Tarot Cards

It seems that when a DORA (unknown if other qualifications are also needed) enters a realm for a first time, two tarot cards appear in their inventory. The cards have been collected together and kept at the Australian Embassy via the twins until a full deck is complete, one of each card, then with magic, the deck is activated. Each individual card has an effect when it is torn of varying power, nature, and duration. Other DORAs also have them and may trade. The activated deck has been dispersed by Joshua MacKay by using the fairest system the adventurers have come up with yet. The activated deck may have a time limit to when it will no longer be usable by GM discretion.

Physical Description
10/13/2019 - Joshua - The Tarot Cards - The Tarot cards are of the Rider-Waite tarot deck design from the 1910/20s. Some of the card designs are slightly different. eg The tower card matched the ruined tower in the Shadow Academy. Alex Kinley was on one of the cards. Maddie was on one of the cards. It will be interesting to see if/when we get those cards if the images have changed.

1/28/2019 - Joshua - As an aside, unlike some of the previous cards we had received (and then taken by the police), these have no deviations of their designs from the Rider-Waite tarot deck as far as we can tell at this stage.

To Whom Adventurers Have Shown Them
Madam What'serface, Rock knows it - swindler who tricks rich people out of money

Gotham Tarot Card Reader - Address blah from Aeolous - said cards were special

Spencer the Psychic in Santa Claus - (the town, northwest of San Angeles) "they each have a special effect if you use them in the right place." He probably wouldn't be hard to track down again - from Glenn James

also advised in DNA/Genetic Testing, and Obed/Joshua body knowledge

Somewhere in Amber - The Rock - each card is special in its own way

Beastkin Fortune Teller - Joshua - According to the fortune teller I consulted in Beastkin (who was the real deal. The fortune she read for me came true) while the individual cards have some magic about them, they won't do whatever it is they are supposed to till an entire deck is put together. Also people will likely be disappointed with the outcome.
