Fantastical Fraud and Folklore

I've had fraud on the brain recently. Folding Ideas recently put a video out on Mantracks , fake fossils and the creationist cranks who try to profit off of them, building roadside museums and doing lecture tours and leading expeditions. I also started listening to Bigfeets , a podcast discussing the TV show Mountain Monsters. Imagine…Finding Bigfoot, but instead of scientists trying to prove a creature's existence, it's a group of hillbillies (or more accurately guys in hillbilly cosplay) trying to catch and murder a host of creatures, improvving their way through life-or death battles with the cryptids of Appalachia. Both of these together got me thinking…your Standard Elfgame World is gonna be full of these people.
