Helper cards or player aids are cards that don't go into a deck but are used by players as a tool to help them with gameplay. These cards often act as markers to highlight game states which are otherwise hard to track.

Examples of a helper card or player aid would be tokens, emblems, or the monarch.[1] Most recent helper cards feature an H in the information below the text box instead of the rarity indicator.
