Semiotician's Gambit
You are a semiotician, a student of pattern magic at the New Archives in the north of Hieron, and you want something more than you have ever wanted anything before. The World may not end if you do not get it, but you feel as if yours might. So you turn to the Pattern, and you ask it what it requires, and you make your play… Semiotician's Gambit is a single-player Friends at the Table fan RPG about grand intentions, desperate measures, and the whims of fortune. You will draw Tarot cards to create a conflicted magician, seek components, and overcome obstacles to cast a daring spell that could change everything.
