Tarokka Reading

As the party first entered the lands of Barovia they met with Madam Eva as she offered to do a Tarokka reading of them. She mentioned the following:

Shepherd

Those who protect others; one who bears a burden far too great to be shouldered alone.
''Find the mother - she who gave birth to the devil.''

Traitor

Betrayal by someone close and trusted; a weakening or loss of faith.
''Look for a wealthy woman. A staunch ally of the devil, she keeps the treasure under lock and key, with the bones of an ancient enemy.''

Soldier

War and sacrifice; the stamina to endure great hardship.
''Look for a den of wolves in the hills overlooking a mountain lake. The treasure belongs to Mother Night.''

Joker

A rare commodity or business opportunity; deceitful or dangerous business transactions.
''Look for an entertaining man with a monkey. This man is more than he seems.''

Executioner

The imminent death of one rightly or wrongly convicted of a crime; false accusations and unjust prosecution.
''I see a dark figure on a balcony, looking down upon his tortured land with a twisted smile.''
