According to the sides, Layla's last name was Roarke.
Also, I'm not sure if it's a real deck, though it looks like a digital collage style, perhaps like Golden Tarot though definitely not that exact one. I think it's interesting that's the card he shows and not Death or the Devil, which might imply they found one with imagery they liked...but also, they were going with the whole Roy was doing it theory at that point, so it makes sense, too. A tarot site: "We are used to thinking of the Magus (Magician) as one who can demonstrate true hands-on magic (as in healing, alchemical transmutation, charging of talismans and the like). The modern Magus is understood to be a person who can complete the circuit between heaven and earth. We sometimes forget that at the birth of Tarot, even a gifted healer who was not an ordained clergyperson was considered to be in league with the Devil."
If I can find out anything more about a real deck, I'll try and remember to post that.
