Malos Aires. El Pampero. The map beyond everything.
An original expanding saga created by Argentine writer Luis Ramírez, where urban myth, Gotan, crime, folklore, and the supernatural collide across connected worlds.
TGP Universe is an original expanding saga created by Luis Ramírez. It begins in Malos Aires — The City of the Three Obelisks, world-capital of Gotan, heart of The Southern Lands — and expands into El Pampero: a legendary second state where emptiness becomes myth, land becomes memory, and every road points toward a deeper mystery.
Where urban myth collides with epic folklore. Where performance and crime share the same stage. Where every street corner in Malos Aires hides a secret that echoes across worlds you haven't been told about yet.
This is not a single story. This is the beginning of a franchise.

Two worlds. Two stories. One universe in motion.
Book One
The story begins in the City of the Three Obelisks. A cosmopolitan metropolis bewitched by the need to return — where Gotan shapes power and desire, and five strangers are thrown into something older and stranger than any of them expected.
Book Two
Beyond the city, the wind tells different stories. El Pampero is a world of gauchos, maps, ancient memory, and the defense of culture at the edge of war — where the silence is the loudest voice and the land remembers everything.
"Malos Aires is not just a city. It is a ritual, a machine of art and crime, a cultural capital where Gotan shapes identity, power, desire, and destiny."
A cosmopolitan metropolis bewitched by the need to return. To the east, the Río Plateado. To the west, north, and south — seven states surround it. Above it all, three obelisks stand as symbols of power, memory, and identity.
Here, every plaza, station, and avenue can become a stage — or a battlefield. The world's greatest artists and the world's most dangerous criminals share the same city and sometimes the same room.
Malos Aires never stops. Its streets breathe with Gotan — the force that shapes dancers, criminals, poets, and politicians alike. It is prophetic, fatal, glamorous, and dangerous. Every return to this city costs something new.
The Dance That Conquered the World
Gotan is the characteristic dance of Malos Aires — the art that carries the city's name across the world. It is music, movement, poetry, elegance, and identity. But in TGP Universe, Gotan also hides a deeper force. Behind the stage lights, the rituals, the competitions, and the beauty, there is a power that many admire, many exploit, and very few truly understand.
Gotan moves through the city like a public art and a private code. Dancers, musicians, poets, tourists, criminals, and power figures all orbit around it. For some, it is beauty. For others, it is business. For a few, it is a door to something far more dangerous.
"The land where nothing seems to be everything…"
El Pampero is the second state: a land so vast and flat it is mistaken for nothing. But in TGP Universe, that nothing is the secret. It is a world of gauchos, maps, wind, old memory, and the defense of culture at the edge of war.
Where Malos Aires burns with spectacle, El Pampero breathes with silence. This is not a western. This is The Southern Lands turned mythic — ancestral, territorial, legendary, and spiritually alive in ways the city has forgotten how to see.
The story begins with five souls from Malos Aires. Each one carries a wound, a gift, and a destination they do not yet understand.
Malos Aires runs on layers. Every institution, every performance, every street has a power structure underneath it — and none of them are what they first appear.
The police force of Malos Aires — organized by color rank, operating inside a world of corruption, political pressure, and criminal infiltration. They are not purely heroic. In this city, order and power share the same address.
They control the shows, the dancers, the musicians, the singers, and the elite access to the Gotan ecosystem. They are the curators of desire — and the most elegant power brokers in the city.
The street-level operatives of the Gotan underworld. Five types. Five roles. The infrastructure of crime that runs beneath every performance, every venue, every tourist route in Malos Aires.
The global elite of money, influence, and power who converge on Malos Aires. They do not live in the city — they use it. And whatever they want from it, they get.
Some things in TGP Universe are not yet fully known. They are felt — in the structure of the story, in the weight of certain names, in the silence around certain questions.
The transition from Book I to Book II is not just the next adventure. It is a shift in scale and mythic language — from the density of the city to the immensity of the land.
The city ends. The land begins. Something is waiting in the silence that Malos Aires was never wide enough to contain.

Argentine Writer · Artist · Choreographer · Illusionist · Creator of TGP Universe
In Buenos Aires, 1992, a young artist drew the first page of Humanimal — a comic that no publisher had asked for, in a universe that didn't yet have a name. That first page was the first stone. Thirty-four years later, it is still the foundation of everything.
The decades between then and now were not empty. Luis Ramírez built his life through performance — through the great stages of the South. He created three international Gotan productions — ConjuroTango, Tango Story, and Tango Miracle — and carried them across the world. He performed and produced at Señor Tango, Esquina Carlos Gardel, and El Viejo Almacén. He worked at Teatro Colón. He moved through ballet, flamenco, and Latin dance with the ease of someone who understood that every discipline is a different language for the same essential question. In 2004, he began his creative partnership with choreographer and dancer Analia Carreño — a collaboration that has shaped everything since. He served as a judge at the World Tango Championship.
Luis Ramírez also studied magic as a discipline of perception, influenced by the legacy of René Lavand, the legendary Argentine illusionist. That sense of wonder, silence, mystery, and emotional precision echoes through TGP Universe — not as explanation, but as atmosphere.
TGP Universe is the convergence of all of it. A designer who understands how images carry meaning. An artist trained in bodies, movement, and spectacle. A writer who understands time — how long a universe must breathe before it becomes real. The saga is not finished. It has only just begun to be seen.
