Mythic Table is a project that was started in January 20191, to deliver a quality, easy-to-use VTT that is flexible enough to cater to all your gaming needs. In partnership with World Anvil, and the Open Gaming Network, Mythic Table is expanding its functionality to provide game masters and homebrew creators a platform to buy and sell game assets.

Founder Marc Faulise formulated this as "Productivity is a huge motivator for us."2.

Mythic Table is Open Source3 and will be funded through Patreon, Kickstarter campaigns, and other methods, while all features will stay free to play for all users. No subscriptions. No restrictions. The project can be found on Gitlab.

A usable First Playable was release in late October of 2020 and has gone through several updates since. As of 4/1/2021, the First Playable has over 11,600 subscribed users and averages approximately 345 gamers per day.
