Deck and Gambit

As explained in the How to Play section, Eternal Odyssey uses a special deck of cards, individual to each player, to resolve effects and run combat. All character start the adventure with the same standard Deck, comprised of 30 cards, whose composition can be seen below:
Card Value	Symbols 	Quantity in the deck
1 	1x Might	1
1 	1x Numen	1
1 	1x Fate 	1
2 	 	3
3 	 	3
4 	 	3
5 	 	3
6 	 	3
7 	 	3
8 	 	3
9 	 	3
10 	1x Might	1
10 	1x Numen	1
10 	1x Fate 	1
However, Eternal Odyssey possess two more card zones, the Exhaust Pile and the Gambit. Once a card is drawn from the deck, the card is sent to the Exhaust Pile, unable to be used or drawn again, until the game’s rules compel the Player to shuffle all cards in their Exhaust Pile, back into their Deck.
However, if the card bears one or more of the three symbols (Might, Numen and Fate), and the draw was not done as part of an Ability Check, the card is sent to your Gambit instead. While in your Gambit, the symbols on the cards can be expended to pay as cost for using abilities, casting spells, and various other mechanics. Whenever one or more cards are expended in this way, you must reshuffle your deck, shuffling the expended cards in your Gambit and all cards in your Exhaust Pile, back into your deck.
Your Deck will remain mostly the same throughout your adventure. However, by obtaining features and attainments in Ways of Magic or Ability Trees, special cards may be directly added to your Gambit at the start of every day, instead of being added once drawn, granting you resources that can be spent on casting spells and using abilities. Once these added cards are used, they are shuffled back into your deck, and can be drawn and used once again like any other card in your deck or Gambit.
Whenever you do a Long Rest, remove all added special cards from your deck and return them to your Gambit, replenishing your resources for the day, and returning your deck to the standard 30 card character deck.
These special cards added to your Gambit are divided between the four Stratums, increasing in power with higher stratums. When you add a card to your Gambit, note down which card you added on your character sheet, under the “Gambit” section. You can only have one copy of each card added to your Gambit, and the list of possible cards added to your Gambit can be seen below:
If taking a feature or attainment makes you add a card bearing a certain type of symbol (such as Might, Numen or Fate) from a particular Stratum, and there are no available cards with that symbol in that Stratum, select a card bearing that symbol in a lower Stratum instead. If that is also impossible, simply select another card in that Stratum, or below.
