Beliefs[]
Members of this group believe Eugene P. Hardin is a divine diety who will lead them to the High Lord's Realm of Salmoning (not to be confused with the Realm of Salmoning, which pertains to all actions described in the Book of the Golden Orb). Members of this court are obsessed with all things in the Realm of Salmoning, practicing them everyday. After successfuly performing a Salmon, they must perform the Victory Ritual. If not performed correctly, or not done at all, they will be subject to the judgement of the High Council of the Golden Orb. Punishment could be as little as nothing, or as severe as the Pit of Judgement. If members of this cult follow the Rules of Salmoning, they belive they will be delivered to the High Lord's Realm of Salmoning. If you are a non-member of the Court, you may do anything within the Realm of Salmoning. However you must follow the Rules of Salmoning (non-member standards).
