Mythic Literacy

Giveaways and Prizes

Mythic Literacy

Participants in our Mythic RPG program earn points for creative writing and game related art work. They also earn points for writing reports on the books they have read that relate to their adventures. As an added bonus, kids playing the Mythic RPG also develop their math skills and become more interested in history and literature. Parents are happy that their kids are having fun while demonstrating a greater love of learning.

Hercules Invictus' goal is to make learning fun, exciting and very accessible.

Books related to our current campaigns and a wide range of RPG related materials are won, given away and/or traded in each and every Mythic RPG session. This tradition began with our very first Mythic RPG one-shot in 2005 and is still going strong.

And in February 2008 this tradition has become even stronger. I am honored to announce that Hercules Invictus is now a bona fide BookMooch Charity. Being recognized as a Charity on BookMooch allows us to aquire many more books to distribute to the participants in our Hero Program. We piloted this program with our Mythic RPG and DM Academy with phenomenal results.

BookMooch, the brainchild of John Buckman, is a global community of online book swappers. The mechanic is simple: offer the books you no longer wish to keep to other BookMoochers and request the books you want to aquire from them. You receive 1 point for every 10 books you've listed, 1 point for each of your books requested and 1 point for every 10 feedback comments on books you've received. The only fees involved are postage fees.

You can also gift points to other BookMoochers. And this is how the Charity operates: BookMoochers who wish to support what we are doing can donate points to Hercules Invictus and with these points we can request books for our programs.

As avid readers, BookMooch is one of our favorite, and most frequented, online communitities. To join, simply click on their logo above or visit http://www.bookmooch.com.

William Davis, Villaume Foundation Board member, presents a check in the amount of $3,750.00 to Jean Kammer and Thor the Barbarian on behalf of First Book.

Dedication to our Community

In addition to offering our own Mythic Initiatives, Hercules Invictus dedicates time and talent to other worthy causes in our community.

First Book - Wayne/Pike is a literacy initiative dedicated to providing children from low-income families the opportunity to own new books.

Hercules Invictus considers it a great honor to help support this noble endeavor in whatever way we can.
