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).

Trussardis face shows a grimace for a second after being hit before shifting to an emotionless expression.
Angry managers, insane stalkers and other musicians always try to get the leg up on you. You can’t give them the satisfaction of letting them do it to you.

Endure
Keep moving, Kayleigh. Don't let them win.
While wearing the mask over her face, the Kitsune blocks out all internal distractions and focuses her attention to the task at hand.
As much as she wants to be strong enough to protect her friends, Kayleigh is weak. She's fragile and breaks easily if she's not at top form, the cracks going down to her very soul.
Her strength doesn't just have to come from inside, however. Once her soul has cracked, strength can suffuse her from a more otherworldly source.
