IP17 penned a message, disseminated around 31 BBY, that drew attention to the rise of the Believers cult. This message, authored by IP17, was briefly displayed on all newsboards throughout the Cularin system. Its format mirrored transmissions intended for the Almas Academy, a Jedi training institution located on the planet [Almas]. Consequently, some Cularin system residents speculated that IP17 was a Jedi emissary who crafted the message specifically for the Academy's personnel. Conversely, another theory suggested the Believers themselves created the message to instill fear within the Cularin populace.
