The Muses of Creation The Muses of Creation

Consult one or more Muses. State your question, roll the Muse Dice
and interpret the answer. If you can’t, move to an adjacent result. Try to
embrace the weird. It’s not just weird: it’s mythical.
Example: Darren wants to manifest a Name, Form and Domain. He rolls a 4 and a 1,
which gives him Nolo, Forger, and Animals. To Darren that sounds like a god that forges
the animal kingdom through metallurgy. He decides to use this.

Example: in one session of Incarnis, there was a player god who was both a character and a landmark,
because he was a giant turtle. To visualize this, we would fold its card and stand it upright when the
god acted as a character, or flip it over and lay it flat when it acted as a landmark.

Once you have completed all of the Creation steps, look at the
big picture and think about what your god wants to do about it...

10 11
 STEP 1
Create Domains
Begin with an idea. Domains form
the core themes of your myth, and will
come to life in different ways for you to
explore and interact with. Before they
do, you choose your Domains based
purely on what you would like to add
to your myth in whatever way, shape
or form.
Fire
12
Take turns in clockwise order, starting with the
player who has an idea first.
▶     Take a blank Creation Card and choose
a unique Domain. For inspiration, ask
the Muse of Domains, or answer the
following question with a noun: if you
could have a talk with a god, what might it
be the god of?
▶     Write the Domain in the bottom left card
corner and draw an associated Symbol in
the card center (see example to the left).
▶     Continue in clockwise order until all
players have created three Domains, then
proceed to step 2: Create Tensions.
STEP 2
Create Tensions
Spark your ideas with Tensions. Each player
god wants something from the player god to their
left, which that god is reluctant to give up. This is
their Tension, and as the gods try to resolve their
Tensions, they change their world forever. Example: In Greek mythology, Hera’s

spouse. Her Tension was that she was

Do not specify it any further yet. This could fit the Domain of Justice,
▶     Determine the troubled relationship between Death or even Hunting. So in this case she
the players that fuels this Tension, such as would have a relationship card like this:
‘rivalling sibling’ or ‘ex-lover’. For inspiration, ask
the Muse of Relationships, or answer the
following question with a noun: what troubled
relationship might be a fun challenge for two
adjacent players?
▶     As a reminder, write the relationship in pencil at
the top of the card for now. Hunting
▶     Continue in clockwise order until all players have
a Tension, then proceed to step 3: Create Gods.
During the Conclusion Phase, your Tensions will
manifest in the world, at which point the relation-
ship can be erased and this card can become a new
artifact, landmark or even a new god.
13
 STEP 3
Create Gods
Now create the gods themselves. You
play the part of a god in your myth. This is the
being who has the relationship and the Tension
that you received in the previous step. Each
god personifies a Domain, so you get to rage
like fire, or flow like water.
Whatever Domain you choose, you interpret
what kind of character could personify it.
In addition, you have control over your
god’s Domain, and any minor personifica-
tions of your Domain that you can think of,
such as fire spirits or forest nymphs.
14
Continue the turn order of the last step.
▶     Choose an unassigned card as your god
and place it in front of you.
▶     Choose a name and write it in the top
right corner of the card. For inspiration,
ask the Muse of Names, or answer the
following question with a noun: can you
turn your Domain or an associated word
into a name?
▶     As an option for a longer Creation Phase
that could fill a whole session, follow the
Create Forms steps on the next page.
▶     Once all of the players have created their
god, proceed to step 4: Create Landmarks.
Tip: to move your god around your world
during the Drama Phase as a pawn, fold the
god’s index card in two with the writing on
the inside, writing the name at the top and
the Domain at the bottom.
Example: Ismadis, the god of Thunder would
look like this:
Ismadis
Thunder
To make this a pawn: fold it in half, copy on
both sides and stand upright, like so:
Ismadis might have the following traits for you
to roleplay: a fiery personality that wants to
burn, heat and multiply; control over fire and
fiery phenomena, as well as fire spirits; present
wherever fire of any kind is present.
Optional:
Create Forms
Even mythical Creations can be bound
to a form. While your god can manifest
itself in whatever shape it desires, it
might prefer one over any other. This is
your Form. If you want your god to have
a Form, you can create one as a part of the
Create God step. Choose a type and add
one or more details below. Your god is not
bound to its Form unless this emerges from
your myth.
Type
Pick one of these basic forms or roll a die.
They range from easy- to hard-to-play.
1 Humanoid. You appear in a form people
can relate to, but perhaps not too much.
2 Animal. You appear as an animal, either
mundane or mythical. Consult the Muse
of Animals.

