Spacegamer.com - Barony Underworld Mission:
This uses the Tarot Card to Generate a "Underworld" Mission on the Fly as described in Designing Fantasy Missions as part of the Barony Set. (Underworld means it is focused on an Underworld.) No attempt is made here to define each of the finer points.
To begin, determine who the mission is offered to and call them the Party Leader (to accept / reject Mission).
Note: This mission is temporary. Copy it out now if you want it.

Patron:
- (Inverted) 7 Swords: Cut-Purse; a minor rogue who makes a living from theft. Patron may be attempting a Mission that does not involve criminal activities ("I'm cleaning up my act"). Inverted, Pickpocket; another criminal, but his method is more subtle. He relies on stealth and deception to gain his goals.
