The Illuminati

The Illuminati are one of the big three cabals within the Secret World. The Illuminati are based in New York, but they have countless members in all parts of the worlds and they play a vital role on the Council of Venice.

Relationship with the keepers
In 2003, Illuminati rogue agents tried to render the Keepers powerless by spreading rumors about the organization and some of its members, such as Eloise Cortez. This caused the relationship between the Keepers and the Illuminati to worsen.

In 2013, Amber Skinner and Eloise were elected to become the new leaders of the Keepers. This caused some minor controversies since Amber was an Illuminati agent when she was recruited. After the election, Amber and Eloise spent the next year ensuring that the relationship between the keepers and the Illuminati improved.

In 2014, Amber left the Keepers per request of the Illuminati after the Keepers interfered in a mission that the Illuminati were involved in. This caused more friction between the two groups. This issue was later resolved and the relationship was restored.

Relationship with the Sanctuary
The Illuminati have given the Sanctuary Network their full support despite of problems between the Illuminati and the Keepers in the past. The cabal provides the Sanctuary with all the resources, money and technology that is requested from them. Stephen Cox represents the Illuminati with the Sanctuary Network.
