Psyche Steampunk Companion - Direct Edition
Characters for an age of invention, intrigue, and impossible machines. Take PSYCHE into a world of steam-powered wonders, gaslit streets, secret societies, daring expeditions, rigid social conventions, and technology racing dangerously ahead of its time. The PSYCHE Steampunk & Victorian Companion is a genre-specific expansion designed to work with the PSYCHE Core Set, adding four categories that connect your character to their world—and begin generating the foundations of their story: Occupations — What place do they occupy in this rapidly changing world? Secrets — What must they keep hidden behind closed doors? Formative Events — What experiences made them who they are? Inciting Incidents — What sets your character on their journey? Draw across the categories and PSYCHE begins making unexpected connections almost instantly. An eccentric profession collides with a dangerous secret. A buried event from the past suddenly explains a character's ambitions. An Inciting Incident sends an inventor, aristocrat, explorer, criminal, scientist, or ordinary citizen hurtling into an adventure they never expected. Use the cards to create protagonists, villains, adventurers, inventors, investigators, rogues, aristocrats, revolutionaries, explorers, and entire casts of characters inhabiting your alternate nineteenth century. The Steampunk & Victorian Companion is built for steampunk, Victorian adventure, gaslamp fantasy, alternate history, Gothic tales, historical mysteries, and retrofuturist worlds filled with invention and possibility. Combine it with your PSYCHE Core cards to discover not simply who your character is, but where they belong in their world, what they're hiding, what shaped them—and what happens next. Fire the boilers, Wind the gears – Your next story is ready to move. What's Included PSYCHE Steampunk & Victorian Genre Companion PLEASE NOTE: This collection contains no PSYCHE Core cards. It is designed as a genre companion to the PSYCHE Core Set. If you're completely new to PSYCHE, we recommend starting with the PSYCHE Core + Contemporary Collection and adding this companion to take your characters into the age of steam. DIRECT EDITION: This collection contains the finished PSYCHE cards from our Complete Boxed Set, packaged by hand in a sturdy card collector box with a custom PSYCHE label. This special packaging is available exclusively through Reckless Deck direct sales and live events and is not the final retail packaging planned for future individual PSYCHE releases.
