The Start Of Something Special
I talked to Mr. Martinet about everything that went down during the job. He seemed pretty suspicious of the nature of these jobs and employers-- seems too good to be true and all that jazz-- but you can't argue with the results!
It seems like my connection with the suit's grown stronger since the job was finished, like that agent guy promised. I'm sure that if I keep going on these jobs, I'm bound to unlock more of its powers and save even more people!
With that being the case, I think it's finally time for some street level superheroism! College can wait another year, right? I'll need to work on my reputation so that I can help people more easily though-- the Paragon's still got a bad name after everything that went down. It might take some time, but my winning personality and strength of character should be more than enough to earn the public's favor back and show the world that the Paragon is a true hero!

Some-Thing’s Wrong…

Do-Goodery
I finally decided to go out in Sacramento as the Paragon to help people out! It's been baby steps for the most part, but it's still good progress.
Sacramento isn't exactly a place riddled with crime or anything like that, so I wasn't too worried about needing to stop any villains or bank robberies or anything similar. It's pretty much just been basic street level stuff-- giving people directions, helping the elderly cross the street, rescuing cats from trees, etc.
At some point, I ran into a couple of middle-aged folks rushing out of a Walmart with stolen goods. They didn't seem to be terrible people or anything, nor did they hurt anyone on their way out. They were a little scared of me, but I talked them down and convinced them to return their items to the store.
I also did some volunteer work behind the scenes at one of our shelters, so all in all, I think I've managed to win over a good amount of public favor! Nothing's been quite big enough to hit mainstream news, but its been enough to where I can walk around in the community without too much issue now.
Hopefully, it'll all add up to be enough to show people that all I want is to help people out as a new iteration of the Paragon!
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).
