TarotWeaver, a Tarot TTRPG
A downloadable roleplaying game
TarotWeaver is a whimsical tabletop roleplaying game inspired by the enchanting vibes of Over the Garden Wall and Adventure Time. TarotWeaver encourages storytelling above all, allowing for a lightweight, narrative-focused experience where players weave magical and heartfelt tales in a world filled with wonder. With simple mechanics and an emphasis on creativity, TarotWeaver invites players of all backgrounds to step into a world where imagination takes center stage, and every new card flip could lead to a new adventure.
TarotWeaver is a classless game, allowing players the freedom to create and envision the characters they want to play. TarotWeaver's game system features a comprehensive background generator, a flexible spell system that allows for hundreds of possible spell combinations, 56 traits, and the power to generate entire adventures using the Major Arcana. TarotWeaver allows a quick and intuitive way to start roleplaying.
Taking inspiration from games like Whitehack, His Majesty the Worm, Cairn, Into the Odd, and Dungeon World, TarotWeaver uses a simple “draw under” system that allows for diverse outcomes and engaging gameplay.
In TarotWeaver, as Weavers move through the world they will be asked to make checks by the Oracle. To succeed in a check the Weaver must draw a card from the Fate Deck (the Minor Arcana + The Fool), trying to draw equal to or under their Aspect score (Swords, Wands, Cups, Pentacles). If the card draw is under and matches the Aspects suit, it's a success. If the card drawn is under but a different suit, the result is a complicated success. Training in skills allows players to leverage their hands instead of drawing directly from the Fate Deck, giving them some control over the outcomes.
We plan to launch a printed version of the game complete with a 78 card tarot deck on Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/themimicsvault/tarotweaver-a-tarot-based-ro...
