Subtitle: The game of conspiracy, backstabbing, and maintaining a 4.0 Average.


Welcome to Illuminati University! If you're reading this, it means you have been accepted into our fine program, considered the best in universities teaching Things Man Was Not Meant To Know. At Illuminati University, for the low price of your lifelong (and beyond) commitment to the Grand Masters and 35,000$ per year you get:
  • 4 years of the best in Secret Education
  • Your choice of a degree ranging from Deep One Biology to Thought Supression to Unenlightened Religion
  • A large off-dimension campus with housing, school buildings, and a town designed to keep YOU entertained and happy
  • Interaction with a large and diverse student body that includes, but is not limited to, aliens, lycanthropes, secret masters, and mages.
  • FREE revival services by the multiverses best death wizards!*
  • The only school experience where the teachers are genuinely trying to kill you!

All you need to now is fill out this simple form:

  • Name:
  • Age: (18-24)
  • Desired Major:
  • Species (if other than human):
  • Special abilities, powers, or skills:
  • Personality:
  • Appearance:
  • A Brief History of Your Life:


Alright, so this will be a freeform rpg taking place on the aforementioned Illuminati University campus, where anything is possible. And I do mean anything. Students disentigrating each other? Mundane. Aliens descending from the sky to lead a musical number? Routine. Cthulhu coming in for tea and crumpets? Slightly unusual, but not unexpected. New players are always welcome, as new students, and can be of all sorts of types (with my approval). Go nuts. If this all works out, it turn into a huge, sprawling story with dozens of characters, tons of story arcs, and a massive world. The game itself will bounce around on the Sliding Scale of Silliness vs. Seriousness. As you gathered (if I wrote it well) from the intro, there's always going to be an air of wackiness and fun, but there will be major story arcs and events that are quite dark. So with out further ado, let the year begin!

  • Name: Russell Maye
  • Desired Major: One Dimensional Painting
  • Species (if other than human): Lycanthrope
  • Special abilities, powers, or skills: Russell always has enhanced senses and strength, but this is magnified while he's transformed. He's a good artist, and knowledgeable in all forms of it.
  • Personality: Russell is generally a friendly guy who likes and trusts everyone at first, at least until you do something to show you don't deserve it. He's a bit free spirit and almost never focuses on the task and hand, tending to wander off into the distance or think of unrelated things.
  • Appearance: Tall, with long shaggy brown hair and brown eyes. He has a nice hobo beard going on, and usually wears jeans with a band or art related t-shirt.
  • A Brief History of Your Life: Born to a longtime family of strictly orthodox werewolves, Russell rejected them to become a hippie, living on a commune for five years. A University talent scout found him there, and decided to grant him a scholarship after deciding that having a communist werewolf would make the school look much more politically diverse than it really is.

Name: Hikaru Tesla.

Age: 22.

Desired major: General mad sciences.

Species: Human.

Special Abilities/Skills: Extremely skilled in just about any field of science and technology, and dabbles in alchemy as well. She has a pair of steampunkesque goggles that allow her to see wavelengths and energies invisible to the naked eye, a flashy but weak raygun, and a utility belt of various potions and gasses.

Personality: Compassionate. Modest. Moderate. Reliable. All words which do not describe Hikaru. What she can be described as is a typical mad scientist: Morally ambiguous, megalomaniacal, exaggerated in behavior, and absent-minded. She is constantly scheming and calculating, but her plans almost never succeed due to her long winded gloats about them. She is quick to befriend...if she thinks it will further her lifelong goal of world domination.

Appearance: She is shortish, thin, and cute, and has long wavy blonde hair and striking green eyes. She typically wears a white labcoat over a black T-shirt and jeans, with black leather gloves and a belt. Her features show traces of Asian descent.

History: It was apparent from a young age how intelligent Hikaru was. What became apparent later was that her brightness apparently made her evil.

The child of a Japanese teacher and an Austrian watchmaker, she is a victim of Malign Hypercognition Disorder, a mental condition that affects those with extremely high IQ, also known as Evil Genius Disease. She excelled at school but had...troubles with her classmates. Namely, sabotaging them in increasingly elaborate and alarming ways. When she was fifteen and declared her dream to be world domination, she was finally sent to a mental infirmary for three years until she finally faked having a breakthrough and disappeared. Eventually she decided higher education was the best option for getting a headstart on her goal, and got noticed by the University.
