The Web(Type: Religion) Quote: "Hunger is felt by a slave and hunger is felt by a King." Cryptocurrency: Online-Gold-Value (OGV, based on the Gold commodity) Conspiracy Theory of Today: It has been rumored that a shadowy "Nightmare" group exists on the global stage, infiltrating business, governments and religions by using DreamNet technology. These dream infiltrators cause the so-called "Nightmare Zones" which occur in many cities using deplorable technology to cause near constant nightmares during REM sleep and may often contain subliminal messages to brainwash citizens into buying products. Rumors about the leadership seem to tie to Sakawa black magic cults from Africa and a recruiting program from the CIA that backfired. The truth seems to have been lost to speculation and terror. But one thing is for sure, the nightmares of the Web are spreading. Description: Deriving its name from the Dream Web woven by Anansi, the African spider god. This group was created after the C.I.A., desperate in their war against the Spiral and the FAA, sought to create "Nightmare Agents" to counter the Spiral's growing intelligence network. They brought the DreamNet technology to several African "Witch Doctors" of note in Ghana and in other countries of Africa. The design was to create agents who would promote Democratic Capitalist ideals in line with the American government. The result was that the C.I.A. quickly lost the reigns of control as their agents were corrupted by the sorcerors using DreamNet technology to overpower and enslave the minds of others. Now the group is mostly in it for the cash, scamming others using subliminal neural advertisements and fear tactics. They still hold a grudge against the Spiral on ideological reasons, so perhaps the C.I.A. was partially successful. The two groups destroy each other when they can. The Web operates in a rather pyramidal power structure, with successful scam artists and dreamweavers near the top just below the leadership of the "Spider People" a group of African tribal sorcerors with whispered rumors of supernatural power (though in reality these seemingly uncanny abilities accompany their augmentations and use of DreamNet devices). The average member of The Web, is a lowly scam-artist with high ambitions and a bit of tech savvy. Basic Resources (Religion)1. Dupes - You gain access to a number of deceived and oblivious believers equal to your Faction rank, who are under your sway. They are generally lightly armed or augmented. 2. Subliminal Adverts – Hackers in the employ of the Web can seed a Net Hot Spot or region (no more than a city block) with pop-ups and strange advertisements, gain a bonus to Deception or Intimidate skill checks equal to your Faction rank towards anyone who has seen these advertisements. 3.

Advanced Resources (Religion)1. Dirt - This resource can be used to gather dirt or blackmail on a subject, or if none exists, to fabricate it. The information gathered can hurt their reputation and impart a number of points of Infamy equal to your Faction rank to the target - if made public. 2.
