Rules

Dvorak

Dvorak is played with cards, and there are two traditional types of card - Things and Actions. When you play a Thing card, it goes onto the table in front of you and stays there, usually having a useful effect while it remains in play; when you play an Action card, it does whatever it does and goes to a discard pile.

Take the deck of cards, shuffle it, and deal five cards to each player (which they hold in their hand where other players can't see). The rest of the cards go in the middle of the table as a face-down draw pile, and whenever a card is discarded or destroyed, it goes into a face-up discard pile.

Starting with a random player, you take turns in order. A turn consists of:

  • Drawing the top card from the draw pile. (If the draw pile's empty, shuffle the discard pile and turn it over to make a new draw pile.)
  • Playing up to two cards from your hand. You can play one Thing and one Action per turn (or just one of those, or no cards at all).
  • Checking your hand size; if you have more than five cards, discard down to five.

The game continues until somebody meets the deck's victory condition.

A Practical Guide to Evil

Side decks

At the beginning of the game, shuffle the different side decks apart from the main deck of cards and apart from each other. Cards can only be drawn from the side decks on particular conditions.

Side decks each have a discard pile of their own.

Draw phase

At the beginning of your turn, instead of drawing a card, you can choose to discard as many cards as you want from your hand, and draw that many cards.

Win condition

To win, you must control 3 different Stories, or control all the Named of the deck (only the Dead King can fulfill this win condition, cf. Special cards/The Dead King).

A Story doesn't count for the win condition if it has markers on it.

Stories

A Story :

  • can be played when its Condition is met and if you control a Named.
  • can be played maximum once each turn (each turn, you can play a Story and/or a Thing and/or an Action).
  • resolves its Effect when it is played.

If at any point, you don't control any Named, you must destroy all your Stories.

Named

Named is a generic term that englobes Vilains and Heroes.

A Named can have built-in Aspects that work like Aspect cards.

Aspects

An Aspect :

  • can be played when its Condition is met.
  • can always be played as a Reaction, even when it is not your turn.
  • must be played attached to an Eligible Named.
  • resolves its Effect when it is played.

Each Named can have a maximum of 3 Aspects.

When a Named uses one of its Aspect (i.e. activate its effect when it is already in play), put a marker on it. Each player removes the markers on his Aspects at the beginning of his turn. A Named can only use one of its Aspect if none of its Aspects has a marker on it. You can use an Aspect in play as a Reaction if it has "(R)" in his name, even when it is not your turn.

When playing an Aspect, resolving its effect put a marker on it, but you can still activate an Aspect your Named already had. You can play an Aspect on a Named, even if there is a marker on one of its Aspects.

Band of Five

Each player cannot control more than 5 Named, and a Band of Five must be composed exclusively of Vilains or exclusively of Heroes (except when Team up ! is in play).

Followers

Some Named are Followers. this means that when you play them, you need to choose a non-Follower Named you control to become their Leader. You can't play a Follower if you don't control a non-Follower Named.

A Leader can't be targeted as long as a Follower follows it.

Transitional Names

These are Named who aren't Vilains or Heroes, and can be part of any Band of Five.

If you control a Transitional Name, you must sacrify it when you play a Named of the same class (Combat, Magic or Trick).

Special cards

Some cards work very particularly. Because their text is so long, it is written here and only summarize on the card.

Rule of Three

The Story card Rule of Three.

Condition:

  • Play this card in reaction when one of your Named is destroyed by an opponent
  • You still need to control at least one Named
  • You can't have multiple Rule of Three linked to the same opponent.

Effect:
On playing it:

  • Put two markers on it.
  • This Story is link to the opponent mentioned in the condition. He is thereafter refered to as the linked opponent.

As long as there is exactly 2 markers on the card:

  • If you destroy one of the linked opponent's Named or he destroys one of yours, destroy this card.
  • One full turn after playing this card, remove one marker from it.

As long as there is exactly 1 marker on the card:

  • The linked opponent cannot destroy any of your Named.
  • When you destroy one of the linked opponent's Named, remove the last marker from this card.

The Dead King

The Vilain card Neshamah, The Dead King.

  • You can't play the Dead King if you already control a Named.
  • As long as you control the Dead King, you can't play or gain control of other Named.
  • The only way to get control of a Named is to destroy it, then he comes in your control as a Revenant instead of going to the discard pile.
  • When you play the Dead King, each opponent sacrifies a Named (who then becomes a Revenant under your control).
  • The number of Revenants you control is not limited.
  • No opponent can gain control of the Dead King or a Revenant.
  • The Dead King can't be destroyed as long as you control a Revenant.
  • The Dead King and the Revenants can't learn any new Aspects.
  • Revenant don't count as Named for Stories.
  • If an opponent manages to kill the Dead King, its card becomes a Story and this opponent gains control of it.
  • The Dead King's Story is not destroyed when its owner controls no Named.
