Description
--- <TLDR> Inevitable Betrayal is a promotional Intrigue card for Lords of Waterdeep that steals 2 gold and an Adventurer from an opponent's Tavern at Waterdeep Harbor, then transfers to the victim. </TLDR> Key mechanics include: - *Resource theft*: Choose 1 opponent and remove 2 gold plus an Adventurer of your choice from their Tavern, placing them in your own Tavern. - *Location restriction*: Must be played at Waterdeep Harbor. - *Attack classification*: Designated as an Attack card. - *Card transfer*: After playing, give the card to the targeted opponent. - *Deck integration*: May be added to the Intrigue Deck before the game begins. - *Promotional origin*: Offered at Dungeons & Dragons Experience Con 2012 for Lords of Waterdeep demo players; later included in Scoundrels of Skullport expansion with alternate artwork. - *Flavor text*: Ends with "Cue evil laugh." Inevitable Betrayal is a special promotional Intrigue card for the Lords of Waterdeep board game, distributed at the Dungeons & Dragons Experience Con 2012 to players who participated in the game's demo. It can be optionally added to the Intrigue Deck prior to gameplay and features the same mechanics in the Lords of Waterdeep: Scoundrels of Skullport expansion, albeit with different artwork. As an Attack card playable exclusively at Waterdeep Harbor, it enables the active player to select one opponent, confiscate 2 gold and a single Adventurer of their choosing from that opponent's Tavern, and relocate those resources to their own Tavern. Following execution, the card must be handed over to the targeted opponent, introducing ongoing strategic implications and embodying betrayal mechanics with its thematic "Cue evil laugh" quote. ---
