Adventure Word Tarot Readings

Hijinks last night lead to the idea of doing tarot spreads for the various characters in Adventure World! Kit took notes and I transcribed. For those who weren't there - think of it as a story telling tool. Its a way to give you more things to think about for character development,m and to help you figure out history stuff if you haven't fleshed it out. And also give the GM horrible ideas ;p

My characters are first because they're the first ones I copied ;p

We did very general readings with the booklet the cards had, but there are tons of good sites to look at online. I used this one to try to make the weird reading we got for Vedran make sense :p

New reading for Aleyn: (in my deck, shields = pentacles, spears = wands, if you are curious)

Self in relationship to the current situation: Eight of cups (abandoning a path, change of plans, refusing to accept defeat)
Positive forces/assets: Page of shields (tenacious, reliable, resists distractions, hunger for knowledge, a messenger with good news)
Potential/aspirations: King of swords (somewhat unpredictable leader w. revolutionary ideas, power to bring change, commanding presence)
Emotional undercurrent: Three of spears (trade, negotiations, ingenuity, partnerships, early stages of a successful undertaking)
Past events: Five of shields (lack of money and energy, struggling to stay afloat, feeling abandoned, change in fortune, temporary hardships)
Relationships with others: Eight of spears (excitement, events unfolding at great speed, good omens, beginning of an adventure that tests one's limits, decisions made in haste)
Psychological state: Nine of cups (overcoming obstacles, gratitude, goodwill, relief, team united in vision makes success a reality)
Environment/unseen forces: Seven of spears (overcoming adversity, gaining recognition and confidence, encouraging all sides to work together, defending a noble vision)
Hopes and fears: The Moon (unconscious activity, emotions, illusions vs. reality, introspection, searching, intuition, 'sensitivity to mythological undercurrents' (lol))
Outcome: Six of cups (reflection, fond memories, old friends re-enter one's life, efforts of the past come to fruition, happiness as a result of previous kindness, nostalgia)
