... I've used actual runestones in Everway. The heroes were in a nordic- myth inspired sphere. I used the runes for action resolution and for in-game. I was...
I think I am going to try make my own representation of the symbols. They mostly all have zodiac ties, but if I use the first letter or a simple "cave"style of...
I've always liked the feeling runes invoke. Were I the artistic sort (I can't even make a decent stick figure), I'd use each rune in a piece of art. Come to...
But alas in the Elder Futhark there are only 24 symbols, where as in the fortune deck we have 36. I will be doodling some of these later today and get back...
Bah. 64 trigrams in the I Ching. Plus all the fun of changing lines and reverse trigrams. Who says you've gotta be exact? Although 24 is a bit few. LT ... ...
Then you have to work new reversed meanings, since each of the 36 cards has a reversed meaning. You could always (if you don't mind the added complexity) draw...
The problem is that in many systems for reading the runes, about three quarters of the runes have reversed meanings. A few don't. (Wackiness ensues.) Edmund...
Put that with LT's second rune idea: One of the runes opens up a whole new meaning for every other rune in the deck. Including reversed readings, this gives 92...
Actually, unless I miss my guess (someone check my math!)... If you draw two stones, and consider the second stone as modifying the first (which means you have...

I got these cards in the mail on Monday. I've looked at them a few times, so I think I can talk about them. Beverly - my 14-year-old daughter - looked over...
Thanks LT and Beverly/Stitch42. I do have a question - at least one of the sets referred to a sort of "frame card" that would encapsulate the card in an "idea...
I didn't get the "Oh! Cards." Those were the ones I felt were too "namby pamby, woo woo, new agey spacey." The blurb for them talks about "getting in touch...

... Here's my take: You understand it just fine. Now, I don't know you, so how can I make such a bold statement? The Fortune Cards have meanings printed on...
Thanks for that John, I suppose I dont doubt that I can do alright and make the cards work. I have dont that and it is fine. Part of my feeling that has led my...
Thinking more about a Fairy-Tale Everway, I am pondering whether the Once-Upon-A-Time cards would work. The difficulty I see is that the images are much more...
... I suggest you continue to use the fortune decks. Apply your good/bad etc. criteria if you need to, but using the regular deck will expose people to the...
