The Council Lookbook
One place to track the marble-and-gold pantheon: the locked look, the chosen faces, and what is still to generate. Updated 2026-06-18.
The rules every oracle inherits
These are decided. New generations must obey them.
Medium
Living marble-and-gold Hellenistic busts. Polished stone flesh, fine gold veins (kintsugi), faint inner constellations glowing at brow, throat, heart.
The eyes, two states
Glowing gold eyes at rest, real living eyes when the oracle speaks. The statue wakes when it talks to you. We render both per character and crossfade them.
Clothed & posable
Draped cream-and-gold robes, not bare busts. Full body, arms, and attributes come from each character's trained Soul.
Stone-tone diversity
The pantheon is carved from a range of real stones, cream, honey, bronze, near-black-with-gold, verde, for genuine diversity. Atlas stays cream (Western anchor).
Palette & light
Deep emerald, gold, cream only. Single warm gold rim light, deep emerald shadow, starfield void background, soft gold aura.
Crop
Square 1:1, chest-up bust, slight three-quarter turn, distinct readable silhouette at small size. Transparent-background version for use beside each voice.
Sophia & Atlas
Sophia (flowing hair) is your pick and becomes the pantheon reference. Atlas is the system itself, now tempered from warrior toward astrologer-sage, pick one.
Stone-tone diversity, proven
Both approved. They show the range reads beautifully against the same world.
