Every single generation of the Strach's has lived in isolation from the rest of society. Which means, they basically lived in a bubble with their own set of laws, in some bizarre cult that workships Fear.

Calisto Besatt's report

The Strach Familly is a mysterious centuries-old organization that worshiped the "Mark of Fear". This generational behavior was driven by paranormal exposure to the symbol, an event that took place hundreds of years ago. Throughout the family's lineage, practices were led by the most feared member, with Abraham Strach being the most recently recognized figure.

After the event known as the "Rise of the Unhaunted", every member of the Strach Family experienced a vision, becoming more obsessed and delusional about the concept of the "Mark of Fear". Consequently, this led to the creation of various structures around the Strach Mansion.[1]

Characteristics[]

The Strach Family lived in isolation from society, where the environment was governed by their own rules in a kind of cult to Fear, led by the most feared member of the family. Over the years, they became more obsessed and delusional after an event they refer to as the "Rise of the Unhaunted".

Story[]

Past[]

The origin of the Strach family remains, yet, unknown. However, it is known that their generational isolationist behavior was driven by paranormal exposure to a symbol known as the "Mark of Fear", an event that took place hundreds of years ago in a location now known as the Perimeter.

The earliest known member is Thiana Strach, who, together with her companion, whose identity remains a mystery, had two sons, Abraham Strach and Yuri Strach, both having inherited their connection to the paranormal. During the family's development, Abraham, in his adolescence, displayed an unstable behavior, which often resulted in disagreements and conflicts with his brother, Yuri, creating an atmosphere of tension. Eventually, due to his manner of conduct, Abraham became the family's leader and entered into a relationship with Andrea Strach, fathering his first son, Goliath Strach. It was during this time that his actions as the Strach leader began, fully controlling the daily routines of other members, making them carry out seemingly illogical acts, even going so far as to remove Goliath's eyes and keep them in a jar.

Seeking to pursue the "Strach's purpose", Abraham hoped Goliath would become someone to be feared, but this did not happen; he became a disappointment in his father's eyes, nearly causing Abraham to lose hope until something occurred that reignited it. Abraham already could feel a terrifying presence when he looked into someone's eyes, something he described as the presence of the God of Fear staring back at him.

On a particular day, at 04:13:55 AM, the event known as the "Rise of the Unhaunted" occurred. At that moment, all Strach family members experienced a vision, becoming more obsessed and delusional about the "Mark of Fear". After the event, the creation of several structures around the Strach Mansion began.

Eventually, Abraham was stabbed to death while recording an audio tape about the construction of the Cathedral and the Unhaunted, right before the arrival of the Order in the Perimeter in the early 2000s.

Enigma of Fear[]

In late 2021, nearly 20 years after the investigations conducted by the Order, Verity returns to the Perimeter to confront his vision. The mansion now has an abandoned appearance, with doors and windows boarded up with wooden planks, surrounded by the corpses of Blood Zombies, with only a few still alive, and without any information regarding the whereabouts of the other family members.
