Story
- Wonder Woman
- Circe
- Sons of Trigon picks up where the " Sins of the Father" storyline from the base game left off, with the demon lord Trigon ready to break free of his bonds, intent on destroying Earth. The influence of this powerful villain has already been felt across the world, and it will be up to the player to either stop it or use it to their advantage.
- Circe and Brother Blood were successful in releasing Trigon from his dimension, but the Sentinels of Magic were ready. They performed a counter-hex, placing a protective barrier around our realm. The barrier trapped Trigon between his world and ours, resulting in the creation of an in-between dimension — the Gotham Wastelands — a version of Gotham City that is rapidly approaching Hell. Players will see familiar Gotham landmarks, such as the Cathedral and Knightsdome, twisted, broken and corrupted by Trigon's presence in this realm.
- With Trigon at his most vulnerable, Trigon's sons have come forth to vie for his power. The six sons represent six of the seven deadly sins: Wrath ( Jared), Envy ( Jesse), Lust ( Jacob), Sloth ( Jack), Gluttony ( Julius), and Greed ( James). Trigon's sons seek the family reunion from Hell — to be joined with the seventh sin, Pride ( Raven), and their father. But like any family reunion, it's rife with sibling rivalry.
- The sons vie for their father's affection, all desiring that which Raven refused: to be his vessel and gain ultimate power. To strengthen the power of sin, the sons have sent demons to the mortal plane to abduct innocent souls. These souls are dragged through portals to the Gotham Wastelands, where they are tortured in order to fill the coffers of the sin demons. Once enough sin has been gathered, Trigon can be awoken from his forced slumber.
- Meanwhile, Wonder Woman and the Titans are trying desperately to keep Raven from temptation, and to keep the children of sin from releasing their father, and endangering the entire universe. Circe and Brother Blood have their own desires to release Trigon, and will not let the sons interfere.
