Playing Cards:
It is fairly common now for standard decks to include two distinct jokers, and if I remember correctly, there are games which use both jokers and give them different roles. There are even decks with more than two jokers, altho they are hardly standard.
In any case, it looks like at least one additional Joker character will be required if playing cards are encoded,
I'd need more explicit information than that, I think, to support the extra character. But I have no objection to it.
Draughts:
No comment.
May one take this as a yes? The same comment about Background applies to Drauughts/Checkers just as it does for Chess.
