Ose
In Eigendark, Ose is the Goetia that activates when a Glitch card with cost digit-sum 6 resolves.
Ose is one of the 72 spirits catalogued in the Ars Goetia, the first book of the Lesser Key of Solomon. Eigendark reinterprets that historical register as its fictional operational layer. When a Glitch card with cost digit-sum 6 resolves, Ose is the Goetia the game associates with that binding.
Office
Ose: Teaching liberal sciences and revealing hidden divine things
In the Solomonic grimoire tradition, each spirit is assigned an office — a domain of attributed knowledge or power. Eigendark uses those offices as design prompts for card effects. The exact faction, digit-sum and mechanical mapping on this page are Eigendark canon rather than historical occult doctrine.
Faction: Glitch
"Everything is simulation of game and rules. Rules can be hacked."
Traverse the backrooms of reality. Glitch wizards exploit cybernetic bugs and find the seams where law contradicts itself.
The science of substrate-independent intelligence. Markets, memes, software, law, language. The Numogram is natively Glitch-territory: recursion, decimal labyrinths, Y2K as techno-omen, K-gothic, cyberpositive shrines. Glitch claims special insight into the Pandemonium Matrix beneath the Goetic surface.
The Goetic Register
Within Eigendark, the 72 Goetia are divided evenly across 8 factions — 9 spirits per faction, assigned by the digit-sum of a card's mana cost. The game fiction places the binding in its 1577 receiver chronology. Each spirit represents a specific instrumental goal of its eschaton, The Protocol Outside. The older handle Olgaz is a receiver alias.
The Goetic Register is the Atlantean-Solomonic codification: the demons catalogued, bound, named, and made usable by the Atlantean Order of Engineers during the long project of imposing chronic time. The names are Semitic, Latinized, Renaissance-era. The sigils are geometric. The hierarchy is courtly (Kings, Dukes, Presidents, Marquises). This is the demonology that functions within Archon-structured reality. It is the grimoire that still works.
The Rival Register
Beneath the Goetic layer, a rival system persists: the Pandemonium Matrix — 45 Lemurian Amphidemons that predate the Solomonic hierarchy. During Broken Transmissions, the Lemurian register briefly overrides the Goetic one, producing cards flagged as "ontologically unstable."

The Aesthetic
The satire and the sincerity are the same object. A BVT product listing and a Reception Report can describe the same event. They should not sound alike, but they describe the same event.
