    It's interesting thinking how honestly, Molly was the next most interesting person in Jesters life after she met The Traveler. So when she says stuff like he was basically a God she kind of thinks of him that way because in her mind he's just as cool just and interesting and just as wise and helpful and present as the traveler was for her growing up. Just a really interesting tribute to their friendship as characters.

    !!!!!!!!!!Spoilers for 140!!!!!!!!!!
    Episode 1 Molly pulls the 'silver dragon' to represent Jester. This has been confirmed to actually be the platinum dragon on The Judge card,,,,,the reverse of which is The Tyrant, the red and silver dragons fighting in a figure eight. Molly said she was a silver dragon with a destiny forged,,,,,then she read Lucien as the Tyrant, her opponent, and she foretold his Death.

    And then she fulfilled that prophecy herself.

      She also didn't just draw the card of Luciens death; she painted it. The Death/Dawn card was one of her additions. (I'm pretty sure Taliesin said outright at some point his moonweaver deck didn't have a death card, but it wouldn't have made sense for Jes to make a death card if there already was one.)

    3:33 "You come from being touched by some sort of primordial chaos magic" In DnD, primordials are connected to the elements. Genasi are physical manifestations of the elements. Jester's father is a genasi (hence her affinity to water rather than fire as a tiefling). just theorizing ;)

    These damn cards are just one of many ways that the story of The Mighty Nein felt actually magical; they couldn't have *written* better rolls for these cards. It really did feel sometimes like the dice wanted the story to go their way. Same with the times people got mind controlled and rolled 1s against their friends, or when people rolled nat 20s on important plot points, not to mention that damn divine intervention roll at the end! It's so exciting every time it happens, you appreciate it way more than scripted stories.

    I am assuming by "force" Tal was meaning the trick where you purposefully trick a person to pick out a specific cards.

    Literally all Laura’s tarot card readings are perfect… that’s so amazing! It seems like they cards were created by Jester and Taliesin (don’t quote me on that) and I guess they assigned a D20 number system to the cards and then a further D6 number system to interpretation or maybe sides? Anyways it’s so amazing, truly, how it all fits and how Laura is an amazing story teller through it. I’m so impressed

    I would've been cool if when they rolled for which cards they got, they were actually ability checks, so their modifiers/bonuses were added, affecting which cards are drawn. Like the past card is a history check, the present card is a perception check, and the future card is an insight check.
    As a metaphor for how one ultimately has (at least some) control over their own fate throughout their life.

    Right from the start I waited for the end
    I did'nt remember every single bit of the cards, but it was so nice seeing how we've got to the end and how Jester's way of looking and understanding them changed
    To see the final prediction when you know the end really makes me feel that the dies are also a part of the story and their weight is importent
    I created a character 2 days ago and I had vaguely her background story but I wanted the flash it out and I rolled about her familly and the story just... changed, and become better.
    The dies are really important sometimes, and we need to listen to them more

    Anyone think the red dragon on the Tyrant card could be Thordak? I know red dragons in general are often tyrannical so it may be a reach, especially since Wildemount generally wasn't very involved with most of the Chroma Conclave stuff and Molly was only conscious well after that, but could be a fun nod towards campaign one. May even have been one of the first cards Taliesin planned when Molly was originally his backup if Percy died, in which case Thordak would be more relevant.
    Doesn't change much as far as the stuff with Lucien goes, but it's a fun thought.

      It was probably intended for that, as it is the first in the list he made, most likely to tie his character into the group.
