Draconian WIGHT Playing Cards

Created by Randy Butterfield (Midnight Cards)

Resurrected from the icy depths of winter, Draconian WIGHT Playing Cards are susceptible only to fire and glass.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

Mount Olympus Deck NOW LIVE!
about 2 months ago – Tue, Feb 03, 2026 at 03:01:18 PM

Hey Everyone,

Greek Mythology has been a mainstay on my ideas list. I had a blast creating the Medusa Deck last year, so I decided to go a step further and create a fully-custom Deck with a Greek Gods and Goddesses theme. The Mount Olympus project is now live!

I hand-drew all of the Court characters, Ace creatures and Mount Olympus (Jokers and Back) in pencil on paper. The Kickstarter Exclusive edition has a unique Tuck design that’s printed on a White Luminescent paper stock with Gold Gilded Edged cards inside.

For those that are wondering why I said no more Draconians, below are the main reasons why I pulled the trigger on this design:

(1) The Draconians have always been great post-Kickstarter sellers. After they all sold out, I’ve reprinted the Draconian Wildfire a couple times (my favorite of the original five). The latest Wildfire print run is down to its last few hundred. With the advent of reason #3, I thought it was the perfect time for a new version / series!

(2) RED is my favorite color. I always wanted to do a red background version of Draconians, but back then it was too drastic of a change from the white or black backgrounds of the original five.

(3) FOIL. Foil on the Cards has become much more accessible, affordable and impressive since the original Draconians. This design really sings with Foil! I thought it was time to dust them off and bring them out of retirement.

House of Tudor Playing Cards
almost 3 years ago – Wed, Jun 07, 2023 at 05:14:53 PM

Anne Boleyn, King Henry VIII, Queen Elizabeth I, Bloody Mary.... their names and stories are known throughout the world. I’m proud to release my newest fully-custom design - The House of Tudor Decks!

The Tudor period was one of the most exciting eras in English history, and the Tudor dynasty ruled for over 100 years. I worked painstakingly on every element in the design, so please check it out in the link below. I love how they turned out and I hope you will as well!
