Ulysses Lied
Ulysses and his Crew pillaged the Mediterranean Sea without mercy, stealing treasures and enslaving its peaceful peoples.
His ship bore no flags and the Marauders’ faces were concealed. But the lost songs of the Sirens tell of a small band of heroes whose goal was to overthrow Ulysses and put an end to his raids, but the legends do
not say whether their plan succeeded.

Odyssey Black Tales is for 1 to 7 players with an original set of rules compatible with 5e, Old-School Essentials and Mörk Borg.

You’ll play as part of the Crew answering to Ulysses,  the biggest liar in history, and serve in his small army of Marauders. Will you partake in the
sacking of the Mediterranean Sea, or will you risk your own life in the attempt to protect the People of the Sea?
