Alan Seer

Alan Seer (born Anthony James Strachowski) is the founder and all-time leader of the Strafe Witnesses. Formerly, a psychic, TV host, and prominent celebrity. In 2017, he published his prophecy of a “judgment day” for November 2027. After the Strafe, this prophecy brought him global fame and unquestionable authority in the eyes of his followers.

Now that the Witnesses have been labeled an extremist organization, Seer conceals his whereabouts, making no public appearances. He believes in the divine nature of the Crystalline and sees his mission in subduing it and making it work for the benefit of humanity.

## Bio

Strachowski was born into a dysfunctional family. His father was an alcoholic and rarely displayed any concern for him. At age 12, Anthony ran away from home after a quarrel between his parents and was taken in by a Pentecostal commune. He spent several months in the sect, where he was taking part in religious rituals. On the one hand, this experience scarred the boy psychologically, but on the other, it instilled him with a belief in his own “special powers”. At age 17, Anthony dropped off school and joined a wandering circus troupe. For several years, he performed at local fairs until he was spotted by a prominent TV producer. The young man was offered a role in a popular “psychic” reality show and moved to San Francisco.

At 30, under the alias ‘Alan Seer’, Anthony launched his own TV show on one of the largest cable channels. The show proved a huge success, transforming Seer into a prominent media figure. However, once he acquired wealth and fame, he could not control his descent into drug abuse, and in March 2005, he was hospitalized with heart failure due to an overdose.

This incident marked the rapid decline of Seer’s media career. After his discharge from hospital, he gave an interview in which he shared his near death experience and the gift of clairvoyance manifested in him. He then spent three years in Tibet, undergoing “spiritual healing”. In 2012, he returned to San Francisco, but his attempts to make a name for himself in show business again were futile.

In 2015, Seer opened a private psychic practice and started a blog where he posted prophecies of forthcoming events. In April 2017, he published his most well-known prophecy—the Strafe, “a rain of brimstone and fire” that would hit the Earth in 2027, marking the dawn of a new era of human history.

Few took his words seriously, but Seer managed to gather a handful of followers. Thus, the sect of the Strafe Witnesses was born.

## Personality

Seer is a charismatic leader, whose mere presence stirs the minds of his followers. He is a skilled showman, natural psychologist, and adept at manipulating emotions. He sees his “divine purpose” in subduing the Crystalline with the power of human will, and ascending humanity to a new stage of evolution.
