Two years ago, the Pantheons started a program that was supposed to enforce the positive relations between them. They had their Scions join together into Bands that would fight side by side and share great adventures. Last year, this program was terminated.
An argument between Odin and Tazcatlipoca grew into a fight that destroyed London Bridge and much of its surroundings. This fight evolved into war between the Aesir and the Atzlánti, and other Pantheons are beginning to take sides. Although there have only been two minor skirmishes, both sides are building up for greater battles that appear to be just around the bend. Tension is building, and it is only a matter of time before it explodes into the first Divine World War.
But while the Gods bicker and fight, monsters are rising in the aftermath of the London Catastrophe. The British government believed the event to be an act of terrorism at first, but it all changed when impossible monsters began showing up within the disaster zone. People were dragged away, never to be heard from again, and weird occurrences became frequent.
And not just in London. All over the World, the evidence of divine intervention became impossible to ignore except by the most stubborn of people. Monsters, previously unseen even in religious context harrowed the mortal population, and people turned to religion for guidance, both old ones and new.
For most, life carries on as it used to. Cults of various integrity and morality are more frequent, but most people would still rather go to church on a Sunday. For most people, news of monster attacks are distant horrors, like war or famine; it is nothing that would happen in their neighbourhood.
You know better. While the Pantheons wage their war in the Overworld, they turn a blind eye to everything that is happening in the World. Cults worship forgotten deities, monsters hide within human flesh, and you are the only ones who seem to give a damn. Sure, the US government says its working on something, but what good will it do in the now? Action must be taken. It is time for big heroics, but on a smaller scale.
