Patron Family

“Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.”

Faith has been a complex topic in the settlement of Requiem- where preaching is outlawed, somehow religiosity still flourishes. Yet still, there lie issues with problematic faithful. That is where the Anderson-Ambrosios Family steps in. Rising from the ashes of the Jones Secularity to right the wrongs the Jones did, the Anderson-Ambrosios Family seeks to find balance between religiosity and overzealousness. The shepherds of the faithful and a way station for lowly travelers, the hospitable strains of the Anderson-Ambrosios Family offer blessings, meals, and guidance along the journey.

Specialty

Faith - Both maintaining the peace of uprising and problematic cults, and the guidance of those who seek a more pious life.

Key Individuals

St. Hermes Ambrosios, MD - Quiet Folk Pathfinder of the Sainthood of Ashes and Father of the Anderson-Ambrosios Family, St. Hermes guides individuals through the forest of life; both to the brightest clearings, or to the darkest corners.

Randy Anderson - Merican Mother of the Nuclear Family, Randy is the leader of combat and battlements of the Anderson-Ambrosios. Second only to St. Hermes, Randy’s hootin’ and hollerin’ attitude inspires freedom and rally in nearly every ally of Requiem.

Organization

The Anderson-Ambrosios Family has a relatively simple hierarchy, similar to a traditional Family. There are a couple of moments a year when a strain may increase rank , or they may be appointed to the next rank through a showing of exceptional work and dedication.

Basic Society Membership - “Stars of Liberty” These members are welcomed into the Family as those who have sworn to uphold tenets of their faiths, or defend the faithful where they dwell.

Proficient Society Membership - “Stripes of Justice.” More devoted members of the Anderson-Ambrosios, and those who have proven their loyalty and dedication to Requiem. They stand up to faithful injustices, or have shown their competency in their preferred field of work.

Master Society Membership - “The Bearers of the Banner.” Highest members of the Family, the Bearers are figureheads of their faiths in Requiem, and/or are some of the most loyal and trusted members of the Family. They exhibit exemplary bravery, and can be relied upon when matters of faith must be balanced upon a blade.

History

The Anderson-Ambrosios Family was created by four strains, originally as a sort of miniature Nuclear Family. Randy Anderson, Merican Ba’Das and Lumberjack, was adopted into the Nuclear Family. With his partner, St. Hermes Ambrosios, MD, a Quiet Folk Doctor and Sainthood from Requiem, they adopted two children- Arlo, a Remnant-now-Unstable Arsonist and Pyrokinetic Final Knight, and Arabella, a Remnant-now-Accensorite Priestess of the Tribes of Seasons. These four created the Anderson-Ambrosios Family, a group centered on the beauty of the difference of Faith. Every member of the Family was of a different faith, and could share their different (or perhaps, rather similar) views on the world through their faiths with one another.
