 == Overview ==
-Decks are magical devices granted by [[Nemelex Xobeh]] which are used by e'''V'''oking them, similar to [[wand]]s. This draws a random [[Cards|card]] from the deck to produce a certain effect.  Each deck comes with 4-13 cards. Their power is governed by [[invocations]] skill and piety, not [[evocations]].
