That card has "abduction" spelled incorrectly, twice.

Do you mean because it's capitalized? :)

No. It was spelled something like "abudction" in two places. :Thmbsup:

Oh, you never know. I mean, for all we know, "abudction" might be a word in Esperanto or Klingon (say) that meant "to have gone back in time", or something, and it might have been spelled correctly, though whether it would be the correct word to use in that sentence would be quite another matter.    :o

That might hold water if it were not spelled correctly two other times in the same context.  :-\

BTW, I recently completed my first half-marathon:

Wow.. Congratulations.  :Thmbsup:

I run 10ks fairly regularly, but I am nowhere near being able to run a half marathon

I was wearing Nike running shoes but my feet were hurting abominably by mile 4. I've ordered a pair of UnderArmour HOVR sneakers.

Well, I'm impressed with both of you.  I'm done after 1 mile.

I decided to write the computer RPG version before working on the card game:

Here's a couple of screenshots and an excerpt from the tutorial introduction:

Welcome to Earth Apotheosis, a game that allows you to roleplay to your preferred depth. If you just want to own and run an inn, you can end your advancement there. On the other hand, you can embroil your character in plots, relationships — even a form of politics.

In the Earth of the far future, societies have collapsed, science has languished, magic has emerged, and the world has begun to renew itself from whatever cataclysm has left such sketchy evidence of the past.

Moreover, not even the most learned scholars of the current day can accurately estimate the current date in relation to the Gregorian calendar of the "ancient" world.

Life is hard due to disease, monsters, marauders, violent weather, and scarcity. It's made even tougher by suspicion, stigma, and violently contested resources.

The general technology level is medieval. There is a quad-level caste system (Rolshîm) observed by those who choose the marginally greater safety of community living, while those with some command of eldritch forces or ancient artifacts sometimes choose to risk a life of exploration and the seeking of answers about the past.

I wasn't prepared for the half-marathon, and walked the last 4-5 miles  :P  In the weeks since then, I've been gradually lengthening my runs. Longest to date is 10.14mi. I will train throughout the winter, because my running buddy and I want to be in the full 26.2 mile marathon in Nashville next April. I won't even consider enrolling unless I can work up to 26 mile practice runs.
