Encounter Building

The Encounter Building Cards are a set of cards I developed to help with solo RPG play.  The original set of four decks were my first ever venture into the publishing world and were a true labor of love.  My goal was to have decks of cards that together would allow players to play their favorite RPG without a GM.  Personally, the goal was solo RPG play.  Since then, solo play has now become mainstream, and it was really cool to be on the leading front of that movement.  While there are certainly more sophisticated and streamlined solo engines available now, these card decks have stood the test of time.

  • Decisions – This deck is the main Yes/No oracle as well as descriptive words.
  • Locations – Explore different terrains through randomly generated environments.
  • Traps – 120 different traps on 60 cards.
  • Combat – Put together combat encounters including enemy strategies on the fly.
  • Oracle – This deck is a 100 tarot-sized cards that reimagine standard tarot meanings to fit a fantasy RPG better as well as providing a Yes/No oracle and much more info all on a single card.
