Three Sails Studios @threesailsstudios.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

And finally, the Court of Spades! Spades psychic powers support sharp and decisive action, letting Espers create flashes of clarity and assert control. Powers include Hypnosis, City Speaker (my personal favourite), and Cyber Diver.

Three character illustrations. Sir Bedevere, Goofball, and 'Molotov' Mol.

Three Sails Studios @threesailsstudios.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

Watch out, it's the Court of Hearts! Hearts psychic powers are all about connecting with others, and letting their thoughts and feelings merge with yours, with miraculous results. Powers include Psi-Jammer, Cryokinesis (got to protect those feelings!), and Telepathy.

Three character illustrations. Psi-Hero Blue, Ms. Cherry Sunday, and Evie Dence.

110

Three Sails Studios @threesailsstudios.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

Next, the Court of Diamonds! Diamonds psychic powers encourage you to remain firmly grounded and introspective, and to turn knowledge into raw power. Powers include Summoning, Geomancy, and Precognition.

Three character illustrations. Frostbite, Jahan Sulayman, and Maurice Tricotage.

Three Sails Studios @threesailsstudios.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

First up, we have the Court of Clubs. Clubs psychic powers encourage you to marshal your burning passions and to use creative solutions to solve tricky problems. Powers include Tension Burst, Teleportation, and Pyrokinesis.

Three character illustrations. WING, Bobby 'Bijou' Measures, and Lyra.

At the start of each session, you draw five cards. These cards are your opportunities, the risks you take, the bad ideas you definitely won’t make, right? When the GM calls for a check, you choose a card to play against the target number, and you might add one of your attributes to the value!

Three Sails Studios @threesailsstudios.bsky.social · 17/06/2026

We’ve talked about the narrative side of City of Espers. Now it's time we explored the resolution mechanics! There’s no dice in this game. Just a deck of cards, the luck of the draw, and the choices you make to try and succeed. And did we mention Espers will come with its own custom card deck?

'So, George, Gallows Corner is finished now, and delivered / on its way to all backers. What's the next project you're going to be working on? Just a hint, perhaps?' This. But reverse the sentience and who is living and who is dead. And then make them read the news. #Drift #HangedFromTheGallows

These were supposed to show up before UKGE. They turned up yesterday afternoon. They'll serve other purposes, though, and it's great to feel the weight and hefty of the book at a nearly complete page count! Follow City of Espers on Backerkit: tinyurl.com/ynrc6e3d

Here are the four Turf spreads for the four 'major' Houses featured in the book: Constellation Cord (House of Starfall); Eye in the Sky (House of Oracle); Nada to Vada (House of Fantabulosa); and Singularity Sector (House of Hyperion). Each one lovingly drawn by Shane Melisse.

I got to write two Turf entries in the City of Espers rulebook: Open City, the Turf of the House of Barricade (can you smell roses and gunpowder? It's near!) and Joyous Gard, the Turf of the House of Avalon. Let's dive into the latter. Here it is in the book, complete with text.

Three Sails Studios @threesailsstudios.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

You know when a TTRPG has a mechanic you'll ride or die for? That thing that you will always tell people about? The thing that makes that game THAT game? For me, @theneoncaster.bsky.social made one for City of Espers. It's the main thing that made me want us to publish it. Let's talk Turf!

Four examples of Turf from City of Espers. From top to bottom, Joyous Gard, Pins and Needles, Executive Realness, and Bakuhatsu.

But you don’t have to use one of the Houses in the game book, one of the best bits of the game is creating your own House and Turf. What sort of House do you reckon you’d bring to Zener city? Don't forget to pre-save the Backerkit: tinyurl.com/ynrc6e3d

When a House has forged a strong enough connection, they may develop Turf, a psychic awakening of the city with its own personality & powers. Fantabulosa's Turf is small, just a few blocks from the theatre where people on the run from something supernaturally find their way onto its streets.

Three Sails Studios @threesailsstudios.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

Houses have pre-existing characters to bring into your games, and Fantabulosa is no different! The contortionist Ducky, the magician Riah and the right hand ma’am Doreen make up some of the Espers found here. And perhaps most importantly is Bijou, Mr Measures son who is set to take over soon!

The House of Fantabulosa put on vibrant and saucy shows, thanks to their decades of musical, burlesque and circus skills. Led by the Pearly King, Mr Measures, this musical hall impresario started Fantabulosa to provide a safe haven from the prejudices elsewhere in Zener and beyond.

In CITY OF ESPERS, your characters are part of a House, a group of bonded Espers who work together! Some have existed for years, others are brand new and just developing! Let’s take a closer look at one of these as an example, the House of Fantabulosa. Pre-save the Backerkit: tinyurl.com/ynrc6e3d

So far we've let @theneoncaster.bsky.social have all the fun with the CITY OF ESPERS reveals. Time we get in on the psychic-powered urban action! Let's start with some of my favourite characters, beginning with Ms. Cherry Sunday, corporate maven and all round bad egg. FOLLOW: tinyurl.com/ynrc6e3d

For each new game, I try to do something stylistic that I haven't done before. In Gallows Corner, one of those things was random tables and NPC generators. We didn't have any in Mappa Mundi, and I was dead set on having them here. Some favourites! Back Gallows Corner today! shorturl.at/km3rm

Three Sails Studios @threesailsstudios.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

And those zines? All backers get them as free PDFs! A Spark Takes Hold (intro adventure), The Gold of Greenwood (a dark Robin Hood-esque adventure), The Enemy of My Enemy (factional struggles with Nuns? Yes please!), and the Book of Outlaws, filled with characters to include in your campaigns.

I'm so happy with these new pieces that I can't help but share (at least) one more! In respect for @jcdarcy.bsky.social's love of her home land, I thought I'd share The North with you today. GALLOWS CORNER is live on Kickstarter: shorturl.at/km3rm

The North spread from Gallows Corner. It features a castle and bridge over a river in the upper left corner, a burning village in the upper right, and rolling hills and small forests across the bottom.
