No Thank You, Evil! Equipment Deck
Glorious Gear—Plus the Twelve True Treasures of Storia! When going on adventures in Storia, it helps to have gear that’s as wondrous as the fanciful creatures and places you’ll encounter. And whether it’s a tickle potion, a tyrannosaurus axe, a bunny bomb, or a third arm, having your items on cards makes it fun and easy to choose and use your gear.

Numenera Deck Box
A handy and beautiful way to store, organize, and use your decks! The many Numenera creature, cypher, artifact, ruin, intrusion, and salvage decks are incredibly handy during game prep and at the table. But there are over a dozen of them, and managing them all can be a challenge.

Subtle Cypher Deck
Generate random cyphers on the fly for your modern, sci-fi, or other realistic game Cyphers—single-use abilities that characters gain over the course of play—lie, not surprisingly, at the heart of the Cypher System. In many genres, cyphers come in the form of items, like magic potions, one-shot spell scrolls, or bits of alien technology. But physical items with overt, supernatural-seeming effects don’t fit every setting.

Giants Beneath the Stars
I’m sure it’s no surprise that I’m a life-long fan of science fiction. That means I consumed the sci-fi contents of my grade school, junior-high, high-school, and local libraries, down to the last dregs of sci-fi. In fact, I read many of the books multiple times.
