The Illuminati (Recruiting)

We are established as the first ever "Omniversal" defense force. We are a collective of the greatest this realm has to offer, regardless of legal and moral affiliation. We are bound together under one banner, and one common purpose. The Defense and secretive control of this realm, and the destruction of all whom threaten it. We are the first, and final defense against extra dimensional threats, when "God's" and powers both lesser and higher threaten we are the ones who destroy them without hesitation, and without mercy. We cast aside the labels of "Hero" and "Villain" and stand united against the common enemies of our realm and all others.  We have the power and the resources to shape the world around us however we see fit...It is our mission, and our obligation to defend this realm... and failure is not an option.

• Secrecy: This group is not one you'll see in the media, this group is not one that is known of. This is a group of shadows and secrets. To endanger the secrecy of this group or its members is to invoke death.
  
  
• Professionalism: This group is dedicated to something far greater than petty rivalry and squabbles. If you do not agree with the views/existence of another member of the group settle the matter on your own time, not while the group is assembled working in the defense of the universe.
  
  
• Privacy: This groups members are enigmatic to even each other. There is a singular member in which all other members recognize, and it is through this person in which they operate. This is to ensure the safety and privacy of the other members participation.
  
  
• Objectivism: We will not ask one to go against their own moral code, but we are a group that is central around the objective. If the objective to kill an individual, that individual will die. By any means necessary.
  
  
• Control is Freedom: This is controversial, however this  group is by no means an "evil" organization. They do, however believe in the control of the world and its events, though perhaps not to the extent some may immediately assume. It is our belief that in "controlling the world" we can better protect the world from extra dimensional horrors. What our individual members choose to use their powers for is up to them.
  

• Activity/Experience: Your activities in the world must have been in someway effective on the world around it. The more active you are in changing this world and taking action means the more likely your acceptance is. This group will not just randomly appear to one who is a new Hero just starting out unless they have proven themselves. (Character's history/past is acceptable)
  
  
• Usefulness: You must be able to offer this group something, maybe it is a business that has connections, maybe it is a particular skill or set of skills. Maybe it is wealth or expertise in a particular area of study or combat.

"What experiences do you believe have prepared you for the responsibility of defending an entire realm?"
”I have defended and saved multiple realms within my time, so you could say that my experience is vast when it comes to defending realms.  So I believe I am more than prepared to do something such as defending a realm.”

"What are your skills? More specifically what can you offer to this groups talent pool?"
”Other than the standard perks of being a sorcerer supreme, I’m proficient in multiple arts of magic that the lesser mage would find impossible. My experience in walking realms is considerable, as well as my knowledge within the occult, which I think would be very useful to the cause of protecting the realm.

"Can you confirm that it has been made clear to you that you are free to depart form this group at any moment you wish without penalty. But should you ever endanger the secrecy of this group you will be hunted, and failure to survive will result in death?"
”Regaurdless of my incarnation, you’ll find that few secrets escape these lips. Worry not, I won’t go doing something so stupid.”

Our Group believes in "Control is Freedom" I would like you to explain to me what YOU believe. Should a group of elect individuals be able to lead or control worldly events so that humanity can have some freedoms and prosper towards a greater future?
”I have seen humanity over many years,in many realms and when left to themselves it had only bred destruction. If it takes a group of elect individuals to keep them prosperous and for the most part free, then it is something that must happen.”

  Yes, a recruitment topic would be nice.

Dissonance

"What experiences do you believe have prepared you for the responsibility of defending an entire realm?"
My whole life has brought me to a time where i believe i am capable of helping to defend a realm. The world may already be sick but it is ours to cure.

"What are your skills? More specifically what can you offer to this groups talent pool?"
My power is my greatest strength, i am evolutionarily superior and have worked my whole life to hone the skills i was blessed with. I am an intelligent man, I have lived through hardship, nothing could crack me.

"Can you confirm that it has been made clear to you that you are free to depart form this group at any moment you wish without penalty. But should you ever endanger the secrecy of this group you will be hunted, and failure to survive will result in death?"
The terms are clear to me, i have no intention of betrayal.

Our Group believes in "Control is Freedom" I would like you to explain to me what YOU believe. Should a group of elect individuals be able to lead or control worldly events so that humanity can have some freedoms and prosper towards a greater future?
"Control is Freedom"... hmm, i like that. The humans think they know what is best for them but they do not. It is true we may not be alone in the universe and evolution has handed us the tools to fight and yet they resist. I believe that individuals should be able to speak on their behalf. Freedom is weakness, Freedom... is an illusion.

