs and the captivating tapestry of cultural sources.

Goals of MetaMythos: Adding Depth to RPG Worlds

We’re setting our sights high for MetaMythos, with the primary goal of generating ORC License compatible RPG content and creating exhaustive mythological references. These resources will be invaluable tools for crafting game worlds teeming with captivating backgrounds and mythologies. We aspire to facilitate RPG campaigns and world design through our methods, techniques, discussions, and tools.

Interested in Contributing?

We’re always open to suggestions for improvement, so do share your ideas to make our wiki even better. Please let us know if you’ve noticed any bugs or if something needs fixing. 

Additionally, we’re looking for volunteer or interested writers and journalists to craft quality website pages and add new content related to game worlds, adventures, etc. 

Thank you for visiting MetaMythos.Net. We’re excited to embark on this rejuvenated journey with you.
