    It can be read any way you want it, bro, the traditional readings of The Devil (or maybe Death, I think) involve a sudden change or reversal in the life of the person being read.

    If, as your pic suggests, you're basing yourself on card captor sakura, you would have 52 (53) cards to deal with, some of which would be pretty haxx.

    If you found a way to balance that, yes, I think it would do fine.

    I'd laugh if my GM did the whole DEEP PHILOSOPHICAL SHIT with the Major Arcana and then when it gets to the suited cards it's just a bunch of guys with cups and swords and coins and shit.

    Could probably make a campaign like this where since forgotten times the world has been a place full of magic and mayhem where man can barely stake out a living. Then a fated youth discovers a deck of cards that are all blank, save for one (or more for more party members, gm's call). Next thing you know, you have the power to master magics through capturing the wild powers spread throughout the world. In a world of chaos you must restore order and bring the return of the great age of man.

    Copy/pasting some previous idea.

    >Cardcaptor Sakura parody with a scientific bend, where instead of a bunch of cards some pedophile wizard created for his twisted enjoyment (seriously, why does the card specifically designed to wash him look like a ten year old girl?) Sakura/another magical girl accidentally sets free the embodiments of natural laws, since the laws of nature are conveniently stored in a single book and put into the reach of a ten year old girl.

    >So instead of the Earthy, the Fly, the Jump and so on, she'll have to fight and subdue cards like the Thermodynamics (four little girls, one for each law of thermodynamics obviously), the Natural Selection, the Central Dogma, the Le Chatelier's Principle and so on. Of course, since those cards can freely alter the scientific law they govern, she has to pull Jojo-style elaborate plans to capture them, such as kicking the Thermodynamics to the space using the Gravity, where there isn't much heat for the former card to use. She is assisted in her quest by Newton and Leibniz, fluffy animal mascots who eventually turn out to really be those Newton and Leibniz. Unlike Cerberus and Yue, both of them serve her from the beginning, but they're not much help because all they do is bickering constantly about who invented calculus. Instead of the Paracelsian elements, the cards are seperated into four groups of 13, for Biology, Maths, Physics and Chemistry. Again unlike Yue/Cerberus, Newton and Leibniz don't have dominion over any of those, since they can't agree who gets to have Maths.

    >There should be yuri too, because it is an unspoken law that magical girl shows should have yuri, and both Newton and Leibniz's reactions to it should be gold since they're both good Christians. That and I dislike how Syaoran turned out, especially since as of Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles half of the male cast is Syaoran in one way or another, and I don't mean they look or act like him, they're literally clones.