STEP 4
Create
Landmarks
Let the world unfold before you. It will already exist
before your first Scene begins. But rather than creating
a whole world, we focus on key landmarks that are
important to your gods. The story and the rest of your
world will unravel from there.
▶     Together with the other players, create landmarks
by each rolling two dice towards your play area
at the same time. Wherever your dice land, a
landmark is formed, and your play area becomes
your map. Did your roll get messy? Great. Use it!
Continue the turn order of the Create Gods step.
▶     Take an unassigned card as one of your landmarks
and give this card a Form. For inspiration, look up
the value of this landmark’s die on the landmarks
table to the right.
▶     Replace the landmark’s die with its Creation Card.
▶     If you want a longer creation phase that could fill a
session, players can follow the steps from the op-
tional Choose Starting Titles step on the next page.
Once all of the players have created one landmark,
repeat the previous three steps once more for each
player’s second landmark, now using blank Creation
Cards instead of unassigned cards to create more
natural landmarks rather than mythical.
Once all of the players have created two landmarks,
look at the big picture. Look at your Tension and think
about what your god wants to do about it. For inspi-
ration, ask the Muse of Actions. Then, proceed to
step 1 of the Drama Phase: Envision.
Example: in Greek mythology, Cerberus’s role is
that of a guardian for the underworld’s Domain,
and his form is that of a giant, three-headed dog.
Landmarks

A fabled creature’s dwelling is more
about the creature than the dwelling.
To create the creature:
›  Give the creature a Form. Use its

For inspiration on Forms, roll a die.
1-3 is a humanoid, 4-6 is an ani-

Drama Phase
What happens when all-powerful gods
collide? The only limit to the power of a god, is
the other gods. That, and free will.
Because of these, there are things the gods
cannot just make happen. Things they must
work towards. Things they can desire.
This is the drama of the gods, and
the reason for them to keep
creating.
Scenes
Each player gets to call their own scene in
clockwise order, starting with whoever has
an idea for their scene first.
During your scene, you take action
towards resolving their Tension. However,
your Tension is only truly resolved in the
Conclusion Phase, so pace your scenes.
Steps
Each scene is broken up into three steps:
Step 1: Envision! You envision what
you want to accomplish with your
scene and how.
Step 2: Action! You play out your
envisioned scene as your god to find
out what happens.
Step 3: Manifest! You find out
whether you get what you envisioned,
and in what way.
20
Roles
During each scene, players will take on
different roles based on whose scene it is:
Caller, Challenger or Supporter.
The Caller
When it is your turn to call a

scene a challenging, but not impossible one.
The Supporters
When the Caller and Challenger have
envisioned their scene, the other players
are the Supporters. You play any extra
characters relevant to the scene.
Acts
Scenes are played over three rounds
called acts. In each act, each player
gets to call a scene. Typically, acts have
the following progression:
Act 1: Scenes explore their Tensions.
Act 2: Scenes expand on act 1.
Act 3: Scenes strongly interconnect.
This structure is not forced by any rules.
Instead, keep it in mind, and let your
scenes develop organically. Progression
might happen sooner or later. The only
rule is that Tensions may only be fully
resolved after the Drama Phase has
ended.

