Cypher GM Screen

$30

14 purchased

Cypher is built to keep the mechanics out of the GM’s way. The players roll all the dice (and Cypher’s narrative tools don’t rely on fudging results anyway), so there are no rolls to hide. Even so, sometimes it’s handy to have key game info at the GM’s fintertips, and to keep notes and secrets away from players’ prying eyes. Printed on heavy board stock, this screen features beautiful and inspiring artwork. Cypher’s vibe is collaborative—so the screen's landscape format isn’t so tall it isolates the GM from the players. And if you want the info but not the barrier, it’s made to lay flat on the game table, so the GM can reference it without anything between them and the players. In addition to the screen in print, you also get this item in PDF.

Cypher Deck

$20

10 purchased

A deck full of cyphers—single-use abilities with extraordinary effects. Because they are frequently encountered and quickly used, writing out a cypher and its effects on a character sheet (only to erase it half a session later) can be a bit of a drag. And pulling out the corebook to roll on a big random table can slow down the game. A deck of cyphers eases both problems—draw a card to generate the cypher randomly, then simply hand it to the player to be kept until used. In most genres, cyphers are intangible—blessings, inspiration, or simply a meta-game benefit for the player’s use. That's what this deck is full of. In addition to the deck, this add-on includes access to the digital version (including the PDF) via the new Datasphere Deck Tool. See the main page for more info on this innovative new way to make the most of your decks.

A deck full of manifest cyphers—single-use items with extraordinary effects. Because they are frequently encountered and quickly used, writing out a cypher and its effects on a character sheet (only to erase it half a session later) can be a bit of a drag. And pulling out the corebook to roll on a big random table can slow down the game. A deck of cyphers eases both problems—draw a card to generate the cypher randomly, then simply hand it to the player to be kept until used. In some genres, cyphers take the form of potions or scrolls, or bits of inscrutable alien technology, and that's what you'll find in this deck. In addition to the deck, this add-on includes access to the digital version (including the PDF) via the new Datasphere Deck Tool.

Divination Deck

A limitless font of GM inspiration and time-savings in deck format. The 50 cards of this deck each feature a divinatory image that inspires all sorts of ideas on the fly. Draw the Raven? It's a bad omen in the game, but the accompanying booklet also ties it to a cypher, a manifest cypher, a GM intrusion idea, an NPC, a creature, an asset for a player, a trait for an NPC, an interesting event, and even the upcoming weather. Tarot-sized and packaged in a durable, attractive box, this deck can be used as an in-game prop, an aid for the GM, or both at once. It's an awesome source of inspiration and ideas while running or in prep—yet another way Cypher helps you make the most of your imagination! In addition to the deck, this add-on includes access to the digital version (including the PDF) via the new Datasphere Deck Tool.

Breathe life into an infinite variety of NPCs—for any campaign! Whether you're fleshing out characters during game prep, or need a bit of inspiration when a game session goes in an unexpected direction, the 100-card NPC Deck helps you bring your NPCs to life with details of their appearance, personality, abilities, and possessions—even their names. Just draw a card—each card gives you a first and last name (as well as a fantasy name alternative); details of appearance, demeanor, and personality; modifications to the NPC’s level; and a distinguishing feature or item. The deck includes 100 distinctive ready-to-use NPCs for a vast variety of roles. Or create an infinite variety of NPCs by drawing several cards and mixing elements from the results. Either way, use them as described, or riff on the suggestions with your own ideas. You'll never be short of inspiration! NPCs in Cypher are so easy: just create a role to fill—shopkeeper, mobster, duke’s seneschal, street urchin, ship captain—and assign the NPC a level. With the NPC Deck, the details that bring the character to life are just as easy! And with almost no mechanical content, this deck is handy and inspirational no matter what game you're playing. In addition to the deck, this add-on includes access to the digital version (including the PDF) via the new Datasphere Deck Tool.

GM Intrusion Deck

$20

10 purchased

GM intrusions are part of what makes Cypher so fluid, fast-paced, and narrative-focused—and a real joy to GM! A good GM intrusion introduces an unexpected factor that spices up a scene, creates a turning point in an adventure, or throws a little wrench into the PCs’ best-laid plans. Sometimes GMs prepare them in advance, but often they occur spontaneously, where the GM sees a cool opportunity or a d20 roll results in that dreaded “1.” But coming up with just the right intrusion on the fly can sometimes challenge even the best GM’s creativity. At the table, or in prep, it helps to have a little inspiration! The GM Intrusion Deck gives you 300 intrusion ideas on 100 cards. Each card offers a combat intrusion, a social intrusion, and an intrusion for miscellaneous situations. Need an intrusion on the fly, or some inspiration when planning your game? Just draw a card. Or draw two or three, and pick the one you like—or just use them to inspire some other great idea. Save time and effort, and free your creativity with the GM Intrusion Deck! In addition to the deck, this add-on includes access to the digital version (including the PDF) via the new Datasphere Deck Tool. See the main page for more info on this innovative new way to make the most of your decks. This title is delivered early.

The Weird

$55

10,000+ incredible ideas that will make your game—any game!—even more engaging and memorable! A magical bow that creates snakes and looses them like arrows. A sorcerer whose powerful spells feed off their own brain tissue, slowly killing them. A man accompanied by the (friendly?) floating eye of a slain demon lord. A sword that inflicts wounds that scream. A gun that fires intelligent bullets. The Weird contains more than 100 lists of ideas, each over 100 entries long—that’s well over 10,000 (more like 12,000) mind-bending bursts of inspiration. The lists are organized by genre, so you can easily reference those best suited for your game, whether it’s science fiction, horror, fantasy, or whatever. Use them during game prep or on the fly to build great characters, encounters, or campaigns. And they're all exactly as weird as you need. You may want something completely over the top—or maybe your campaign is a bit more traditional. Not every game calls for the same level of weirdness. There are different kinds of weird, and they aren’t just a hierarchy or a matter of degree. They have different moods, different tones, and different uses in a game. The Weird puts every prompt into a category: Interesting, Surprising, Gonzo, and Whimsical. The Weird is an amazing game aid no matter what genre, or even game system, you're into. In addition to the book in print, you also get this title in PDF. This title is delivered early.
