Risman.jpg Father Matthew Risman - A youth minister for a large church in Minneapolis, Risman went through a drastic change after the discovery of mutants. He believed that mutants were the spawn of Satan, and it was his job, along with that of all believers, to rid the world of these hell spawns. He was one of the first individuals to join in the Church of Humanity, but thought that their actions weren’t proactive enough to rid the world of the mutant menace as he put it. Eventually, he split from the Church of Humanity to form his own group, the Purifiers, intent on handling the mutant threat by any means necessary.
File:NatPur.jpg Natalie Gleason - Natalie Gleason is the younger sister of New Mutant, Nicholas Gleason. Unknown to her, her house was burnt down by the Friends of Humanity, and she herself was saved by her brother before being left at the police station, and later arranged to be put in a foster home by Dr. Nathaniel Essex. That home was Matthew Risman’s. While there, she confided in him about her brother’s condition, and Risman has since convinced her that the fire and deaths of her parents must have been part of the judgment passed upon them for taking care of Nick. This has made her one of the youngest members of the Purifiers.


Details

The Purifiers are a right wing religious group that started in the American-Midwest. Fundamentalist and Christian, the Purifiers believe that mutations and mutants are unholy and unclean. They're a terrorist organization and commit acts such as murder, as in their minds the only way to 'save' a mutant is to kill them. They believe that this is doing God's Work. The thought is to save the soul, the unclean, mutated body has to be destroyed.

The founder of the Purifiers is Matthew Risman. Though not ordained in any church as a minister, Risman started the movement in Wisconsin. They've grown exponentially since then and have chapters in Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois and Iowa. The followers are fanatical in their devotion and their ideas. When told they will even commit suicide rather than jeopardize their work.

Brewster House in Chicago is just one place where this ideal is coming up. These people genuinely believe they are doing God's work. The purifiers are, essentially, a cult.

Most recently the group was spotted trying to sacrifice a mutant. However, it was foiled by combined effort of Kurt Sefton, Catseye, Kyle Gibney, Alexander Lexington, and Nicholas Gleason. During the fight, Nick came to the shocking revelation that his sister, Natalie had joined the ranks of the Purifers.
