"The Society" is pulling the strings in secret, and they've taken Peely in their spite. Join "The Underground" and take down The Society's bosses — including its most notorious boss Valeria.

The Society was an organization in Fortnite: Battle Royale that was first introduced in Chapter 5: Season 1. They were a corrupt group of wealthy individuals founded by Montague and lead by him and four other bosses. The last generation of bosses wished to find Pandora's Box to get more power, thinking themselves as gods.

They were the main antagonist faction of Chapter 5: Season 1.

Overview

The Society presents itself as a conglomerate run by elites. With the exception of Silas Hesk, all the elites of the Island have joined The Society. They are the owners of the Grand Glacier Hotel, Reckless Railways's Grand Station as well as the Train, Fencing Fields, Lavish Lair castle, Snooty Steppes village, The Marigold Yacht and some smaller mansions, villas and bases.

In truth, they are a corrupt group, an order made up of elites seeking power and a strict class hierarchy. All the families members of The Society are part of the lineage of the Greek Pantheon. They are led by five bosses: Valeria the most notorious Boss, Montague the original founder, Oscar, Nisha and Peter Griffin. They are opposed by The Underground, a faction of fighters and rebels wishing to put an end to their group.

As of Chapter 5: Season 2, The Society has been largely defeated and broken up because of The Underground and The Pantheon, with only a few active members remaining.

As of Chapter 5: Season 3, only some remnants remain, acting as a company responsible for the Island's railway system, Lavish Lair, Reckless Railways and Grand Glacier Hotel.

As of Chapter 5: Season 4, Kingdom of Doom took control of the Island railways system, however they didn't took over Grand Station, for an unknown reason. Lavish Lair was also replaced by Doomstadt, leaving only Reckless Railways, Grand Glacier and Sandy Steppes under the control of The Society. However, after Absolute Doom Event, Reckless Railways disappeared and was replaced by Freaky Fields.

History

Post-Big Bang

The Society was founded at an unknown time period several decades if not centuries ago by Montague, who presented his idea to the other elites of the Island during an an inauguration in Grand Glacier. This led elites such as Nisha's and Valeria's family to join The Society. Decades later and once they were born, Hope, Nisha, Valeria, and Kavel were raised in The Society. Nisha and Valeria later took the place of their parents as heads of their respective families and rose to the highest rank, joining Montague at the top of The Society. Oscar was also offered a place after having climbed the ranks when he was an outsider. Peter Griffin, after becoming quite strong thanks to Meowscles' expired Slurp, became rich and also joined The Society becoming one of the bosses under unknown circumstances. The Society gradually took control of the Island hiring goons and people like Killian and Clara to become their Operators, along with all other elites joining their cause, except Silas Hesk, who decided to stand against them despite the multiple invitations to join the organization from Montague. However, Hope realizing how terrible they were, was driven by her sense of justice, rejected the ideals of The Society and left the organization before founding The Underground, a rebel organization dedicated to fighting The Society that Jones later joined. Seeking more power, Valeria would dig into her grandfather's old books on The Pantheon where she would read about the powers of Pandora's Box, she would share her findings with the other leaders leading them to search for Pandora's Box. Believing Jones had the answers, the Bosses kidnapped Peely. By this period, the bosses each had a medallion with a fraction of the gods' power to make themselves stronger, it's unknown when they got them and how nor if previous generations bosses had their own.

Chapter 5: Season 1

However, this plan backfired, as Jones, who had no knowledge of the Box yet was willing to go to extreme measures to save his friend, went to war with them with the help of The Underground led by Valeria's younger sister Hope as a collective resistance against the Society.

Over the course of the Takedown Quests; Jones, Hope, and The Looper work together to eliminate Legion Guards and Elites, steal Society Medallions, and defeat the leaders of the Society, which culminate in Jones finally rescuing Peely from Fencing Fields. These attacks cause the Society's control of the Island to begin to falter. However, Valeria continued her search for Pandora's Box near Ruined Reels, where she set up a new camp.

As The Society's power continued to dwindle, a strange traveler arrived on the Island, named Odyssey, and a strange Mosaic that bears a warning was discovered. After hearing about The Looper and seeing part of their fate, she recruited them to help her in her research about The Mosaic that she believed to herald something and that it's linked to the ancient power that she feels on the Island. As The Looper managed to find more fragments of The Mosaic, Odyssey revealed that the Society Medallions that the leaders of The Society possessed, contained a fragment of this power, and that this same power grows stronger. Later, after a series of earthquakes near Valeria's camp, a giant hand emerged from the ground, holding the chained Pandora's Box, meaning Valeria finally found it. Sometime later, the box was broken free from the chains by Valeria, and unleashed a giant beam of light and countless souls out of the box.

