Gnollplaying Tarot
Based on Episode 6 of Deadlaws I decided to build a tarot for the Gnollplaying Games characters. It felt on brand for the witch Madoska to include characters from the future in addition to the people actually looking at them. She's a chaos gremlin like that.
Included flower symbolism in this.
The Fool: Meaning a new journey, new adventure, innocence, naivety. Dandelions; lion's tooth, meaning hope, a wish for the future, and endurance.
Character is Flynn Gorman, who briefly appears in the Deadlaws Epilogue and belongs to Toaster. (Also including Erebus as a leviathan in the sea felt appropriate.
The Magician: Meaning innovation, creativity, willpower, and resourcefulness. Poppies meaning dream, sleep, and a gift from the living to the dead.
