Today Team S3 Studies how good The Thorn of Camorr's card skills really are...
Based on a small scene in Locke Lamora Book 2: Red Seas Under Red Skies where Locke shows the head of the wealthiest gambling house how capable he is at cheating the system even after being searched and his right hand restrained.

It is a fantasy world, a standard deck of cards could be anything. Could just add an extra card to all suits, and we're good, they don't have the historical attachment to four suits of 13 cards as we do. Hell, in universe a suit of 13 would probably be seen as slightly heretical XD
That's some skill right there

"Some day you are going to fuck up so magnificently, so ambitiously, so overwhelmingly, that the sky will light up and moons will spin and the gods themselves will shit comets with glee."
I need to read the other books, but with some of these series I'm nervous stepping into them without the promise they'll be continuing.
For instance, I kinda feel I made the right call not jumping into "The Wise Man's Fear" yet, since Day Three/Book Three of that series hasn't come out. XD
The first book is EXCELLENT, though.
("What made you think my first name was-")

Okay, love the idea. XD Like he's just so crazy good at card tricks, he's got his own pocket dimension where he keeps a small kitten. It's well-cared for and doesn't suffer, yet he can pull it out at will despite not being any sort of mage.
I may have to play a character like this in an RPG sometime. XD
