To a Bloody Pulp

The Disciples of the Bound Devil is a cult of fanatics which dates from the days of the American Revolution. The rumor is that a bat-demon was summoned and bound beneath Gotham by certain Patriot leaders in order to help the cause. The demon is said to be able to exert psychic influence over those who come too close to his prison, and such people likely join the deranged cult set on releasing him from his long imprisonment.
