Description
Tales is a series of playing cards by Thirdway Industries, inspired by Fairy Tales, Fables, and Fantasy Books. Designed by the Italian designer Giovanni Meroni.
The main purpose of these decks is to offer you a vast array of characters with which to tell and create Fairy Tales, for both kids and adults.
There are three fabulous decks in the Tales series: Heroic Tales, Arcane Tales and Legendary Tales (experimental limited edition).
All decks are fully custom and completely different. Here are the card backs:
The court cards of Heroic and Arcane are completely different characters; the courts of Legendary are asymmetric and tell a story on their own. Here are the QoH included in each deck:
Bella (left) is the Heroic QoH; the Wicked Queen Stepmother/Old Witch (center) is the Legendary QoH and the Narcoleptic Princess is the Arcane QoH.
Tales with a Magical twist: Wizards, Faeries, and Enchanted Creatures.
Spades – Pure Magic
Her powerful Magic saves Heroes and Princesses. She can turn pumpkins into carriages with a wave of her wand.
A Wizard who has studied for hundreds of years. His house is none too clean, however, and you shall not pass.
Hearts – Magic Love
A very practical musician, he can charm your pest problems away. Unfortunately, his pipe does not charm princesses.
Sometimes, good guys get the girl, even if they’re big and hairy. The secret, obviously, is the Red Rose.
Clubs – Magic Forest
She is a spirit of the Forest–wild and prone to untamed fits of jealousy. She has a good heart, however, and the dust from her wings can make you fly.
The magnificent King of the Elven Woods looks younger than he is.
Diamonds – The Mountain
One of seven stout brothers, he loves to sing, mine diamonds, and chase Princesses.
A huge giant with a huge heart. He also has a huge appetite, but he’s vegetarian.
