From the author's introduction: I have always loved conspiracy theories, especially ones about the Illuminati. The concept of numerous 'illuminated' conspiracies fighting amongst themselves, as popularized in the ILLUMINATUS! trilogy by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson and in the Illuminati and Illuminati: New World Order card games by Steve Jackson Games has everything needed for a good RPG campaign. To the best of my knowledge (apologies etc. if I'm wrong) this is the first such campaign for Risus. This is the first time I'm trying to write something for Risus, so please forgive anything in it that sucks.
