Card Deck Ideas for Eathdawn
Posted: Tue Mar 27, 2012 10:41 pm
One of the things that helps me get engaged in Savage Worlds games is a card deck that is appropriately themed. That got me thinking about a card deck for Savage Earthdawn.
My original idea was to have an elemental themed deck - 1 suit Air, Earth, Fire and Water. Jokers would be Oricalchum. I could add art of commonly known people (Alachia, etc.) on the face cards. However, then I realized that Wood is also an element in ED, so I also thought of making a 5 suit, 10 card per suit deck.
So, I have a couple of questions in search of ideas.
1. Are there any symbols of the elements in the ED material? I have several first through third edition books, but can't remember seeing any.
2. Anyone have other ideas for an awesome themed ED deck?
