''GURPS Illuminati'' is a supplement for the GURPS tabletop role-playing game about secret societies, conspiracies, and conspiracy theories. It was published in 1992, the year before Steve Jackson Games sued the Secret Service, and it won the Origins award for best role-playing game supplement in 1993,〔(Origins Award Winners - 1992 )〕 the Origins Awards not being awarded in 1992.〔(Awards Listing ) for Steve Jackson Games〕 ==Contents== GURPS Illuminati is a book about all aspects of running and playing in role playing games involving conspiracies. As is obvious from the chapter headings, the writing is slightly whimsical, and the style of the book is reinforced by quotes from the supposed illuminati.〔(Wisdom of the Illuminati from GURPS Illuminati ) - Steve Jackson Games〕 ;Introduction : A basic introduction to ''GURPS'', conspiracy theories, and ''Gurps Illuminati'' ;Characters : A chapter on character creation and development in a campaign using ''GURPS Illuminati''.
