The cards in the parallel investigator series can be identified by the expansion icon (two opposing arrows) before each card's collector number.
Parallel Investigators
Parallel investigators are alternate, print-and-play versions of investigators from existing Arkham Horror: The Card Game products. These investigators, along with their advanced signature cards, are fully playable in any scenario or campaign.
- When building a Zoey Samaras deck, you may choose whether to use the original version or the parallel version of both her front side and her back side. Each version has its own advantages and disadvantages. You can also mix and match the two versions. This means that you can use both original sides, both parallel sides, the original front side and parallel back side, or the parallel front side and original back side.
- Regardless of which version of Zoey you use, you may also optionally upgrade her signature cards to her new advanced signature cards (replacing the original versions). These versions are indicated by the Advanced keyword. These are included only as a set—if you choose to upgrade Zoey's Cross, you must also upgrade Smite the Wicked. Doing so costs no experience, and may be done at any point between scenarios during a campaign. However, once this upgrade is made, it cannot be undone unless you are instructed otherwise.

Zoey had known that she was special ever since God spoke to her one night when she was six years old... the night that terrible fire took away her parents. He told her that He had chosen her from among all the people of the world to be His agent. She would protect the innocent and punish the wicked. Since then, He comes to her in times of trouble, offering guidance and comfort. Zoey now travels from city to city, taking work as a chef to support herself. When she isn't working, she stalks the night, guided by the Lord's voice. Wherever she finds wickedness, she strikes it down without remorse or hesitation.
