Show Notes

This week, Fiona is joined by Chloe, Katie, Ellie and Am from the Deck of Many Aces podcast for SHIVER, the award winning tabletop roleplaying game bringing tales of the mysterious, the peculiar and the strange to life.

Published by Parable Games, SHIVER has easy to learn rules which make it fast to play and keep players immersed in chaotic and dark magic filled stories. SHIVER uses symbolic dice to keep players engaged in the story as well as providing a visual role playing aid that does away with pesky arithmetic. Character creation is quick and easy with a simple skill point and ability system that links to the game's dice.

Check out Deck of Many Aces: An actual-play DND podcast made by actual asexuals and aromantics! Each of the four heroes' fate is tied to one of the 22 cards in the “Deck of Many Things”, a DND magical object based on a tarot deck. You can listen to Deck of Many Aces wherever you listen to podcasts!

You can find out more information about SHIVER and grab your own copy of the Parable Games website.
