Anonymous Coward asked: Who was your favorite NPC in Deadlaws?
I'm biased towards Wolfram because I ended up taking over a lot of his story, but Kitt's dynamic of "I learned to read from crossword puzzles and I'm like the second smartest guy in this whole town" is amazing. Also, within minutes of meeting Greeble I was typing "someone needs to get the animal companion perk and keep this guy around." It made no sense for Argo but it needed to be done.

Gnollplaying Tarot
Based on Episode 6 of Deadlaws I decided to build a tarot for the Gnollplaying Games characters. It felt on brand for the witch Madoska to include characters from the future in addition to the people actually looking at them. She's a chaos gremlin like that.
Included flower symbolism in this.
The Fool: Meaning a new journey, new adventure, innocence, naivety. Dandelions; lion's tooth, meaning hope, a wish for the future, and endurance.
Character is Flynn Gorman, who briefly appears in the Deadlaws Epilogue and belongs to Toaster. (Also including Erebus as a leviathan in the sea felt appropriate.
The Magician: Meaning innovation, creativity, willpower, and resourcefulness. Poppies meaning dream, sleep, and a gift from the living to the dead.
