The Tarokka Reading

Madame Eva read the characters a reading of their future with a deck of Tarokka cards. Before she could do the reading, however, she told them that she must first uncover the heroes pasts in order to learn their futures. She holds each of their hands and turn, and as she stares at they her eyes glaze over, the pupils and irises disappearing until solid white orbs stare deep into them.

This is what she says about each:

  • Bogdan Gromov
    • Child of a monastery, you have wandered far from your path. But do not fret, there are forks in the road ahead, and your curiosity will lead you back to the Sun before your days are done.
  • Yenkin Martran
    • Half a king, half a man, son of him called Short, I see you. I see your fingers itching, twitching, but know that if you so much as pocket a handful of sand in my tent, I shall curse you such that you will wish to be back in the halls of your uncle.
  • Clementine Laergulben
    • Daughter of Dragons, you have not yet unlocked your full power. Awaken the ghost of Argynvost and ask him to tell you more.
  • Brume the Pale
    • You may not know your own past, Brume, but I do. I know of you indeed, Nelchael, “Sword of Thunder”. The Lord of Morning is not your holy father, he is more of an indulgent uncle.
  • Tamar Silveira
    • Your soul smells of kobold, wild Moonthing. You do, however, wish to desire a trait known to many Vistani, though you know it not. Speak with Oleg outside after and ask about ‘his famous list’.





She then proceeds to do the reading.
