In Character Generation
Cult is a standard Background bought with Background dots, Freebies, and Starting XP.
When you create a character and pick a Cult score, you will be asked to set a note called "cult" on your character. In this note, please disclose what belief your cult members are united under.
After Character Generation
Cult is bought 1 dot at a time in one of the following ways:

Raising Off Screen
Send in a +request with the following information:
- Cult Concept: Who are you looking to network with, either in terms of shared belief or a particular type of audience?
- IC Method: How is your character winning these people over?
The ST will then have you roll some dice vs 6 (+/- appropriate modifiers) to represent the act of networking and meeting a pool of people within that particular social circle. Each roll costs 1 Downtime. You need [3 x contacts rating] in successes.
Once you have acquired the required amount of successes, you will be able to purchase the next level of Cult, and then your +note will be updated if necessary. Since this is a Background, the cost is [3 x current Cult].