"I simply go by 'Elena Vexus'."
(Elena Vexus)

"What experiences do you believe have prepared you for the responsibility of defending an entire realm?"
"I will at least be honest here. I have done nothing but aid in the destruction of this 'realm'. Though, with the power to destroy a realm also comes the power to defend one."

"What are your skills? More specifically what can you offer to this groups talent pool?"
"I have an unrivaled knowledge in all things residing in the vast category of science. My net worth has been steady increasing over the years. Also, I have basically been killed three times, yet here I stand."

"Can you confirm that it has been made clear to you that you are free to depart form this group at any moment you wish without penalty. But should you ever endanger the secrecy of this group you will be hunted, and failure to survive will result in death?"
"I understand clearly. But good luck on finding success on, well, either of those things..."

Our Group believes in "Control is Freedom" I would like you to explain to me what YOU believe. Should a group of elect individuals be able to lead or control worldly events so that humanity can have some freedoms and prosper towards a greater future?
"I believe that any concept, any theory, that is eventually solidified into something more tangible, can be perfected. Anything and anyone is capable of perfection. Some things just need more work than others.
As for your second question, I do believe a group of individuals should be able to easily influence the progression of humanity. What I do not believe is that an entire group is necessary. If a singular being is allowed, or rather gains, enough power then they should easily be able to influence any number of beings. Regardless of history, species, or place of origin."

Michael Coriolis Velon

"What experiences do you believe have prepared you for the responsibility of defending an entire realm?"
"Experience is a matter that I am poorly lacking in, for I have yet to celebrate my second birthday. However, one not need be experienced to protect one's people; Abhimanyu was but sixteen during his first war, yet was one of the fiercest and most virtuous warriors of his time, and possibly for all times. As such, I hardly feel this question should count for or against someone; a fool just as easily massacres an army as he does fall off his own horse and die, regardless of time spent training."


"What are your skills? More specifically what can you offer to this groups talent pool?"
"Skills...what an interesting inquiry.  If one lists another's abilities, it is praise, yet he cannot do so for himself lest he be dubbed an arrogant braggart. However, other's opinion of myself do not overly concern me. I have an intellect that, while not the best in any dimension I am aware of, is certainly far superior to that of a mundane human. Telekinetic prowess I posses also, coupled with a nigh unlimited supply of currency."

"Can you confirm that it has been made clear to you that you are free to depart form this group at any moment you wish without penalty, but should you ever endanger the secrecy of this group you will be hunted, and failure to survive will result in death?"
"I know well how to keep a secret, and can assure you this is one tale which shall never be told; for your liking, however, I will both verbally and in writing speak in the affirmative of this." Vegail procures a roll of parchment from within his jacket, along with a stylus and inkwell, proceeding to write that he would never share any information pertaining to the Illuminati to anyone not related to such information without the prior explicit consent of the man before him, signing it with a flourish.

Our Group believes in "Control is Freedom". I would like you to explain to me what YOU believe. Should a group of elect individuals be able to lead or control worldly events so that humanity can have some freedoms and prosper towards a greater future?
"Yes. However, the answer to your question varies vastly based upon the wording you selected. Should you not have added the final part about prospering, my answer would have remained the affirmative, but for different reasons entirely; these humans would do well to grow under the rule of another, as it would make them turn resentful, eventually leading to an uprising. Were this rebellion to succeed, the people would have gained a confidence that would assist in their growth; in the result of failure, the people could have been discarded, and we could start anew with a biologically similar, yet superior, model. Regardless, my answer is yes."

OOC: Would you like a recruitment topic?
That is up to you; I would not turn down one, but neither do I see a need to give you additional work.

What is your name? Codename or "Hero Name" works fine.

The Black Angel. Nobody calls me "Angel" for short..

"What experiences do you believe have prepared you for the responsibility of defending an entire realm?"

I was a member of O.C.E.A.N for a time. I've fought demons, super soldiers, villains, and have lived to see myself become something of a villain. I'm willing to do whatever is necessary to protect this world.... For.... Personal reasons.

"What are your skills? More specifically what can you offer to this groups talent pool?"

The Black Angel reaches in her jacket and grabs a pack of cigarettes. She opens it and takes one with her mouth, her free hand reaching for a lighter. Once the cigarette is lit, the Black Angel says.

