afflictions from them. After a period of time, the Wheel will bestow misfortune upon them, and the three afflictions originally chosen will be placed upon the victim. As an additional cost, one affliction will be cured randomly from the target as a tribute when the card is flung. This affliction must be curable through normal means and will be chosen from all possible afflictions on the opponent. You will only be informed which affliction this is if they have the justice affliction. |

locations nearby, to a place of your choosing. This will last for a set time and affects everyone. You can choose from the following landscapes:
nightmares. They will draw their target into sleep and then attack them from their dreams.
living. They will chill the flesh of those they target.
attack and harm those that stand within.
will instill the mind with madness, causing either hallucinations or berserking. To end the sorcery early, anyone may attack the Creator tarot within the central room of the landscape. Once it has been struck three times, the card will shatter, destroying the newborn reality. Cooldown: 3 minutes |

Justice | Bring justice to the unjust | |
Syntax: | FLING JUSTICE AT <player> | |

Works against: | Players only | |
Details: | The Star tarot will bring down a flaming meteor upon your unlucky foe's head. Your foe
may be anywhere within the area but both you and he must be outdoors. Should the opponent be protected by a magical shield when the meteor hits, then it will be shattered. The Star tarot can be dodged by those who are focused on ranged attacks. |
Temperance | Temper and dull the mind of a bleeding foe | |
Syntax: | FLING TEMPERANCE AT <target> | |
Details: | The Temperance tarot will temper the wounds of your opponent, forcing them clot away all
that they are bleeding for at the rate of 4 mana for every 1 point of bleeding. |
Aeon | Curse your foe with the flux of time | |
Syntax: | FLING AEON AT <target> | |
Works against: | Players only | |
Details: | The Aeon tarot will give the curse of time to a target, slowing his passage through time
and freezing any active cooldowns they might have. |
Eclipse | Cast a shadow over your Sun and Moon | |
Syntax: | FLING ECLIPSE AT ME FLING ECLIPSE AT GROUND | |
Details: | When used on yourself, the Eclipse tarot grants the Eclipse defence, which masks every
third Sun or Moon tarot affliction. When thrown at the ground, a darkness will overcome the room, tripping all enemies after a delay. |
Lust | Cause an opponent to hopelessly lust after you | |
Syntax: | FLING LUST AT <target> REJECT <luster> LUSTED | |
Works against: | Players only | |
Details: | With the Lust tarot, you can create such a burning desire within your target that the
Empress tarot will now summon them regardless of their consideration of you. In order to remove this desire, you must reject the person who holds sway over you. Those who have flung the Lust tarot at you will appear in your ALLIES, although they are not technically a real ally by any means. |
Universe | Transport yourself around the land | |
Syntax: | FLING UNIVERSE AT GROUND TOUCH MAP <location> CLOSE MAP | |
Details: | The Universe tarot will allow you access to the world of Aetolia, giving instant
transport to a number of locations. Anyone may close an open map before them. You can currently use the following locations: - Bloodloch - NStrand - Mhojave - NIthmia - Pash - Savannah - Spinesreach - WIthmia - Vashnar - Scidve - Tundra - Farsai |
Devil | Call a Devil to serve you, though no more than once | |
Syntax: | FLING DEVIL AT GROUND | |
Details: | When you fling the Devil tarot at the ground, a devil will be summoned. The devil will
serve you in exchange for limited control over your body. This devil will speed up your tarot flings when they are flung at a target by 1 second. However, for each affliction the opponent has, the speed increase will be reduced by 0.2 seconds. Should no bonus speed be applied due to the number of afflictions, the devil will inflict your current target with misery and then depart. The devil will eventually fade on its own regardless if its used or not. This will not increase the speed of your doppleganger's ability to fling cards. |
Moon | Bestow the maladies of the moon upon your enemy | |
Syntax: | FLING MOON [affliction] AT <player> | |
Works against: | Players only | |
Details: | The Moon tarot will give your enemy one affliction associated with the mind. You may
choose the affliction it gives, if you so wish, otherwise a random affliction will be selected. You can deliver one of the following afflictions with the Moon: Stupidity, confusion, recklessness, impatience, epilepsy, berserking, weariness, and anorexia. The Moon tarot can be dodged by those who are focused on melee attacks. |
Death | Call down Death itself to claim the soul of your enemy | |
Syntax: | RUB DEATH ON <player> FLING DEATH AT <player> SNIFF DEATH | |
Works against: | Players only | |
Details: | The Death tarot is not a card to be trifled with, bringing about a swift end to anyone
who tries to oppose it once flung. There is nought that can stop the figure of Death once summoned, although some claim the dreamworld has some effect. In order to fling Death at your opponent, you must first attune the Death card to their body and soul. This is achieved by rubbing it upon your enemy five times. Once it is fully attuned, simply fling it at your opponent and wait for his arrival. You may not perform any actions during this process and will be unable to dodge or divert any attacks aimed at you. In order to see how many rubs you have accumulated, you can sniff a card of Death to see. Rubs will last for multiple weeks at a time, and aren't attached to any one card. Do note however, a combat arena will have a adverse effect on the Death card, and any rubs gained will not transfer between it and Sapience. Neither will they last as long. |
Imprint | Instantly charge and inscribe your tarot cards | |
Syntax: | OUTC BLANK AS <type> OUTD BLANK AS <type> | |
Details: | So powerful is your skill in Tarot, you are able to pull your cards from your cache or
deck, instantly charged and imprinted them with the style of your choice. Be warned, when the charge fades, so will the imprint. |
