	A Bahamatuan's cult tends to look kinda like the movementarians from the ~~simpsons~~. Don't think, don't do anything, just conform and be provided for. From the Strain of Sloth's perspective they're constantly surrounded with whiny needy babies. On the plus side, they're relatively unlikely to be creating problems compared to other strains.

			=== Lahmasu Strains ===

			Leviathan started as a simple idea: "White Wolf has done all the classic monsters, except the creature from the Black Lagoon". That idea didn't last long, and when I started writing it was my intent to bring the Black Lagoon back. The Lahmasu seemed like the natural place. Each are based on a different stereotypy ranging from sea monsters, to horror films:

			Gugal - Are quite simply Lovecraft's deep ones. Their unique tendency to actually have genetically stable populations makes it possible for them to actually have a functional and lasting undersea city. (Leviathan controlled or fearcly independent)

			Abuu - Born cultists who see their mutations as proof of divine favour and their natural role as priests.

			Mahhu - A horror classic, the creepy person who knows stuff. The swamp witch or delpadated gas station owner for example.

			Heqen - The knowledge to the Mahhu's wisdom. Strange tribes in touch with nature, the supernatural and the astral realm.

			Pelopsids - Pelopsids are mermaids (tails are optional, but not rare). Ranging from pretty love interests to vicious predators who feed on humans. They can often use siren songs too.

			Gibborim - The creature from the black lagoon itself. Vicious claws, vicious instincts, and often a predator's cunning.

			Hemitheos - The Tribe are gods (well technically 1/3 gods), so their children are demigods (well 1/6 gods). Hemitheos take this literally, they're a demigod in the greek sense, like Hercules.

			Think of these as exadurations; the strain taken to it's logical conclusion. Most Leviathans will see the below as what they will become if they don't try and become something better. Not all Tanninim are moral extremists, but they do have a pathological need for stability that, if they aren't careful, could easily manifest as a huge list of rules they force everyone around them to follow. You eat pork, you get eaten.

			The cults though, the Beloved normally do end up like the cults below, forced into that shape by The Wake. The mismatch between the religion the cultists think they're in and the religion the Leviathan wants is just another of the Tribe's curses.

	Firstly Prometheans are immune to the Wake, as are Leviathan's immune to Disquiet. The Created's Azoth burns away the touch of Primordial Water while the Leviathan's connection to Primordial Water smothers the touch of Pyros. Neither sensation is comfortable: The Promethian feels as though her Azoth is being extinguished and the Leviathan feels a burning from the direction of the Promethian. There is no actual risk but prolonged exposure may cause Torment and Outbursts respectively.		Firstly Prometheans are immune to the Wake, as are Leviathan's immune to Disquiet.

			Spending Ichor and Pyros while physically near to eachother causes the two to react horribly. While not technically a firestorm the rules for Pandora's book can be used. Try to mix up both fire and water as well as plenty of mutation.
