    I have a couple of questions:

    1. if you play the game with the cambion, it seems that you get lousy cards--I mean, I always drew strife, the plague, robber? (a bunch of assasins showed up), or one or two others--NONE of which are mentioned on any websights re: this deck

    so, is the cambion cheating? He seems to draw lousy cards also (except the third draw).. but you never get good cards---I tried about 10 or more times.. multiple draws.. multiple betting combinations

    if you kill the cambion (like I finally did---after we drew once---I sort of .. err.. decieved him and attacked his gang when they were killing some fighters that showed up.. ok .. I am a loser)... back to the subect:

    if you kill him, you still get three draws BUT the draws come from the types I have seen described--- donjon, skull, moon, gem, etc.)

    so IS he CHEATING? and am I a scum to just kill him (neutral good character)?

    2. is it true that you only get bad results after you draw a bad result? and how do I draw the throne card? pure luck? and what is the magic item you get with Key?


    ahh. so long winded--but this is a magic item I have been fascinated with for 20 years-- since the 1st ed DM guides.. (that and the hand/eye of vecna)
