Dexter, the Cursed Magician

I built this deck to take full benefit of Dexter Drake's ability. Indeed, his ability only allow me to replace an asset with a different asset (by title). This is why there are a lot of 1-ofs une this deck, so that you can always replace.

I added in a bit of curse related tech but I found out that there is not enough "curse producing" cards (Faustian Bargain, Promise of Power, ...) to fuel "curse consuming" cards (Shroud of Shadows, Armageddon, ...). With some the XP though, this aspect of the deck can be enforced.

This deck can do a bit of everything (investigate, fight, evade) and is very well suited for solo play.

Some cards need some explanations :

• Colt Vest Pocket can help you in a pinch if you have Showmanship on the table
• Dark Ritual, Lone Wolf, Familiar Spirit, Liquid Courage, Arcane Initiate, Investments : these are all cheap assets. With Dexter, playing them is like banking an action for future use : you play it, use it (or not) and then ditch it to play another asset for no action action and with a cost reduction.

Dexter is also very strong with doom accumulating assets as he can trash them when the become too dangerous. David Renfield is the obvious one here but with XP you can also do interesting things with Abyssal Tome.
