An esoteric and gratuitous experiment in using the Tarot to summon visions of dungeons!
"It turns out that there is considerable overlap between ‘good dungeon’ and ‘effective fortune-telling’ design. Does this speak, at last, to the fabled and feared conduit from D&D to the occult? Perhaps it reveals something fundamental about the ways we find patterns of meaning in the meaningless when we’re creating." - Stu Horvath
Note that this is not a book of random tables or mechanical tools. Rather, it is guidance for those who wish to observe the unapproachable realms of the fantastic.
Includes three system-neutral adventures divined using the methods described:
The Hellmouth
The Witches of Blackwood
Wedlock Dread Lock
New layout & design in tribute to the oh-so-salacious Yellow Book and featuring public domain art from William T Horton.
