Three Years ago our founder @vocolon.bsky.social took a gamble and produced an Actual Play that would be know as "The Mythic Mythic Initiative". Since then we have told over 7 wonderous tales with a multitude of BIPOC creators who helped each production be better than he last. Happy Anniversary!

Its Portfolio Day! This is a great time to show off and thank the wonderful artist who put together this season's art of our show, the one and only @inkeyjay.bsky.social!

Once again Caedra's incredible art is done by the one and only Aitor (@inkeyjay.bsky.social)🎨!
Before you is the Image of a muscular built woman wearing a variety of reds, yellows, and greens, with the most distinct part of her clothes being her dirty steel armor. The warrior's lightly tanned and freckled complexion matches their strange eyes, which are their own colors.

The term fallen from grace would be an understatement for this once great warrior of old. Exiled into these realms of chaos for defying the emperor, but worry not, as The Exalted never waste a good sword.

Introducing Caedra👼, who the phenomenal Syriinx (@syriinx.bsky.social) will be playing!
A faded red-painted background depicts a ruined brick wall. On the left side of the wall lie the spray-painted colors of teal and blood red, in the shape of a pair of wings with hands reaching towards a lone star. On top of this graffiti lies the Image of a muscular built warrior wearing a variety of reds, yellows, and greens, with the most distinct part of her clothes being her dirty steel armor. The warrior's lightly tanned and freckled complexion matches their strange eyes, which are their own colors. Above her head lies a set of glowing text that reads: Caedra On the right of the wall is a dirty bronze bulletin board with a ring of red swirling energy with a set of text that reads: "The First Hellrasier" Caedra (she/any) was once the Empire's greatest triumph, created through trial and error. A god in the making until an act of mercy unmade her. Cast out she now endures as both traitor and legend. Finally, on the bottom right lies an antique picture of the performer with a card that reads: Syriinx (@syriinx)

One Down, One more to Go👼
A blueish purple stone wall acts as the backdrop for a beautifully spray-painted silhouette of two figures. One figure is a well built scholar wearing a variety of blues, yellows, and brown with the most distant parts of his clothes being his golden googles and well dressed tie. The other figure is covered with red and green paint in the shape of a stalwart warrior. Inside these one of these spray-painted masterpieces are a set of words denoting each of the characters that read: God Rage Hopeless Traitor On either side of the spray-painted art lie golden yellow and burning colored flags that read: Anqi Ascension Fallen Ascension At the bottom of it all lies a simple set of purple spray-painted text that lastly says: Our Ascendants

Anqi's incredible Art is done by the one and only Aitor @inkeyjay.bsky.social🎨!
On top of this graffiti lies the Image of a well built scholar wearing a variety of blues, yellows, and brown with the most distant parts of his clothes being his golden googles and well dressed tie. The scholar's bronze colored skin tone match the strange golden marking all over his body and his bright golden eyes.

The Seer foresaw The Lantern! For all the city's problems, Lantern would save them all as their light will lead them from the depths of the planes to the mortal realm, where they truly belong.

Introducing Anqi🧪, who the phenomenal Apollo (@tallnerdapollo.bsky.social) will be playing!
A faded gold painted background depicts a ruined brick wall. On the left side of the wall lies the spray painted colors of blue, yellow and neon green in the shape of a multiplied layered ringed city within a pocket watch. On top of this graffiti lies the Image of a well built scholar wearing a variety of blues, yellows, and brown with the most distant parts of his clothes being his golden googles and well dressed tie. The scholar's bronze colored skin tone match the strange golden marking all over his body and his bright golden eyes. Above his head lies a set of glowing text that reads: Anqi On the right of the wall is a dirty bronze bulletin board with a ring of yellow swirling energy with a set of text that reads "Genius In The Tower" Anqi (he/him) is a genius that has never been allowed to leave his tower. A life of invention and research but social isolation, a prophecy he's heard his whole life but doesn't understand. When his cage is unlocked, will he lead everyone to salvation or crack under the pressure? Finally, on the bottom right lies a Antique picture of the performer with a card that reads: Apollo (@tallnerdapollo)

A tale of opposites, one a great figure on the verge of becoming a god👼, and the other who has faithfully spent their life in solitude 🔬.

Next week, we will be announcing the cast of Ascension along with the powerful PCs they will be playing!

What classes do you think our cast will be playing?👀
