Create a 'Fortune Card' deck where players can draw a fortune instead of taking a normal action. The fortune becomes a special game event!

Draw at the start of each game

Have each player draw a fortune before a new game begins — it sets a fun, unpredictable tone and gives everyone a personal 'prophecy' to work toward.