Chapter 5: Season 2

After opening Pandora's Box, Valeria disappeared, and the gods arrived on the Island with Zeus intending to put an end to mortalkind. The Society is largely defeated by The Underground, with only a few members such as Montague, Oscar, Nisha, Kavel. Valeria contacts Clara, a Society Member , for an unknown mission. Montague, viewing his Society as godlike and unstoppable, confronts the wrathful gods with the remnants of The Society, notably Zeus, Artemis and Poseidon, on several occasions with little to no success. The Society members including Valeria proven no match for the gods, barely surviving their wrath. After this Montague and Valeria both escaped the Island, with Valeria draining The Society coffers while Oscar, Nisha and Kavel when into hiding, keeping a low profile for a while.

Chapter 5: Season 3

After this, The Society's remaining minor bases were abandoned by the Minions who guarded them. The organization is no more than just a company and a group of elites now, still being responsible for the Island's railway system, the entirety of Reckless Railways and the management of the Grand Glacier Hotel, but without the power they once had. However as The Society stopped paying No Sweat Insurance, The Underwriter attacked one of their remaining infrastructure: the train and took it out of service. Oscar and Nisha later came out of hiding after the gods had left the Island. Oscar returned to take back everything he lost, he settled at Classy Courts. He holds little to no grudges against Hope, Jones and Peely, and

is just determined to continue life and recover everything he lost. Since the fall of The Society and Fencing Fields disappearance, Nisha must rebuild her life from scratch. Hope, believing in Nisha, tries to convince her to fight for something good. Jones also try to convince her.

Chapter 5: Season 4

After Doom brought Latveria to the Island along with The Raft and created his new kingdom, The Society restored their train and Orchard Station. However Doom took control of it and painted it in his image, taking over the whole railways system, though he did not take control of Grand Station. Nisha and Kavel finally decided to reluctantly join The Underground, turning their back on their Society brethren. Artemis, the last of The Pantheon still on the island later reveals to The Looper that "every family" in The Society, including Hope's and Nisha's are from the lineage of The Pantheon, making Hope, Valeria, Nisha, Kavel and potentially Montague descendants of Greek Gods. After The Undergrounds fight against Doom, a Rift Beacon was sent flying, landing at Grand Glacier where it began to malfunction merging Ultima Carver's Halloween Reality with the hotel, leading it to be consumed by pumpkins and vines.

Chapter 2 Remix

Hope would contact Valeria, to talk about her own future as well as the Island's future. She encourages Valeria to meet up with The Underground and rebuild things with the help of Nisha, saying that otherwise The Underground wouldn't stay gone.

Trivia

• Unlike other factions led by a single person, The Society is led by a group of people bonded by a common interest.
  • Ranks in The Society are mainly determined by wealth and to a lesser extend skill. The Legion Grunts being at the lowest rank, followed by the Operators, competent agents serving the Elites and Bosses and acting on their behalf, the Elites being both wealthy and competent and finally the Bosses, accumulating the most wealth and enough skills.
  • Most of the Island's elites are said to have joined The Society, with Silas Hesk being the last one still defying them.
• According to Jones in the Takedown Quests, the Society get their power from their Medallions.
• According to Oscar, Nisha and Hope grew up as members of The Society , indicating that their families were either already part of it or joined when they were too young to decide on their own.
  • This fact is reinforced by Hope's dialogue reaction with Oscar during Chapter 5: Season 1 "You weren't always part of The Society. I'm still holding out hope." which was the first clue Oscar was a more recent addition than the others.
  • Nisha, Hope, Kavel and Valeria are often referred to as "Society brats" by other members of The Society like Oscar and Clara, supporting the fact that they were already members of The Society at a very young age.
  • Nisha later confirm her family has been part of The Society for generations.
• It is noted by both Nisha and Clara that despite the bad actions of The Society, it gave The Island a needed stability and order.
• Peter Griffin is the only member of The Society to not be featured on The Underground's Bounty Board.
  • Early concept art showed Peter Griffin was originally intended to be part of The Underground's Hitlist. But it was cut as they didn't want to make him out to be a bad guy players would want to shoot.
    • Though this reason is questionable as Peter Griffin himself has done many horrible deeds in Family Guy that could justify his antagonistic role.
    • Despite his removal from The Underground hit list, Peter Griffin remained a boss of The Society and an actual villain of the game, making the reason for the removal even more confusing because the basement of his mansion clearly shows that he also sequestered Peely, just like the other bosses.
• The Society medallions empowering the bosses are tied to the Gods powers likely because every family in The Society are from the lineage of The Pantheon.
• Valeria and Nisha's families seem relatively prominent in The Society , and it's possible that their parents were bosses of The Society before them as previous heads of their respective families.
