    The all powerful Empire throughout history has been a powerhouse that has left and is still leaving their marks in the History Books. This can all be traced back to it beginning in the very late BC repelling the Roman Empire in both 55B.C and 54B.C. The tribes across the British Isles came together to for the “Ascension Throne Britannia” and was led by Alwin I. They repelled any attack from Julious Caesar. 
     
    During the Reign of Elizabeth I although unmarried she bore a son (although the father was unknown). Henry IX would ascend the throne after his mothers death and would begin the “The Golden Age of the Tudor Dynasty”.
     
    In  “Washington's Rebellion” the people in the American colonies tried to separate themself from their Brittanian rule. The revolution ultimately failed when Benjamin Franklin was bribed with the position of Duke of Brittania. The “Battle of Yorktown” led to a decisive Britannian victory and would assure control of the colonies. George Washington and his other men would never be able to recover.
     
    The Age of Revolution
     
    The Age of Revolution was a time where many European powers began to topple their monarch rulers. Henry X who was the Monarch of Britannia was able to retain control and have an absolute Monarchy. One of the most significant revolutions in Europe was the French Revolution which would allow for the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. Napoleon led a the battle as Trafalgar and the Win there allowed for Napoleon to move on to occupying London and carry on pushing through the British Isles. This led to the Monarch at the time Elizabeth III to retreat to Edinbrugh, where Rebels arrested her and made her abdicate the throne. This ended the Monarchy over the British Isles. The event is often referred to as the “Humiliation of Edinburgh”.
    Despite a defeat Elizabeth III and her loyalists fled the British Isles and headed to the colonies to establish a capital on the East Coast. Elizabeth III would die in 1813, Childless, she would nominate Ricardo Von Britannia to be her successor.
    A few years later after Napoleon had lost the Battle of Waterloo he would die on his way back to France by a suspected Poisoning. Some believe that this was the action from Elizabeth III loyalists who were just enacting her orders.

     
    After the events of Waterloo and the terrible defeat in their Home territory the nobility from the Britannian Empire was almost entirely gone. But this did not stop the nobility from creating an Absolutism for the Monarchy repeating that of which the Tudor Dynasty had created. The Holy Britannian empire now centred its attention to spreading across America. The nobility had never been at such a low point but this did not stop them from spreading across America to the west coast and then carrying their conquest around the rest of America. Survival for the Britannian empire was important and they dominated political spheres and took control of the rest of America. Each area was given a designation. With such power now Britannia had its status back as a world super power.
     
    Area 1- North America
    Area 2- Canada and Empress Elizabeth Islands
    Area 3- Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean
    Area 4- Greenland
    Area 5- Iceland
    Area 6- South America
    Area 7- Sandwich and Midway Islands
    Area 8 - Falkland Islands
    Area 9 - New Zealand
    Area 10 - Indochina 
    Area 11 - Japan 
    Area 12 - Philippines 
    Area 13 - Cambodia 
    Area 14 - Papua New Guinea 
    Area 15 - Southern Pacific Islands 
    Area 16 - Korean Peninsula 
    Area 17 - Indonesia 
    Area 18 - Middle East
    Area 19 - Taiwan 
    Area 20 - Mongolia 
    Area 21 - India 
    Area 22 - China 
    Area 23 - Pakistan 
    Area 24 - Afghanistan 
    Area 25 - Central Asia 

     
    Pure blood Britannians were those who descended the original nobility who had fled England and were the highest class in the Empire. Honorary Britannians were those who were middle class with the Empire. At the bottom were the Numbers who were the conquered people and would live segregated and treated subhuman. Numbers could apply to become Honorary Britannians but were still looked down upon by others.
     
    One key influential man who shaped the empire was the scientist and saint Charles Darwin who proposed the Theory of Evolution. This would later become the basis of Social Darwinism. The ideology quickly became popular across the Empire and was adopted almost as a national religion. They believe Social Darwinism had allowed them to survive after the defeat on the British Isles. They also use it as justification to keep oppressing the Numbers as it shows their superiority and that they are the rightful leaders.
     
    By the 20th century the Empire was one of three superpowers. The other 2 being Europia United and the Chinese Federation. The only country left was Japan which was the sole source of Sakuradite which was a key resource in developing military technology. So for a long time Japan would equally sell Sakuradite to the three empires. No Empire would dare try and invade it as it would mean having to fight against both other empires. 
     
