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).

Wild Hound’s Hunting
Colvin has started to physically change, taking on some of the senses of a wild Fae hunter
Colvin passively can differentiate scents to a greater degree than the average person, similar to the ability of a hunting hound.
To most, he just seems a little oddly perceptive. Those who really look into him though start to notice that he reacts to scents instinctively almost the same way a dog would, and with a similar level of ability in differentiation.
The Spear has begun to truly initiate Colvin into the physique of a hunter. While before it “graced” him with the Bite of Gwyn’s Hounds and a small slice of the Fae’s glamour magic, now it grants him the Hounds’ sensory ability.
