Defy the Gods is a game of sword & sorcery seen through a queer, decolonized lens, set in an ancient world that you build at the table. Venture into this world as titanic forces fight over it—gods, rulers, beasts, spirits, sorcery and death itself. Gain incandescent glory and cursed power. It’s inspired by all the weird moments in Conan the Barbarian, Clash of the Titans, Beastmaster, and Princess Mononoke. Character options include a Sword, Sorcerer, Mystic, Sailor, or Wolfling.
This is a playtest of a game that is pretty far along. Some mechanics may change during play, but the game will remain recognizable.
Each session is scheduled to run for 4 hours. If everyone agrees, I’ll record them.
There will be 6 sessions in total. Being able to attend each session is ideal but not required. You must RSVP to each session you wish to attend.
The Gauntlet Community Code of Conduct will be in play and safety tools (Script Change and X-Card) will be in use, as well as the Open Door policy.
