The Scarecrow Ministry
From Changeling Venue
Bloody Mary. The Man with the Hook Hand. Mothman. These urban legends are the pervasive, bled into the cultural consciouness and given a kind of life all their own. Everybody knows the stories. Say her name three times in a mirror in the darkness, and Bloody Mary will come. Sleep at the base of Black Agnes' grave, and she'll scare you to death at midnight. That hitchhiker out on old Highway 78 actually died years ago. Urban legends are about fear, and more importantly, about keeping people in line with that fear. Implicit in every legend is a lesson: don't talk to strangers, don't court danger, don't sneak out of the house late at night, and so on.
The Autumn Court changelings of the Scarecrow Ministry seek to use these urban legends to convey their own lessons. They become the monsters in the tales, continuing the work of the Hook-Hand Man or the Jersey Devil or other local legends. Many ministers change their names to those of their mythical monsters, embodying fear in a way that most within the Autumn Court are afraid to do. (Still in Works)

Rumours
- It is rumored that the Ministry has a special IRC room #Scarecrow_Ministry with revolutionary security systems in place.
- It is rumored that even though he's Summer Court, Happy Funball is considered an unofficial member of the Ministry, as he pulls off the Jersey Devil aspect well.
