The Project's FAQ Document can be found HERE.See below for only high-level project structure information:
How will the cards in this project be structured?
This deck will be structured based on the Rider-Waite tarot deck (the classic one most of you know and love!), so that you can actually read with them.
There will be a total of 78 cards, covering the Major Arcana (22 cards) and Minor Arcana (56 cards covering Pentacles, Wands, Swords, and Cups).
This project will not be following the approach where the character's in game Arcana is automatically assigned to them as their card in this deck.
Why aren't you assigning the same Arcana card to the characters that represent that Arcana in-game?
This deck may be Persona 5 themed, but the intention is for any owner of the deck to be able to read with them as they would any other tarot deck, and have the imagery/character on the card accurately represent the actual meaning the card holds.
This allows more flexibility so that every card in the deck has artwork on it, and there can be more contributors!
Please see below for an example!
How will applications work?
Applications will require artists to select characters they would be willing to draw from several categories (example categories being: antagonists/villains, main characters, NPC confidants, etc.)
Applicants will be assigned the card that we have designated for that character. The artist will be asked to draw the card with the meaning of the card in mind while representing their character.
List of cards and associated character will be coming soon!
Are there only art contributors needed for this project?
We ARE looking for writing contributors as well, but not to write fic. We will be asking writers to rewrite the meaning of the tarot cards with their own creative spin on it referencing the Persona 5 element or character associated with the meaning so that even our guidebook for the deck is P5 themed!
We will definitely need artists to draw the cards themselves. Artists will be allowed to draw up to 2 cards, but it won't be required they take on more than 1. If they take on 2 cards, they will only be granted one major character to draw to spread the love.
We will also be looking for merchandise artists to join our contributor team.
