"We're tired of being taken advantage of in this soul-crushing galaxy. 

The mega corps get relief funds. We get to work the relief shifts. 

They report record profits. We report record hours.

Now we are free.  

Now we will report our own record profits. 

Right from the coffers of the corps."

A Suit For Every Story

Within the C22 system, each suit in your deck relates to a particular skill and attribute to your character. Like other deck-building systems, optimizing your character skills in combination with the cards in your deck will be an ongoing task as you progress through your adventure.

For example, if you want to evolve your character into a sneaky, high DPS sword master, you will want to optimize your deck around Diamonds and Spades. As you level, you will remove some of the hearts and clubs to replace them with diamonds and spades, thus forever altering your character’s luck.

This focus on creativity and choice is not only for the Players, The system is designed to make the GM’s job easier with multiple tools to inspire challenges and complications for the players. Boards allow a visual representation of progress, and the suits can be used to define the flavor of the particular step. Countdown stacks can provide mechanical tension to a scene to mirror the narrative. Finally a unique deck for a Mission or dungeon can create a unique flavor to each challenge the players face.

The C22 system has a flexible framework for skills and effects that can being easily modified and applied to fit any era or setting imaginable.  The rules contained on this site can provide the framework to tune the system to your specific story. The Dealer’s Handbook will detail the process of customizing C22.
