Wildwood Club

"An occult society dedicated to chaos, and the unexpected Hours."

- Card text

The  is the -aligned cult, dedicated to chaos, yearning, and the unexpected Hours. Its founders can promote the followers of the aspect to its tenth rank (Skintwister).

Strategy
The  is a unique, flavorful cult with solid progression. -lore is exceedingly common in the early game- notably, The Viennese Conundra yields An Ecdysiast's Parable, the sixth-order lore, and can be bought from Morland's Shop- making it easy to promote your cultists and get started on expeditions early. The  lends especially well to Change ascensions, but also has a certain strength in Enlightenment and Sensation.

Hoodwink
The followers' Cult Business is Hoodwink, which, if successful, provides you with 1 Funds, a Notoriety card, and two random other treasures, the full list of which is contained below:

With one of your -cultists exalted to a Skintwister, the success rate for Hoodwinking is 90%. It's a good way of raising emergency funds, but the Notoriety acquisition builds up too quickly to be relied upon as income. It may be possible to balance this by using your Skintwister to destroy evidence before it can build up, however a Skintwister is just as good at destroying evidence as your major summon.

Other Strengths
's major summon is the Raw Prophet, which serves well for destroying evidence if you don't want to risk your cultists.

Strong cultists are useful in removing Annoyances.

The usefulness of on expeditions vary greatly, but it can be used to dupe the ubiquitous Watchers obstacle. Additionally, the Peril-Prowled Forest, Soucouyants, Long, and The Worms in the World can be defeated with. Besides the Watchers, none of these are very common.

Victory
The  is a good choice for Desire: Change victories if you pursue the path of the Moth, and its evidence-destroying ability can keep the Hunters at bay when you need corpses for the Sensation and Enlightenment victories. It remains a solid choice regardless of what type of victory you are pursuing.
