What is this?

ask is a CERAMIC-Strict oracle. It was designed for solo and GMless play without dice or any random element.

Card Text

The possible oracle answers are:

1. yes 2. yes, and 3. yes, but 4. no 5. no, and 6. no, but.

Whenever you have a question, you may use any of the answers on the reverse of this card. Each answer can be used only three times during the session.

Fill an answer's circle with a pencil to keep track of the answers you have used.

The oracle resets when all of the circles have been filled, or a new session begins.

Do you have any advice on converting random tables to something similar?

One effective approach is to create a dynamic checklist by removing options from the table once they have been chosen. This means that all options are available at the beginning, but as players make their selections, the chosen options are eliminated. Over time, players are left with fewer choices, and they may have to choose from less desirable options. This technique encourages players to think strategically and prioritize their choices.

A great example of this method in action can be seen in my tool Forecast which applies this approach to generate weather conditions. You should be able to find it on my creator page.

Thank You!

Hello! I just played a solo session with your oracle and a deck of tarot cards. After reading a lot of FKR blogs and games recently , it was a super cool way to get into the play style and mind set. Thank you for your work ! 

Thank you very much! I’m glad it helped you :)

This is neat!! I love this concept!

Thank you, Cassi!

As simple as it is intuitive, this improv-inspired "oracle" would be a great addition to pretty much any game. Clean, smart, evocative.

Thank you :) I’m glad you’ll find this useful

Simple .. beautiful .. and very clever !

Thank you, Matthieu_be.
