As I hope is the case for most EWPs. It's fun to create tension and drama amongst the heroes. |_P

I use a different type of EWD, well several really, theres a Greenskin deck, a warriors of chaos deck, an undead deck, a traps deck, a ruins deck, a fortress deck etc etc
each deck is only a few cards, maybe 2 to 8 and each quest has instructions on which deck(s) to use
so if the mission is raiding a dungeon filled with orcs youd add the greekskin, fortress and maybe the traps deck, if the dungeon is exploring the site of an anceint castle youd add the undead and ruins deck plus a few others. shuffle them up and each quest has its own unique Evil wizard deck. the EWP player draws a card from the top of his deck at the start of his turn
each card of the EWD is split into 3 parts, fate, destiny and a spell. fate happens - its an instruction: 'place 2 orcs on the board next to a hero' (from the greenskin deck) or 'Gas trap - choose the room with the most heroes in - each hero loses 1 body point' (from the trap deck)
the second part is destiny - theres an IF condition, if its met, follow the instruction 'If any zombies have been killed this round, ressurect them as skeletons'
third is the spell, this is at the EWP's discretion and could be anything from buffing or healing mosnters, directly attacking or debuffing heroes etc. its up the the EWP is they want to play it.
If i ever get round to making up some of these cards properly, i might post them up here.

My god that is a super idea! Love how it's split into three. "Destiny"...just wow. I toyed with the idea of making a themed EWP deck, such a an "ice" theme for the frozen horror etc. Feel free to post up what's written on the cards, no need to produce them.
