Hobbit Precon - Bilbo, Thief in the Night
deck Bilbo, Thief in the Night
Aug 14, 2026
This deck is intended to exhibit a multitude of aspects of the story in The Hobbit. With various characters he may have met such as Port Inspector and Elvenking's Harper as key includes in the deck. Many instants and sorceries represent key points in the story such as Bilbo's Surge of Brilliance with the riddle and the Moment of Truth when taking down Smaug with the black arrow. Multiple objects of note also appear in the list such as the Tome of Legends Bilbo wrote about his adventures and the Mystic Forge of the Dwarves. The land base has Smaug's Treasure Vault and Secret Passage to represent Bilbo's escape from the lonely mountain.
My intention was that I could think of a passage from the book as flavor text for each and every include, while preserving a burglar-themed play style.
