It appears we may have a new group that is searching for the same artifacts we are. I do not know what their purpose is, but I can only imagine what their powers might do in the wrong hands. We must find out all we can about this new group chapelofheavenlyguidance.org/index.html -W

It appears you are correct. They already have several items and are after a 4th. If you go the map page of that chapel site you can find hidden text as follows:chaos chaosmadnesschaoschaos madnesschaosmadnessmadness madnessmadness chaos chaosmadnesschaoschaos accursed madnessmadnesschaosmadness madnesschaoschaos accursed madnesschaoschaoschaos chaosmadnesschaos madnesschaosmadness madnessmadness madnessmadness madnesschaoschaosmadness accursed chaosmadness chaoschaosmadnessmadness madnesschaoschaoschaos madnessmadnesschaos madnessmadnesschaosmadness chaosmadnessmadness If you convert the CHAOS to a dash and MADNESS to a dot you get a morse code message with ACCURSED being used to separate words: - -.-- .-.. .. - -.-- accursed ..-. .-- accursed .--- -.- .-. .. .. .--. accursed -. --.. .--- ..- ..-. -.. This translates to: TYLITY (accursed) FW (accursed) JKRIIP (accursed) NZJUFD If you then take this message and perform a rotational or Caesar cipher on it you get CHURCH OF STARRY WISDOM Finally add that to the chapel's website to get the hidden archive page: chapelofheavenlyguidance.org/churchofstarrywisdom.htmlYou can see that they are looking for the Codex of Azathoth. Are you aware of its location?

W.
So, from the great work above, and the access gained to the Church of Starry Wisdom page, that they worship Azathoth and seek the codex.
My research on the subject of Azathoth puts him at the center of the universe ruling over the Outer Gods, one of which was Nyarlathotep whose resurrection we foiled in the case of the stolen urn. However, Nyarlathotep has been known to use several avatars, and the modus operandi is suspicious.
"...he wanders the earth, seemingly gathering legions of followers...through his demonstrations of strange and seemingly magical instruments."
Does this not sound like a church figurehead with a focus on collecting historical relics? I believe that Pastor Dan Vega may actually be an avatar of Nyarlathotep, and he seeks to bring Azathoth to this world.

Update: A couple of us have engaged Pastor Vega via his twitter account and named him. He has confirmed that he is the Haunter of the Dark - avatar of Nyarlathotep. However, I feel that we are rather blindly committing ourselves to this creature by professing our readiness to accept him in order to gain information. This cannot end well.
Update: In order to be made of use to the Chuch, Vega is asking for "offerings". Given his desire for artifacts, this is an opportunity to draw out and banish the Haunter if W is willing to help with appropriate bait...

Constantine, How can the team aid in finding the Codex before the Haunter does?

It may be worth noting that the Haunter has been previously banished by light and is not able to cross a lighted area.
Also, not sure how or if this is relevant, but am I the only one who thinks that Pastor Dan should know how to spell the name of the city where he resides in CA?

W. - were you aware of the Church of Starry Wisdom and the artifacts they maintain in their archives? I am curious of your relationship with the previous pastor, Sophia Regulus. Where did Pastor Dan Vega come from and what happened to Sophia? Thanks!

I received this from W a short while ago - "Sophia was the heart of their order... in many ways she was my opposite. While I collect artifacts to keep them from being used, the Church collects them with the full intent of using them. She and I had an uneasy truce. While I did not hear of her death until recently, I will not miss her. My research on the codex is nearly complete, and I will pass the information on soon. -W"

Has anyone tried using software to see if there is information hidden in the images on the webpage? Sometimes cyphers or other pictures can be hidden within.

W. Vega has stated that the codex was once destroyed by a rival cult by burning down the home of a previous sect of the Church of Starry Wisdom. Intelligence reports that there was a sect in San Francisco that was destroyed by arson - I do not have names or dates associated with this event.
Vega also stated that the museum collection that contains the codex was named after the son of a founder of the cult - the only founding name I have is old Enoch Bowen.
1) Do you know of any other founders that may be associated with the San Francisco sect, or 2) Any info on a museum collection named after Enoch Bowen or any of his line?

ALL NEED HELP -- Received a PDF containing numeric code from Pastor Dan, but have not had time to translate. Message in the email was, "next step! drive yourself crazy". Name of the PDf was clueforyou.pdf. There are several numbers in bold, not sure the significance. The numbers don't appear to be for a standard numeric to alpha conversion. Image of code here: www.flickr.com/photos/110626126@N07/11211653834/

That turned out to be "creepingchaos" as the username for the webmail.

I don't know fbama00. I can't translate it at all but the guys on the WB Page said it was the same code as the one they had translated. Happy to check again and confim though!

Is this the same sequence? "437404657087924213410286374610451911613179116151671713148233482331993167213634421118" That's what we had before but I can't copy and paste it in bold. I have a screen shot showing the bold numbers but don't know how to upload it here.

Not sure when it was solved but that user/pword no longer works. Is the code the same? It could just be that I am getting in late.

Sure! Here's the link: www.facebook.com/groups/470605089687941/It's a closed group though (only because all our investigation posts were showing up in our normal facebook feeds!) If you give it a bit, Justine can accept your invite then look for the numbered threads - #59 is the latest.

The codex has been retrieved and burned. It will probably return again in 50-100 years. Pudding.
