In White Wolf, they commonly have something called "The Veil" – the 3.5th cubicle wall separating the characters from mundane society (i.e, the reason not to be overt with their powers). In Scion, there's no particular reference to this, as the characters are supposed to build their own legends to the point that they become their own deity. However, we have a catch that normally accompanies the Veil in the form of Fate Binding.

So how often should the Veil be crossed by non-Awakened individuals in Scion?

Edit 1: As an example, if they have a critter should they keep it quiet (on the grounds that seeing it can fatebind or can it walk around like Adrian Veight's cat in Watchmen.

It depends on the game you're playing. There is a war coming, so whether the veil gets torn or not will depend on what your players want.

Some games will go all out, with a new Scion on the news every day. Other games will have characters trying their hardest to blend in and avoid the complications of Fate-binding.

Just remember that if you're waking the world up to the supernatural that there are going to be consequences.
