A first-generation Northerner of mixed Cherokee-Blackfoot and Gullah-Geechee heritage, Robert Lucas (aka “Unkle Rob”) grew up surrounded by the artifacts and rituals of South Carolina Conjure, a secretive branch of family folk magic  traditionally passed from parents and extended family to child:

An adolescent fascination with the occult lead Rob first to Wicca, and then later to the works of Anton LaVey – “A lot of these ideas tempered me,” he laughs, “even today I would say that I still have a lot of respect for Lavey and what he accomplished.” But the focus of his research always remained on ancestral spirits and traditions.

A priest of the Muna Lemba lineage of Palo Mayombe, Rob today lives in Garfield Heights, OH, where he splits his time between family, motorcycles and building his Palo Mayombe munanso (temple).
