So recently I have been getting reports from some fellow members along with some freelancer friends of mine, of some odd things happening up here. Specifically a lot of two bit crooks and backyard witches getting ahold of some pretty powerful and pretty rare artifacts. It almost seems as if they are being supplied by something or someone. The more alarming thing is that I keep getting more and more of these reports from as far as Idaho and Oregon to Alaska. Anyone else run into this? Or is this just a isolated thing? Please respond if you know or have heard about anything else like this in the states.

Well in one instance we found some guy attracting and controlling entities with what my research would later identify as stones from the Old Jewish temple in Jerusalem dating back to when the Romans destroyed it in the early A.D.s.. We also found talismans ranging from authentic ancient African witchcraft talismans, to even some Russian and Chinese artifacts. Just a lot of really expensive and really exotic items that people who have never even been out of the country seem to be getting ahold of somehow.

I thought that two so I did some more digging. Turns out each of them was approached by someone saying that the represented someone "Very interested, in helping you in you endeavors.", and then each of them made large transactions shortly after. It seems connected, but what could someone want with these people? What could they gain?

We managed to track one of the men down to the port of Seattle but when my friends managed to get through his Brawler Joe goons, something happened. The next day I met with them for lunch to congratulate them but they could not remember the night before or the message they sent me, and all of their recordings were either scrubbed or replaced. When I went to the port to get the security tape from a contact of mine, he told me someone beat me to it. When I asked who came for the tape he just told me that they had connections and that he would rather not get involved. Lastly the police found a bunch of bodies in one of the buildings at the port many of them were guards and one was a blonde gentleman yet to be identified, all of them appear to be suicides. The guard I assume must have been possessed like the other victims while the blonde man appears to match the description of the perp who had been controlling the possessing entities.
