Two New Elthos Meta-Game Supplements

Here are my two new Elthos Meta-Game Supplements!  I really wanted to get them on DTRPG in time for the new year (2026) and here they are!  :D

Elthos Meta-Game Elkron-Player Strategy Guide (Free)

The Elkron-Player Strategy Guide whispers as you play: What is your Elkron's purpose?

This is the Strategy Guide for Players of the Elthos Meta-Game, offering inspiration for the journey. It provides thoughts and considerations on defining your Elkron's divine nature through alignment and element, crafting a mythic trajectory across the Five Ages, and designing Seeds of Destiny that echo the great classical themes, from the ancient Sumerians through to modern fantasy such as Tolkien's Silmarillion. While the Elthos Meta-Game Core Rules decide which Elkron prevails, this guide intends to help ensure that the bards, priests, and chroniclers of your Shared World will remember the story your Elkron told about themselves throughout the game.

Elthos Meta-Game GM-Referee Strategy Guide ($18)

The GM-Referee of the Meta-Game is not merely the arbiter of rules. You are an architect of mysteries, a keeper of cosmic secrets, and the conductor of an epic that will echo through the ages.

This guide is for your eyes only. It is a forbidden tome that transforms your role from neutral referee into something far more profound. Within these pages lie the hidden contexts, the philosophical foundations, and the strategic tools you need to elevate your Meta-Game from mere collaborative world-building into genuine mythic drama.

Learn how to engage your players in the creation of your new Shared World's mythos. Discover what lies beneath the surface of the Cosmic Wheel, and how the Elkron's perspectives are formed by their dance across the Orphic Sphere. Master the art of pacing revelation, orchestrating drama, and Gamemastering the epic conflicts that will make your Shared World unforgettable.

This is not a rulebook. This is the philosophic context that will help you guide your Elkron-Players through a story worthy of the gods themselves. Your players should not read this. Hence the intentionally high price point in the Elthos Book store. The goal is to let the GM-Referee know the book exists, but put up enough of a barrier to mitigate the chances that the Players will download it and spoil the surprises in store for them. If you are going to be a Player in the Meta-Game, and not the GM-Referee, do yourself a favor and do not read this book. It would be a pity to spoil the game for yourself.

The Elthos Meta-Game Core Rules are required to use this guide.

Note: if you as GM-Referee cannot afford this book, but you intend to run the Meta-Game, do not worry. Just reach out to me and I will be happy to send you a complementary copy of the GM-Referee Strategy Guide for free to whatever return email address you provide. No strings attached.

Elthos Meta-Game Core Rules on DriveThruRPG

The Elthos Meta-Game is a collaborative world-building RPG where GameMasters unite to create a shared World governed by a common pantheon of Elkron (Zodiac-bound deities / powers) they personally embody. As divine architects, GMs wield Kismet (cosmic essence) to shape the world's terrain, races, and prophetic quests across five Ages, from primordial creation to the apocalyptic God War.

The primary objective: forge a cohesive shared world where your Elkron's history, mythologies, alliances, and rivalries provide the foundation for interconnected RPG campaigns to be Gamemastered by the Elkro-Players during the Age of Heroes. Seeds of Destiny, divine wagers on heroic quests, link the outer meta-game to inner campaign play, ensuring every adventure enriches the collective mythology.

Whether running quick dice-driven sessions or epic multi-year sagas, this system delivers deep world-building with mythic coherence with exhilarating game play. The 66-page PDF includes complete mechanics, hex maps, and appendices.

Gather your fellow GMs, ascend as Elkron, and craft legends together!
