List of Yuriban Tarot Effects
Note: this article is written OOC as a primer on a game mechanic.
The effects of specific Yuriban Tarot cards are undocumented. This is to encourage players to use the cards they find and discover the effects on their own. You can get hints on the effects by asking other players, being familiar with the lore relating to tarot cards, and looking at the card to see if the description has any implications to what it might do. The majority of cards do something even if the effect isn't overt. Cards can be used by typing use [name of the card you'd like to use]. If you have duplicates, you can type use 1st [name of the card you'd like to use]. (This 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc convention applies for interacting with all items sharing a name.)
Most cards are neutral or beneficial to use. Major arcana tend to have more potent effects than the minor arcana. A fraction could be considered ill-advised to use. It's recommended to read the card description or investigate which tarot cards are considered to be bad omens before using them. Cards have the ability to change the weather, generate special items or lilies, teleport you to fun locations, and even grant your character powers. These powers allow you to access secret areas on the grid and players can choose to treat them as IC, or an OOC convenience. For example if you gain the ability to fly, you can RP your character now has that power, or just keep it OOC. Whichever you'd prefer! Some are temporary, some are permanent. One card even generates a storage deck you can use to contain your collection! Happy hunting, and may the heart of the cards be on your side should you choose to experiment with the Yuriban Tarot.
If you feel that your lack or patience simply isn`t up for the task, here is the listing of effects. Try and avoid spoiling yourself if at all possible, though.
