Jump to navigation Jump to search

Wondrous item, Rare (Does not require attunement)

A traveling merchant peddles these cards for a trade of an expensive item, perhaps for a good potion or a horse, even though he's got about a hundred identical decks stacked up in his wagon. In order to draw a card, a d100 must be rolled for the effect drawn, and a card can be drawn once after finding the deck and once after a short or long rest is completed.

Note: If a card has no effect on the user, they lose 1d20 gp.
