'Fanatical' captures their philosophy nicely, I think─their goal being nothing less than sole ownership of all the world's technology. Needless to say, they're more than willing to kill anyone who stands between them and what they want.

The Illuminati ("Blue Hand" in Japanese) is an organization of Goblins in Final Fantasy XIV under the leadership of Quickthinx Allthoughts. Possessing a militaristic zeal in seeking and hoarding knowledge, it is said their scholarship rivals that of the nation of Sharlayan. They are unscrupulous, willing to use stolen magitek weaponry to enforce their claims with disregard for others' lives.



Version 1.0Edit

The Illuminati were first mentioned by Mutamix Bubblypots, a former member who disagreed with his kin's mindset and shared knowledge of materia with the people of Eorzea.

Final Fantasy XIVEdit

The Illuminati besiege Brayflox Alltalks longstop to secure a cheese recipe in her possession. The dungeon instance Brayflox Longstop (Hard) involves driving out the Illuminati military forces.

Final Fantasy XIV: HeavenswardEdit

The Illuminati have set up a base camp at the abandoned Arkitechton in the Dravanian Hinterlands, and seem intent on monopolizing the Sharlayan relics in the abandoned city—complete with magitek weaponry. As the Arkitechton lies along the road between Idyllshire and the Dravanian Forelands, they present a considerable hazard to those traveling to the settlement.

The adventurer, Alphinaud, and Y'shtola are asked by Slowfix to help out a friend who got into trouble with the Illuminati. This turns out to be none other than Brayflox—again over the cheese recipe. The three help her drive off the assailants and guide her to Idyllshire.

They later initiate Project Alexander, summoning a primal into a discarded Sharalayan defense mecha as part of their goals of creating a walking citadel.

Spoilers end here.
