They don't want to weaponize it. They want to release it. They believe the Ur signal is a sleeping god, a Way-ascended intelligence, and that awakening it is the next step in human evolution.
The Remembrancer — the Cult's leader. Never seen directly. Communicates through intermediaries and visions.
Sera Vael — field operative. Thoughtful, genuinely kind, completely committed to a potentially catastrophic goal.
Orin Vess — (see Dead Man's Bounty) — the Cult considers them a living miracle.

They won't harm civilians to get what they want. But they will sacrifice themselves.

6 segments. Fills when the Cult successfully performs Way rituals near Ur sites, acquires artifacts, or gains access to the signal. When full: The awakening begins. The crew must decide whether to stop it.
