PSYCHE Epic Fantasy Companion — Direct Edition

Build heroes, villains, legends—and the stories that forge them.

Take PSYCHE into worlds of ancient magic, impossible quests, forgotten kingdoms, monstrous creatures, and legendary adventure.

The PSYCHE Epic Fantasy Companion is a genre-specific expansion designed to work with the PSYCHE Core Set, adding four categories that connect your character to a fantasy world—and begin generating the foundations of their story:

• Occupations — Who are they in this world?
• Secrets — What are they hiding?
• Formative Events — What happened to make them who they are?
• Inciting Incidents — What happens that changes everything?

Draw across the categories and PSYCHE starts creating connections almost immediately. A seemingly random occupation collides with a buried secret. A formative event suddenly explains a character's greatest flaw. An inciting incident transforms a collection of interesting traits into the beginning of an adventure.

Use the cards to create protagonists, villains, NPCs, entire adventuring parties—or to throw unexpected complications at characters and stories you already know.

Go deeper into the woods. And further into the dark.

This Direct Edition also includes two 50-card Mini Companions, expanding your fantasy storytelling in dramatically different directions:

FAIRY TALES & FOLKLORE brings the strange logic of old stories into your world: enchanted forests, curses, bargains, transformations, mysterious strangers, impossible tasks, and the things waiting just beyond the firelight.

EPIC FANTASY DARK takes your fantasy characters somewhere considerably less comfortable, adding Clerics, Necromancers, Demonology, and the undead to your creative power.

Mix them into the Epic Fantasy Companion or pull them out whenever your story needs to become a little stranger—or a lot more sinister.

Together, they turn the Epic Fantasy Companion into a massive engine for generating characters, conflicts, histories, adventures, and entire new story directions.
