D&D 5e with a giant homebrew setting called The Realms of Scindo! I’m pulling a lot of the build from different periods of Greece’s history, and it’s been so much fun. We start sometime in the next few weeks, once I wrangle my group.

Awesome!

Some random soundtrack building tips:

If you take that Template playlist above, you can add all the songs to a new playlist, and use that as a base. Clear out all the stuff you don't want, add in everything you do.

Don't organize the playlist on the mobile app. It wrecks the order and just throws everything wherever. You can add or remove songs on your phone, but you do have to put them in order on a computer.

You can find some really good hour+ long mixes, which can easily fill a lot of soundtrack time. The Assassin's Creed Odyssey soundtrack is an obvious starting point for a Greek inspired D&D game.

For each campaign/chronicle I have a master playlist where I just dump everything I think I'll want. So a great step to this the next few weeks is to just make a master playlist full of AC: Odyssey, Hades, God of War, etc soundtracks, and anything else you really dig.

Good luck!
