I'm just wondering why people keep researching and wondering which religion Bree is of. It's already been established that this is a fictional religion and organization that the Creators (and I'm sure the PM's will/have had a hand in) made up.

Shouldn't the focus be leaning towards what we already know? We know it has something to do with Crowley. We know it is Egyption in origin. Something to do with the Mayflower... Shouldn't we be speculating these things and piecing together what her religion may consist of? Maybe that's what the Creators want, they want US to have a part in forming her religion.

Just curious I guess if people didn't already know that it's been stating that this is a fictional religion made for the purpose of this story.

They're a group of rogue Freemasons who broke off from the main trunk sometime in the forties to form their own super-secret society influenced by Crowley and Egyptian magical traditions. Their original intention was to tap into their True Will.

However, by the fifties the groups began to split into the left-hand and right-hand paths. The left-handers found that they could steal the wills of others more easily than find their own. By the sixties, the left-handers had become the dominant faction.

Very recently, the Reformists seem to have emerged as a kind of last ditch effort to save the Order from itself. Their most recent tactic is revealing the Order's existance to the public. Thanks to the work of Thomas Immant and others, the left-handers no longer have the protection of extreme secrecy.

That's what this forum IS for. Each of the threads you see are based off of hints given and speculate on factors that may contribute to her religion. It's not looking for a specific religion, but rather the influences. Hope that clears it up.

I believe the Freemasons, themselves, are a split from a far older order called the Order of the Rosy Cross, or Rosicrucian Order.
