Lords of Waterdeep: Inevitable Betrayal Promo Card

About this expansion

Lords of Waterdeep: Inevitable Betrayal Promo Card is a promotional Intrigue card for the 2–5 player, 60-minute Lords of Waterdeep board game, released in 2012.

This card may be added to the Intrigue Deck before playing. It offers a direct way to disrupt one opponent while strengthening your own Tavern, making its effect especially notable among the available Intrigue cards.

• Location: Play at Waterdeep Harbor.
• Effect: Choose one opponent, then remove 2 gold and an Adventurer of your choice from that opponent’s Tavern and place them in your Tavern.
• After playing: Give Inevitable Betrayal to the chosen opponent.

The card’s title and effect lean into a playful villainous theme, closing with the flavor line, “Cue evil laugh.” Its ability to take both gold and an Adventurer creates a memorable moment before the card changes hands.

The promotional card was offered at the Dungeons and Dragons Experience Con 2012 to people who played the Lords of Waterdeep demo. It was also included in the Lords of Waterdeep: Scoundrels of Skullport expansion with different artwork.

Whether encountered as a convention promotion or through Scoundrels of Skullport, Inevitable Betrayal adds a concise, confrontational option to Lords of Waterdeep. Its simple play condition and clearly defined exchange make it easy to add to the Intrigue Deck before a game begins.
