Provenance

Where it came from

The Confession Dial card appears in the Doctor Who Magic: The Gathering set, released in 2023 to celebrate the long-running British science fiction series. The item is classified as an artifact card, representing the mysterious Gallifreyan device used by the Twelfth Doctor to endure a cycle of psychological torture and meditation while trapped within his own memories.

The card features artwork by Narendra Bintara Adi, who rendered the dial as an imposing, geometric object reflecting its narrative significance. The design captures the eerie, isolated atmosphere of the episode Heaven Sent, focusing on the intricate carvings of the dial to emphasize its role as a vessel for the Doctor's struggle and eventual revelation.
