Hand of Kāos

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The Hand of Kāos is a deck of playing cards which can also serve as a random dice result generator. The deck uses a stylistically modern interpretation of the four Swiss suits (Roses, Acorns, Bells, and Shields) and includes 54 cards: an Ace, numbered cards (2-10), a Jack, a Queen, and a King for each suit, plus 2 Jokers.

With its built-in polyhedral dice randomizer, the Hand of Kāos can be used as cards or dice for tabletop roleplaying games, card games, or board games, but be warned — drawing more than one card without re-shuffling the deck wreaks havoc on standard dice probabilites. But then, perhaps a little mayhem is to be expected given the name of the deck…

Designed by Anthony Alipio, the Hand of Kāos is compatible and ideal for use with Kāos Engine games from VSR Ink such as Turbo Shifters.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
