Magic Deck of Cards
So, I was reading over a thread about the Deck of Many Things and I remembered a magic deck of cards that I created as one of my many "useless" magic items. However, now I want to create a magic deck of cards that's actually useful, so I turn to the Playground for help! I've been working to assign different attributes to different cards, but I could use some help.
This is what I have thus far:
If any regular card of the following types are drawn:
Spades: ?? Perhaps Status or Augury, based on one of the Idiom meanings.
Hearts: Possessor of the card gains the benefits of the False Life spell.
Diamonds: Possessor of the card gains the benefits of the Barkskin spell.
Clubs: Possessor of the card summons a Spiritual Weapon in the form of a club.
Kings: ??
Queens: ??
Jacks: ??
Joker: Possessor of the card is affected by the Hideous Laughter spell (no save.)
Trying to stick with 2nd level spells for the time being. Determining the price also seems a bit difficult, unless I handwave it as a Lesser Artifact. I thought I'd have it so each card only works, say, once per week and once all the cards are spent, they must be shuffled to recharge.Last edited by Jergmo; 2010-06-29 at 06:13 PM.
SpoilerDM: "Sunder the wall?! WT**** kind of tactics are these!?"
Me: The kind that armies have been using for millennia.
DM: They didn't do it with swords!
Me: Which makes us so much cooler.
Player: Where are the babau in relation to everyone else?
Me: They're right behind you. Vesil is covered in Loki's blood. That is their location in relation to you.
Player: I was just wondering about a fireball.