The drama has started. Play the scene to find out

Role-playing
Two tips to transition into role-playing:
▶   Start speaking as your character.
▶   Address other players by their character Name
that should be visible to you in the play area.
You can choose whether you speak for or as your
character (“The God of Lightning picks up his bolt”
vs “I pick up my thunderbolt”). A combination of
the two works best, but go with what you feel
comfortable with.
Let’s manifest this!
The goal of the scene is to find out how the
vision will manifest. Once the scene has
reached its peak of exciting uncertainty,
anyone can call out “Manifest!”. At this
point, move straight to Step 3: Manifest!
Short and sweet
Only if the Caller or Challenger really
feels like the vision is not yet ready to
manifest, they can role-play a little
longer. But scenes should not last
more than a handful of minutes.
Keep the following tips in mind.
▶   Understand the vision.
▶   Role-play only to find out
what happens to that vision.
▶   Manifest the vision as soon
as you feel the uncertainty
has reached its peak.
The Supporters:
what if I’m not in a scene?
Not being in scenes is very common.
Use this time to sit back and enjoy the
show. But don’t get too comfortable!
When you don’t participate in a
scene you are a Supporter and still
have things to do:
Be proactive and jump in mid-
scene with a named Creation or an
improvised extra if it benefits the
scene.
Help to find the peak of the
drama for the other players in the
scene. Call to manifest the scene
whenever you feel the moment
is right.
Who do you favour? When
a scene is resolved, you will
be able to support either the
Caller or the Challenger. Keep
an eye out for which one your
god would lend its favour
in the heat of the moment,
keeping in mind that gods
can be fickle.

Put new actions aside

It will likely occur that new actions or
manifestations arise during play that a god
might wish to challenge. Do not explore
these during your scene. Instead, put them
aside for now, and bring them up as a
potential action during the Envision step
of a later scene.

STEP 3
Manifest!
The tension is bursting.
What happens next is resolved
by the rolling of dice. This happens
at the dramatic height of a scene,
and determines which player gets to
decide on the outcome.
1. Committing Dice
Follow the steps below in order.
a. Receive New Domain Dice
If the Caller or Challenger performed
a wonder using a Domain that’s part of
the scene, such as their shared Tension,
one of their own Domains or that of the
scene’s landmark, that player may com-
mit one Domain Die from the Reserve
Pool by placing it in front of them.
b. Receive Favour Dice
Any Supporter may favour either the Call-
er or the Challenger by adding their Fa-
vour Die to either player’s committed dice.
When you do so, add a narrative flourish
that signifies the favour of your god.
c. Commit Dice from your Pool
The Caller and Challenger may both commit
any number of dice from their own pool.
Both sides may add dice in response to what
the other side is committing
Once committed, a die cannot be taken back.

The Mythos Deck
Your myth has ended. But your gods
can live on in new myths.
To play a new myth using your existing Creations, store your
used Creation Cards in a stack. This stack is your Mythos Deck.
When setting up your next game, place the Mythos Deck within
reach of each player.

Draw New Creations from Ask the Muse by Drawing a Card

your Mythos Deck
When you would normally take a blank
Creation Card, you may choose to select
one from the Mythos Deck instead. Of-
ten, players will want to continue playing
as one of their previous gods, but you
don’t have to. You can create a new god,
or use a card belonging to another player
with their consent.
When you want to ask a Muse,
you may treat the Mythos Deck as
a Muse by giving it a shuffle and
blindly drawing a card. Interpret the
result, and add the Creation to your
play area if you want it to make an
appearance. Otherwise, place it at
the bottom of the Mythos Deck.

Titles Stick Tensions must always be new Domains

When you add a Mythos
card to the Play Area, any
of its Titles come along
with it. You can recognise
them by the symbol of
their Keeper at the top left
of the card.
In the Creation Phase, during the Domains
step, make sure to take at least one blank
card per player instead of drawing only
from the Mythos Deck. Tensions can’t be
drawn from the mythos deck because they
represent new Domains, so they require
that blank card.

