Musketeers:
Action/Duration/Reaction - $3
+$1
At the start of your next turn, +1 action
---
When you discard this from play, draw an extra card at the end of this turn's clean-up phase.

A duration card the gives 3 different effects over 3 turns. Buy lots of these and you'll be able to play lots of them in sync with each other to do well.

It's a terminal Copper, that's followed by a Fishing Village (without the $1), followed by a Caravan (that's vulnerable to attacks).

(Yes, I know there were actually 4 musketeers)

Edit: Removed the bottom decking. The intention is to have a followable: +$1, at the start of your next turn, +1 action, the turn after, +1 card
Edit 2: Found a happy version.

The idea is that Now/Start of your next turn/Start of the turn after is too hard to follow, even though that's probably what this card would end up feeling like.

The other idea is a sort of self synergising card, but you need to "pace" it correctly

A similar idea would be
Fleet
Action/Duration - $4
+2 Cards
---
At the start of your next turn, +2 Actions

Musketeers is delightfully bizarre: a Peddler with the benefits split over three turns!  It seems like that must make it weak, but it's still enormous fun.  What's the thinking behind the ordering of the +$1 and +1 Action?  It seems like the Action first turn might be more useful so that they can't clash with other actions.  And could the other benefits be boosted a little?  Perhaps +$2 instead? 

Fleet looks much more playable, and I think I quite like it. I'd guess it's stronger than Fishing Village, with occasional hard falls when they bunch together in odd ways.

Why not just say:

Musketeers:
Action/Duration - $3
+$1
At the start of your next turn, +1 action
At the start of your following turn, +1 card

This way you get the full effect when you use TR, KC, Procession, or Band of Misfits

It just seems like it's hard to keep track is all.

Musketeers:
Action/Duration - $3
+1 action
At the start of your next turn, +1 card.
At the end of your next turn's Buy phase, gain a Silver, placing it on top of your deck.

or

Musketeers:
Action/Duration - $3
+1 action
At the start of your next turn, +1 card, then gain a Silver, placing it on top of your deck.

Steal the wording from Outpost.

Musketeers:
Action/Duration - $3
+$1
At the start of your next turn, +1 action.
If you discard this from play next turn, draw up to 6 cards (instead of 5) in that turn's Clean-up phase.

Not bad, but the benefit doesn't stack

Maybe:

Musketeers:
Action/Duration - $3
+$1
At the start of your next turn, +1 action
---
When you discard this from play, draw an extra card at the end of that turn's clean up phase.

[Squidd]

Of course, there's a reason the official durations draw at the start of the next turn -- all sorts of things can happen in between your turns. (Outpost is obviously an exception to this.)

How about cribbing from Haven/NV?

Musketeers:
Action/Duration - $3
+$1
At the start of your next turn, +1 Action, set aside the top card of your deck face down.
At the start of your following turn, put the card set aside into your hand.

[NoMoreFun]

I found a version that seems as simple as possible while preserving the original spirit of the card; it's in the OP now.

There were only 3 musketeers at first, d'Artagnan only becomes the 4th at the end of the story.

Maybe I could give it a 4th effect that only comes in at the end of the game.
A victory point perhaps?

[Davio]

That would be highly thematic.
Maybe if you have at least 4?

All for one, and one for all.

At the bottom of the Musketeers Pile, the randomiser card will instead be:

All for One!
Victory - $4
2VP for every 3 Musketeers in your deck
---
Use this as the placeholder card for musketeers. Place it at the bottom of the pile.

It's a great deal if you piledrive musketeers, but it's not an Alt VP strategy

I'm going to do a fan expansion with a lot of these "special" Randomisers.

Well actually there were lots of musketeers; 3 of them were just more prominent in the story.
