Esk Cards Wiki



Welcome to the Derbalan Shuffle Wiki
Set in the world of Derbalan, this fun, rules-light game used cards instead of dice to generate numbers. Draw a card from the deck for random results, or play one from your hand for a certain result, or to activate one of your class's special abilities.

Though the game's almost ready for playtesting, there's still some stuff that needs sorting out and content that needs to be written. GM guide and NPC monster class abilities are forthcoming. Want to add to the wiki? Visit here.

You Will Need

Class Decks: One deck for each person who intends to play that class. Sharing is possible, but not recommended.

Narrator’s Deck: Also known as the monster deck, this serves for random draws and randomer encounters. Seriously, they’re really random.

Character Sheets: Everyone needs one. An index card will do. Also, something to write with.

Several People: This game is designed for one narrator and about four players.

<p class="MsoNormal">Absolutely No Dice Whatsoever: Yup, none.