    However, while Britannia was conquesting across the Indochinese Peninsula Japan allied itself with the EU and Chinese Federation to cut off Sakuradite supplies and blockade ports to force negotiations. This is now commonly referred to as the Oriental incident. 
     
    Brittania retaliated and was able to conquer Japan in only a month and renamed it Area 11 and its citizens to Elevens. By political manipulation they were able to stop either Empire from assisting Japan. The Empire distributed the Sakuradite fairly to the other Empires to keep the peace.
     
    Complete Japanese conquest was never needed as the Japanese armed forces surrendered after the suicide of prime minister Genbu Kururugi. This did mean that they weren’t completely hopeless. This is likely a reason Britannian forces would wipe out large portions of ghettos.

     
    The Empire has a structure as any traditional monarchy does.
     
    It is led by The Emperor who is above all. The current Emperor is Charles Zi Britannia, who may be named after Saint Chalres Darwin, is a key believer in Social Darwinism as it is believed he almost certainly killed to gain his position as Emperor. He adopts a similar position with his many children to see which one will seize power.
     
    The Prime Minister, usually appointed by the Emperor, is the second most powerful in the Empire and is in control of the Government.
     
    There are other bodies that have varying power but represent different people:
     
    House of Lord- Represents the Aristocratic population.
     
    Senate- Represents the common people.
     
    While not all powerful they still have power to warrant change in the Empire.
    The Viceroys- They control the different areas and are often part of the royal family or they are taken by other members of the Nobility.
     
    There are also the following ranks for those outside the Royal Family
    Grand Duke
    Duke 
    Marquess
    Earl 
    Viscount
    Baron

    Your SteamID:  STEAM_0:1:128962199
    Person's you report name: Joe Drakan

    Person's you report SteamID:  STEAM_0:0:212158705

    Why do you want him banned?: PME, FailRP, Lying to staff (specifically SMT), RDM x4? and powergaming to avoid roleplay.

    Evidence(It's a must. If not provided, request is denied.): This situation requires a heavy deal of context so bear with me. During the whole event saga with Rachel Fischer and Blackwood, when  it is close to the end, Drakan loses Commander Nemesis to a PK because he decides to go rogue as A-1 High Command, seen here:

     He then comes back as Commander Zeus.
     
    Drakan then gets into a situation where there is an ISD information leak and A-1 has to secure and rope off EZ Cells to deal with it. He has to kill an E-11 Commander in this process and his men accidentally kill a Nu-7 during this process. Should additional evidence be required to back this point up, I can later provide evidence from Benjamin Berg, who was the CO at that time. 
     
    Long story short, Nu-7 moves to arrest Commander Zeus peacefully and take him to EZ Cells on the authority of ECM Bernie Clancy. Drakan then proceeds to pull his gun out and gun down all of Nu-7 for no reason to resist arrest. I had to come onsite shortly after to clean this shit up. 
     
    To address the RDM part of this request, Drakan's defense at this time was that he knew Chaos Insurgency arsenal was Glock-18s (a questionable defense and potentially metagame) and that the Nu-7 in front of him were all holding these weapons, seen here:

    However, a video recorded by Berg himself contradicts this entirely: 
     
     
    There is only one Nu-7 found holding a gun and it is never pointed to Drakan, thus he is using metagame information in the first place to assume the Nu-7s are CI as his defense, then he proceeds to RDM them all in the process of resisting arrest when an ECM gave a valid order for his arrest.
     
    Onto the PME, FailRP and Powergaming section.
     
    After this, Commander Zeus is ordered to stand down and report for interrogation by Walter, who was O5-6:

    And he is informed by me as the acting ECM that he will be placed on Trial for the charges he faced. 
     
    Unfortunately, there is now an absence of evidence, because Drakan deleted all pictures of what he did specifically in A-1 #announcements, however I have multiple text logs along with context to explain:
     
    What Drakan did here is he asked me if his CMDR was going to be placed on Trial and found Guilty:
    To which I said it was most likely because he had evidence against him. What happened in A-1 announcements next is that he declared that Commander Zeus was in an armed A-1 convoy that had been attacked by Chaos Insurgency and it was thus impossible for us to bring him to Trial, seen by all of these screenshots:


    Drakan then proceeded to use A-1 #announcements to say that Commander Zeus had died in the attack on this convoy and thus it was impossible for us to stand Trial for him. Now, this happened the day after. I would like to make sure Norra sees this section, as he should be aware that I was on the server at midnight with Walter and Yokishi and I informed them that Drakan was saying ominous shit like this as if he was crafting a PME. The next day, I wake up to his name changed to Commander Drakan, cementing that he had avoided the Trial through an off-server roleplay event.
     
