Treachery

Curse.

Mythos

Revelation - Test (3). For each point you fail by, discard 1 random card from your hand. For each card you cannot discard, take 1 horror or 1 damage. This test gets +1 difficulty for each copy of Diabolic Voices in the encounter discard pile.

The infernal wailing and cackling rattle endlessly through your mind.

FAQs

(from the official FAQ or responses to the official rules question form)
  • Q: I draw Diabolic Voices and I fail the test by 3 with 5 cards in my hand, including 1 Deny Existence. If I play Deny Existence at this point, how many cards can I ignore to discard? A: If you fail Diabolic Voices by 3, you can use Deny Existence to ignore all three of the discards, because the effect is “resolved simultaneously.”

  • Q: If I have 1 Hidden Unspeakable Oath in my 5 card hand, what should I do if a card ability, such as Diabolic Voices, tells me to "discard 1 random card from your hand"? Do I put Unspeakable Oath aside, then shuffle the remaining 4 cards and discard them randomly? Or still shuffle the five cards and if I randomly discard Unspeakable Oath, because Hidden cards cannot be discarded, in line with the sentence "For each card you cannot discard, choose to take 1 horror or 1 damage", take 1 horror or damage? Essentially, if it's a Hidden card, how should I "discard 1 random card"? A: Hidden cards specifically cannot leave your hand by any means except those described on the card. If a game effect would have you discard a card at random, that card cannot be a Hidden card. If you would discard a Hidden card that you selected randomly, redo the effect so that your Hidden card remains in hand and a different card is discarded.
