CASTLE OLDSKULL - The Deck of Many Things (Tarot Card Set)
 |
This is a striking¸ full-color deck of 22 large tarot cards¸ designed to serve as a Gygaxian Deck of Many Things. If you open your favorite 1979 Game Master's Guide hardcover to page 142¸ you will find the Advanced 1E Swords & Sorcery rules that govern the play of this powerful magic item.
The cards are delineated as follows: I Sun¸ II Moon¸ III Star¸ IV Comet¸ V Throne¸ VI Key¸ VII Knight¸ VIII Gem¸ IX Void¸ X Flames¸ XI Skull¸ XII Talons¸ XIII Ruin¸ XIV Euryale¸ XV Rogue¸ XVI Balance¸ XVII Jester¸ XVIII Fool¸ XIX Vizier¸ XX Idiot¸ XXI Fates¸ XXII Dungeon. Names and numerals appear in Veritas (Oldskull) font for ease of reference. Each card has an identical back of a medieval skeleton¸ so that players can draw at random and not know the true identity of any card.
Art has been carefully curated and each card is designed to fit the Castle Oldskull theming of the deck. Featured artists include de Scevola¸ Dore¸ Hughes¸ Matejko¸ Raphael¸ Rembrandt¸ Rubens¸ Tiepolo¸ Waterhouse¸ and others. I have included an in-card-scale PDF file of all 22 cards as well.
Happy tempting of the fates. May you never draw Death or Void ...
(Note that the PDF cost of this item is set at $0.99¸ but the PDF in and of itself will not be very useful to you unless you want it as an art gallery. This item is intended for print purchase¸ providing you with a set of 22 physical in-hand cards delivered to your address by DriveThruRPG. The PDF is for your reference and personal printing if desired.)
