More than a game, Tarot uPick is an exploration of self, circle and world.
Tarot uPick 2 will delve into the entanglement of free will and destiny from the very moment you choose your cards.


uPick infoThis game will use the Steampunk Tarot Deck. The game will feature some unique tarot-inspired mechanics.

You will choose three cards and I will design your role based upon your choices. Submit the choices in your order of preference.


The Steampunk Tarot deck by Barbara Moore and Aly Fell is based on the Ryder Waite deck, so you can use R-W meanings to select your card picks. If you have any questions (or if I know your card has unique or idiosyncratic meanings or symbolism in the Steampunk deck), we can discuss when you're ready to make your card picks.

Links to R-W meanings for

Major Arcana: http://www.tarot-card.net/majorarcana.htm
Court Cards: http://www.tarot-card.net/courtcards.htm
Minor Arcana: http://www.tarot-card.net/minorarcana.htm


Player Requirements- Two non-newbie on-site games. If you have comparable offsite experience, PM me to discuss waiving this requirement.

I took some quick phonecam photos of all the Steampunk Tarot cards and added them in spoilers to the OP.

Role PMs will have higher definition photos of your chosen cards.

How many people long for that "past, simpler, and better world," I wonder,
without ever recognizing the truth that perhaps it was they who were simpler and better,
and not the world about them?

I mean... You're all kinda ghosts of my past, you know?

Good lord, I was reading the posts to figure out who you are exactly (you changed profile pictures at some point). It's kinda nostalgic to see you all.

The Judgement card shows a number of naked men, women and children rising up from their graves, arms outspread and responding to the trumpet call of the archangel, Gabriel, who hovers high above them. The people are appealing to the angel, ready to be judged by the power of the Universe. In the background, there are huge mountains, or even tidal waves, which signify insurmountable obstacles and the impossibility of avoiding judgment. The ocean represents the end of the river that flows through the Major Arcana, starting with the Empress. Gabriel’s banner is red on white, the same as the Magician’s clothing. As with everything in life, the beginning is woven irrevocably into the end and the end eventually leads to a new beginning. The planetary ruler of this card is Pluto, the ruler of the underworld.
