The Deck of Fates is an Oracle Deck storytelling tool for GMs who want to breathe more life into their games with genuinely unpredictable and narratively deep outcomes.
On one level, the Deck of Fates is a deluxe Oracle deck, ideal for spiritual practice, personal reflection, and intuition building.
For Storytellers and players of Tabletop Roleplaying games, the deck becomes something more; a tool that prompts narrative hooks, bringing the hand of fate to the play table; sometimes hailing disaster, other times heralding boons, but always bringing richness and the unexpected.
Together with our award-winning artists, we bring evocative and darkly fantastical card art, which will work perfectly with nearly any TTRPG.
Whether you want to reward a player with a random card they can play at will, or to make a three card draw to dictate the general feel of that week’s session, or to help you write an entire sandbox narrative, the Deck of Fates is always there to support you.

The Quick Start & Zines: Playable Tutorials For The Deck
First is the Call to Power quickstart which consists of the basic rules for an original TTRPG alongside a replayable adventure with the Deck of Fate at its focal point – empowering you to play with the Deck right out of the box.
Meanwhile, each Zine is a self-contained adventure using a different Game System with the Deck in a new, unique way.
Initial Zine options feature:
Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition: A classic fantasy adventure using the Deck the way it was first designed
Mazes: Pass around cards and build the dungeon as you discover it.
A Brand-New Solo TTRPG by Critical Kit: Let the Deck be your Game Master as you play a self-contained adventure all by yourself
Stretch Goals will unlock more game systems & adventures, decided by Backers via poll!
All Backers who pledge for one or more Zines will decide which ones they want after the crowdfunding campaign ends and all options are finalized!
As we fund well past our initial goal, we're able to do even more -- giving everyone a better experience all around.
We partner with another, new publisher to give you even more Zines to pick from! Maybe the creators of Idols of the Neon Dark or Alice is Missing or an entirely new one -- the community gets to decide!
