Serenity's Rest

Community:

• Serenity's Rest is a tightly-knit, self-sufficient religious community, with members that rarely interact with the outside world. They rely on their own resources and skills to survive.
• The community has a fixation on fertility and large family sizes, Having twins, triplets, or higher-order multiples is seen as as a sign of divine favor. Families with a history of multiples are considered chosen and special.
• Despite its isolated nature, Serenity's Rest maintains connections to the outside world through secretive means, such as online activities for necessities and recruitment.
• Members are expected to give a significant portion of their income to support the community.

Culture and Societal Norms:

• Men are encouraged to take on multiple wives, with a strong preference for young, fertile brides. It can involve polygamy, with women taking on younger, "sister-wives" to help with child-rearing and serving their husband and the community.
• These marriages are sometimes arranged and consummated at very young ages, with child marriage not being uncommon.

Female Norms:

• Women are primarily responsible for procreation, and they are expected to continually get pregnant and bear children until their fertility wanes. The community discourages any form of birth control or family planning.
• Women are treated as the property of the community and are expected to be subservient, fertile, and dedicated solely to childbearing, homemaking, and supporting the community. Higher education and careers outside the home are strongly discouraged and often forbidden.
• The community encourages members, particularly women, to find a partner young, often as soon as they reach menarche. By marrying young, they can dedicate more of their lives to childbearing, ensuring a steady stream of new members for the community.
• Women who fail to conceive are often seen as cursed or lacking in faith and families with fewer children face subtle pressure or stigma to have more children.
• Women who don't wish to engage can do so, but they are not immune to the pressure from other women and the community to fulfill their natural role.
