Just wondering, anyone ever have any characters in any groups like the Sons of Sauron, Humanis, Black lodge, or something interesting like that? other than organized crime? How 'bout a member on an insect spirit hive? or the IOND?
just wondering how often any of these groups are actually used in the game.
or even just a particularly interesting magical group, like one a mage of mine joined. You had to have some kind of para-critter as a pet. I had a hell hound I found as a pup (and then burned all my furniture). One poor guy had a devil rat. Very sad.

Anywho, what have you guys got/done? Do they ever come up in your games as anything other than opposition?

I've used the Black Lodge once, but no PC has ever wanted to be involved with one.

I used the New Jesuits once. A character I was GMing was a "former" New Jesuit (had "apparently" transfered to the Jesuits and settled down, but was really the NJs eyes and ears in Seattle). They were cool.

Currently, in our Las Vegas campaign, we have a conspiratorial initiatory group called the Showgirls (serving a Shadow free spirit at the moment. They are actively trying to "recruit" the Raccoon shaman in the team, which mostly involves beating her up in astral space at inopportune times), the Sons of Dan (radical Mormon Danite sect a la "Study in Scarlet"), and a couple of prominent gangs. Most of the conflict, though, centers around the Comanche Mafia and the Verontesse Mafia Family. Sadly, with the campaign set in 2058, we can't do much with the Universal Brotherhood/Bug City (since that's AFTER the CZ goes down). Most the factions in Ute nation are centered around an Anti-Anglo bias, which limits some of the options for policlubbers (although in Vegas, anything goes).

Some of us joined winternight once. Iwas playing a troll street sam, that ended up turning into a dzoo no qua. :-)

Oh, and one guy was in ORK. Other than that, no.

I'm afraid to ask. How does that work?? Both the "grope" part and the character background?
