Four kingdoms exist on the sci-fi world called The Deck. Only one of those kingdoms can hold the seat of power; that kingdom is called Trumps. The Diamonds have held the seat of power since the last shuffle but the King of Clubs is waging war to wrest that power from the Diamonds so the Clubs can be trumps. The Queen of Diamonds is sick and on her deathbed, distracting the king from the war. Meanwhile, the Spades and Hearts are powerless and sitting out the fight… or are they? The Queen of Spades is working to convince the Jack of Diamonds to dethrone his king, and then they can unite Diamonds and Spades and become Trumps. Trumps is Game of Thrones meets Lord of the Rings with a sci-fi twist.
