Cult of Leather

The Cult of Leather are the extremist group of the Crossed Swords. They have a strict set of rules and a harsh initiation method. They were first created as a security group for the parties the original members of the Crossed Swords threw , however when one of them began to fear not ever being accepted without violent action he began to reshape the group as his private militia set on forcing the world to accept homosexuality. As a result of this fear and paranoia the Cult introduced an extreme set of rules of conduct and an even harder initiation to ensure all members where fully committed to the cause. After the open acceptance of the King the Cult began to be poorly seen by the rest of the Crossed Swords and was quickly pushed to act incognito and underground. Nowadays the Cult of Leather is a very small almost splinter group of the Crossed Swords, having a different set of rules and ways of operating, and are barely known outside of the inner circles. Despite this the Crossed Swords leaders chooses to keep financing them and give them nurture, for they found the Cult are capable of all when given the right motivation, and as such they are often used as a violent last resort to carry a message or get needed information. The ways in which they obtain such the leaders of the Crossed Swords prefer to not know yet they are aware that all is on the table for the Cult of Leather.
