Background:
 
The Zammer Twins, born in 1745 in Weissembourg, France, were conjoined twins with extraordinary abilities. Karl was an intuitive artist and master engraver, while Otto was clairvoyant. Together, they captivated European nobility with their magical act. In 1765, they were commissioned by Frederick the Great to create a deck of cards, but they kept the powerful deck for themselves and became outcasts. They later supported Napoleon and regained social standing. A rivalry with a magician named Gilbert Tate led to their downfall; they were poisoned and died in 1808. The twins sought revenge through a tragic chain of events that led to the deaths of Tate and Daphne Webb, a woman involved in the feud. Their oracle deck, thought to be lost, has been rediscovered and meticulously recreated.
