- ANALYZE:
You turn your deck about, carefully evaluating the craftsmanship.
The brushwork is bold and clear.
The cards have minor scratches.
The lines forming the images are somewhat animated.
The edges of the cards are straight.
The deck is brand new.
It appears to have never seen use.
The overall craftsmanship is spectacular and the deck should prove extremely resistant to damage.
- STUDY:
You study the deck and determine that:
You could invoke the deck to form or sever a bond with it.
You could analyze the deck in order to evaluate its craftsmanship and connection to the Plane of Probability.
You could deal the deck in order to perform a prediction after properly aligning yourself.
Additionally you could arrange, babble at, break, clench, cut, deal, kiss, pat, push, raise, shake, shuffle, tap, throw, touch, turn, wave, or wink at the deck. Due to your experience as a follower of Fortune's Path, you could also wave the deck at someone, and then pull or raise the deck to reveal their card from the deck.
Skimming through the cards in the deck, you look to see if any have been added. However, none appear to be.
- BABBLE: Drawing on previous rhetoric experience, you spew out an explanation of how the Dwarf card works, but you're not really sure it made any sense.
- BREAK: Gripping your deck firmly with both hands, you pull in two different directions. The top of the deck comes right off!
- CLENCH: Cupping one hand, you place it protectively over your Tokka deck.
- CUT: You cut the deck for yourself, removing roughly half the cards and placing the remainder on top of them.
- DEAL: See USE under Divination deck
- KISS: You bring the Tokka deck to your lips and kiss the top card for luck. You hope you weren't kissing the Goshawk!
- PAT: You give your deck a fond pat.
- PUSH: Squeezing the edges of the Tokka deck between your fingers, you send a cascade of cards casually into your other hand.
- RAISE: Holding the deck before you, you use the faintest touch of telekinetic magic to gently tug on a card in the middle of the deck. It shudders briefly and then rises out of the deck, revealing the <random card> for all to see. You lower the card back into the deck.
- SHAKE: You hold the Tokka deck loosely and shake it up and down, allowing cards to drop out of deck and into your other hand.
- SHUFFLE: You cautiously spread the deck out before you, sliding the cards around and thoroughly mixing them before carefully collecting them into a pile again.
Note: Shuffling in rain causes damage!
It's kind of wet out here. That might be rough on the cards. Try again if you're sure!
- TAP: You rap the top of the Tokka deck with your knuckles, trying to maintain a mystical air.
- THROW: In a somewhat questionable move, you throw your your Tokka deck into the air! Cards fly everywhere and slowly flutter to the ground! Realizing the error of your ways, you quickly bend down to pick them all up again.
- TOUCH: You silently rest your hand on top of the Tokka deck, clearing your mind of all other thoughts.
- TURN: You flip the deck over and glance down to see the face of <random card>. The card brings a smile to your lips. You pull the card off the bottom and slip it into the middle of the deck.
- WAVE: You fan the deck open between your hands and then slide all the cards together again.
- WINK: You touch the top of your Tokka deck and wink knowingly.
