I

The project and its premise

$13PC is a narrative-driven memecoin built around mystery, lore challenges, handcrafted characters, and a future NFT universe unlocked by the community. Thirteen animal skulls are engraved into one seal. Each skull stands for a Player kept in shadow: an animal spirit, a future character, and a piece of a larger mythology.

The premise is that the reveal is earned rather than scheduled. The collection does not open on a date. It opens when the community names all thirteen animals. Until then the characters stay sealed, and nobody on the project can shorten that by deciding to.

What is live today is this website, the seal itself, and the channels the project speaks through. There is no token, no contract, no submission mechanism and no collection. The site says so in its first viewport and repeats it in the Open Record, and this document does not soften it.

The artwork is hand-drawn by an in-house artist using a graphic tablet, with zero AI involvement. That is a claim about process, and it is checkable in the work itself.

II

The seal and the thirteen

The seal is a coin. Thirteen animal skulls are engraved into its face, and the coin can be examined on the homepage at full resolution, zoomed and panned. It is the whole puzzle: everything a solver needs is already published.

The thirteen Players behind those skulls are not named anywhere, on this site or off it. Each is shown as a sealed dossier reading identity unknown. There are no partial reveals, no silhouette drops of the answers, and no hints embedded in the dossier copy. Player 13 is treated the same as the other twelve.

Character artwork is drawn after the challenge resolves, not before. Publishing the art early would publish the answers.

Planned

III

The Lore Challenge

The first Lore Challenge asks the community to identify the 13 animals represented by the skulls on the coin. It is the mechanism that opens the collection, and it is the reason the collection is sealed.

The rules as they currently stand

• Name all thirteen animals. The reveal unlocks only when every one is identified.
• Submissions are not open. The chamber shown on the homepage is a preview of the mechanism, not a live form.
• A submission is planned to carry thirteen answers and a wallet address, which is what the preview shows.
• The reward package is three things: a $13PC reward from the reward pool, one NFT of the winner's choice before public mint, and honorary recognition inside the project canon.
• The answer set can be committed before public submissions using a SHA256 hash, so the community can verify the solution was not changed after guesses begin. The hash commitment will be published before submissions open.
• No verified solve yet. The record opens when the challenge begins. The counter on the site reads 0 / 13 and is only ever raised when a skull is genuinely named.

What is not decided

• Entry fee: TBD. Whether entry carries a fee at all, and in which currency, is unresolved. Earlier working notes named amounts on chains the project is not launching on, and no figure from them should be treated as current.
• Leaderboard behaviour: TBD. A leaderboard is planned, but whether it shows anything before the challenge resolves is an open decision. See section IX, where the reason it matters is set out.
• Submission limits: TBD. The intent recorded is one entry per wallet. The enforcement mechanism is not built.
• Clue schedule: TBD. Whether clues are released on a published schedule if the puzzle stalls, and on what cadence, is not decided. Section X explains why this is a real risk rather than a detail.
• Judging and dispute handling: TBD. How near-misses, simultaneous correct entries and contested answers are resolved is not specified.

Planned

IV

The sealed collection

The NFT collection will not be released until it is earned. Only when the first Lore Challenge is solved will the collection be revealed. These are the figures the site carries, with the hedges it carries them under:

• 13 unique characters
• Planned 666 editions per character
• Planned total supply: 8,658 NFTs
• Ethereum-based ERC-721 collection
• Hand-drawn by an in-house artist using a graphic tablet
• Zero AI involvement
• Mint begins only after the Lore Challenge is won
• Planned mint price: 0.13 ETH
• Planned royalties up to 7.5%

Every figure above is planned. None is committed, no contract exists, no date exists, and the supply and mint price in particular are stated on the site as intentions and are treated here the same way. Section X sets out why the supply figure carries real risk.

Planned

V

The token

$13PC is planned for BNB Chain. Nothing below is live yet: no contract is deployed and no funds are being accepted.

