And when Ron and I broke up an entire cult without killing or even seriously harming a single person. I admit I kicked a guard in the nuts with enthusiasm...so what.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone been tracking cult activity?

I'm curioius to know if there's been a noticed upwards spike in activity.

While your information has been somewhat helpful, you are just one person reporting on what appears to be one cult.

If requesting more information from a wider audience causes you to throw up your arms in disgust and quit, then perhaps that is for the best. In any case, I am interested in information, not theatrics.

This response is clearly more theatrics. I did not comment on the value of your previous information. If you get irritated when people ask for information, that is your problem. You have chosen to get irritated and over react to the comment.

Such behavior is not helpful.

Holister wrote:Oh, your one of those. Got it.

If by "those" you mean a rational, thinking individual, then yes.

Now, do you have some information to add or would you rather continue to derail your own thread with attempts at casting aspirations and further theatrics?

I feel like that old TV police officer.

"Just the facts, ma'am."

Still, thank you for finally contributing something more useful than emotional outbursts.

You mentioned devil worshippers. Do you have more specifics along that route? And demonic connections would also be appreciated.

It would be that 2% that I'm highly interested in.

I've noticed they're not terribly accomodating about putting up websites and blogs on their activities on the internet.

So you're saying these guys are getting substantial financial backing? I met be able to set up some programs to do some tracking for me.

Hmmm.

Vampires have occasionally proven to be wild cards in these situations. Cults dedicated to them could do likewise.

Ah, and Mr. Holister, I do beleive it. Is there a specific city or cities I should pay attention to?

Cybermancer, the 2% you claim to be after - the elite with real knowledge.

You can trace them through the very knowledge that makes them dangerous.

Old books containing lost secrets are out there. They are also incredibly rare, to the point of being something that should be easily tracked.

Old artifacts bearing real magics likewise exist, and are likewise rare.

Magic is not as reliable as it once was, you know the dates and times of alignment, seek out the (un)holy places they need to perform their powerfull workings.


Sellers and collectors of rare and antique books, Sellers and collectors of artifacts from lost civilizations - even if they do not understand the nature of the "treasures" they deal in and collect, they are normally quite well versed in the history and whereabouts of the items they have collected, as well as those items they wish to add to their collections.

Miami seems like the best place for me to begin as that's where I am currently located.

Thank you for the information. You've been most helpful.

Shang Li,

Some helpful advice there. I shall heed it.

My god-father spent time as an archaeologist. He got quite a private collection of artifacts during that time. I may be able to tap him for assistance.

Although I'm not looking to deal with anyone, on or off the record at this point of time. At this stage it is merely an information hunting operation. Too many times I've seen big fish get away because people got occupied with the small fish.

If I dig anything of note up, I'll relate it here.
