The Golden Order of Damascus (1) is an esoteric mystery cult centered on ancient knowledge and ritual symbolism. Its history allegedly encompasses many of the Near- and Middle-East cults revolving around mysticism and the occult. Long thought to be extinct a recent resurgence has been attributed to several documents and tomes regarding the groups practices and rituals. Supposed beliefs revolve around the reverence of an Animal Prophet named Sdrater.
Worship of this creature is purported to induce states of lucidity and arcane enlightenment. Only the Priests, or Sdiputs, of the higher levels my directly confer with their Deity according to recently unearthed texts and cryptographic information. Several numismatic images (2) depict an Order Priest sacrificing what appears to be a child to a snake like entity. Newly initiated members, or Snoroms, are first indoctrinated through the alleged use of hallucinogens and ritualistic behavior. After enduring the first six levels of the Order they may obtain further knowledge by continually progressing until reaching the highest possible level of enlightenment, or the rank of Eminent Sdiputs. This position, exalted throught the Order, was reserved for the those who were able to obtain the largest amount of esoteric knowledge regarding the Orders spiritual icon. Many believe that these Eminents are able to control others actions with only thought or arcane hand gestures. It is further alleged that they furiously guard this knowledge and that initiates know nothing of the powers that these high ranking members wield.
At this time little is know as to world wide membership but it is felt that the Orders base is growing. Experts feel (3) that this group has the capability and determination to exert their influence as no other secret society before them has done.