The figures the site carries

• Symbol: $13PC
• Network: BNB Chain
• Max supply: 13,000,000,000
• Inflation: 0%

Planned allocation

• Liquidity, 35%
• Presale, 15%
• Community Rewards & Airdrops, 15%
• Team, 15%
• Marketing & Partnerships, 10%
• Ecosystem & Staking, 10%

Tokenomics describe intended architecture and transparency mechanisms only. They are not investment promises, performance projections, or guarantees. That sentence is on the homepage above the same numbers, and it governs this section exactly as it governs that one.

The four launch mechanisms, as planned

• Liquidity, locking planned. Launch architecture reserves the largest allocation for liquidity access and public market formation.
• Vesting, gradual unlocks. Team allocation is framed around vesting rather than immediate release.
• Anti-bot, protection systems. Launch mechanics include anti-bot protections and controlled opening parameters.
• Wallet caps, limit mechanisms. Wallet cap mechanisms are planned to support fairer early distribution.

The token carries no promise of financial return. It grants no dividend, no revenue share, no equity, no claim on assets and no governance right over the project, and this document makes no statement about what it might be worth at any time.

VI

The chains

A staged culture strategy: launch the coin where community momentum is strongest, reserve premium collecting for Ethereum, and expand social distribution through Telegram-native formats. The three gates are not equally decided, and the site labels each one.

Gate I · BNB Chain, the Launch Gate · Planned

• Primary memecoin launch
• Low fees and an audience already trading memecoins
• Liquidity access at launch

Gate II · Ethereum, the Collector Gate · Planned

• Future premium NFT collection
• Where NFT collectors already hold and trade

Gate III · TON, the Social Gate · Exploratory

• Reaches the community inside Telegram, where it already talks

Exploratory means what it says: TON deployment, Telegram NFT gifts and sticker packs appear in the last phase of the roadmap and may not happen at all. Nothing in this document should be read as a commitment to deploy on TON.

Planned

VII

The Sigil Tournament

Thirteen sigils were forged for the Club. The team will not choose the one true mark. The community will. The name and the XIII endure. Only the Club's emblem is put to the vote, and only after launch.

The rites, as planned

• The Pledge. Thirteen sigils, thirteen factions. Each holder pledges to one.
• Who votes. The vote belongs to holders of $13PC at a pre-announced snapshot, above a minimum balance (TBD), to keep the choice in real holders' hands and out of bots'. One eligible wallet, one vote per round.
• The rounds. Each round, the least-backed sigil falls; its faction may re-pledge to a survivor. Rounds repeat until one mark is crowned.
• The spoils. From the winning faction, thirteen members are drawn by provably-fair randomness: the same transparency standard as the Lore Challenge, a verifiable seed, no rigging. Each receives a share of a dedicated pool drawn from the Community Rewards allocation.

Thresholds, the snapshot, the minimum balance, and the cadence are planned and to be announced. Voting opens only after launch, once $13PC is live.

The thirteen contender marks are the one part of this project currently in development with the artist. Until they arrive the contenders are shown sealed, numbered I to XIII, with no placeholder art standing in for work that does not exist.

Planned

VIII

Trust and verification

The launch architecture is designed to make key systems public, verifiable, and easy for the community to track. A mystery can be theatrical without being vague about mechanics.

None of the following is live yet. Each entry will link to verifiable evidence when it exists. The homepage carries the same four entries with the same blank inscription lines, and a blank line there is the honest status rather than a placeholder to be tidied away.

• I. Token contract. Address, mint status, ownership, taxes, published on the explorer.
• II. Liquidity lock. Provider, amount, unlock date, transaction.
• III. Answer commitment. SHA256 of the answer set, published before submissions open; file and salt released at resolution.
• IV. Team vesting. Wallets, cliff, release schedule.

Also planned

• V. Anti-bot systems
• VI. Wallet cap limits
• VII. Transparent reward pool
• VIII. Public community updates
• IX. KYC/AML where required by platform
• X. Legal structure under review

What the project is not claiming

The project holds no audit, and will not use the word audited until an audit report exists and is published. There are no partner logos, no verified badges, no holder counters and no live metrics anywhere on the site, because none of them would be true yet. External audits appear in the roadmap as a planned step before public launch.

Authenticity

No official $13PC contract exists. Any contract claiming to be $13PC is unofficial. Official links appear only on this site. 13 Players Club communicates only through the official channels listed on this website, and nobody working on this project will ever ask you for your seed phrase or private keys.

