Deck of Many Fortunes
$12.50
Set of tarot cards to grant blessings and malisons to your Ironsworn or Starforged character.
A mythical artifact that alters reality and circumvents the laws of the universe
The Deck of Many Fortunes is a tarot deck conceptualized to offer blessings and malisons for Ironsworn and Starforged. Designed for any fantasy or science fiction setting, this object of power bends the ruleset by providing 78 cards, each with a blessing and a malison, for a total of 156 different ways to twist the mechanics of your sessions.
The Deck of Many Fortunes could be, diegetically, an artifact, a magic item, or a product of occult science. The plaques that compose it, however, do not create narrative scenarios nor substantially interfere with the fiction. Instead, they set a premise that mechanically affects your character, and, although not campaign-breakers, these effects will impact your gameplay, giving you a boon or a hindrance.
The 8-page companion document presents:
- The fictional presentation of the deck, with default assumptions that define its nature.
- 3 quest starters to integrate this artifact into the diegesis, each one compatible with fantasy and sci-fi settings.
- 3 suggested origins for this artifact of power that span the spectrum of the fantasy and sci-fi genres.
- Guidelines for use of the deck, with 4 alternative uses and their instructions.
- A table of contents for the cards that also serves as a random table to draw from and as an overview of what each card represents in the tarot.
A versatile supplement for Ironsworn and Starforged
Besides the vanilla use of the deck, which implies the use of two self-contained moves to determine when you are worthy of drawing a card and what its effect is, the companion document offers 4 alternate uses for the Deck of Many Fortunes. You may also use this supplement as:
- A compendium of blessings and malisons.
- A new mechanic for character progression.
- A supplement that generates mechanical events to spice the game up.
- As a Pandora’s Box of uncompromised chaos.
