Unfamiliar Heroes 20 – Janus’ First Tarot Reading

Writing Alchemy Unfamiliar Heroes 20 Summary

This is a special scripted crossover episode between Writing Alchemy and Kalila Stormfire’s Economical Magick Services where we return to Sylvan Community College as Kalilia gives Janus her first tarot reading, foreshadowing the events which will take place in the next Unfamiliar Heroes game.

Janus: Tobi Hill-Meyer

Kalila: Lisette Alvarez

Audio Editing and Sound Design: Fay Onyx

Script: Lisette Alvarez with collaboration and input from Fay Onyx and Tobi Hill-Meyer

This illustration depicts three characters, each from a different genre of story, and each with a disability. On the left is a black gnome archer riding in a chariot pulled by a large brown dog. The chariot has a chair in it so that they can sit instead of stand. In the middle is a Latina woman manipulating a tech device on her wrist as she begins to go invisible. She is wearing an air filtering mask of the type that people with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity sometimes wear. On the right is a white muscular superhero wearing a very gay, blue superhero outfit. He has lightning crackling between his two hands, which are shaped atypically. This beautiful work of art was created the amazing Rose Adare!
