Dust devils ride again Yahoo!
Cleatus may be a bad cop, but he isn't a bad man. He doesn't enjoy leaping to violence as a first response despite his hollering, and after asking to have some time with the Dust Devil in the events following his encounter with the nation's fiercest bikers he discovered that he had been.. changed. It seemed taking the right approach and having your heart in the right place seems to have its benefits. Now buoyed by the winds that run through his hair as he hits the highway like the riders of old. Cleatus drives like the bat out of hell he was born to be. Tailwinds and aerodynamics are now a never properly understood memory. Though he does still hear the nattering whispers of the wind spirits he's now become attuned to, and as a result, he's beginning to feel like there's more to being American than the red, white, and blue, and his passengers will hear similar nattering whispers. Like intrusive thoughts compelling them to remember what's important, and to not allow anyone to take what's dear to them without a fight. You have to protect it. You can't allow them to take it again. Wait.. again?

Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

I remember how to do this
