You can use Spellcards crafted by a Spellcard Artist.
Spells that have no target listed can be used with no check; their effects simply happen. For spells that have a target of area, the GM must make a DL appropriate for where you want to throw a card, given the environmental effects (e.g. wind). For spells that have a target of creature, make an Attack Roll using your ranks in Weapon (Card). Your foe makes a Dodge or Parry. If successful, you physically slap the card against your foe or ally (on their forehead or back), but this attack deals no damage.
One a creature is stuck with a card, it is automatically subject to the contained effects. It takes 2 Action Points and a Might check of 15 to pry off a card (it also takes an Gymnastics check of 12 to reach one on your back).
Once the spell duration is elapsed (found in the spell description), the card fizzles out of existence.
