Patrice Hathaway - giving it a try

This is a Patrice Hathaway deck built for the waking side of The Dream-Eaters in a three-player group alongside Diana Stanley as the primary fighter and Amanda Sharpe as the main cluever.

The goal of the deck is not to compete with either specialist, but to act as a flexible stabilizer that keeps the team functioning when scenarios become chaotic. Rather than leaning heavily into Mystic cards, I wanted to build Patrice primarily around her Survivor identity, both because the group already includes a Mystic-heavy investigator and because I have played that style before. The deck therefore focuses on tempo, mobility, discard synergy, and reactive play instead of spell-based scaling.

Cards like Cornered, Live and Learn, Winging It, and Look what I found! allow Patrice to turn awkward hands and failed tests into value, while Track Shoes helps manage Dream-Eaters’ demanding maps and movement pressure.

The deck’s strengths should be flexibility, consistency, mobility, and crisis management, while its weaknesses are lower sustained damage output and potentially fragile horror management before upgrades like Peter Sylvestre arrive.

That said, this build is still entirely untested, so this is much more of a theorycrafted concept than a proven list. The overall idea is to create a Patrice deck that smooths out difficult situations and supports the team through adaptability rather than raw power.

Feedback more than welcome.
