History[]
Post-Big Bang[]
The Society was founded by Montague during an exhibition in Grand Glacier at an decades ago. Hope and Nisha's families joined The Society before they were born, and as a result, Hope, Nisha, Valeria, and Kavel were raised within it. Nisha and Valeria ascended to the highest ranks and joined Montague at the top. Oscar, an outsider also climbed the ranks to become one of the leader. Peter Griffin, empowered by Meowscles' expired Slurp, became wealthy and one of the Society's leaders. The Society gradually took control of the Island, with most elites joining their cause, except for Silas Hesk, who resisted despite multiple invitations from Montague.
Hope, driven by a sense of justice, left The Society to found The Underground, a rebel organization opposing The Society. Jones later joined The Underground. The Society's leaders crafted medallions with fragments of the gods' power to strengthen themselves and began searching for Pandora's Box, following Valeria's advice, thinking they would gain more power. Believing Jones had the answers, they kidnapped Peely.
Chapter 5: Season 1[]
The plan to kidnap Peely backfired. Jones not only knew nothing about the Box but he decided to went to war against The Society with help from The Underground as he was determined to save his friend. Through the Takedown Quests, Jones, Hope, and The Looper eliminated Legion Guards and Elites, stole Society Medallions, and defeated The Society's leaders, ultimately rescuing Peely from Fencing Fields. These actions weakened The Society's control over the Island.
Meanwhile, Valeria continued searching for Pandora's Box near Ruined Reels and set up a new camp. As The Society's power waned, a traveler named Odyssey arrived, discovering a Mosaic that bore a warning. Odyssey recruited The Looper to help her research the Mosaic, believing it was linked to ancient power on the Island. She revealed that the Society Medallions contained fragments of this power, which was growing stronger. After a series of earthquakes, a giant hand holding Pandora's Box emerged from the ground near Valeria's camp. Valeria freed the Box, unleashing a beam of light and countless souls. However The Society Bosses didn't obtained the power they expected to obtain and instead unleashed the wrath of the gods.
Chapter 5: Season 2[]
After Pandora's Box was opened, the gods arrived on the Island in otherworldly rage. After closing Pandora's Box, Zeus announced his desire to annihilate mortalkind for good. The Underground largely defeated The Society, leaving only a few members like Montague, Valeria, Oscar, Nisha, and Kavel. Valeria contacted Clara, another Society member, for an unknown mission. Montague, considering his Society godlike, confronted the gods with little success. The Society members, including Valeria, were no match for the gods and barely survived the battle against Zeus. Montague and Valeria escaped the Island with the later draining the Society coffers in the process, while Peter, Oscar, Nisha, and Kavel went into hiding.
Chapter 5: Season 3[]
After these events, The Society's remnants disbanded, and their remaining minor bases were abandoned. The organization became a mere company, managing the Island's railway system, Reckless Railways, and the Grand Glacier Hotel. However, as The Society stopped paying No Sweat Insurance, The Underwriter attacked and took one of their trains out of service. Oscar and Nisha came out of hiding after the gods left the Island. Oscar who settled at Classy Courts aimed to reclaim his lost assets. He held no grudges against Hope, Jones, or Peely, focusing on rebuilding his life. Nisha, needing to rebuild her life, was encouraged by Hope and Jones to fight for something good and is thinking about to join The Underground, along with her brother Kavel.
