2019 Q2 Adventure Cards

Post by stormwell »

Savage Ravenloft has a Setting Rule called Power of the Tarot, this basically means the use of what is called the Adventure Deck.

The Adventure Deck is an extra deck of cards for Savage Worlds, though rather than determining initiative order they are instead used to provide one-off extra and special effects for the game. Each player draws one card per rank (one for Novice, two for Seasoned, etc) each session, but they can only play one card per session unless they take the Destiny's Child Edge that allows two cards to be used each session. Extra cards can be brought with EP or can be gotten by being a Patron on the site's Patreon, these don't count towards the hold limit and can be played at any time.

The deck (shamelessly stolen from the Deadlands game) can be found here, though ignore the held by labels;

Adventure Deck

Just roll 1d54 and then check column A to see what card you've drawn. This will be done on a first come first served basis, so just reroll if you get a card taken by somebody else.

They can be traded, but must be an actual trade and not just given away.

Play to avoid death, capture, or some other bad situation for your hero or any ally. The situation leads to some new trouble, however, as determined by the GM.
