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).

Bug
Just a little tracking chip
Nik slips a small tracking device onto the target. It resembles a cross between a beetle and a computer chip, and its are hard to detach once affixed.
Hardly anything magic about this one, really. GPS tracking devices are all the rage these days. This one's just a little bit smaller, and a little bit more capable.

Ancestral Overwatch
“Dads like to keep an eye on their loved ones, even after they’ve passed. I’d know. Dads talk”
David calls out in his mind to the spirits of the realms of the dead to keep an eye on their family members for him. From within that other world, the dead find their family members in this one, and mark them with their memory.
In our world, David closes his eyes to focus for a moment, and a new sandlike tattoo appears, ingrained into the skin of his target—a tattoo that looks exactly like the ancestral spirit guarding over them.
This tattoo is very small, and often pops up in an inconspicuous place, like under the target’s pinky toe.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a target within arm's reach.
Your target is marked with small visage of their latest diseased family ancestor as a sandlike tattoo. The mark can only be discovered with a deep medical inspection or Effect. Removal inflicts a Severity 1 Injury on the target.

Theoretical Praxis
"Entities in the Dreamlands have their distance measured in conceptual distance rather than euclidean."
Minerva focuses on a target and wiggles her nose some, looking at them in both the physical lands and the Dreamlands for a moment. In the Dreamlands, such focus can be dangerous. She leaves a small concept in them - one she holds herself. And thus, in the Dreamlands, the distance is always negligible.
And by finding the concept she has put in them, she can find the concepts around that, of course. And with that, she can find that which she embedded the concept in, no matter where it is.
Spend an Action. Select a target within 300 feet.
Your target is marked with a small shard of softly glowing pink crystal, burried deep in the target, near its core. The mark can only be discovered with a deep medical inspection or Effect. Removal inflicts a Severity 1 Injury on the target.
You are aware of the marked target's direction and distance from you. This lasts for an hour, or until either the mark is removed, or you choose to end the Effect. You can have up to 1 mark active.

You receive +2 dice to any rolls made against a marked target.
