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).

Heal Wound Gifts
Graveward Cross Marking
Reprieve from Death
The target's head must be mostly intact and facing upwards. Seraph sits on her knees and uses a blade to slit her right wrist and pour the blood into the mouth of the target. The skull of a goat sprouts from her head as she chants in tongues. At the end of this ritual, the targeted injury rapidly heals over a few seconds.
This gift's source is a magenta cross tattoo on Seraph's right arm. When this gift is activated, the tattoo glows with energy.
Take a Severity-1 Injury and spend 1 minute. Select a Living or Dead target within arm's reach. You cannot target yourself. This Effect cannot be used unless the target is dead.

If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.

Fairy Lights
"I'm not sure why, but the soothing aura reminds me of fairies."
Bluedo raises his hands (or some other part of his body if the hands are somewhat occupied) over the wounded target. As he does so, a light green and sparkling glow emanates from the extended part, slowly healing the wound.
When Bluedo approached the mystic for his latest gift, the mystic said that this particular magic was favored by members of his family prone to kindness. After he received the magic, he felt proud of those people.

Restitching
Of Blood and Flesh
Lilith pulls blood out of her eternal scars, pooling it into the target’s wound. With essence touched by the demi-god Cornelius Valentine, she is able to manifest some of his burgeoning holiness to stitch flesh back together.

NanoHealing
"The Bugs'll Fix Ya! Ya'in't Gonna Like It Though!"
Beneath the patient’s skin, the nanobots swarm like a legion of ravenous insects, their mandibles gnashing and grinding as they devour wounded tissue. Each tiny machine emits a high-pitched, metallic shriek that reverberates through the patient's bones. These microscopic invaders burrow deeper, their needle-like appendages injecting searing disinfectant chemicals into the bloodstream, igniting a fiery agony that pulses through every vein. The nanobots communicate in a cacophony of alien squeals and clicks, a nightmarish symphony that plays relentlessly inside the patient's skull. As their grotesque work nears completion, the nanobots begin to dissolve, their exoskeletons melting into a viscous, oily sludge. This foul liquid seeps from every pore, coating the patient in a greasy, nauseating film that reeks of decay. The patient left shivering and drenched, haunted by the invasive, mechanical horrors that had violated their body in the name of healing.
