Fools Reborn Update
Creatures of Fate design group's work on the new Fools Reborn TTRPG continues apace, with play testing and intermittent reveals of the gorgeous tarot cards, maps, and other artwork, like this amazing logo:
Take a look at The Hanged Man, one of the gorgeous tarot cards that will accompany the game and will also be sold separately. Keith Hiscox, Lead Designer at Creatures of Fate, says both the main system book and the tarot card deck (used instead of dice for the game's "core resolution mechanic") have a scheduled release window of the first half of 2026.
And for those readers who noted something missing from the books... Yes! There will be MAPS! They will be accurate to the text...and also introduce some new places to explore on your adventures in the Collegia Magica world. They will also be a cool accompaniment for a reread (or first read) of the books!

Also coming in 2026:
Check out the Unbroken Anthology Kickstarter, set to launch April 21 this year. This will be a mammoth anothology of short stories and original illustrations. Carol, alongside 34 other authors, will have a brand new story in it. (Hint: She will be "writing as Cate Glass".)

"When I first read Carol Berg's Collegia Magica trilogy I was struck by the depth, balance, and pace of its world building. Here was a world where fantastic things might occur, but where the characters would strive to comprehend and codify those fantasy elements, applying rational analysis to the supernatural. A world where finely drawn characters narrate the mysteries they encounter through the lens of their own lived experience, overcoming their personal circumstances to act as believably heroic figures. A world where the structural and systemic challenges faced by the protagonists can seldom be overcome by might alone, and one where danger remains real for even the most accomplished agente confides. This was a fantasy world that felt real.
- Keith Hiscox Lead Designer - Creatures of Fate
"I've explored the cities, countryside, and magical places of the Collegia Magica world for many years now. It is thrilling to imagine others discovering adventures of their own along those roads. See you there!"
- Carol Berg, Award-winning author of the Books of the Rai-kirah, the Novels of the Collegia Magica, The Lighthouse Duet, and (as Cate Glass) the Chimera adventures.
