In Lord of the Mysteries, power isn't gained through simple trainingโit's achieved through the Pathway system, a complex web of 22 distinct routes to transcendence. Each pathway corresponds to a Major Arcana tarot card and offers unique abilities and dangers.
Understanding the Pathway System
How Pathways Work
Every Beyonder pathway consists of 10 sequences, numbered from 9 (lowest) to 0 (highest):
- Sequence 9-7: Low sequences, relatively common Beyonders
- Sequence 6-4: Mid sequences, powerful and rare
- Sequence 3-1: High sequences, legendary beings
- Sequence 0: Godhoodโthe pathway's ultimate form
The Acting Method
The key to safely advancing lies in the Acting Methodโembodying the name and nature of your sequence. This method, rediscovered by Roselle Gustav, is crucial for maintaining control over Beyonder powers.

If you've delved into the dark, intricate world of Lord of the Mysteries, you know that tarot cards aren't just fortune-telling toolsโthey're the very foundation of the power system.

Understanding Tarot in Lord of the Mysteries
The Connection Between Tarot and Beyonder Pathways
In the LOTM universe, the 22 Major Arcana cards directly correspond to the 22 Beyonder Pathways. The pathways are literally named after the Major Arcana:
- The Fool (Sequence 0 of the Fool Pathway)
- The Hanged Man (Sequence 0 of the Hanged Man Pathway)
- The Sun (Sequence 0 of the Sun Pathway)
- The Moon (Sequence 0 of the Moon Pathway)
And so on, for all 22 pathways. This elegant design creates a rich tapestry where mysticism and power intertwine.
The Significance of Sequence Numbers
Each pathway contains 10 sequences, numbered from 9 (the weakest) to 0 (the most powerfulโGod-level). As Beyonders advance through the sequences, they gain increasingly powerful abilities while also risking losing their humanity.
The Cards of Blasphemy: LOTM's Most Powerful Artifacts
The Cards of Blasphemy are the most significant artifacts in the LOTM universe. Created by Roselle Gustavโthe transmigrator who became Emperorโthese cards contain forbidden knowledge about the 22 pathways and the secrets of becoming a god.
Each card contains:
- The complete potion formulas for a specific pathway
- The names of the corresponding Sequence 0 (God)
- Acting methods for advancement
- Secrets about the pathway's characteristics
