Drama Cards - Generic Version

Hey folks - I'm in the process of gathering up my old Drama Card project; I just wanted to see if anyone would be interested in making use of them. I created a systemless version of them, so you can take them and throw them into any game. They were originally designed to work for 4E, but, I'm finding the "generic" version actually gives the GM a great deal more flexibility in regards to what kind of benefits the cards give. I originally posted a little bit about them in my S.P.I.R.E. campaign (actually, technically, they go much further back, but...) - take a look if ya like.

    These worked very well in my 4e game. As a point of usage, I found they worked best as a use 'em or lose 'em thing, otherwise players horde them and never use them. I handed each player 4 random cards per adventure to use or lose before the end of the adventure. Once I did that, we had a lot of fun with them. I selected specific cards for the deck to skew the cards toward out of combat and spotlight control.

    Link that works for the "pdf":http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DSVRYG1I files.

    This was available from the links provided on the 1d4chan site. (edit: this link is for the 4e version and not the generic version. Sorry, I missed the difference earlier.)

    Used them for the first time last night and they definitely added a lot of fun to the game. At one point "Willup" used one to pull a random encounter of 4 goblins, then "Lindi" made two of them turn on each other. She had three of them taken out before they cleared up the miscommunication betwixt them. So thanks again for these awesome game adds.
