What It Is

OmniMyth is an independent tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) publishing imprint run solo by Brian Ericson. Built around the idea of “making things for friends, and creating with friends,” it focuses on handcrafted game rules, adventure modules, and practical play aids.

Core-Dimension Analysis

• Tool/service type and core features: Positioned as a traditional tabletop RPG content publisher, its core offering is original role-playing content: a rules system (OmniMyth Complete), setting material such as The Gaellaeffa Guide to Troika, and support tools such as fillable character sheets. The products emphasize being “handmade,” with all content going through multiple rounds of in-person playtesting and editing.
• Licensing and copyright: The project shows a strong independent-publishing ethos in how it handles copyright. It explicitly states that all collaborating independent artists retain the rights to their work and are paid their asking rates—something still commendably rare in indie publishing.
• Collaboration features and resource-library size: As a PDF and print-book publishing project, it does not provide online collaboration features itself and would rely on external platforms for online play. The resource library is very small at present, with only one core rules product, one module, and one free tool.
• Export and compatibility: Digital products are distributed as PDFs. The character sheets are compatible with both A4 and US Letter printing standards; the module is deeply compatible with the Troika! system. Print books are distributed through external platforms such as Spearwitch and Exalted Funeral.

Pricing

OmniMyth uses a mix of one-time purchases and free offerings. The core rulebook PDF is priced at US$8, the module PDF at US$12, and print books at US$22–24. It also provides free PDF character sheets, and the creator states that players facing financial hardship can get in touch for a free copy, reflecting a strong sense of community inclusion.

Pros and Cons

• Pros: Content is rigorously tested and prioritizes quality over quantity; artists are respected and paid fairly; the community tone is welcoming, with free resources and a hardship-friendly fallback.
• Cons: The solo hobbyist operating model means releases are very slow and the product line is thin; it avoids mainstream social media—described by the creator as a “hell-hole”—and relies mainly on Discord, limiting its visibility.

Who It’s For

Best suited for players who enjoy independent TTRPGs and are looking for niche tabletop rulesets, especially dedicated fans of Troika!, as well as role-playing enthusiasts who want to support independent creators.
