Yeah I missed it since Friday only posted the first half when I posted. I never went back and looked at his post again later. My bad.

Sorry! I posted and then went back and re-edited to make more of it....apologies...I'll be more decisive next time!

Can you explain the reading a bit for the background clueless

Will the 'lich' start to read the future from cards for the characters? Have they to do something?

The Deck of Dragons are, in a manner of speaking, this world's version of tarot cards - they are used in fortune-telling, divination etc. Each card refers to an Ascendant or God, and is aspected in some way (Life, Death, Dark, Shadow, etc). The cards change depending on who is in ascension, events across the world and so on. A reading is carried out for a number of reasons, by a number of people - those with the real talent to read the cards are few and far between, usually sorcerers or priests. A wealthy merchant might do it to see how the impending siege will affect his trade, or a traveller might want an intimation of what events he may encounter in his journey.

Does that help?

If you look here it might give you a bit of an idea.

Bear in mind, some of the ascendants in this list you either don't or shouldn't know about! But just to give you an idea of how it works...sort of...

Just wanna say guys, I'm sorry I seem to be taking ages to post - the past few weeks have been a bit manic for me but I'm doing my best to at least post something significant once a week!

Thanks for your involvement anyway!

Cheers

Friday!

I find myself eager for each post from you. Well done sir, you keep me interested. Not something easy to do.

perrinmiller · Jul 3, 2010

I am fine too. Once a week post rate is okay by me, just so long as we know the expectations.

Walking Dad · Jul 3, 2010

Everything fine! I'm a bit slow on the WE, too.

Weekends are busy for me too, only a few hours in front a computer during the evenings. But I do something find time for quick OOC posts from my mobile phone.
