📖 A First Look
— The Gallery

The world of Yorubaland.

A visual first look at the locations, characters, architecture, and pantheon of Orishas: Owner of the Palace — drawn from the campaign deck Curatorfy Studio shared with patrons and backers.

The trio — Marcos, Ebro, the Queen — against Yorubaland
— ARC 01 —Dallas

Marcos’s last night.

It opens in present-day Dallas. Deep Ellum lights. A house full of friends. One notification on a phone. By dawn Marcos Jackson will walk toward a future he has not yet imagined.

— ARC 02 —The IFA Compound

The Infinite Fate Advisor.

Underground. Vast. Built into the earth. The IFA is where Ascendants are forged — ten brutal months of instruction, sparring rings carved into amphitheaters, dormitories cut into stone, a training dome the size of a city.

— ARC 03 —The IFÁ Mind

The infinite divination system.

Beyond the training arena lives the IFÁ’s other dimension — the corpus of Yoruba wisdom, the scholar’s archive, the libraries where every choice ever made by an Ascendant has been recorded and read back as fate.

300 years forward.

A reclaimed empire. The Oyo throne sits vacant. Lagos, Ibadan, Ilorin, Shango’s Estate. A geography written in gold against black. The map remembers what the empire forgot.

— ARC 05 —The Pantheon

The vessel, the apex, the queen.

Marcos as the Vessel of Thunder, Lightning, and Fire. Ebro as the Apex Orisha — ageless, dimensional, cunning. The Queen of the empty palace. The Orisha pantheon rendered as god-kings and god-queens in storm.

— A NOTE —On the visuals
Pre-approved imagery · Concept phase

Every image on this page was selected from OOTP — A First Look, the campaign deck used during the Kickstarter run. They are concept renders developed during the visualization phase of the project — used to test tone, layout, and presentation. Final illustrations, cover design, coin production, character art, and physical items will be completed through original work by M.L. Remy and other human collaborators as the project enters production.
