Around the dawn of A. D., the Romans launched an all out attack on the Barbarian tribes of Germany. Leading the Romans was a Germanicus Ceasar, a ruthless warrior who would do anything to break his enemy, even going as far as making a bargain with the devil. By sacrificing the soul of his strongest enemy to The Boogy Man, he gained strength.

Even after Germanicus died, his followers sought that same power and often provided sacrifices in a ritualistic manner. The more innocent the victim, the stronger the bond between The Boogy Man and the disciple of Germanicus. They did not care who their victim may be or what happens to them, and with every generation, the numbers grew. Fortunately, both during the Inquisition in the 13th Century and the Witchcraft Trials in Europe and America kept the numbers of the followers down. It also ensured that the Followers of Germanicus would remain in hiding from then on.

In modern day, the Followers of Germanicus are still alive and well. It is reported that there are 13 texts detailing the history and ritual steps that are considered the bible of the Followers. While most of the followers are penny-ante would-be serial killers, few have had the opportunity to exploit the opportunity to gather and harness the power received from the ceremonial sacrifices. However, those few who have are both very careful and clever in covering up their murders. These are some of the most dangerous people in the world, for they could be anyone.
