Become a master storyteller
Create your next campaign idea in 3 steps
-
1) Draw cards.
The deck's five card types represent the basic elements of story. Combine them to create story ideas, character prompts, and more.
-
2) Rotate cues.
Cards have multiple suggestions, called cues. Rotate cards to change cues, customize your prompt, and spark new creative ideas.
-
3) Write.
When you’re happy with your prompt, start writing! If you get stuck, the included guidebook will help troubleshoot your idea.
