Cards mean everything here.
If you want rations, you can buy them with a pair of twos.
If you want matches, you need a pair of threes.
A full house, sevens over tens, lets you conjure fireballs.
And four aces give you a second life.
How do you get cards?
You play fun little challenges using the cards you already have. If you win, you get cards. If you lose, you either lose a part of yourself or your card.
A two saves a fingernail while the queen saves a lung.
Monsters? What are you talking about? Those are people, just like you. They've simply had to pay. After all, everything has a price, and there are always ways to repay your debts. Don't think about it too much.
Do what you can to win, and you could achieve even your wildest wishes. Power and riches come to many here. Even immortality isn't off the table. Doesn't that sound exciting?
Please come down to The House of Cards. We will surely enjoy your stay.

The Killer "Joker"
My first time publishing please read patiently.
Jack is always surrounded by mystery born in the 20th century where they are more evils that good.
He is aware of the changes around him and he didn't care since him and his loved ones are happy and save. Happiness is forever so he thought.
When tragedy struck at those around him, he taught law was the solution and that the law enforcement officers (police) will help and bring him justice.
Then, he saw the bad side of society, the system that no one could help him.
That when he decided to put the matter into his own hands.
JOKER
----------------------------------------------------------
Context:
There are two people in the middle of a deserted street at 4 @am.
Rain falling heavily creating a sound proof around.
One of them standing and stepping on the other person on the floor with their backs touching the cold floor and the rain is watching their bleeding body that never seems to end.
"Please Joker forgive me, I have wife and kids waiting for me to come home", pleaded victim 1.
Joker responded menacingly while starting at the man with a cold glear and blood shot eyes, " so you have a life to live? you choosed this path. You should have made a better decision 2 years ago".
The man seeing that Joker wouldn't let him go cried while looking at the floor thinking that it was truly his fault he made that mistake and moved on which was wrong.
But it was too late to say sorry.
Joker stared at him nonchalantly getting impatient to go home and sleep since was past his bed time.
Pissed off by the man attitude and state, he said to him.
" Stop being a man baby no matter how you cry you are going to die anyways".
After speaking, he took his rider gloves from his back pocket and started to wear it getting ready for his next act.
Bending down to swat to mach the man's eye level, he holds his victim chin to make eye contact.
Tilting his head to the right he asked his victim coldly, any last words?
The man started at Joker for a moment by now he had already stopped crying and the rain automatically stopped too.
It seems that time was slowing down. Opening his mouth slowly he wanted to tell his wishes but it was already too late.
Joker had already snapped his neck in an instant.
"Tsk on a second thought when you took action two years ago you didn't give them a chance either, right?", he said talking to the already dead body.
After taking his gloves from his hands and putting it in his back pocket he used his pinky finger to clean his ear and said, " Good luck on the other side".
He then stepped over the body while on his way back home. After some distance he paused and turned around.
"That is..... if some over there will take you of course", he said after thinking then continued on his way.

Jolly Joker Mage
Forty-five year old ex-military Julian "Jolly Joker" James was fishing as part of his stress relieving plan for the weekend when the skies eventually exploded. He survived what he called a catastrophe. Little did he know the world he live in changed and became a world for mages.
In the fanfiction, the nomad might face various challenges and difficulties after getting hurt. Maybe they have to rely on the help of allies or find their own way to recover.
There were novels similar to Nomadism:
1: The Three Kingdoms Begins with Zhang Fei, Author: Long Xiang Feng Zhu
2:"The Ming Dynasty Can't Die", Author: A Key Person
3." The Richest Man on Earth Begins in the Primitive Wilderness." Author: Happy Popcorn
The following is a detailed introduction of these novels:
1." The Three Kingdoms Begins from Fooling Zhang Fei ": Chen Su traveled to the Later Han Dynasty and became the son of Chen Deng, the leader of Xuzhou scholars.
Liu Bei was leading his troops outside, and Zhang Fei was reckless and careless. Seeing that Xuzhou was about to be stolen, what should he do?
Of course, he had to fool Zhang Fei and defend Xu Prefecture first…
2." The Ming Dynasty Cannot Die ": Cross the Ming Dynasty and become Zhu Youjian.
In order to avoid the tragic end of Zhu Youjian, he could only work hard to make the country prosperous, develop and reform, and rejuvenate the country through science and technology!
In his hands, Da Ming absolutely could not die.
And he could not be the ruler of a subjugated country!
3." The richest man on Earth starts from the primitive wilderness ": War is terrible. It can destroy everything.
If human civilization were to disappear and return to the era of drilling wood to make fire, gathering and hunting for a living, would you still be able to survive?
Entering the wilderness, our global competition has begun!
They ventured deep into the Amazon rainforest, survived the storm on rafts, and escaped from the death strangulation of giant pythons...
They would go back to the place where Su Wu was herding sheep, feel the cold wind of-50 degrees Celsius in Siberia, and fight with the wild wolves that were rushing towards them...
The canoe sailed across the ocean, and not only did it face the surging waves, but when you wanted to eat fish, the great white shark opened its bloody mouth and bit you…
" What happened to the animals that tried to bite you?" asked the reporter.
Lin Zheng: " The protein has turned into an amine acid, and it has injected…powerful energy into my body!"
The story had to start from the North American continent, hunting, gathering, fishing, catching turkeys, smelting copper, forging iron, and making porcelain…
In 30 days, they had embarked on a path of civilization that the Native Americans had never taken in tens of thousands of years.
At first, every step was frightening. There were so many snakes in the valley!
You can read these novels on Qidian Chinese Network.
One great Maverick x Nomad fanfiction is 'The Bond Beyond Duty'. It really delves into their relationship in a post - mission scenario. The characters are well - developed and the story has a great plot that keeps you engaged from start to finish.
