There are many ways for an author to explore an invented world. Worldbuilding generally includes making maps, dreaming up new cultures, and deciding what sort of magic and technology the world has. For me, all of these methods helped me to create the setting for Children of Rhatlan, Tamshi's Imp, and many of the stories in Seeds of Vision.

I also found that creating this Tarot deck, based on Taibril and my stories that have taken place there, helped me to more deeply explore this rich world. Here, for your perusal, are thumbnail images of the entire deck. I hope you enjoy this glimpse of Taibril, and that you will continue your journey by reading my books.

If you have a registered copy of Orphalese Tarot, you can go to the Deck Exchange in the Tarot Zone and download this deck for your own divinitory use or Tarot study. Orphalese Tarot is shareware, and the best computer Tarot program I've ever used.

In Tarot tradition, some of these images do contain artistic nudity. If that bothers you, just click back to the main page.
