Experience Epic Adventures
Nestled in a scenic 4-H camp in northeast Connecticut, Myth provides the backdrop for a story-driven adventure that unfolds over five immersive campaign-style weekends each year. Our events kick off on Friday night and draw to a close on Sunday afternoon, each weekend packed with magic, heroism, and camaraderie.
Join Our Thriving Cast
Each event sees between 100-150 players and 50-100 NPCs come together to weave a tapestry of epic narratives. As a player, you’ll propel the story forward—exploring dense forests, battling formidable monsters, engaging with other characters, delving into dungeons, and uncovering hidden treasures.
Crafted by Expert Narrators
Our dedicated team of over 20 narrators tirelessly works to weave continuous and new captivating plotlines, ensuring each weekend is unique and engaging. At the events, our skilled game directors bring these narratives to life, guiding NPCs adorned in elaborate costumes to inhabit the roles that enrich the vibrant world of Myth.
Measuring Success Through Experience
We measure the success of our events not by numbers alone but by the impact they have on our community—how they make our players and NPCs feel. At Myth, it’s not just about playing a role; it’s about living an extraordinary story where every participant matters.

NPC Team Leads & Guides
Our Team Leads go above and beyond; they become Guides for our new NPCs, ensuring a seamless and welcoming introduction to the world of Myth. As Guides, they are the first point of contact for newcomers, ready to answer any questions before the event and provide essential insights that prepare them for the adventure ahead.
Upon arrival, our Guides take on the role of host, showing new members around the venue and facilitating introductions to other players and NPCs. Their primary goal is to ensure that the first experience of new NPCs is not only positive and fun but also memorable. This personal touch helps forge strong bonds from the start, setting the tone for many adventures to come.
