An ancient order has been behind all of human history, patiently attempting to gain control of the world. Once called the Order of the Sun or the Order of Light, when the "New World" was being colonized there was a great split. One group believed in trying to control the world through physical means. They chose the name Illuminati and moved to the New World, seeing it as a land with the potential to be a super-power in the world. The other group believed in conquering the world through the mind and the spirit, and used religion and science to gain power. They call themselves Truth.

There are some people, however, who cannot be controlled. Some of them gained this ability through trauma, some through will or study, and some were merely born rebels. These uncontrollable people are called Indomitable Minds by those two groups, and are their enemies, as they stand in the way of their plans.

Truth has many methods which allow them to control the minds and spirits of the people. Their technology includes mind projection devices which let them project illusions into the minds of others, hologram emitters to show everyone what they wish and to hide the truth, and teleporters to move their people to where they need them. Many members of Truth also have psychic powers, some of them telepathy, which they can use to read and alter the minds of others. They are also the world's biggest cult, owning schools, museums, and research facilities, anywhere that knowledge is shared or gained, so that they may subtly influence the minds of those seeking knowledge in their favor.

All who follow them are entirely devoted to them, and follow the orders of those in charge without question. This is their greatest weakness, because if one knows what to look for, one can recognize their members by the symbols of their devotion, the Star necklaces, the orange robes, or even the way they react to the word "truth".

We are all Indomitable minds. For whatever reason we cannot be controlled by Truth, and therefore we are their enemies. We must band together to stand against them, to expose them to the world so that they can no longer secretly gain control. We live in an underground base which they cannot locate, the safest place we can be against a group with their power.

I was actually referring to overall character design. Powers are part of it, but you could technically make a character without them.

My character was sent to a Truth private highschool by his uncle (who's a high ranking member) and was discovered when they tried to brainwash him into following the rules unquestioningly. He had to run.

@TheUnknowable Oh I see, maybe he was a tribesman growing up with his people in a reservation near the cave where he later found out about his powers and was made one of the guardians of the cave.
