About this expansion

Ashes Reborn: The Duchess of Deception is a full, ready-to-play Ashes expansion deck for 2–4 players, with games lasting about 60 minutes. Released in 2016, it introduces the Phoenixborn Victoria Glassfire and a collection of spells, allies, and shadow conjurations.

Victoria Glassfire requires ten Illusion dice to play. These purple dice are included in the Ashes: Rise of the Phoenixborn base set, making this deck an expansion for players with access to that game.

The deck focuses on a broad selection of card types, including Action, Reaction, and Ready Spells alongside Allies. Its spell lineup includes Copy Cat, Figures in the Fog, Particle Shield, Secret Door, Summon Shadow Hound, Summon Shadow Spirit, To Shadows, and Vanish.

  • 1 Victoria Glassfire Phoenixborn
  • 3 Copy Cat Action Spells
  • 3 Flash Archer Allies and 3 Body Inversion Allies
  • 3 each of Figures in the Fog, Particle Shield, and Vanish Reaction Spells
  • 3 each of Secret Door, Summon Shadow Hound, Summon Shadow Spirit, and To Shadows Ready Spells
  • 2 Shadow Hound Conjurations and 3 Shadow Spirit Conjurations

With its illusion requirement and shadow-themed conjurations, Ashes Reborn: The Duchess of Deception adds a distinct ready-to-play card collection to the Ashes setting. The complete deck includes everything listed above, while the required purple Illusion dice come from the base set.
