It would include 22 cards.The Fool is the main character of the Major Arcana. The Fool makes a journey through each of the cards, meeting new people and learning new life lessons along the way, and eventually reaching the end of the journey.

Application Guidelines
THERE WILL BE TWO THEMES YOU HAVE THE OPTION OF CONTRIBUTING TO. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ CAREFULLYFOUND FAMILY/BOND THEMEYou will be tasked to draw/write for a minimum of 2-3 characters in your piece. The piece created will have to focus on the bond between these characters. You will only be creating one piece in this theme. In addition, if you are assigned a single character, they must be the main focus. ✦(eg: You are assigned Eda and decide to use Lilith and Raine, Eda must remain as the focus of your piece).If you are assigned a pair or group, you do not need to add more characters.
✦(eg : You are assigned Luz and Willow, you chose to draw them having a sleepover as they laugh and have fun)CHARACTER GROWTH/JOURNEY THEMEYou will be tasked to draw or write for one character or one pair (non-romantic).
