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).

Dream Grasp
Sage either stares intently at her target, or closes her eyes for a moment when targeting herself. Tiny trailing wisps come off the target for a moment, as it begins to move. They look like something between 3d shadow or unnaturally dense smoke, it's difficult to tell with how quickly they dissipate.
Years ago, I was staying with my rich grandmother for a while, and she revealed to me that she's more than she seems. Specifically, that she's an alchemist, among other things. I wanted to believe her but she knew I'd keep doubting until she proved it. So, she made me some special tea to enhance my dreams. In those dreams, I could move things, as if I could reach out beyond my reach. I could even focus really hard and lift myself off the ground.
When I woke up, I could still do it, and part of me feels like I've been dreaming ever since. Grandmother insisted that she didn't mean for it to have a lasting effect, but it did. People call it telekinesis, but it feels like the essence of my dreams is doing the lifting for me.
