“Their failure becomes another character’s chance to shine.”

Fumbles and Foibles cards offer a fun alternative to the forever memes about the terrible consequences of rolling a 1.

Rolling a 1 is only an automatic failure in combat and on Death Saves. But what about skill checks and saving throws in the heat of battle? What happens when a failed Intimidation or Perception check can turn the tide of combat?

Do you not seek to be entertained?

That’s where Fumbles and Foibles comes in.

These cards provide suggested optional rules for turning ordinary failures into epic, chaotic, and entertaining moments at the table, while still giving players a choice. A player may accept a short-term complication, embarrassing setback, or ridiculous twist in exchange for creating a boon for another character, allowing their failure to become someone else’s chance for glory.

Built for chaos, creativity, and laughs, Fumbles and Foibles mixes high humor, pop-culture references, nostalgia, sarcasm, and just the right amount of cringe into your game.

For the best experience, we recommend letting players choose whether to draw a card. These cards can also be used for NPCs at the GM’s discretion without throwing the game out of balance.
