2020-06-29 14:09:23 +0000 UTCProbably not. We have a lot of characters as is. But we will use the suits association with elements.

2020-06-24 12:18:19 +0000 UTCI know we're focused on the Major Arcana, but the minor suits, particularly the Queens, might still play a role

2020-06-23 12:15:35 +0000 UTCCool ideas. I didn't even think about the lovers might be two people.

2020-06-23 12:14:42 +0000 UTCTo many tarot cross parts of what they represent but here is my list: The Magician = Elphaba (evil) The High Priestess = Joan The Empress = Hippolyta (Amazon Queen greek mythos) The Emperor = Iforita (evil fire goddess) (emperor = mars = fire) The Hierophant = Yael (The best female equivalent unless Uriel) The Lovers = Eve The Chariot = Laura (adventurer type) Strength = Diana The Hermit = Raven Wheel of Fortune = Wanda (from Female dead pool) Justice = Cassie (Diana Side kick) The Hanged (Wo)Man = Mary Death = Morticia Temperance = Harmony The Devil = Naamah (succubus?) The Tower = eva (evil like putting hero in a maze) The Star = venus The Moon = Mayar (have her glow) The Sun = Elaine or Helen (means shinning light) Judgement = Proserpina (wife of underworld god Pluto) The World = Sofia The Fool = Shana

2020-06-23 10:55:51 +0000 UTCI'm not sure which Arcana you want to focus on, but looking at the deck, I would think the female cards would make the most sense. Is the guy going to be outside of the list, or would he be the Fool, wandering through all this? You could have him eventually seeking the last of the major arcana, the World(Terra?). The Empress could be Victoria (ruled more people and territory than anyone) Diana for Moon, Hippolyta(Polly) for Strength, Esther for Star, Abby for High Priestess, Amaterasu(Amy) for Sun, Amanda(She Must be Loved in Latin) for one of the Lovers, Lorelei (Lori), one who would lure sailors to their Deaths. She could be short, making her a Little Death.

2020-06-23 02:52:30 +0000 UTCAlso think you should explore the voodoo avenue of tarot and mysticism...could be interesting new faith system to write

Sam Appleman
2020-06-23 01:11:43 +0000 UTCCorona... Probably not.
Reed James
2020-06-22 17:44:34 +0000 UTCLucy for The Devil, well you ,ight as well go all in on cheesy: High Priestess = Faith Strength = Max Hermit = Forest Magician = Morgana Tower of Babel = Burj Khalifa... No, probably just Khalifa Star = Star Moon = Luna Sun = Corona... OK, maybe not that one.
Neal Johnstone
2020-06-22 16:26:27 +0000 UTCLucy is fun for Devil.
Reed James
2020-06-22 13:56:23 +0000 UTCYeah, name for people who will represent one. It's like Persona.
Reed James
2020-06-22 13:56:09 +0000 UTCIf the devil is female it has to be Lucy or Luce rather than Lucifer
Greeps
2020-06-22 03:53:24 +0000 UTCDo you mean to name people associated with the arcana, or replacement names for the Arcana?
