I like the principle of this deck, as it tries to incorporate very niche characters into Tarot. However, I feel that it will only really hit a small subset of people who already have this as part of their culture. Which I'm sure is *great* for them
, but from what I was reading on the kickstarter page, the creator also wanted this to be accessible as a working Tarot for those not already intimately familiar with this mythos.
I find that as one who doesn't know the personality behind each character, looking at the deck most of the cards seem very much the same to me - a person standing there. There are a few cards with more than one person or something else that can possibly be interpreted to draw more specific meaning, but overall I don't feel that this is a deck that I could read with without spending a lot of time studying/learning about each character first.
I enjoy decks that touch on other cultures, but most of those I do have include scenes or other background imagery to allow for card interpretation without knowing the particulars of the culture-specific person or place depicted. Again, while I think this deck is a wonderful concept and will be much-loved by those who are a part of this culture, I just wanted to give a little feedback that might be helpful to the creator that, at least to me, the images seem too distant to warrant purchase.
