History

The Devil

After visiting a friend in hospital, Robert Stroud heads to Blueberry Hill restaurant and finds a partially eaten body by the dumpster. He contacts police but returns later that evening, investigating the area for signs of Otherworlder activity. Two officers notice his van and begin to search the abandoned buildings in the Blueberry Hill lot, only to come face to face with a shadowy horror.

Robert pries a steel bar lose with his bare hands and pummels the monster, killing it. He's sent home and the body is taken to the FBI's special lab in Las Vegas to be examined. It seems this creature has struck before.

Special agent Amanda Mulgin is handling the investigation, and contacts Robert to set up a meeting.

The Pope

Debie Bartell, Michael Mohan, and Kelly Franks are on the trial of a cult of Gruumsh and end up in an abandoned Las Vegas strip club. Within it, they find a portal to the Otherworld and a rave. They manage to throw off the powerful trance of the music, but Michael sees a powerful vision of a priest with bloody hands. He flares with burning righteousness and alerts the guards to the groups presence.

After a brief altercation with the bouncers, one of them whispers a code-word, "Havoc" into his microphone. As the guards flee, the dancers begin to scream and fall down. Soon small creatures burst from some of them. Micheal and Kelly tend to the dying dancers while Debbie discovers the source of the unholy power - the DJ's music - and takes her out.

Authorities are alerted and Micheal makes sure the dancers make it to ambulances outside.

The trio investigate the 'warehouse' the rave was in and discover it's a temple with shrines to several gods within. Under the dance floor, they come across an angel whose wings/harmonies have been taken. She tells them of the priest who performed the ritual: a orc with one smoking eye.

They untie her and decide to bring her to the real world.
