Ravenites (Source Wovoka, Silver Hawk)

Members of the Order of Raven.  They claim to be the militant arm of the Ghost Dancers, but this is a lie.  They can be found in any and all Indian tribes, and look for a fast way to spread darkness, terror and war whilst gaining as much power as they can achieve.  In reality they are opposed to the Ghost Dancers and wage a secret war against them as they believe they are the only ones who can stop them in the quest for the destruction of the White Man.

The Reckoning (Source: Wovoka)

The Reckoning is a tremendous upheaval of the spirits. The Hunting Grounds—a world of spirits just beyond man’s sight—are overrun with evil beings called manitous. They seek only to spread fear, death, and destruction in the next world and in ours.

Wovoka believes the trouble was started by a young brave named Raven. He saw his whole
family killed by whites, and in his quest for revenge he broke open doors that should have
stayed closed. Evil that had slept for centuries swarmed out toward the light.

Custer (General Knowledge/Tombstone Epitaph)

Maintains a large camp on the eastern banks of the Missouri River in Dakota Territory, and runs
his patrols up and down the border.