IX

Decisions still open

These are unresolved, and this document does not pretend otherwise. They are listed because a reader trying to judge the project should be able to see what has not been decided as clearly as what has.

• Whether the leaderboard shows anything before the challenge resolves. Showing how many of a submission's answers are correct, before resolution, turns the leaderboard into an oracle: an attacker with many wallets can brute-force the thirteen answers by reading the feedback. The recommendation on the record is that no live correctness feedback is given and that the leaderboard and runner-up positions publish only after resolution. Not yet decided.
• Entry fee currency, or whether there is a fee. Unresolved, and it must be settled in the launch chain's terms rather than inherited from older notes.
• Whether a published clue schedule exists to keep the challenge from stalling indefinitely.
• How long the page-view data is kept, and where it is processed. The site counts page views with Vercel Web Analytics, added on 13 August 2026. Vercel's documentation for the feature names neither a retention period nor a processing region, and the Privacy Policy records both as still to be established.
• NFT supply and mint price against market reality. 8,658 editions at 0.13 ETH is stated as planned, and is a decision the founder has flagged for review.
• Whether the site ships in more than one language.

Risks

This section is not a footnote. Almost nothing described in this document exists yet, and the honest reading of that is a list of ways it may not come to exist as described.

Risks that are live today

• Impersonation. This is the only risk that can hurt someone tonight. No contract exists, so any token, presale, giveaway or contract address presented as $13PC is fraudulent without exception. Scam sites and accounts imitating pre-launch projects are common. Verify every link against the channels listed on this site.
• Pre-launch change. Everything here is subject to change, including names, numbers, mechanics and sequencing. The roadmap on the site is marked subject to change and this document inherits that.

Risks in the mechanism

• The gating paradox. The collection is locked behind a puzzle. If the community is small or the puzzle is hard, it may stay locked for a long time, and the work behind it stays unreleased with it. This is a structural consequence of the design, not a scenario. A published clue schedule is the mitigation under consideration, and it is not yet decided.
• Oracle leakage in the leaderboard. If correctness feedback is published before resolution, the puzzle can be brute-forced by an attacker with many wallets rather than solved. See section IX.
• Dispute over the solve. With judging rules still TBD, a contested or simultaneous solve is currently unhandled.

Risks in delivery

• Single-artist dependency. Every piece of artwork, the sigils, the skulls and the thirteen characters, depends on one in-house artist. That is what makes the zero-AI claim true and it is also a single point of failure for the whole schedule.
• Collection size. 8,658 editions at a planned 0.13 ETH is ambitious for a debut collection, and there is no assurance that a collection of that size finds that many collectors.
• Content load. Lore drops, music, clips and campaigns are a continuous operational commitment. Phases IV and V of the roadmap depend on sustaining it.
• Chain expansion may not happen. TON is exploratory. Treat it as a possibility, not a plan.

Risks in the token

• $13PC is a meme token. It carries no promise of financial return, and nothing on this site constitutes financial advice. Participation is voluntary and entirely at your own risk.
• Smart contract risk. No contract has been written, deployed or audited. Contracts can contain flaws that are not visible before they are exploited, and an audit reduces that risk without removing it.
• Market risk. Tokens of this kind are volatile and illiquid, and a holder can lose the entire value of what they put in.
• Execution risk. A plan on this page may be delayed, changed or abandoned. Nothing here is a commitment to deliver on a date.
• Custody risk. Self-custody mistakes are irreversible. Nobody from this project will ever ask for your seed phrase or private keys.

Regulatory and legal risk

• The legal structure of the project is under review, and no entity is named on the site.
• The treatment of tokens and NFTs differs between jurisdictions and continues to change. Rules that apply at launch may not be the rules that apply later, and may restrict who can participate or how.
• KYC/AML requirements will apply where required by platform, and the specifics are not settled.

XI

Status of every component

One table, and it is the summary of this whole document. If a component is not listed here, it has not been decided on at all.

Live means it exists now and can be checked. In development means work is under way and it is not finished. Planned means it is intended and not started, or started and not committed to. Exploratory means it is being considered and may never happen. Roadmap subject to change.
