Faunae (pl. fauna) are the non-human (animal) beings with whom we share our world. Each species is completely varied and unique, and within each species, the beings are as diverse as humans. By observing and interacting with the faunae around us, we can gain a better understanding of ourselves, the roles we each play, and our connection to all life. In this way, faunae can serve as archetypes for humanity. This deck comes in 2 editions. The Vibrant Edition shows the vivid and bright side of nature that wishes to be seen - the sunny days, full foliage, and active faunae. The Veiled Edition represents the parts of nature that wish to remain hidden and unseen - the mystery of nature, mists, and the other worlds that lie just beyond the veil. Printed by the USPCC with the same quality and attention to detail as our previous decks. Printed on premium USPCC card stock Classic Air-Cushion finish for ease of shuffling and optimum performance Custom illustrations by Jon Carraher on all of the Court cards, back card, and Jokers as well as custom pip illustrations for the numbered cards.

Masquerade: Mardi Gras Edition is the latest creation in BrainVessel's Artist Series Playing Cards featuring the artwork of International Canadian Artist Denyse Klette. In our previous kickstarter, Masquerade Playing Cards where we created the black and white Masquerade themed deck, we had a stretch goal for the colorized Mardi Gras version of the deck. Unfortunately we did not reach that stretch goal. However we thought the Mardi Gras deck was so special it deserves to be made into its own Kickstarter and we hope you think so to.
