Mythic Trials

Source War of Immortals Alternate Mythic Rules pg. 3
Mythic trials represent a way to advance your mythic abilities independently of gaining levels. A mythic trial is typically either completing a mythic deed or defeating one or more mythic monsters in a combat encounter, though a trial may also be a milestone marked by the party's completion of a number of non-mythic tasks that collectively mark a great accomplishment; for example, the Story-Based Crafting rules from Treasure Vault (pages 170-175) make a great accompaniment to a mythic campaign and something like the Shaping the Armor of Yggdrasil quest from that section could be a mythic trial all on its own. A mythic trial should be a difficult task and a notable accomplishment—avoid trivial- or low-threat encounters and easy skill checks! The following are all examples of mythic trials.

The PCs overcome a mythic monster in a moderate- or severe-threat encounter.
The PCs complete a mythic deed that involved at least one hard or very hard skill check for characters of their level, preferably one such check per character.
The PCs climb a mountain to a dragon's hidden lair, defeat the dragon's watchdogs, slay the dragon, and then retrieve a mythic item contained within the dragon's hoard.

With independent mythic progression, the PCs mythic power is gauged in mythic tiers, measurements of their relative mythic power. They become mythic tier 0 characters when they complete their first mythic trial, gaining their Calling and the other benefits described under “Mythic Rules". Unlocking their next mythic tier requires them to complete two additional mythic trials per tier until they reach mythic tier 5. In order to reach mythic tier 6 and unlock their mythic destiny and subsequent mythic tiers, the PCs must complete three mythic trials per tier. Upon reaching tier 6, the character selects one 12th- level mythic destiny feat and can select higher level feats from that mythic destiny or lower level mythic feats they do not already have; as normal a character can have only one mythic destiny. After they reach mythic tier 9, they must complete 4 mythic trials in order to reach mythic tier 10 and unlock their final mythic feat, which typically grants them a form of immortality. The number of mythic feats a character has when progressing via mythic tiers is equal to the value of their mythic tier (so a mythic tier 6 character should have a total of 6 mythic feats, plus their Calling). The maximum level of mythic feat they can gain is listed in the Mythic Trials table and is equal to their mythic tier x2.

You can modify the number of mythic trials required to reach a new mythic tier based on the expected length of your campaign and your players' comfort with the increased complexity of their mythic characters in a variety of ways. You might choose to start the campaign with the characters already at mythic tier 0 and with their Callings chosen, for example, and you might reduce the number of mythic trials required to attain each new tier by one or more. Even in a campaign where the players are intentionally gaining mythic tiers at an expedited rate, it is recommended that you avoid increasing the party's mythic tier more than once per game session to ensure that the players have time to become familiarized with their new abilities.

Because mythic power is generally intended to increase at the same rate characters gain levels, a character whose mythic tier is greater than half their level is likely to be exceptionally strong, while a character whose mythic tier is equal to or less than half their level will be less strong than a standard mythic character of the same level, but still stronger than a standard non-mythic character. Additional guidance on how to adjust the game for each of these circumstances is described below.

Mythic Trials

Mythic Tier Number	Maximum Feat Level	Encounter
0	Calling Only	1
1	2	2
2	4	2
3	6	2
4	8	2
5	10	2
6	12 (Mythic Destiny)	3
7	14	3
8	16	3
9	18	3
10	20	4
