Lore & Background
Dimple's cult, also known as the cult of Dimple, consists of parasitic spirits that feed on spiritual energy and amplify negative emotions like jealousy, anger, and despair to weaken their hosts. When a human resists or possesses strong willpower, the spirits struggle to maintain control, often resulting in violent physical mutations. The conflict escalates when Dimple seeks to use Mob's immense psychic power to become a god, leading to a desperate struggle for Mob's soul—not a global confrontation.
Reader's Guide
The Interdimensional Parasites function less as a structured organization and more as a hive-mind swarm driven by a singular biological imperative: survival through consumption. Led by Dimple, who acts as both the strategist and the primary anchor for their presence on Earth, the group operates by infiltrating human society en masse. Their members are not individuals with unique names or backstories but rather extensions of the collective will. They seek out psychics specifically because these humans possess high-calorie spiritual energy, making them prime targets for possession. The faction's role in the narrative is to serve as an existential reset button, forcing all previous rivalries between psychic gangs and organizations to dissolve into a unified front against extinction. Ultimately, their goal is to strip humanity of its free will, turning every person on Earth into a hollow shell serving the Parasites' needs. They represent the ultimate test of Mob's philosophy: that power without emotional maturity leads only to destruction, while genuine connection and self-acceptance are the true defenses against such overwhelming darkness.
