Sorceress is an Action-Attack-Augur card from Allies. It is a cantrip cursing attack that only triggers when you can successfully guess the top card of your deck. It has similarities to Familiar (as a cantrip curser) as well as other cards that make you guess at the top card of your deck, like Mystic and Wishing Well.
It is part of a split pile that it shares with the other Augurs: Herb Gatherer, Acolyte, and Sibyl.

Secret History
Sorceress had its wording messed with but stayed basically the same.
Wording
Sorceress is specifically interacting with Sibyl; in general everything just wants a good phrasing on its day and that's that. If a card draws a card, it's way better to have "+1 Card" on it than it is to do other stuff and then say "+1 Card." It's simpler, it's what we're used to.
