WHATS IN HERE?
The Deck of Fate is actually three
decks in one! You can combine them
together if it suits your play goals, or
use them separately for a variety of
purposes. In this package youll find:
A 6-card Accelerated Arcana deck:
Six inspirational images, one for each of
the approaches from Fate Accelerated.
A 9-card Core Arcana deck:
Nine inspirational images covering
nine concepts, with aspect style
positive and negative takes on each.
An 81-card Dice Card deck:
Shuffle this deck and draw to simulate
the toss of four Fate Dice. Inspirational
phrases are found on each card to give
you cues on how to interpret the result.
SECRETS OF THE DECK OF FATE
The backs of the cards can double
as fate point counters.
You can shuffle the Accelerated Arcana
and draw from it to randomly determine
your approaches for your Fate Accelerated
character: first draw is the +3, etc.
Draw from the deck to randomly determine a
characters aspector at least get a good startingpoint. This works especially well with the Core
Arcana, but can work with the Dice Cards as well.
If youre not using one or both of the Arcana
decks, consider using a card per player as an
initiative tracker: show the art when you havent
taken your turn yet, flip it over when you have.
Each Dice Card has a set of symbols on it: A
mix of one to three Moons ( ) and/or Suns (
), or an Eclipse ( ). Eclipses are found
on unique cards. More symbols are found on
cards where the dice combination is rarer.
You can tie variable effect stunts into these
symbols; +1 per Moon or Sun, for example, with
a special big effect when an Eclipse is drawn.
