Spacegamer.com - Crimson Cutlass Mission:
This uses the Tarot Card to Generate a Mission on the Fly as described in Crimson Cutlass Book 2 -- Generating Missions. (For even more value, use Book 3 to generate Encounters on the way!!!!)
To begin, determine who the mission is offered to and call them the Party Leader (to accept / reject Mission).
Note: This mission is temporary. Copy it out now if you want it. (It pastes nicely into Word.)
Mission Title:
Party Leader:
Patron:
- Seven of Rods (Inverted): A Wrong Woman
Mission:
- Three of Coins (Inverted): Burglarize a place (garrison's barracks or armory of arms and munitions).
- The Sun: Mission should be simple or direct, take place in the immediate area - do not use the encounters, go straight to the climax (see encounters).
Patron Finances:
- Five of Swords (Inverted): Working under set funds that will not be exceeded (doesn't want it all spent either).
Patrons Reasons / Motivations:
- Knave of Rods (Inverted): Fears something and wants another to perform task (all in his mind, but players also sense fear).
- The Magician: Patron sees opportunity now, because on overshadowing important event has brought a chance of success.
- High Priestess (Inverted): Patron is a fanatic-zealot to his cause.
- The Lovers (Inverted): Although Patron supports another, he has this own motives (pick a second card to represent this own motives) .
- The Empress (Inverted): Patron's motive is so distasteful, that player (or another player) will feel drawn to support oppositions by scenario's end.
Opposition:
- Knight of Cups (Inverted): Treachery in the group will lead to false accusations and threats among the players (patron will become suspect during scenario).
- Justice (Inverted): All court cases during the mission will end disfavorably (Referee decides how disfavorably), except verdicts determined by "make-roll".
- The Tower (Inverted): In addition to other obstacles, a fortress must be penetrated and breached by sapping or bombardment during the climax.

Rival:
- Eight of Rods (Inverted): Speculator / Surveyor / Prospector

Climax Flow:
Referee creates the flow of the climax OR refer to Climax Encounters in Crimson Cutlass!!!
Come on Back and maybe we'll have a generator in for you. Otherwise, use the Temple and Castles from our Legacy tools. (Hey, or buy the books!!!!!)
