Mythbound Mechanics - Boons

Welcome to our first article about the mechanics of Mythbound! We all know that the gods of myth can be quite wrathful if provoked, but they can also provide great Boons if their favor is earned by an enterprising Captain.

Boons are an exciting new type of Treasure that go away once you complete their conditions, but give you some extremely potent rewards for finishing their requests. You don’t discover them like normal Treasures, instead you’ll need to track down envoys of the gods who will grant you Boons when you complete their tasks.

Odin’s Raven sees all, and whenever he sees you find a golden Character, he’ll grant you a Boon! You’ll get an opportunity to pick one of three Boons, same as with Treasures, so you can try to tailor your selections to which ones you think you’ll be more easily able to complete, or maybe whichever one you feel has the most enticing reward!

But of course, that’s not all there is for the Boon-oriented amongst us. Mythbound also brings great adventurers of antiquity who will give you massive benefits for becoming honored of the gods.

Perseus is a man of many talents and blessed by the many gods on his Quest. Complete your Boons to grow his stats and find the Treasure at the end of his journey.

Of course, we also have some Captains in store who can help you find Boons.

Of course, this is just a small taste of the potent Boons the Mythbound have in store for us. Be sure to check it out when the full set releases on April 24th!