    This is where it gets fucky. I immediately complained to Drakan about this and asked how the hell he managed this, and he said that Xunt and Norra gave them permission. However, this is where the lying to staff part gets proven: 
    From what I understand, Drakan didn't tell anyone that Commander Zeus was being held pending Trial and it would be impossible for his bullshit armed convoy excuse to hold up, meaning that he managed to sneak this PK in unfairly. This is where I complained to Norra and Yokishi and forced him to revert to Commander Zeus, where he was then placed on RP Trial and executed  fairly because he decided to plead Guilty out of nowhere.
     
    In short, Drakan RDM'd possibly 4 Nu-7 in complete FailRP and RDM by resisting fair arrest and ECM's orders, lied to SMT to powergame his way out of the situation and abused his position as A-1 High Command to make a PME excuse to do so.
     
    The reason that this report is so late is because I learned today that Houston got banned for pretty much the exact same thing, whereas Drakan only received a slap on the wrist from what I know from Norra and Yokishi. As such, I believe this report is only fair.
     
    Cheers for reading.

    I believe the original vote made by the Delta managers will explain this well enough.

    What does this mean? Chaos Insurgency managers want less combatRP, and the majority of Deltas agree with this. I believe the current management is perfect right now.
    It hasn't even been a week with this change, if you're having issues "playing" Infiltrator, then I recommend changing your play style to something more passive.

    I personally feel like this has been a long time coming and should have been brought up earlier. I personally believe ERP should be banned and that should have never changed. After hearing about a certain "Henry" character for me it was the final straw. Xunt himself brought up a good point regarding this as well. "a server primarily played by children". Does ERP really have a place on a server like this? As far as I am concerned it contributes nothing to actual roleplay, leads to awkward and uncomfortable situations and degenerative actions. Like flirtation is one thing but is there really a necessity to take it further than that?

    Why do you feel you'll be a good Site Director?: Due to previous experience as all site admin roles, I think that I'll do alright as a Site Director, along with being able to maintain the integrity of the site. I have plenty of experience dealing with miscreants from previously playing jobs like ISD & B-1, so on the off chance that someone does something wrong, I'll make sure to correct it as soon as I can. I personally think of myself as reliable in terms of administrating everything that happens.
    What role does the Site Director have on the site?: In lore, the Site Director is in charge of making sure that everything runs smoothly, from the SCPs to the projects, reporting to the council on everything that happens within the site. This is similar to what the SD does on the server, ensuring that everything doesn't go to all hell within the site and checking in on the various departments inside the site to keep everything at a high standard. To department heads, the SD is their boss, reporting in every now & then to provide detail towards their department's current activities, who in turn will provide this information to the council, who will check if anything needs changing or fixing.
    What is the O5 Council?: The O5 council can be seen as the Site Director but to a global scale, this meaning that instead of focusing on a single site and what it contains, the council focuses on the Foundation as a whole, with also focusing on the outside of the Foundation. Explaining the council on the server, they oversee the current Site Director, making sure that if anything goes wrong, they assist them in whatever way they can, but occasionally demoting any incompetent site directors, but this rarely ever happens. They also oversee specific departments, such as ISD, Research, Medical & Security.

    Why do you deserve to be unbanned?: so uh, this is the second unban request i guess. So as you know i was banned for Causing drama specifically with John Synergy or Synergy as people call him. i was in a discord named GAT or Gamers Against Trolls (names ironic). Over the past 2 months or so ive realised where i was wrong, i looked back on what happened and i genuinely do regret it. now i know for sure there's about a 99% chance i wont get unbanned but i do wanna come back.
     
