‘It is said to be a terrible curse, to be born under the shadow of 13. As it’s fated that Thirteen itself; a real being of pure bad luck, will come for you when least expected and bring about your unfortunate demise.’

The Fateful Fable of 13 is a grim tale for the 21st century, all about 13 fantastical (but ultimately doomed) characters. Each one is cursed from birth, having been born in the mysterious month of Thirteenber. Bound together by fate, they’re destined to cause one another’s farcical deaths in a chain of unfortunate events, all concocted by the calamatous crooked creature, Thirteen.
The story is being adapted into a Illustration, sculpture and literary extravaganza, and is set to tour the UK. This page showcases all aspects of the project from character design and model production through to the finished sculptures and book illustrations.
