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).

The Surgical Knives
A dozen various knives, without a speck of blood remaining. They are ready to be used, yet wish they did not have to be.
Florere will set down the bag, and lay it open on the ground next to however they are treating. After giving a quick examination of the tools, they will quickly begin treatment, making incisions, sewing cuts, extracting foreign objects, and treating burns.
As they are doing so, they will not be able to respond to any outside stimuli, too focused on their work, as a sickly dark green light begins to flow from the bag into the patient.
Wounds not actively being treated will begin to close and recede, Florere only needs to focus on the largest injury.
Eventually, the light will subside, and the patient will be stabilized in a few short minutes, healing process greatly reduced. However, underneath any bandages, there will still be glimmers of light, until the bag is full closed and put away, after which the light will swiftly fade.

- Surgeon Extraordinaire: You may perform any mundane surgery in at most 5 minutes without inflicting or worsening an Injury, and recovery time is reduced to an hour.

Outcomes less than 4 have the normal effect for Makeshift Stabilizations.

Preserve What Was
During any sort of medical care or surgery, a very minor aura is exerted on the effected area. It prevents any outside influence on the targeted area aside from the actions of the surgeon. This preservation continues after the surgery on separated parts until it is 'used' in some way.
Bev Good can never become fully 'human' again. This was not her choice. Sometimes, change must happen. She wishes though, that she could have preserved what once was. That if nothing else -- the option was on the table. That aside, preservation is important for further study of the human body. Not needing to worry about protections allows for much more in-depth analysis of "living" material.

- Sterile: Sanitary conditions no longer matter during medical care. Your patients will never suffer an infection or toxic shock during treatment, even if you are performing surgery in a sewer. You may preserve harvested body parts indefinitely.

Field Medicine
"If you can take a bullet, you can handle a few stitches."
Most severe injuries occur far from a facility that could treat them, and in the fetid muck of the battlefield even minor wounds may be a death sentence. Luckily the soldier is well-trained in the use of their standard-issue medical kit. They may stabilize even the most severe injuries with a little gauze and some no-anesthetic stitching. Furthermore, the treated wounds of their comrades never get infected.
You gain the following benefits at all times. You must actively and obviously be using a standard issue military medical kit to gain the benefits of this Effect.