Mythos Arcs
At any point in your mythos, you may want to introduce a new
story arc that spans multiple sessions. Three optional modules
are available in the next sections. They can guide you through
a story arc, but don’t force it too much. If you notice your
myth is trying to move in a different direction, the arc has
served its purpose and you can follow your own course.

Quick start using the Mythos Deck

Instead of following each Creation Phase step, set
up your previous gods and their Domains (choosing
the most interesting turn order), place two existing
landmarks each and create new Tensions.

The Hero’s Journey
an optional arc for 4 myths
Myth I: Separation
The Hero Is Separated From Their Ordinary Life.
Ordinary World
We meet The Hero in their Ordinary World.
Who? The False Mentor (ordinary being without a mythical
Domain).
Act I
What? To restrict The Hero. Examples: Luke’s uncle Owen /
Harry’s uncle Vernon / The Hobbits of the Shire
Where? The Hero’s Home. Choose or create a landmark without
a Domain that might be most dramatically affected by a specific
player god. That player god becomes The Shadow (see Myth III).
Call to Adventure
The Hero receives the Call to Adventure: a challenge, a quest, or
a problem that must be faced.
Who? The Herald.
What? To warn and challenge The Hero.
Examples: R2-D2 / Hagrid / Gandalf.
Where? The Hero’s Home.
Act II
The Herald tells about The Shadow, and their plans for The
Resurrection of a terrible Domain. Choose or create this
Domain based on the drama that befell The Hero’s Home. The
Resurrection is The Hero’s Tension, and stays with them until
it manifests in Myth IV. This drama was just the beginning. The
Hero’s Journey is a quest to confront The Shadow and then to
stop The Resurrection.
If The Hero Refuses the Call, The Shadow in their next scene ad-
vances The Resurrection such that The Hero is separated from
their home and is forced to start their journey unwillingly.
Meeting the Mentor
A Meeting with the Mentor provides encouragement, wisdom
or magical gifts to push The Hero past fear and doubt.
Act III
Who? The Mentor.
What? To guide The Hero.
Examples: Obi-Wan / Dumbledore / Gandalf.
Where? Choose or create an ordinary landmark without a
Domain near The Hero’s Home.
Crossing the First Threshold
Conclusion
The Hero finally accepts the challenge and Crosses the
Threshold into the Mythical World.

