The Deck of Many Things

Draw a card. Tempt fate. Accept absolutely no responsibility for what happens next.

Dare to draw from one of fantasy role-playing's most legendary magic items with The Deck of Many Things by Hit Point Press.

This beautifully illustrated set brings the infamous deck physically to your table with 23 tarot-sized cards featuring original artwork and easy-reference mechanics, from the promise of Sun, Fate, and Comet to the considerably less reassuring Skull and Avatar of Death.

The set also includes 7 blank CustomEncounter cards for surprises of your own creation and 3 rules cards to keep the chaos moving.

Riches?

Ruin?

There's really only one way to find out.

Tempt Fate at the Table

The Deck of Many Things has earned its reputation for a reason.

A single draw can alter a character's fortunes—and sometimes an entire campaign.

Having a physical deck turns that legendary moment into something wonderfully tangible. Shuffle the cards. Put them in front of the player.

And ask:

Are you sure?

23 Cards of Possibility

The deck includes 23 illustrated cards representing the iconic magical draws, with easy-reference mechanics designed for use during play.

Among them you'll find:

Sun
Fate
Comet
Skull
Avatar of Death

…and the rest of the deck's opportunities for extraordinary fortune and spectacular regret.

We won't tell you which is which.

Where would be the fun in that?

Add Something of Your Own

Alongside the 23 illustrated cards are 7 blank CustomEncounter cards, giving Game Masters room to add their own twists to the deck.

Create a reward.

Create a curse.

Create something your players will still be complaining about three campaigns from now.

Your table. Your consequences.

Made to Be Handled

These are traditional printed cards rather than lenticular cards, produced on durable 350 GSM linen-finish stock.

Each measures 70 × 120 mm, giving the deck the substantial feel and presence of tarot-sized cards.

Three additional rules cards keep important gameplay information close at hand when somebody finally decides to draw.

Why We Love It

It's the magic item made physical. Drawing an actual card is considerably more satisfying—and ominous—than rolling on a table.

The artwork gives every draw a reveal. You don't simply hear what fate has chosen. You turn it over.

The linen-finish stock feels substantial. This is a deck designed to be shuffled, drawn, and handled at the table.

Seven CustomEncounter cards invite homebrew trouble. As though the original deck weren't dangerous enough.

It creates a moment. Put this deck on the table and ask who wants to draw.

Then wait.
