Illuminati

The Organization. The Company. The Agency.

All of these words encompass the Illuminati, but none are complete. An ancient secret society, the organization has had many names and forms over the centuries; they have been called Illuminati since the renaissance. They have remained hidden for thousands of years, secretly guiding the course of human events and protecting this world from otherwordly threats. Recently, the Illuminati have adopted a more business-like, corporate model. Unknown trillions of dollars worth of assets are secretly owned and operated by individuals and companies operating as shells for the Eye.

The Illuminati are ruthless and determined to protect the order they have so meticulously designed. They will use excessive amounts of leverage to ensure their secrecy and the success of their efforts.

In previous eras, members would identify themselves to each other by differing means; a secret handshake or code phrase, a shared symbol or pattern worn, etc. Today, the company uses modern means. Nearly all communications from the Panopticon are electronic, using public platforms. They are always from a disposable, one-use source with a name an agent can clearly identify by using the word "EYE" conspicuously, e.g. @EyeSeeYou, Eyescream@gmail, #EyeAmTheLaw.