    i want to finish what i started with jobs like ISD and GOC. ISD being a job that i was offered management 2 times. i mean i could have gone out loud considering i was in the Nu-7 discord for like 10m. i could have pinged @everyone or just pinged the roles i could, but i didn't. i could have destroyed multiple ISD documents but i didn't. even after speaking to synergy he said himself he didn't blame me for what happened but that's fine. my recent behaviour on the forums hasn't really reflected my change to well and I've realised. i should have stayed quiet instead i lashed out trying to get a kick from the responses but after that i felt like i was in the wrong.
    now i don't wanna bore you with this because lets be honest my last unban request was long as fuck. i really want to change i miss the server as a whole and i made some good friends on the server, although i didn't get along with a few and my behaviour at times was unacceptable i just want another chance to thrive. 
    if SMT wanna speak to me over dm's or something just send me a message i guess

    Gritz reacted to Techno in [Job Suggestion] The Hunter's Black Lodge   
    The Hunter's Black Lodge

    GoI-0432 ("The Hunter's Black Lodge") is an anomalous criminal cult primarily active in the post-Soviet states. Known as "The Hunter's Black Lodge" (or simply the "Black Lodge"), GoI-0432 has been linked to extortion, murder, robbery, gambling, prostitution, human trafficking, drug trafficking, weapons trafficking, and underground fighting rings. While these activities are not inherently anomalous, the anomalous capabilities of GoI-0432 has had an aberrant effect on their practice.
    The Foundation first became aware of the Black Lodge in the early 1990s after receiving a tip from informants in INTERPOL. Further investigation uncovered GoI-0432 related documents from the recently dissolved GRU Division "P", later corroborated by former members. It appears that GRU Division "P" was unable to fully contain or neutralize the threat presented by the Black Lodge, with one source describing them as a "hydra" - the organization thought neutralized on several occasions only for it to reappear months later, "stronger than before".
    Victims of the Black Lodge have been discovered impaled, penetrated by large organic spines - the decedents commonly showing evidence of ritual cannibalism.

    Foundation Report
    Known as "The Hunter's Black Lodge" (or simply the "Black Lodge"), GoI-0432 has been linked to extortion, murder, robbery, gambling, prostitution, human trafficking, drug trafficking, weapons trafficking, and underground fighting rings. While these activities are not inherently anomalous, the anomalous capabilities of GoI-0432 has had an aberrant effect on their practice. These anomalies include:
    - The trafficking and distribution of anomalous pharmaceutical agents, primarily in the form of the anabolic-androgenic steroid "Гнев". The intravenous injection of Гнев triggers anomalous levels of muscle and bone growth. Continued and/or excessive use will result in Proteus-Cronenberg syndrome and/or death. Analysis suggests that this substance is harvested from the adrenal gland of an unidentified species of animal and has thus been classified as SCP-2408-2A.
    - The trafficking and distribution of "Похоть", a potent narcotic and increasingly prevalent "club drug". Normally sold in small, glass vials, it is administered to the body through insufflation into the sinus cavities (injection has been found to be universally fatal). Substance triggers various sensory hallucinations, increased heart palpitations, increased sexual arousal, and feelings of euphoria; studies have shown the substance to be more addictive than heroin. These effects are non-anomalous (the substance likely created with profit in mind) but the substance itself appears to be derived from the spinal fluid of an unidentified species and has thus been classified as SCP-2408-2B.
    - The trafficking and distribution of biological agents, including pathogens and toxins deemed anomalous by the Foundation. The creation and distribution of "Красная Смерть" represents an exceptionally high level threat. Already classified as SCP-███, information regarding the "Red Death" is presently only available on a need-to-know basis.
    - Victims of GoI-0432 have been discovered impaled by large organic spines or completely torn apart. Cadavers display injuries suggestive of attacks by several different animals such as bloody hoofprints, wounds consistent with goring by a horned or tusked animal, and teeth-marks indicative of a large, lupine organism.

    The Foundation became aware of GoI-0432 in wake of the USSR's dissolution, when many anomalies and documents relating to anomalies were transferred to Foundation control by GRU Division "P". The existence of GoI-0432 would be further corroborated by former members of GRU Division "P". It appears that they were unable to fully contain or neutralize the threat presented by GoI-0432 and its associated anomalies, with one source describing the apparent destruction of the organization on several occasions - only for it to reappear months later, seemingly strengthened.

