One thing I have done is added a 5th suit, Gold, which is like the opposite of

Black/Doom. This is a suit that is always Trump but like Doom, there are very few
cards in it.
The White (Hero?) suit should have the same amount and distribution of cards that
the Doom suit has so that means;
123+
34+
45+
56+
67+
78+
89+
10+
16 cards: 8+, 8Another thought that came up in an old thread for using the Doom SuitReverse it. The GM pulls the Doom cards out of the Fate Deck and starts with ALL of
them. He can play them against the heroes starting RIGHT AWAY as he/she sees fit.
One the GM has played a certain fraction of them (let's say 3/4), then the HEROES
can start playing them back against the VILLAINS.
This more accurately reflects comics whereby the heroes start with the 'deck
stacked against them' with early setbacks, then slowly but surely struggle to victory.

Resurrection Chart
LET THERE BE LIFE!!!
Simply put: When a Hero or (with a little adaptation) a character dies...draw a card.
Match up number and suit and cross-reference with the chart!
STRENGTH
1: Revived as a vampire, lycanthrope or other supernatural creature. (See RRGtE for
details on supernatural creatures.)
2: The Hero's mind is placed in a robot body. (See RRGtE for info on androids. Robot
body grants Life Support 15, Invulnerability to Aging, Disease and Poison as well.
Any other new powers or whatnot can be worked out between the Narrator and
player.)
3: Hero lies in a coma.
4: The wound really wasn't fatal.
5: The hero "got better".
6: Not sure who was a clone/replica, but both her and the Hero survived.
7: Hero is revived by a God or Cosmic Force as a reward for her heroism.
(Think Roma reviving The X-Men.)
8: Revived by a Cosmic Entity to serve it. (Think Galactus resurrection Morg to
resume his duties as Herald.)
9: The Hero is bonded with another person to save one or both people's lives.
(Captain Marvel and Rick Jones, for example.)
AGILITY
1: Hero is revealed to be an immortal mutant. (Think Cannonball in the early issues
of X-Force.)
2: Hero is revived by combining with an alien being. (I had an example but dangit, I
lost it.)
3: Not sure who the clone was, but someone is dead.
4: Hero survives, but gains a new Hindrance, most likely a Physically Disabled one.
5: Hero revealed to be a fast healer. (gains Regeneration at a random intensity or as
determined by the Narrator.)
6: Raised by a cult to serve them, but the hero rebels and escapes them. (Much like
Elektra did when revived by The Hand.)
7: Hero's body stored in a regenerative cocoon while the hero is replaced with a
Cosmic Force posing as the hero. (Think Jean Grey and Phoenix.)
8: Four new, "similar" heroes arrive...all laying some claim to the mantle of the
original hero. Some ideas include a man in a powered suit, a younger clone, a
cyborg and a ruthless anti-hero. (Guess where this came from...)
9: A clone heroically died in the hero's place, the hero swears vengeance.
INTELLECT

1: Hero is transported into the future. (Narrator can pick where, or she can use a
random draw from the RRGtE.)
2: Future version of the hero travels back in time and decides to stay.
3: Hero is revived without her memory, shows up as an amnesiac "villain" opposing
the hero's former team.
4: The hero is dead, but a new character takes up the hero's mantle.
5: Revived by the government or a secret agency thereof to perform a mission.
Narrator's discretion as to whether the hero is asked or coerced.
6: Younger version of the hero is cloned from dead cell tissue. (Modify all attributed
appropriately.)
7: Hero has an identity crisis and changes identities. A new calling may be
appropriate as well. (To try to change back to his old persona and confront the
trauma requires a daunting Willpower action, failure resulting in a nervous
breakdown.)
8: The hero is dying, but a scientific process that may grant her new powers saves
her life. (A high-tech example being Tony Stark designing the chest plate that kept
his heart beating and then developing the Iron Man armor from there.)
9: The hero is revived by a futuristic machine.
WILLPOWER
1: The hero is trapped on the Astral Plane until a new body can be found.
2: Hero is revived by a God to serve as his earthly avatar. (Or whatever Moon
Knight's origin is.)
3: The hero is mortally wounded a mystic process is required to save his life. (think
Psylocke and the Crimson Dawn.)
4: The hero is shifted to another dimension or reality moments before death.
(Think the little trick Franklin Richards pulled right before his family and all the
heroes would have died.)
5: Dead until the "anniversary issue".
6: Hero's mind is transferred to another body moment's before death. (Think Jean
Grey shifting her mind into White Queen's body to survive a Sentinel attack.)
7: An alien technology saved the hero's life. (Think Xavier being saved by Shi'ar
technology when he was possessed by a Brood Queen.)
8: The hero's body is frozen in a state of suspended animation to be revived later.
9: The hero is revived by a sorcerer because it is "not his time".
DOOM
1: The hero survives, but not without a cost. She is constantly battling a virus,
imprisoned inside armor that keeps her alive, etc.
2: The hero is revived by a criminal gang for a specific mission.
3: The hero is revived as a normal human, but offered a criminal process to restore
her powers.
4: The hero is not killed, but now the arch-rival knows her identity.
5: A surgically altered actor/actress died in the hero's place, and the real hero is

being held captive by a supervillain.


6: An alien shapeshifter died in the hero's place, the hero is now revealed to be
missing.
7: The hero is brought back with new powers to serve a supervillian. Brainwashing
will almost certainly accompany this.
8: The hero's soul is revealed to be imprisoned by a mad God or demonic force.
9: The hero returns more powerful than before, setting out to take over/destroy the
world.
10: Dead. I mean Bucky dead. Deader than a doornail. The kind of dead that just
doesn't happen anymore.
