The Cult of Ustream is a prominent organized group of characters that exists within the Manaverse, specifically operating out of Ustream, Euthora. The group was founded by Jason Shaver, who stumbled across an abandoned Seotaran military outpost and opted to use it for his own purposes; to protect people who were in need of shelter. Increasingly, the group has grown and eventually has become intertwined with events that cross planetary boundaries, as well as extremely influential events that exist within Euthora. The Cult exists only within its titular canon, and does not exist in any other timeline.

The dragon and Shapeshifter are as close as family, if not closer, and either will protect the other with an almost bestial ferocity.
  • Pricilla Starkey: A talented scientist, as well as the Cult's medic. Pricilla, also known as Starr, often spends her time tending to each member's mishaps; big and small.

Divided Factions

The Shadow Drake Deathstorm was also part of this group, eventually leaving after Jason had freed him from Lord X-Giga-X's control. Ultimately, this group left the Cult during Lord X-Giga-X's defection.

Relationships

  • Careodry: The Cult's relationship with this enigmatic Voidwalker is a strange one; most of them have not met him, and those that have dislike him. However, due to events in his Void, which only Shadow fully remembers, Careodry has seemed to take an interest in the Diclonius. Shadow is able to contact Careodry at almost any time for help; so far, this has been limited to delivering items.
  • Organization G-X: As a result of growing tensions between the Cult and Lord X-Giga-X's faction, as well as actions and conflicting views from Jason Shaver and Lord X-Giga-X, the latter has defected from his post at the Cult, rendering him and his entourage a neutral-hostile threat to the Cult. Currently, there has been no further escalating action between the two factions.
  • The Sealbreakers: The Cult's interactions with this group have been limited, but invariably hostile; the group is intent on destroying the seals that the Cult works to protect, for an as of yet unknown purpose. Only three members are currently known to the cult, not counting a strange spatial anomaly that appeared at Cassiel's seal.
  • The Shadow Drakes: The Cult has historically been on good terms with Ustream's Shadow Drakes as a result of some members having come to their aid multiple times throughout its existence.
  • Station of Seotara: Though at first on hostile terms with the Cult, due to a scouting mission gone wrong and a resulting counterattack, the Station of Seotara has become an asset, if not an ally. Both the Cult and the Station are working to protect the seals scattered throughout Ustream, and the latter has even offered the former shelter during an incident in which Cult Headquarters was rendered unsafe to live in.

Location

The Cult of Ustream is primarily based and acts centrally out of their self-named Cult Headquarters, an abandoned Seotaran military outpost left in Ustream, Euthora. Though the original purpose of the building was to spy on military rivals in Durasken, it has since been repurposed to house the members of the Cult.
