Type : Hardcover Tarokka cards. The deck of illusions. The deck of many things. The words and images of a deck of cards may hold great sway over the world, or at least the lives of the adventurers within. Even a mundane game of Three-Dragon Ante could carry wagers with far-reaching repercussions.
For many adventurers, the legendary deck of many things is a source of chaos. It is powerful, but its unpredictable nature has left many souls impoverished, ruined, or dead— perhaps even more than those it has blessed. However, once a card is drawn, it vanishes and returns to its deck, leaving the party to wrestle with the fallout.
The Tarot of Transcendent Treasure bears little in common with the deck of many things. Whereas the deck of many things is a singular magical item, the Tarot is a vast collection of magic items, ranging from mundane trinkets to artifacts capable of turning an adventurer’s world on its head. The Tarot of Transcendent Treasure is not an interruption to a party’s adventure, but instead, may become an adventure in itself; once one has a taste of the deck’s power, they are likely to seek out more.
Every card within the Tarot of Transcendent Treasure holds two forms. In its natural, inactive state, a card appears like any other playing card or fortune card, with an unremarkable backing and strange imagery on the face side. Aside from a faint aura of conjuration magic, the cards don’t seem particularly interesting or give much hint to their power. However, when the card is used, it transforms into a magical item that may take any form; the Knight of Cups appears as a mundane grey-green stone, whereas The Sun will take on the shape of a strangely ornate rooster-themed clock. Strange appearances may belie wild hidden powers.
The Tarot of Transcendent Treasures features 78 new magic items including 22 world-changing artifacts. Additionally, Tarot of Transcendent Treasures includes plot seeds for weaving these items into your world, and giving your players reason to seek them out, either to collect them, guard them, or attempt to destroy them.
