A Sur\/\/i\/\/or's Treatise on Clo\/\/\/\/n Cultists Penned by the Orphaner Dualscar, Recently Re\/\/i\/\/ed, and peer re\/\/ie\/\/\/\/ed by The Grand Highblood. Listen \/\/\/\/ell, ye \/\/\/\/helps. Ye d'not just e\/\/er stumble 'pon Clo\/\/\/\/n Cultists. Y're noticed by'them first. De\/\/otees o' th' Mirthful Messiahs an' fairly dangerous despite their open buffoonery. Per th'request o' th'Grand Highblood, I \/\/\/\/ould like t'make a disclaimer that not all o'th'follo\/\/\/\/ers b'imbibin' on narcotics. Though, I stress y'should smell fer it. Like a rabid barkbeast. 1. Identifiers b'listed as such: Purple Blood, or similarly High Blood. Face Paint Resemblin' Cracked Mirth Masks o' Old. Speech Patterns oscillatin' bet\/\/\/\/een \/\/acant, serene, an' zealous. Often th'stench o' Sopor or other Religious Mediums. If y'are greeted as Brother, 'Motherfucker', or \/\/\/\/orse, just laughin' then ye'\/\/e already gotten int' their strikin' distance. 2. Understandin' th'Religion. Clo\/\/\/\/n Cultists belie\/\/e in the Sacred Mirth: \/\/iolence is Comedy. Yer death is a punchline in their sick joke. Di\/\/ine Subjugation texts demand ALL must kneel t'their Miracles \/\/\/\/it' the Empress as the exception per their treaty. The Mirthful Messiahs themsel\/\/es. Some think th'be Cherubs, some Horrorterrors. Some T\/\/\/\/in, Some Many. D'not challenge this if y'\/\/alue yer pan bein' in yer cranium. 3. Immediate Response Protocol \/\/\/\/hen Encounterin' th'clo\/\/\/\/ns, here's \/\/\/\/hatchye must d'. Do not engage in dialogue. They'll con\/\/ert y', confuse ye, or e'en pro\/\/oke y' t'get ye t'death. Assess their Blood Color an' Status. Cull Lo\/\/\/\/blood Cultists, run from the Highblood Leaders. Creatin' Distance is important fer they prefer impro\/\/ised blunt \/\/\/\/eapons. Th'b'unpredictable an' quick. D'not Prolong any combat! If y'can cull'm, do'it. D'not enjoy it. D'not toy \/\/\/\/it'em. Because they are doin' th'same. 4. List O' Not T'Dos! D'not Laugh \/\/\/\/ITH them. That is submission. D'not CONSUME SOPOR. It leads y't'them. D'not UNDERESTIMATE THEM. It'll in\/\/ite y't'yer cullin'. D'not attempt QUADRANTS \/\/\/\/IT'EM. Their effection is mutilation alongisde de\/\/otion. 5. Highblood Authority. Under th'empire, Subjugglators are instruments of terror. The Empress does not control them, only aims them. No pleas or po\/\/\/\/ers from anyone but yerself can help y'\/\/\/\/it' them. 6. My Personal Account as a \/\/\/\/arnin'. In m'time, I'\/\/e crossed blade'n'pistol'n'cannons \/\/\/\/it' pirates, rebels, creatures older than th'sea itself. I \/\/\/\/ould sooner face Marquise Spinneret Mindfang at her most deceitful than endure prolonged proximity to a single Clo\/\/\/\/n Cultist. Mindfang may lie, stab, and cheat, but y'may li\/\/e. Any o' them Clo\/\/\/\/n's'll Cull ye. 7. The Final Doctrine o' Sur\/\/i\/\/al. Remember: Clo\/\/\/\/n Cultists ain't Allies, they ain't Ri\/\/als, they ain't e\/\/en proper Enemies. They are an infectious storm of force. D'not negotiate \/\/\/\/it' th'Infection. Car\/\/e it Out. Closin' \/\/\/\/ords from yer fa\/\/orite Orphaner. I \/\/\/\/as forged to cull lusii, maintain a bit o' order, an' ser\/\/e a throne that no longer exists. If any fragment of Alternia still lingers \/\/\/\/ithin' ye. Any instinct fer sur\/\/i\/\/al, hierarchy, or dominance, heed m'\/\/\/\/arnin'. \/\/\/\/hen th'laughter begins, y'\/\/e already \/\/\/\/aited t'long.
