The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).

Taenia Crinium
It hungers.
UA-566 is a sapient entity dwelling inside of the body of a roughly 30-year-old biologically male human. The entity inside of UA-566 claims to be the collective consciousness of the symbiotic organisms living inside of the body. It claims to not understand human socio-emotional concepts such as art or self-expression. It seems to have a preservation instinct informed by experience with human technology, as it has always attempted to avoid firearms, knives, and electric shock during testing.
The most noticeable anomalous quality of UA-566 after initial containment is the carnivorous parasite (Taenia crinium) housed in its neck and scalp, henceforth referred to as UA-566-A. UA-566-A is completely fused with the primary body of UA-566, and efforts to remove the parasite has lead to the near-death of UA-566 numerous times (see Transcription:1-4A). UA-566-A is comprised of numerous tendrils that grow from the host's scalp, disguising itself as thick, oily hair. These tendrils can extend a surprising length from the central body of the host and easily squeeze through tight spaces. Underneath the tendrils is a gnashing mouth at the base of UA-566's neck that is constantly pulls perceived food into itself. A number of thorny teeth have also grown out of the central mouth of UA-566-A, buried within the pseudo-hair as well as at the top UA-566's forehead, forming a line of sharp bones reminiscent of a crown.
It is apparent that UA-566-A has a level of autonomous control that occasionally overrides the collective consciousness inside of UA-566. UA-566-A has grappled and bitten a number of researchers in the past, and testing on UA-566 now requires a metal hairnet to keep UA-566-A under control.
UA-566 claims that UA-566-A is a "new addition" to it's "collection," and therefore struggles to follow the commands of the central consciousness. It claims to be improving its control over UA-566-A but a statistical analysis of recent incidents involving UA-566 have demonstrated this to likely be a falsehood.
*Addendum 566-1:* It appears as though UA-566 has developed a stronger neurological link with UA-566-A. It claims to have "worked out their differences" and "bonded over a shared love of eating." Note that UA-566-A has not been recorded to have any interest in anything other than the consumption of raw meat.
*Addendum 566-2:* UA-566 has gained an enhanced level of agility with their limb, being able to squeeze its tendrils into extremely tight spaces without sacrificing manual dexterity. It is now capable of opening doors from the inside of its containment unit. Ensure that security doors are water-tight in order to prevent a security breach.

Left Hand of Darkness
Need a hand?
An amorphous limb and hand made of oddly pulsing shadow that is normally concealed by the chef's clothes. When in use, it streams out between shirt buttons, her collar, or whatever other space is available.
Pen's research has led her to an occult book of rituals regarding spirits and related metaphysics. One of the rituals she uncovered allowed her to bind shards of various broken spirits into a hand of darkness that comes out of her body and follows her needs. This is the beginning of her transformation.

Roman the ghost arm
"No don't eat that, bad hand."
After losing his hand his arm had amputated because of infection, then a ghost named Roman, of which had died far over two centuries ago, formed a new one.
His arm became incredibly pale, and the fingernails become long, hard and incredibly sharp. And can talk by forming a mouth on his palm or back of his hand. He can hide this feature in his transformation, but it can still appear.
