The Emerald Setlist

I haven't finished the writeup of the Emerald Set yet; I only have about half of the cards named at all, never mind designed. With that said, I'm posting what is done here as a backup, and to remind myself that this is a work in progress.

In total, the Emerald Set will have 55 cards, because that's how many the Levantine Set has and I'm too damn lazy to consider rewriting a Random Card Generation table myself.

The Emerald Set

The Emerald Set is inspired by Fax Celestis and his generally-inspiring Cartomancer class.

I liked the idea. I liked the mechanics. But I had my own ideas of what exactly a D&D-style Tarot deck would look like, and they didn't correspond very well with the Levantine Set, so I'm posting them here instead.

Sooner or later I'll find hosting for it, but until then this will have to work.

A closing and an opening

Sister Scorpion has locked her blog.

And so I grieve, for I have no way to express that I loved her blog passionately and deeply. When I get the band together, we're going to have to do a show in Oklahoma as a pretext for me stalking her down and introducing myself.

On that note, I suppose this would be a decent time to introduce another blog I'm starting to record the life and times of my alter ego, Kredge Karlish. Insofar as my current D&D campaign meets every Monday, and I have an ulterior motive for writing it (keeping records translates to bonus XP), you can safely rest assured that it will be updated with much more regularity than this one.

When the silence becomes deafening

With Sister Scorpion having declared a blog fast - and one of my multiple-visits-a-day blogs thus on standby - it occurs to me that I should probably start posting here; but I don't have terribly much to say.

Fox enlisted me for some creative work after class today; it was grueling, but I managed to hash out something that I think will work for her purposes. (Much staring at the screen in frustration was involved.) Getting that completed has been the best thing to happen to me in recent days.

Probably up there with Fox telling me that what I'd look for in a hypothetical wife (the ability to beat me in single unarmed combat three times out of five, given some hypothetical martial arts training on my part; the ability to kick my ass being, in my eyes, a healthy basis for a long-term relationship) really wasn't healthy.

And so it goes.

It's been more than a year since last I posted at my previous blog, and in that time enough things have changed that I feel that a change of blog is in order.

So here we go again.
