Parallel Lines is a collection of eight very different scenarios set in seven very different versions of Earth. Each mission is self-contained, but the collection can be played as a complete campaign with the characters forming an elite team in Valhalla's Mjollnir Section.The adventures include the Salem Witch Trials, a post-apocalyptic Camargue, an Orwellian Britain, epic journeys by airship and Trans-Siberian Express, a voyage to the bottom of the sea, an investigation through the streets of a disintegrating Edinburgh, and a murder hunt through a dystopian London.Packed with wild ideas and creative locations, along with dozens of colourful NPCs (and some distinctly weird ones), Parallel Lines is transplanar adventuring at its very best.Parallel Lines requires access to both Luther Arkwright: Roleplaying Across the Parallels and Mythras for full enjoyment.

A.D. 449. This year Marcian and Valentinian assumed the empire, and reigned seven winters. In their days Hengest and Horsa, invited by Wurtgern, king of the Britons to his assistance, landed in Britain in a place that is called Ipwinesfleet; first of all to support the Britons, but they afterwards fought against them. The king directed them to fight against the Picts; and they did so; and obtained the victory wheresoever they came. They then sent to the Angles, and desired them to send more assistance. They described the worthlessness of the Britons, and the richness of the land. They then sent them greater support. Then came the men from three powers of Germany; the Old Saxons, the Angles, and the Jutes... From Anglia, which has ever since remained waste between the Jutes and the Saxons, came the East Angles, the Middle Angles, the Mercians, and all of those north of the Humber. Their leaders were two brothers, Hengest and Horsa, who were the sons of Wihtgils; Wihtgils was the son of Witta, Witta of Wecta, Wecta of Woden. From this Woden arose all our royal kindred, and that of the Southumbrians also. - The Anglo Saxon ChronicleAnd so the Saxons came to Britain. Vortigern, who betrayed them, fell, and in time they took all the land in the east so that the dominion of the Britons was divided, and the Britons driven back in their kingdoms of Dumnonia, Powys, Gwent, Elmet and Brigantia. From these conquered lands rose Anglia, Ceint and Mierce. With them came new kings: Guercha One-Eye of the Angles, Aelle - the Bretwalda, and now, to challenge them both, Cerdic and his sons.The Saxons bring new Gods and new Magic. They come to conquer and settle. They come to claim what Vortigern promised and failed to deliver. But most of all, they come to fight.Mythic Britain: Logres is a companion volume to Mythic Britain focusing firmly on the Saxon kingdoms. In its pages you will find a wealth of information on Saxon culture, beliefs, rites, practices, people and magic. The book details the lands of Logres, its kingdoms, its politics and its internal strife. The book includes character creation for Saxon characters, new rules for Saxon magic, rules for riddles and contests, and a detailed mini-campaign following the arrival of Cerdic in the south of Britain.Mythic Britain: Logres explores the world of the Saxons in 6th Century Britain. It delves into Saxon culture, society, religion and beliefs, bringing life to these enigmatic invaders from the Germanic lowlands of northern Europe. Written by Paul Mitchener, this is an essential resource for all Mythic Britain Games Masters and anyone with an interest in Anglo Saxon heritage.

There's something rotten in the town of Advent.Advent - the last civilized place in The Realm before one crosses into the barbarian lands of The Long Riding. Many years ago this was a lawless place of warring clans and murderous bandits. Advent has grown since then, but little has changed. It still attracts the dregs, the runaways, the refugees, the desperate, the unforgiven.Perhaps this is why Zarand and his gang of robbers thought Advent was a good place to lie low. To plan the next job. To find the fabled treasure hoard of the barbarian chief, Hessaret.But naturally, nothing is ever as simple.This might just be Zarand's last job...Hessaret's Treasure is a Mythras scenario set in The Realm, the lands described in Book of Quests. It provides a side chapter for that campaign, or, as is intended, a scenario in its own right. While useful, Book of Quests is not essential for play, and this scenario can easily be slotted into many fantasy campaign settings. It is suitable for a party of up to six reasonably skilled adventurers looking to make a name for themselves and not afraid to get their hands dirty.
