@roykkrake asked: #43 - REGRESSION
The remaining planets in the solar system orbit a dead star. The Church of the White Dwarf (CWD) is a large religious movement that popped up a few hundered years after the collapse, worshipping the sun and harvesting the discarded space dust left behind from after it had imploded. They teach “Peace, Love, and Pursuit of Knowledge.”
CWD has often come under fire for their drug use - made of the very space dust they covet. With training, members are able to connect their minds with pre-collapse technology, interfacing in order to unlock, subdue, and destroy it. They see the dust as being sent by God to aid them in the quest of ridding the star system of infected tech, and consider themselves God’s chosen children. Studies have been done but not released, looking into the consequences such substances have in the long term. The church has also been in it’s fair share of controversies with various lawsuits from ex members, accusations of child abuse, and criminal charges after refusing medical care involving technology (notably, implants) to it’s members.
CWD has recently undergone a boom in popularity thanks to their current leader integrating music and TV into their quest to spread their message. Critics have only gotten louder, with many detractors accusing the church of being a cult.
