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).

Blackened blood
Fred's blood has taken on a tar like color and consistency, because of the constant flow of necrotic energy through it.

Velvet Whirl
Born of cruelty, spun into action
Mishandled and bruised by past owners, Rabbitson Cruso somehow awakened to a flickering conscience soft, insistent, and impossible to silence. Lost in shifting delusions of being buck, doe, or something nameless between, he dances through the world on paws that barely kiss the earth. Each twirl and sidestep feels less like instinct and more like a living daydream a fragile, frantic ballet that keeps the darkness at bay.
Once nothing but a trembling pet, Rabbitson Cruso was mishandled by cruel owners starved, kicked, and mocked until pain became his only certainty. Yet from that suffering, something impossible bloomed: a fragile conscience, born not from kindness but from the sharp clarity of fear and despair.
His mind splintered into shifting selves sometimes a proud buck plotting rebellion, other times a delicate doe grieving lost innocence or something stranger, nameless and free. Each imagined self lends him a dancer’s grace, paws gliding where no eye can follow.
Now, beneath the softness of his fur burns a quiet fury. He dreams of tearing down human kingdoms, ending the age of cages and cruelty so that no creature need bow its head to mankind again.
