You flip the deterministic coin. It soars high into the air. Suddenly you feel a strange vibration coming from the oculum felis in your hand. It grows warm, and a bright golden beam shoots out into the night and spears the deterministic coin. The light seems to hold the coin aloft, and a pulsing, ringing sound fills the night air. The oculum felis pulses with one last brilliant flash, so bright you can't see for a moment. When your vision returns, the deterministic coin is gone, but something else is floating in its place. | You flip the deterministic coin. It soars high into the air.

This coin has a heads side and a tails side, just like any other coin. Unlike other coins, this one only comes up heads. It's not rigged or anything, it's just consistent. Some people see this as a sign of predetermined fate; others just think it's a handy indicator that tells you what to do ahead of time.
