The Omen Draw

what this is

A prophecy drawn before the session begins โ€” it must come true by night's end. The players hear only the omen. The dungeon master alone may read the whisper, which tells what it truly means.

  1. Choose โ€” an omen for the table, or a party omen that binds the whole group.
  2. Draw โ€” read the prophecy aloud. Let it hang in the air.
  3. Whisper โ€” the DM peeks at the hidden meaning (no players looking!).
  4. Fulfill โ€” by session's end, the omen comes true. How it happens is up to the table.