    Agent S████ was not equipped with a recording device due to the delicate nature of the mission. Instead, information was transferred to the Foundation via dead drop. Agent S████ entered the nightclub at 2100, 01/25/1995, equipped with a SIG Sauer P226. He is observed being approached by a bouncer, which Agent S████ proceeds to follow after a short conversation. An agent inside the nightclub reports seeing S████ being escorted to an upstairs VIP suite overlooking the main floor. Agent S████ does not exit the nightclub until 0800, 01/29/1995. A message would later be delivered to the dead drop site at approximately 2100.

    First job was gunrunning. More damning evidence against Abraxas Arms. Not a lot to report beyond that.

    In a lot of ways, the Black Lodge is like any other Bratva. They're thugs, plain and simple, and mostly driven by greed. They're also nastier, which speaks volumes; you can't get much lower than the Bratva - they discarded any trace of honor they had left in Siberia.
    The Great Mothers are certainly something you don't see in the world of organized crime. The боевик call them hags, crones, witches, and the like (though not to their faces). The Sarkic influence is clear with them. Twelve in number, they refer to each other as "sisters" - priestesses or some such. All wear the same outfits - a black sarafan, a stained leather apron, and a red and white shawl covering the shoulders and hair. Always bare footed. A lot of ink work too. They aren't karcists but they still wield a great deal of clout over the Black Lodge.

    Missive 03/10/1995
    "Criminal underground" has a literal meaning for the Black Lodge. There's another world beneath Moscow. Abandoned soviet bunkers. The Metro-2. Forgotten crypts. But it runs so much deeper than we knew. There's something downright ancient below. Suffice it to say, I think Moscow was built atop a Sarkic temple.
    There's a dungeon. Rusted torture equipment. Pre-revolution. Maybe a relic of the Time of Troubles. Regardless, it looks like the Sarkicites are continuing the tradition. It's not nearly as deep and ancient as that wretched temple. Might be worth researching what buildings used to exist in the general location during the 17th century.

    I don't know much about these places yet. Information seems to be on a "need to know" basis. But I think I've found a weak link in their chain - one of the Great Mothers; let's call her "Five".

    Five shows signs of senility; she's gentle, friendly, and more importantly naive. I've been able to glean some fairly significant intelligence from her (but can't say how much truth there is to any of it).

    According to her, the Black Lodge is something both new and old. Like the other Bratva, it began in the gulags of Siberia - during Сучьи войны. Avgust Iosava, father of Otari, appears to have been responsible for the Black Lodge's resurrection in '51. Something he encountered in the Siberian wilderness after leading a successful prison break. And that's when the witches sought him out. Guided him. Showed him "what he had forgotten" - I asked what she meant by that but her mind wandered elsewhere.

    She seemed happy to have someone listen to her; a chance to feel nostalgic about the old ways. She told me to take this "secret" and handed me several old and frayed documents; scriptures but not the originals, notes she must have transcribed from their primary sources. Fragmented but something I think the researchers would like to see. Going to write this all down.

    Five also told me about Moscow's lost history. In another time, it was known by a different name - "Orok's Fall"; a Sarkic settlement - and where the Saint of War sacrificed himself, "for the blood of gods and tyrants". Never cared for this city. Guess there was always something sinister here.

    As she described the ancient city, her terminology was unusually anatomical in nature. Referring to different locations as the "heart", "lungs", and "skull" of Orok's Fall.

    I am making a special request to have my name, as well as what I've done (you'll know it soon enough), removed from the final report. If I successfully complete my mission and come out of this alive then I request the immediate application of amnestics.
    Most of my targets have been degenerates and criminals. Potential rivals and the like. But this was different. And Otari, that sick fuck, wanted us leave a different kind of message. There are other Sarkic cultists in Moscow; non-Black Lodge. I'm talking oligarchs. Government officials. One of them sent word that someone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, a man named ██████ █████████, wanted to crack down on the Black Lodge and was searching for allies among the few straight players left in this city.

    Target the family. A wife, a daughter. Don't kill them. Make an example. The sort of scars that'll never heal.

    Spoke with Five again, still trying to clear my head of what happened. She's not like the others and I'm beginning to question just how senile she really is. When she speaks of me, and her faith, there is a tone of regret.
    I asked her more about Sarkicism (don't worry, I didn't say the "S-word"). And, when she tells me about Ion, I feel like a child again - listening to my baboushka talk about Jesus and the old prophets. Whimsical, and like her, skipping over the parts that involve glorified torture and murder.

