> The Emporer - Orlanth Rex(Renamed The King) or Yelm
Shouldn't the emperor be Yelm? (card be named the emperor, and showing the sun, or just the evil emperor....)
> Justice - Orlanth Adventurous, or Humakt? (this one is hard).
Justice would classically be Dayzatar... This all depends whether this is a culturally bound pack... one would think a Tarot deck would be a Godlearner originated semi mystical deck of cards... used by some for divining, by some for just playing. All of this during Godlearner times, of course.

The idea is nice.... I may just include it in my vision of Glorantha. I wouldn't try using existing Tarot decks tough... Just keep the central idea of a divining/game deck with symbology for all the major occult forces known.... Nice thinking.
