I'm running through Burnt Offerings, and one of the PCs has a connection to Madame Mvashti. So, of course, he wants her to look into the future for him. The player doesn't like the idea of Harrow cards, says he finds them too similar to Tarot for his tastes. Instead I've come up with this:
Prediction:
Beware, there's peril yet to come
Bound to a master thought undone
By runes of greed, with power arcane
An ancient one shall claim again
Beware, there's peril yet to come
Bound to a master thought undone
By runes of greed, with power arcane
An ancient one shall claim again
I'd like to hear some opinions from the great hivemind on this - too obscure? Too spoilery? Too cliche?
I think I'd like to tweak the first two lines in particular, but I'm not quite sure how.
If relevant, for context, the characters have more or less cleared the first level of Thistletop and I have the original version of RotRL, not the anniversary one.
