PLANET MOTHERFUCKER'S MOST WANTED: JOEL TYPE-OSTEEN

Charismatic unholy-roller Joel Type-Osteen is the founder and pastor of Stakewood Church, aka The Oasis Of Blood.  He's handsome, effusive, sincere, and the farthest thing from "savage bloodsucker of the night" that you can imagine...which makes him infinitely more disturbing than your average dracula.

Type-Osteen's particular feel-good brand of god-bothering caters to those restless dead who seek salvation from their sanguinary natures...and it seems to work, as Stakewood parishoners are kinder, gentler, and far less homicidal than the norm.  Another thing:  his flock is utterly immune to the adverse effects of wooden weaponry.  Must have something to do with the church's freaky "stakehandling" rituals.

Many find Type-Osteen inspiring; others think he's got schemes (above and beyond the typical sins of televangelistic excess) that'll shake Planet Motherfucker to its core.  I mean, just look at the dude—prettyboy is clearly hiding something.  And the Satanists are just dying to bring Type-Osteen down.  Could mean serious bank for enterprising PCs, and a surefire way to get in good with the Infernal Powers.

Stakewood Church's symbol is a stylized bat-winged crucifix.  Still Christian iconography, but tweaked enough to prevent unpleasant undead side-effects.