Killing things... Discretely, efficiently, and effectively. My experience in the "Intelligence" world has allowed me to get in and out of anywhere without being noticed, while carrying out a complicated mission. Those are my best assets should this group accept me. Though I'm also "Intelligent" and capable of leading a team.... Under the right circumstance.

"Can you confirm that it has been made clear to you that you are free to depart form this group at any moment you wish without penalty. But should you ever endanger the secrecy of this group you will be hunted, and failure to survive will result in death?"

Yes.... Standard operating procedure in my line of work.

Our Group believes in "Control is Freedom" I would like you to explain to me what YOU believe. Should a group of elect individuals be able to lead or control worldly events so that humanity can have some freedoms and prosper towards a greater future?

I believe there is other worlds, or half worlds, between what man "Knows" and what man fears. Seen by few, felt by all, and with the power to destroy all of mankind, unless a few unfortunate souls can block the doorways between worlds. These people "Seeing" what others simply can not... Otherwise the very fabric upon which mankind has been built upon will collapse, by the very knowledge of what they've been told doesn't exist actually does.

So.... Yes... I believe a group of "Elect individuals", as you say, must protect humanity from what comes from these doorways, as well as humanity itself. As you know... What humanity doesn't know can't hurt, but it can certainly kill.... Though the fortunes of humanity hasn't always been a top priority of mine... I am a part of this world... And its destruction would obviously effect me... Adversely...

Yes! Comeback is needed!

Well.... Looking forward to working with everyone!

What is your name? Codename or "Hero Name" works fine.
Chris Mason, but a friend gave me the name

"What experiences do you believe have prepared you for the responsibility of defending an entire realm?"
I have very little experience with defending anything and I only had my powers for a short time. But I believe that my pass experiences have strengthen me to be able to complete the task.

"What are your skills? More specifically what can you offer to this groups talent pool?"
"I am a very fast boy. I can give this team the speed to get things done faster. I can cover a lot more ground then anyone in this team because I have the speed to do so.

"Can you confirm that it has been made clear to you that you are free to depart form this group at any moment you wish without penalty. But should you ever endanger the secrecy of this group you will be hunted, and failure to survive will result in death?"
" I accept these terms, but I have no reason to betray anyone. If I do decide to leave good luck catching up to me.

Our Group believes in "Control is Freedom" I would like you to explain to me what YOU believe. Should a group of elect individuals be able to lead or control worldly events so that humanity can have some freedoms and prosper towards a greater future?
I believe that yes. A group of people can and should be able to lead humanity as it would insure our future. Let's face it humans need to be lead. If someone doesn't keep them in check they will only destroy each other a lot faster. A leader a make sure that doesn't happen.

Rozmer Frey


"What experiences do you believe have prepared you for the responsibility of defending an entire realm?"
"That question seems a little redundant Archon. You and I have defended the Omniverse, one realm is a spec in that infinity. But I'll elaborate for the sake of other possible members.
I am the Void, the space between dimensions, given a physical form and like the Void I permeate the Omniverse. There is not a world past, present or future that I have not seen or defended."

"What are your skills? More specifically what can you offer to this groups talent pool?"
"Unhindered movement. There is not a chain that can bind me, no door that can keep me out and no dimension to which I am denied access. Couple that with the working and ever growing knowledge of every realm in the Omniverse and you get one hell of an asset to a team traveling through the vastness of the Void. I'm still a little unsure why you're having me answer these questions though Archon, you know all of this already."

"Can you confirm that it has been made clear to you that you are free to depart form this group at any moment you wish without penalty. But should you ever endanger the secrecy of this group you will be hunted, and failure to survive will result in death?"
"Resorting to threats now? Seems a little harsh, especially directed at me. I thought we already got this dick measuring contest out of the way? You know that I would never do anything to reveal the Omniverse to a normal being and I'll destroy those who would try to do so. I'm a little offended that would even think I'd do something like that."

Our Group believes in "Control is Freedom" I would like you to explain to me what YOU believe. Should a group of elect individuals be able to lead or control worldly events so that humanity can have some freedoms and prosper towards a greater future?
"Dabbling into some slippery territory aren't we now? To be honest that philosophy seems heavy handed and blunt for you. But I can see where you're coming from. It is our job to protect this realm, at all costs, but to let it flourish under its own merits. I want this world to survive and will do anything to preserve its existence within the Omniverse. THAT is the only way I can agree with this control philosophy. We preserve and interfere when necessary but otherwise we let the realm exist as it was intended to. Omniversal intervention can be just as detrimental as it is helpful. You and I have seen and experienced both sides of its power. Don't lose sight of that."
