This draft adds in the governing effects that each Major Arcana has over a Region, defining the mechanical challenges that the party will have to face while exploring it, as well as what they'll have to do to find the heart of their Quest and complete the task they've been assigned in that Region.
The time of Threadspinner Playtest is very nearly upon us, which means we need to get the game finished up and ready to play! Let's circle back and talk some more about how "dying" works, and flesh out the mechanics for this game's version of the Phantom Clock!
