Race Name
They have been given many names over the course of the aeons they've been around. They were called Builders, Gods, Light Beings, Ancients, and Enlightened. Call them what you will, but they are truly the Illuminati. Both singular and plural. These far-flung Origin descendants have just recently decided to a legitimate interest in their surroundings . . . but why?
Physical Appearance
An Enlightened's appearance can be anything he or she wishes. There isn't a definite "must" to the appearance. Their most popular has been described as a robe-wearing figure with four arms, and either one or two eye(s) on an otherwise shadowy, non-existent face. They have sensory appendages on their heads which relates to their psionic abilities -- these vary in size, shape, length and texture -- and tails, which also have a great range of diversity. Most seem to have white tails with red tips -- three of these, but numbers may exceed nine. Wings are another attribute, which seem to depend on class, job, rank and skill, like the colours of their robes.
Abilities, Traits
Plasmagiks: A devastating, yet harmful ability known as 'Blood Magik'. It's creators, given the nickname 'Crimson Sages', created this deadly art in secret. The Brothers of Blood were/was a cult that met underground in Groznijy Grad. Membership started out being restricted to military scientists only, but eventually expanded to common-folks. This particular kind of magic was created to be a unique kind -- not even a 'proper' magic -- to compliment the impressive psionic power of the species. By doing that, they've created a weapon along with psionics that, while dangerous and brutal, will ensure their continuity.
Choson Wizard Evolutionary Battle Forms: Created during the Age of Cunning and Guile (1217-1918), in response to the full-scale-war effort against the Arcani, another Origin species, when it was learned that a war with a technological monopoly could not be fought using stealth alone. Using Plamagiks, and the Origin-given ability to mess with genetic material, the Choson Battle Armour Project was brought into its Alpha Phase in 1396 A.W. The Choson Battle System is a hybrid amalgam of Plasmagiks and manipulation of the versatile DNA of all Origin races. When an Illuminati is about to battle, they activate the system to adapt to the situation, and meet their combat needs to ensure they live to see the next day. Currently, there are four levels: Normal, Mega, Champion and Ultimate. There is a fifth level, Hyper, but that's reserved for the Father, His Favourite, the Elite, the Royal Guard, and others as appointed by Him or the Combined Council.
Origin Genetic Adaptation: Like all Origins, Illuminati may manipulate their genetic composition for whatever reason. Acts such as these are executed by the Science Sect after they are approved by the Combined Council of the Enlightened Realm.
Typical Lifespan
The longest recorded lifespan has been a little more than 1,000,000,000 years, but the average is 2/3rds of that.

Other information
Temporary request. Figured I'd try participating in the event since it's clearly been packed with hard work and thought. Don't want it to go to waste. Oh yeah! Yes, I'm making fun of conspiracy theories. Let's be honest -- they keep things interesting.