    I'm no researcher, historian or theologian or whatever. But I think these cults, this "Sarkicism" didn't begin this way (but I suppose that goes for most religions). Five talks about honor, friendship, virtue, and liberation. The gentle reindeer folk of Adi-um against the evil Daeva. She's old, but I take it the faith changed long before her; maybe she has begun to interpret the texts differently. Maybe she's wrong, seeing good under layers of madness and atrocity.

    I can relate. It's always the same. Another failed revolution. Regardless, I suspect Five is an aberration. Perhaps that is the reason she's confided in me. The others talk about the Great Mothers, say they can see things. At times I wonder if she knows who I really am.

    And then my training tells me to eliminate her. I think I'll ignore that training for now. Besides, no point taking out a source like her. Not yet at least.

    P.S. The arena. It isn't just for initiation. Blood sport disguised as ritual; or maybe ritual disguised as blood sport. Six enter; only one comes out. A lot of folks willing to pay to see and bet on it. Many wear the skulls of beast and the clean suits of billionaires. Five's not a fan; it's like listening to people complain about the commercialization of Christmas. I know the Black Lodge has been classified as Neo-Sarkic but the Great Mothers are pretty clearly Proto-Sarkic - they're traditional, celebrate the high holidays, and still think in terms of some greater good. The rest only care about how to make themselves stronger, wealthier, etc. Otari has an animal cunning to him but he is hardly an intellectual - nor does he appear to be a karcist (or at least, the term hasn't been thrown around at all).

     
    Missive 05/06/1995
    Five let me in on a little secret. Otari has a brother by the name of Mikhail. Same father; different mother. And he's that half-dead thing in the cell.
    Apparently Otari and Mikhail have somewhat of a rivalry, but that isn't why Mikhail's been imprisoned and defaced; Five was vehement about that. It seems that Mikhail volunteered for some sort of ritual.

    Things are getting pretty fucked up here. Not sure if it's the drugs or not. I'll leave a vial with this report. I'm seeing things. The angles in the club, and everything below, are wrong. The architecture gives me a headache if I stare at it too long. Yesterday I woke in a bathroom stall with a half-eaten woman.

    The whores at Red Lanterns - they look human one moment then the next, well, I know 'monster' isn't really appropriate in this line of work but not sure how else to describe them. They stare at me with feral, hungry eyes. Five once called the them Rusalki; I thought she was just being figurative but now I'm not so sure. They slither off into the backrooms with fresh meat tailing behind; they'll be back an hour later, looking satisfied - but the men that go in don't ever come out.

    And when I watch the pit fights. There are things in the audience that aren't entirely human. There are sounds I can't explain; like a heartbeat, sometimes roars - something from deep below, where all the blood and corpses go.

    Agent S████ was declared MIA on 05/28/1995.
    On 06/04/1995, after much deliberation, raids were conducted against multiple Black Lodge sites, including the Red Lanterns nightclub. During the assault, SCP-2408-1 were directly observed undergoing transfiguration. Despite their aggression and anomalously augmented combat prowess, the SCP-2408-1 threat was thoroughly neutralized through the use of incendiary armaments (with the Foundation unexpectedly suffering only minor casualties). As operations continued, it grew readily apparent that the Black Lodge had provided minimal manpower - a mere fraction of its total population in the region.

    Sarkicism is a religious/philosophical system that encompasses a variety of traditions, beliefs, and spiritual practices largely based on teachings attributed to “Grand Karcist Ion”, its deified founder. Adherents practice ritual cannibalism, human sacrifice, corporeal augmentation, thaumaturgy, and dimensional manipulation. Highly secretive, the general public appears to have no direct knowledge of their existence; the one exception being the CotBG, who views them in apocalyptic terms. Organic manipulation has allowed certain Sarkicites to achieve anomalous states of being, transcending the physical limitations of baseline humans. Disease is viewed with reverence and Sarkic shrines have been discovered with offerings of swollen lymph nodes and tumorous growths. Sarkic cults treat contagions as consecration, a means to "cull the weak" and purify the masses, and thus actively seek to ensure their spread.
    The Foundation divides known Sarkic cults into two distinct strands: Proto-Sarkic and Neo-Sarkic. Proto-Sarkic cults can be found in insular communities throughout Eurasia's most isolated regions, its followers generally poor (if self-reliant) and hostile towards outsiders. Such groups eschew modernity, display acute technophobia, and are bound by superstition and taboo. In contrast, Neo-Sarkic cults are cosmopolitan, publicly embracing modernity and showing no apparent qualms with technology; their public lives differing little from others of their culture and social status. Adherents are primarily affluent families, rich in history and scandal.

