Tarot

Tarot is the occult skill of inscribing magickal cards with various inks in order to create a powerful image. Each of the major arcaana of the Tarot deck is represented here. To use the skill, you must first find some blank tarot cards. Then, you may INSCRIBE <#> BLANK WITH <image>. You must have the ability in order to use it. Inscribing takes intense concentration, so you must cease most activities while doing this.

Once you have a card, you must CHARGE <card type>. Once it is charged, you FLING <card type> at <target>/ground. Some cards require you to fling the card at a target, some at the ground.

Tarot cards are usually stored in decks. Each deck can store up to 6 different kinds of card. You can use IND/OUTD <card> to put cards in and take cards out of your deck(s). For example: OUTD MAGICIAN will find a deck with that type and take one out (if you have one). Also, to see a listing of all the cards in all your decks, you may use DECKLIST (or DL for short).
