Publisher's blurb:
Hands of Destiny is an open source, quick-play tabletop roleplaying game with an emphasis on story and characters over complicated rules. Instead of dice, Hands of Destiny utilizes decks of standard playing cards. As a player, the hand of cards you hold is used to tactically control your character's fate and the flow of the story, each value and suit being played to assist your character's actions and activate special abilities. The rules codex is designed to accommodate any genre, and with the modular character creation system, nothing is out of reach.