    Ultimately, it is believed that the Foundation only knows a fraction of what Sarkicism is and what its followers intend. Based on the available information, the speculated goals of Sarkic cults represent an SK-class dominance shift, including the possibility of an XK-class end-of-the-world scenario.

    The Old God
    Yaldabaoth (also known as "Važjuma", "God-Eater", "Devourer", "His/Her Undulating Vastness", "The Great Winnower", "The Womb of Chaos" and various other epithets) is regarded in Sarkicism as the principle power in the universe. Neo-Sarkites appear to admire this entity but Proto-Sarkites (and all discovered scripture thus far) describe it as the true enemy of all people. Translated fragments of the Valkzaron suggests that Ion had somehow usurped control of this cosmic entity, wearing the flesh of the Old God as a sort of armor and crafting from its body a kingdom. This is contradicted by recently discovered scripture which suggest that Ion merely cast down the "living gods" of the Daeva, weaker avatars of the Archons - the children/servants of Yaldabaoth. The continued mortality of humanity and the absence of "paradise" ultimately imply that, were Ion real, then he had failed to achieve his goals.
    As with all things related to Sarkicism, it is difficult to discern reality from myth - most especially when myth contradicts. Proto-Sarkites view this entity with fear and disgust, regarding it as both the creator and destroyer of all life and the progenitor of the gods. As more sects are discovered, the diversity of interpretation grows readily apparent.

    Yaldabaoth is portrayed as both destroyer and incidental creator, "feeding" upon gods, worlds, and stars, while "exhaling life" into the cosmos (which will evolve, grow, and eventually be harvested again). Life is thus a natural byproduct of the Old God's existence; unguided by intelligence and spreading through a process not entirely dissimilar from panspermia. Sarkites believe this entity has turned the multiverse into an altar with our existence, and the existence of all biological lifeforms, being brought into reality for the singular purpose of sacrifice.

    "Blind" and driven solely by instinct, Yaldabaoth is depicted as being accompanied by otherworldly entities known as "Archons" (or "Vultaas" among certain Proto-Sarkic cults). These beings are described by Sarkic texts as faceless manifestations of primordial chaos, their true forms inconceivable to the human mind. Gnostic and Mekhanite scripture would mention the Archons as well, describing them as "terrible and rapacious angels".

    Some Sarkic cults hold that the Archons, along with Yaldabaoth, do not originate from our universe, let alone the multiverse. These cults believe that these entities begin in the Void and that their colossal physical bodies are vessels for these profane spirits. Because their consciousness is tethered to the Void, they know only hunger and will consume all things in their desire to feel whole - spreading like a cancer across the multiverse. The Archons are frequently referenced as having some relationship to the stars and the growing darkness that exists between them but little else is known about this connection. Sarkic art and iconography typically depicts Archons as red or black and vaguely cephalopodic.

    Klavigar Orok

    A figure of reverence and supposed disciple of Ion. Associated with strength, war, violence, wilderness, hunting and, seemingly in contradiction, loyalty and revolt. Epithets include: the Horned Beast, the Brute Lord, and the Pale Hunter. Described as being of unnatural physical strength, Orok was the product of alchemical and thaumaturgical experimentation on slaves. Enthralled to Matriarch Aśvighoṣa, the ruling Daeva in the city of Jel, Orok served as a personal guard and pit-fighter.
    It is written that Ion, when taking the city of Jel, entered the palace of Matriarch Aśvighoṣa (presumably, the highest authority in the city). He requested that the matriarch should leave and take with her a message to the "Daeva of Daevas", lest she suffer retribution. Refusing his ultimatum, the matriarch ordered Orok to destroy him. It is written that Orok hesitated, his "runes of bondage [setting] his starved soul aflame so that his body became spirit"; turning to his matriarch, he struck Aśvighoṣa, his fist imbued with the very power she had forced upon him, and reduced her body to "cinder and ash and heavenly starlight".

    Orok is typically depicted as a large and muscular cyclopic man wearing a loincloth. His symbols include a two-headed axe, a one-eyed skull, a hunting spear, fractured bones, a closed fist, and a bull elephant.
