The Delta Zeta Kappa was a misogynistic fraternity at Crestwood College, formed by extremely wealthy and successful students. For generations, they had been worshipers of the demon Machida, to whom they sacrificed teenage girls in exchange for wealth, power and success. Members were identified by the scale-shaped scars that they bore on the chests, the number of scars indicating hierarchy within the fraternity. All members of Delta Zeta at the time were arrested and sentenced to consecutive life sentences for the disappearances of their victims.
