fun bard casting tool idea

Rookk

this one is one that if ever added i would both suggest and hope ONLY would even be considered to be added after launch as like an expansion or something but still i wanna put this idea out there cause i like it but it could be fun to see things like dice and cards become a weapon for bards as they use their tools to cast their spells through telling a story of lady luck playing her part in the unfolding events or somethin with i just love the idea of a class that perhaps would be in a way, based around rng although not in the traditional 'pure random chance' way but instead in a using your resources to give yourself the heart of the cards with limited ways to regen your resources because of that power you get meaning you need to spend your resources wisely lest you get left with purely whatever lady luck deems fit... honestly i just love the idea of basically fucking with what both is and isnt a universal constant in such a weird and fun way XD

edit: this is the song that made me think of this idea btw, see if it gets you feeling the same vibes i would imagine a gambler bard would have

a fantasy you hope to carry out

As a fan of the DeckOfManyThings,Bag of Tricks (for summoner), wand of wonder from Dungeon and Dragon.

A TheFool and funny Vek Grandma protected by fate and extraordinarily good luck. Or she could see and twist the intertwined wheels of fate causing very bad unlucky chain of events to her opponents and luck to her friends. a mix of Gaal Dornick(Foundation adaptation), Mat Cauthon from (wheel of time) and Domino (Marvel).
or accidental Hero
Maybe with some Cat Pet

I love Astrology and Astronomy aesthetic, tarot Arcana, Maya calendar, etc.

For gameplay i wish to play a mix of Arcana (Lost ark) proc based class with control over rng comboing your proc effects, Astrologian because RNG is accepted by players if it's for supporting them (FF14), Dancer for the cascade triggers(FF14), wild , the most fun class i ever played(BG2), Wild sorcerer and BarbarianWildMagic(BG3) and every class from D&D/pathfinder paper with a wild magic touch(like wellspring mage), Cascade and Storm decks from MTG. (i could add rng based character from other class, i searched them a lot ^^). in aoc this could be Chaos magic and an embodiment of Risk vs Reward
(i could add Corsair FFXI)
LadyLuck from FFX-2


i imagine many wheels of fate intertwined, each symbol on them being being a special effect
About luck WondrousWisdomball is my favorite quest reward (with yogg saron wheel), having kadgar helping you sometimes and making comments his very funny, i would love to have something like that in game, could be a pet, a summon or an intelligent item


I'm a fan of Pierre Richard unlucky movie characters but domino is more popular this days i guess.

a class without rotation and a good rng system is the only way i could play this game without being bored by doing the same things again and again and again.

ps: this game really miss a dual wield ranged weapon (throwing knives/dagger/axes/wand)
