FLABERSONS, THE
DOMINION: Crass Consumerism
DIRECTIVE: ENTROPIC
CLASSIFICATION: Embodied/Manifested Spirit(s)
FACTION: The Howling
ASTROLOGICAL ASSOCIATION: Cancer
APPEARANCE: The Flabersons manifest as your typical atomic age American family, as processed by the magick of this fast food nation. Mom, Dad, and the two kids (Sally and Jimmy Jr.), when taken as a group, outweigh most Southern hemisphere villages. Dad is loosing his hair, Mom’s has gone silver and kept shoulder length. You can barely see older sister Sally’s eyes. Young James might just wind up a linebacker, if he doesn’t get his way and add pie to his Double Cheeseburger, Fries, and Milkshake lunch. Mom doesn’t want him to spoil dinner.
BACKGROUND: The Flabersons are the spiritual reflection of waste and consumption of America. The "family" are an amalgam of spirits in the service of the principles Sloth, Ignorance, and oddly, Famine. It is known that these creatures, animated bags of flesh really, are disposable minions of the greater powers of the modern day Wild Horde- such as the ubiquitous Mr. Beep, and his sometimes consort Pornxor Conquestina.
KNOWN ABILITIES: The Flabersons bodies may feast on fat, sugar, and processed wheat, but their true natures feast on despair. As embodied spirits they are saddled with the limitations of this plane. They cannot merely will someone to enter the "dark night of the soul," they have to drive them to it through actions. As devious bastards, the Flabersons have little problem doing this. And on top of it, few things are more annoying in nature than a family of loud, obese Americans fighting over who gets to play the Game Boy next and when and what they are going to have for desert. The world is their living room, and you’ve just been invited over for dinner.
MODUS OPERANDI: Dark Pop magicks brought the Flabersons into existence in the mid-50’s, and they have been haunting diners and fast food establishments across the U.S. ever since. Usually found invading a restaurant hot on the heels of despondent mysticks who serve GENERATIVE ends, the Flabersons are notorious for being loud and obnoxious. They can often be found playing with the latest technology of one of their patron spirits, or discussing the merits and flaws of competing products. They will, for example, sit at a table for minutes on end, systematically checking every ring tone on a cell phone and giggling at each one, just to drive a man insane.
RITUAL NOTES: While there’s really no reason anyone would want to call the Flabersons (unless, say, you were sic-ing them on unsuspecting enemies as houseguests) standard summoning rituals enhanced with the latest in TV entertainment technology and lots of fast food will do the trick in a pinch. The Flabersons are best fought on their own terms- loud, intelligent conversations about politics or acting plain crazy have been known to force them to flee the scene.

PIXIES, ATOMIC
DOMINION: High Speed Food Preparation
DIRECTIVE: GENERATIVE
CLASSIFICATION: Mechanical Animus
FACTION: None Known
ASTROLOGICAL ASSOCIATION: N/A
APPEARANCE: Atomic Pixies are invisible to the naked human eye. This has to do as much with the speed at which they live as anything else. Atomic Pixies are fast, so fast that they actually vibrate at frequencies out of phase with our conventional reality beyond the pale of what most spirits are capable of.
BACKGROUND: Intuitive Science has yet to reveal if the breed of Pixie classified as "Atomic" are simply mutated "normal" Pixies or in fact an entirely new bloodline created in the wake of the Einsteinian Revolution in physics. This is due in part to the Atomic Pixies status as an unverified phenomenon. Like certain aspects of quantum mechanics, Atomic Pixies are treated as if they are real because they must be in order to explain actual phenomenon. These creatures have managed to become the new hearth deities in many modern homes, worshiped under several troupe names including "General Electric" and "Black and Decker" to name two.
ASSUMED ABILITIES: The Pixies incredible speed is harnessed to create molecular reactions is foodstuffs. Also have the ability to cause small animals (Toy Poodles, etc.) to explode.
NOTES: Like many species related to the Faerie, Atomic Pixies are highly allergic to iron ore. Particularly sensitive, no metals of any kind should be brought into an area where Atomic Pixies have been summoned. Metal Elemental spirits may be the Pixies’ natural predator, as fires have been known to break out when these spirits are present in a location suspected of harboring the sprites. They appear to have an affinity for spicy ethnic foods that have been neglected in refrigeration units.