Feuding
Pantheons
an optional arc for 3 myths
There are new gods afoot. Man-
made technologies that reek of mankind’s
pomposity. They do not pay their respects
to you, the gods of the old world. Their
motives are a mystery, their plans are neb-
ulous. But little by little, they are changing
your world into theirs. How dare they.
In Feuding Pantheons, the players are not the
only ones shaping the world in their image.
There are new gods at play who work in the
shadows. These gods are played by automated
players called automa. Your goal is to unravel
the motive of the new gods and figure out their
plans before they come to fruition.
Create an automa
During the setup of your myth, when you want
a god to act proactively behind the curtains,
and independently from the players, create an
automa. This is an automated player that has its
own position in the player circle but who moves
behind the curtains with unknown intentions.
The automa is treated as a regular player but
with the following 8 simplifications.
1. Setup. The automa is placed somewhere in
the player circle and is treated as a player, but
receives no Support Dice.
2. Any time during play. When making a
decision, automas always ask an appropriate
Muse, and the human players interpret the
answer.
Drama Phase
5. Envision! and Action! steps. Automa skip the
Envision! and Action! steps. Instead, players ask
the Muse of Action what the automa tries to
do, and the Muse of Domains what it is trying
to do this to. The human players interpret the
results in whatever obvious way would be most
problematic for them. They have no idea how
or why the aumotas are doing this. Then, the
automa skips straight to the Manifest! step.
6. Manifest! step. When an automa is the
Caller of a scene, whoever is willing to commit
the most dice is the Challenger. If multiple
players are willing to commit the most
(including 0), the tied player closest to the
automa’s left is the Challenger. Both the Caller
and the Challenger may commit one Domain
Die from the Reserve pool, but no Favour Dice
may be committed. The automa will always
commit half of its own dice pool, rounded up.
Conclusion Phase
7. Manifest Tension. The automa creates a new
Domain and uses it to manifest a landmark,
following the Create Landmark steps of the
Creation Phase.
8. Attribute Titles. The automa picks an
available landmark created in the last
Manifest Tension step in the following order of
preference: their own manifestation, that of an
automa closest to their left, or that of a human
player closest to their left.
Solo play: automa can also be used for
solo play. To do so, ignore the automa
simplifications 3 and 4 of the Creation
Phase, so that automa and humans create
Tensions in the exact same way. This also
means that a Caller’s Challenger is always
the automa or player to their left.
Look for patterns in what the automa are do-
ing, and assume that your gods believe these
patterns to be clues towards the true motives
of the automa.
Myth 2. Keep in mind the patterns that your
gods have identified at the end of myth 1.
While their own Tensions are still at play,
they might approach them differently based
on what they suspect is happening in the
background.
At the end of Myth 2, repeat the steps of
Myth 1.
Myth 3. Assume that whatever pattern the
gods identified at the end of myth 2 is true.
Have the player gods and the automa gods
behave accordingly.
At the end of Myth 3, repeat the steps of
Myth 1.
Look at your tally. If the number of
attributed Titles is half or more of
the number of landmarks created,
the new gods achieve their goals,
making the old gods outdated and
obsolete. If not, the old gods

The End of Times
an optional arc for 3 myths
The end time is looming. A great
calamity feeds on the ego of the gods,
spreading further and further as they turn
a blind eye to chase their passions straight
into their graves.
Create the Great Calamity
When you complete the Create Landmarks
step of the Creation Phase, collectively choose
one landmark with a Domain as your Great
Calamity. This Domain is consuming the world,
ending it in the proces. Will it be a great flood?
A world-devouring serpent? The breaking of
the sky or the earth? You decide.
Invoke the Great Calamity
The calamity is starting to creep into
everything. When invoking a Domain during the
Manifest! step, that of the calamity is always
available.
Prevent the Great Calamity
When you add rolled Domain Dice back to
your pool during the Manifest! step, you may
sacrifice one of those dice by placing it on the
calamity card. This is now a sacrificial die and
will help ward off the Great Calamity’s spread
in the Conclusion Phase.
34
Manifest the Great Calamity
When you complete the Conclusion Phase,
each success you rolled during the Attribute
Titles step counts as an egocentric success that
the calamity uses to spread further.
▶   Each player removes one die from the
calamity card for each mark on that card.
There are zero marks on the card in your
first myth.
▶   Roll all remaining sacrificial dice.
▶   Each sacrificial success cancels out an
egocentric success.
▶   For each remaining egocentric success, one
player irrevocably turns a Domain from one
of their gods or Domains into that of the
calamity. Start with the player who went
last in the Attribute Titles step and continue
in reverse order.
▶   Add a mark to the calamity card.
When all player gods are consumed by the
Great Calamity. The world is devoured by
the Great Calamity. The singularity is upon
you. There is no more drama or creation. Only
infinite oneness. Your mythos has ended.
Question: is this just the death of an old world,
or also the birth of a new one? You can use the
Mythos Deck for a new world, where all the
Domains have not been created yet. When
doing so, you may use cards from the deck that
have not been manifested in your new world
yet as Tension cards.
When any player gods still remain after the
third calamity mark (after 3 myths). Your world
survived the great calamity. ​​The gods can make
sacrifices after all. Their nature has proven to
be more than just pridefulness and desire, and
while the world has changed forever, it is now
free to keep changing for aeons to come.
