"A deeply unwise decision," says Librosteus. He flips over one of the black cards, but it actually has a suit now. You recognize your own face, mirrored in two corners. The Fool.

Librosteus raises a bony talon, and you are yanked violently from your flesh. Your emptied corpse falls limply to the floor behind you, and Librosteus opens his cloak. You spiral into the yawning darkness, spinning, falling...

so this is the only screen i could find from the card game against librosteus. and it doesn't tell you anything much about the game itself. but it sure does get the stakes across

librosteus is a fun deity

@SunSaint great im infinitely old and read current events

@mavica @devurandom@cybre.space sorry! i meant in the sense of "corporations abusing power" things. i shouldn't have worded it like that

@Nentuaby @monorail @Kat@snouts.online yeah and cheeses are Incredibly Entertaining but also. highly situational

@devurandom@cybre.space uh....i wouldn't know, for that. the circles i'm aware in tend to be suspicious of robots replacing humans. for uh, obvious reasons, but still

@BestGirlGrace @irisjaycomics @hierarchon okay but that's just the card game you play against librosteus for your soul i've already Done that one

@devurandom@cybre.space yes, actually. that's basically the core premise of all the ones that are like "this is a sport where you can bring actual weapons" or what have you

@BestGirlGrace consider: capitalise my pronouns, not my name

@Kat@snouts.online @monorail you could try

@monorail @Kat@snouts.online well, speaking as a fae,

@Kat@snouts.online @monorail and how does that really stack up against reality-warping artifacts that can grant your deepest desires

@BestGirlGrace this happens all the time tbh

@Kat@snouts.online @monorail most jobs are safer. but i'd hesitate to call it more lucrative given the kinds of things you can get from adventuring

@monorail @Kat@snouts.online ok You Know What that's a reasonable explanation but also can you imagine. an adventuring party. that spends their days turning ladders into poles instead of adventuring

@monorail @Kat@snouts.online my point is that with the arbitrarily large amount of funds to hire all the peasants the price difference should be negligible

@Kat@snouts.online the only flaw in this is that they were willing to actually hire a couple thousand peasants but they couldn't bother to just. buy a ten-foot pole. which is a staple d&d item
