Meta Cards: "Magic" Items For Players (D&D 5e)

Additional content for your 5th edition campaign.

This article covers two kinds of Meta Cards. Absentee Cards are special single-use tokens players get when a member of the party can’t make the session but the game must go on! Their somber siblings are Memorial Cards, tokens received during character creation when a player’s last adventurer has unexpectedly perished.
