Background

The Children are the embodiment of parent's paranoia at the dangers potentially facing their children. It has lurked in the city for years, but has become particularly strong in the era of the Internet and the school shooting. It was an early recruit of Liberal Anxiety and a natural fit for the New Haight brood.
